A circular dichroic (CD) excition chirality method based on host-guest chiral recognition has been developed to determine the absolute configuration of carboxylic acids with an alpha-stereogenic center; an amide C = O-->Zn coordination, identified by infrared spectroscopy and computations, is involved in this complexation.

Malignant gliomas are heterogeneous tumors, mostly incurable, arising in the central nervous system (CNS) driven by genetic, epigenetic, and metabolic aberrations. Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1/2) enzymes are predominantly found in low-grade gliomas and secondary high-grade gliomas, with IDH1 mutations being more prevalent. Mutant-IDH1/2 confers a gain-of-function activity that favors the conversion of a-ketoglutarate (α-KG) to the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG), resulting in an aberrant hypermethylation phenotype.

Background: The intrauterine device (IUD) is a highly effective form of long-acting reversible contraception, widely recognized for its convenience and efficacy. Despite its benefits, many patients report moderate to severe pain during and after their IUD insertion procedure. Furthermore, reports suggest significant variability in pain control medications, including no adequate pain medication.

Background: To determine the efficacy of 4-phenylbutyrate (4-PB) or sodium 4-phenylbutyrate (SPB) in treating diseases caused by genetic mutations.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE for studies of patients with genetic mutations treated with 4-PB or SPB. All data were tested using RStudio software.
