beta-L-ddAMP-bis(tbutylSATE) is a potent inhibitor of HBV replication with an EC50 = 0.1 microM. Following a 0- to 72-hrs exposure of human hepatocytes to a 10 microM [2',3'-3H] beta-L-ddAMP-bis(tbutylSATE), the pharmacologically active beta-L-ddATP was the predominant metabolite attaining a concentration of 268.53 +/- 107.97 pmoles/10(6) cells at 2 hrs. In Hep-G2 cell, beta-L-ddATP accounted for 146.8 +/- 29.8 pmoles/10(6) cells at 2 hrs with an half life of approximately 5.4 hrs. This study reveals that extensive intracellular concentrations of beta-L-ddATP after incubation of cells to the parent drug is accounting for its potent antiviral activity.

It has been well accumulated that G-quadruplex (G4-DNA) has great anticancer relevance, and various heterocyclic moieties have been synthesized and examined as potent G4-DNA binders with promising anticancer activity. Here, we have synthesized a series of naphthalimide-triazole-coumarin conjugates by substituting various amines and further examine their anticancer activity against 60 human cancer cell lines at 10 μM. One and five dose concentration results reveal low values of MG-MID GI for compounds including (3.

Finding ways to produce dense and smooth perovskite films with negligible defects is vital for achieving high-efficiency perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, we aim to enhance the quality of the perovskite films through the utilization of a multifunctional additive in the perovskite anti-solvent, a strategy referred to as anti-solvent additive engineering. Specifically, we introduce ortho-substituted-4'-(4,4″-di-tert-butyl-1,1':3',1″-terphenyl)-graphdiyne (o-TB-GDY) as an AAE additive, characterized by its sp/sp-cohybridized and highly π-conjugated structure, into the anti-solvent.

Buprenorphine is an agonist at the mu opioid receptor (MOR) and antagonist at the kappa (KOR) and delta (DOR) receptors and a nociceptin receptor (NOR) ligand. Buprenorphine has a relatively low intrinsic efficacy for G-proteins and a long brain and MOR dwell time. Buprenorphine ceiling on respiratory depression has theoretically been related multiple factors such as low intrinsic efficacy at MOR, binding to six-transmembrane MOR and interactions in MOR/NOR heterodimers.
