Novel derivatives of 1, 8-naphthyridine were synthesized from 7-amino-2-hydroxy-4-morpholinomethyl-1, 8-naphthyridine. The ability of the synthesized compounds to inhibit isoproterenol(ISO)-induced phosphorylation of phospholamban (PLB) was assessed. Their ability to block both beta(1) and beta(2) receptors almost completely abolished all ISO effects on phosphorylation of PLB. Analogues with either a 7-hydroxy-2-N-ethoxycarbonylpiperazine or a 7-hydroxy-2-piperazine substituent, designated as 6 and 9 respectively, showed a higher affinity for beta(1) receptor than that of the methoxy derivatives 12 and 13. However, treatment with 30 microM 9 and 1mM 13 lead to comparable levels of PLB phosphorylation. The reduction to 6-amino derivatives 10 and 17 led to compounds possessing beta(2) receptor blocking properties. The ability of the synthesized compounds to inhibit forskolin-stimulated cAMP production was also studied. Together, these results suggest that the 1, 8-naphthyridine parent structure can be modified, to produce compounds with increased activity whose effect in rat appears to be more clearly related to antagonism of beta(1)-rather than beta(2)-adrenergic receptors.

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.

Two-dimensional (2D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with designable pore structures can be synthesized under the guidance of topology diagrams. Among the five existing edge-transitive topological nets, topology is considered a fine candidate for constructing COFs with ultramicropores. However, all of the reported COFs with topology need the use of -symmetric monomers, which are limited in compound type and difficult to synthesize.

A series of new (donor)₂-donor-π-acceptor (D2-D-π-A) and (acceptor)₂-donor-π-acceptor (A2-D-π-A) organic photosensitizers based on the framework of (Z)-2-cyano-3-(5-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)thiophen-2-yl)acrylic acid have been synthesized and characterized. By incorporating groups with different electron-donating or withdrawing abilities, such as dibenzothiophene (DBT), dibenzofuran (DBF), and triazine (TA), into the triphenylamine segment, their photophysical properties have been regulated.  Theoretical calculations were used to explore how various donor-acceptor combinations influence their hydrogen production performance.

Key Laboratory of Spine and Spinal Cord Injury Repair and Regeneration of Ministry of Education, Department of Orthopedics, Tongji Hospital affiliated to Tongji University, School of Life Science and Technology, Tongji University, Shanghai, China.

Stem cell-derived spinal cord organoids (SCOs) have revolutionised the study of spinal cord development and disease mechanisms, offering a three-dimensional model that recapitulates the complexity of native tissue. This review synthesises recent advancements in SCO technology, highlighting their role in modelling spinal cord morphogenesis and their application in neurodegenerative disease research. We discuss the methodological breakthroughs in inducing regional specification and cellular diversity within SCOs, which have enhanced their predictive ability for drug screening and their relevance in mimicking pathological conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases and neuromuscular disorders.
