Synthesis and characterization of new thiosemicarbazones derived from natural aldehydes (1-9) have been investigated in order to develop a research program aimed at the development of compounds with antiviral, antibacterial, and antitumor properties. These substances contain both a chain with N and S nucleophilic centers with tuberculostatic activity, and an alkyl or terpenic moiety. In addition, a few nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes (10-18), derived also from the previously studied ligands, were synthesized and characterized by means of NMR and IR techniques. The trans-2-octenal N(1)-phenylthiosemicarbazone and its nickel complex were also characterized by X-ray diffractometry. Biological studies, performed with some of these compounds, have involved both inhibition of cell proliferation and apoptosis tests in vitro on human leukemia cell line U937 to deepen our knowledge on the way these substances interfere with biological processes in leukemic cells.

Aging is a complex process characterized by biological decline and a wide range of molecular alterations to cells, including changes to DNA methylation. In this study, we used a male-specific epigenetic marker of aging to build an epigenetic predictor that measures long-term androgen exposure in sheep and mice (median absolute error of 4.3 and 1.

Multimode luminescent materials exhibit tunable photon emissions under different excitation or stimuli channels, endowing them high encoding capacity and confidentiality for anti-counterfeiting and encryption. Achieving multimode luminescence into a stable single material presents a promising but remains a challenge. Here, the downshifting/upconversion emissions, color-tuning persistent luminescence (PersL), temperature-dependent multi-color emissions, and hydrochromism are integrated into Er ions doped CsNaYbCl nanocrystals (NCs) by leveraging shallow defect levels and directed energy migration.

People with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have a greater risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases, like Alzheimer's disease, in later life. Exogenous ketone supplements containing the ketone body β-hydroxybutyrate (β-OHB) may be a strategy to protect the brain as β-OHB can support cerebral metabolism and promote neuronal plasticity via expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).

A photoredox-promoted cascade glycosylation/cyclization reaction of 2-isocyanobiaryls and glycosyl NHP esters was established for the synthesis of nonclassical heteroaryl C-glycosides. This methodology is characterized by an exceedingly simple reaction system, high diastereoselectivity, and good functional group tolerance. In contrast to traditional strategies, this innovative approach circumvents the need for high temperature, transition metal, and photocatalyst, offering an environmentally friendly and efficient protocol.

Background: Plumage coloration is a distinctive trait in ducks, and the Liancheng duck, characterized by its white plumage and black beak and webbed feet, serves as an excellent subject for such studies. However, academic comprehension of the genetic mechanisms underlying duck plumage coloration remains limited. To this end, the Liancheng duck genome (GCA_039998735.
