The enantiomeric ratios of various free and glycosidically bound monoterpene polyols in musts of the aromatic grapes Vitis vinifera L. cvs. Morio Muscat and Muscat Ottonel were determined by means of enantioselective multidimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Reference compounds of defined stereochemistry were synthesized and permitted the unequivocal determination of the elution order of the target compounds on chiral columns with modified cyclodextrins as stationary phases. It could be shown for the first time that the linalool-derived polyol 3,7-dimethylocta-1,7-dien-3,6-diol occurs predominately as the (3S,6S)-configured stereoisomer, providing evidence that this compound is generated by an enzymatic process in grape berries. The involvement of a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase in the oxidative metabolism of monoterpenes in grapes is dicussed.

In this study, we explore the structural intricacies of cellulose, a polymer composed of glucose monomers arranged in a linear chain, primarily investigated through solid-state NMR techniques. Specifically, we employ low-field proton nuclear magnetic resonance (H-NMR) to delve into the diverse hydrogen atom types within the cellulose molecule. The low-field H-NMR technique allows us to discern these hydrogen atoms based on their distinct chemical shifts, providing valuable insights into the various functional groups present in cellulose.

Bioenergetic therapy based on tumor glucose metabolism is emerging as a promising therapeutic modality. To overcome the poor bioavailability and toxicity of arenobufagin (ArBu), a MOF-derived intelligent nanosystem, ZIAMH, was designed to facilitate energy deprivation by simultaneous interventions of glycolysis, OXPHOS and TCA cycle. Herein, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 was loaded with ArBu and indocyanine green, encapsulated within metal-phenolic networks for chemodynamic therapy and hyaluronic acid modification for tumor targeting.

In order to investigate the impact of hot air (HA) treatment on the sugars and volatiles in postharvest nectarine fruit, nectarines were treated with HA at 40 °C for 4 h and stored at 1 °C for 35 days. Changes of sugars, free and glycosidically bound volatiles, β-glucosidase (β-Glu) activity, and the gene expression of UGT (UDP-glucosyltransferase) in nectarine fruit were determined. The results showed that compared with CK, HA treatment delayed the firmness decline of 48.

Background: In the fifth National Wilms Tumor Study, patients received vincristine and dactinomycin (VA) without radiation for stage I focal anaplastic Wilms tumor (FAWT) and VA plus doxorubicin (DD4A) and radiation for stage II-IV FAWT. Four-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) for stage I FAWT were 67.5% and 88.
