Article Abstract

Phencyclidine (1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine, CAS 956-90-1, PCP) has shown analgesic effects. Some of its derivatives have been synthesized and their biological properties were studied. Since a hydroxyl group has been added to the position 2 of the cyclohexane ring of PCP, this compound would be more hydrophilic than PCP. This compound was synthesized using a different and improved method with a higher yield. Its analgesic effect was studied using the tail-flick test on rats and was compared with that of ketamine (CAS 1867-66-9). The results showed that 2-hydroxyphencyclidine can increase tail-flick latencies as compared to the control group and indicate that the maximum analgesic effect of this compound occurs 2-5 min after its injection while the effect of ketamine is observed 10-25 min after injection.

Sulfate and sulfonate compounds are extensively used as anionic surfactants in personal care products (PCPs), which might pose adverse potential to human health. However, available research mostly identified certain subsets of sulfated and sulfonated surfactants based on target analysis. In this study, we developed a comprehensive nontarget strategy for identification of sulfated and sulfonated surfactants in PCPs using UHPLCHRMS supplemented by an in-lab R script based on characteristic fragment ions and sulfur isotope patterns.

We investigated the impacts of personal care products (PCPs) on dermal exposure to semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), including phthalates, organophosphate esters, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), ultraviolet filters, and p-phenylenediamines, through an experiment from volunteers, explored the impact mechanisms of PCP ingredients on dermal exposure, and predicted the PCP effects on SVOC concentrations in human serum using machine learning. After applying PCPs, namely lotion, baby oil, sunscreen, and blemish balm, the dermal adsorption of SVOCs increased significantly by 1.63 ± 0.

Introduction: Phencyclidine, a dissociative anesthetic with hallucinogenic effects, is commonly abused as a recreational drug. Phencyclidine analogs are compounds produced by substitutions of the phenyl and piperidine rings of phencyclidine. Illegal use of phencyclidine and its analogs has symptoms such as addiction, confusion, and increased tendencies toward violence.

Biosynthesis of lactacystin as a proteasome inhibitor.

Commun Chem

Graduate School of Engineering, Hokkaido University, N13-W8, Kita-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido, 060-8628, Japan.

Lactacystin is an irreversible proteasome inhibitor isolated from Streptomyces lactacystinicus. Despite its importance for its biological activity, the biosynthesis of lactacystin remains unknown. In this study, we identified the lactacystin biosynthetic gene cluster by gene disruption and heterologous expression experiments.
