We found a concise route to the Trost A-ring precursor enyne for synthesizing 2alpha-alkylated 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1) from D-glucose. The enynes were coupled with the 20-epi-CD ring part to study the effect of the double modification of 2alpha-substitution and 20-epimerization upon biological activities of 1. The novel three analogues of 2alpha-alkyl- and four analogues of 2alpha-(omega-hydroxyalkyl)-20-epi-1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (5b-d and 6a-d) showed higher binding affinity for vitamin D receptor (VDR) and more potent activity in induction of HL-60 cell differentiation than those of the natural hormone 1.

Nucleotide-binding and leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins are essential intracellular immune receptors in both animal and plant kingdoms. Sensing of pathogen-derived signals induces oligomerization of NLR proteins, culminating in the formation of higher-order protein complexes known as resistosomes in plants. The NLR resistosomes play a pivotal role in mediating the plant immune response against invading pathogens.

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation and migration [1]. It forms a homodimer or heterodimer with other ErbB receptor family members to activate downstream signaling. Emerging evidence indicates that the EGFR activity and downstream signaling are regulated by other proteins except its family members during tumorigenesis.

Background And Aims: Alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) is one of the leading causes of severe liver disease with limited pharmacological treatments for alcohol-related steatohepatitis (ASH). CD44, a glycoprotein mainly expressed in immune cells, has been implicated in multiple inflammatory diseases but has never been studied in the ALD context. We therefore studied its contribution to ASH development in mice and its expression in ALD patients.
