Several 57Fe-labeled ferrocene derivatives and other cyclopentadienyliron complexes were studied by 57Fe and 13C NMR with respect to isotope-induced chemical shifts 1Delta12/13C(57Fe) and the magnitude and sign of coupling constants 1J(57Fe,13C) and 2J(57Fe,1H). The geometries of the complexes were optimized by DFT methods [B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p)] and chemical shifts (GIAO) and coupling constants were calculated at the same level of theory. The trends in calculated 57Fe nuclear shielding agree well with the experimental data and, in the case of coupling constants 1J(57Fe,13C) and 2J(57Fe,1H), both sign and magnitude are correctly reproduced.

Breast cancer is a disease with a high mortality rate worldwide; consequently, urgent achievements are required to design new greener drugs, leaving natural products and their derivatives as good options. A constant antineoplastic effect has been observed when the phytoproduct contains an indole fragment. Therefore, the objective of this work was to carry out a thoughtful computational study to perform an appropriate evaluation of four novel molecules of the class of the 3-indolylquinones as phytodrug candidates for antineoplastic activity: thymoquinone (TQ), 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone (DMQ), 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DMMQ), and 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone (DHQ).

Thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials with high photoluminescence quantum yields and a fast reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) are of the highest interest for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In the past decade, triaryl boranes with multiple resonance effect (MR) have captured significant attention. The efficiency of MR-TADF emitters strongly depends on small singlet-triplet energy gaps (ΔE), but also on large reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) rate constants (k).

The successful application of CAR-T cells in the treatment of hematologic malignancies has fundamentally changed cancer therapy. With increasing numbers of registered CAR-T cell clinical trials, efforts are being made to streamline and reduce the costs of CAR-T cell manufacturing while improving their safety. To date, all approved CAR-T cell products have relied on viral-based gene delivery and genomic integration methods.

: Vasopressin increases blood pressure through aquaporin-2-mediated water retention and is useful for managing hemodynamics after surgery. However, even after decades of study, clear clinical guidelines on doses and ideal use cases after cardiovascular surgery remain unclear. Here, the existing literature is synthesized on vasopressin use for cardiac surgeries and coupled with real-world clinical experience to outline a clearer clinical path for vasopressin use.

Aluminum (Al) can cause endocrine disruption in aquatic animals, but assessments of animal social behavior in neotropical teleost fish species with importance for Brazilian aquaculture have still not been addressed so far, which can further complete this ecotoxicological knowledge. In order to evaluate the social behavior and plasma cortisol concentration of fish exposed to Al, we performed a 1 h acute exposure with couples in three different experimental groups: control in neutral pH (CTL/n group), acid pH (pH/ac group), and aluminum in acid pH (Al/ac group; 2.0 mg L).
