Published: August 2005

This review covers the literature relating to asymmetric syntheses of pipecolic acid derivatives from 1997 to present. This review is organized according to the position and the degree of substitution of the piperidinic cycle. In a first section, syntheses of pipecolic acid itself are described. Then, successively, syntheses of C-3, C-4, C-5, C-6 substituted pipecolic acid derivatives are reported. Finally, syntheses of unsaturated pipecolic acid derivatives are presented before the last part devoted to the polysubstituted pipecolic acid derivatives.

A simple analytical workflow is described for gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric (GC-MS)-based chiral profiling of secondary amino acids (AAs) in biological matrices. The sample preparation is carried out directly in aqueous biological sample extracts and involves in situ heptafluorobutyl chloroformate (HFBCF) derivatization-liquid-liquid microextraction of nonpolar products into hexane phase followed by subsequent formation of the corresponding methylamides from the HFB esters by direct treatment with methylamine reagent solution. The (O, N) HFB-butoxycarbonyl-methylamide AA products (HFBOC-MA) are separated on a Chirasil-L-Val capillary column and quantitatively measured by GC-MS operated in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode.

Ascomycin (FK520) is a 23-membered macrolide antibiotic primarily produced by the Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. ascomyceticus. Structurally similar to tacrolimus and rapamycin, it serves as an effective immunosuppressant widely used in the treatment of rejection reactions after organ transplantation and certain autoimmune diseases.

Article Synopsis
  • Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare genetic disorder linked to abnormal lysine metabolism, with current diagnostics relying on unreliable biomarkers that are unstable and technically challenging to analyze.
  • A new method was developed using LC-MS/MS to quantify two alternative biomarkers (2-OPP and 6-oxoPIP) from urine and plasma samples, which showed excellent stability and linearity in testing.
  • This validated method offers a promising routine diagnostic tool for identifying and monitoring PDE in patients, potentially improving clinical outcomes.

Feed restriction is a common nutritional practice in rabbit farming; however, decreased feed intake can also signal potential digestive disorders at an early stage. This study endeavors to investigate the impact of feed restriction on selected productive traits and the urinary metabolome of juvenile rabbits across diverse genetic backgrounds. Our objective is to identify potential biomarkers capable of detecting periods of fasting.

Deficiency of cofactors for various enzymes can lead to inborn errors of metabolism. These conditions frequently occur as seizures, which lead to permanent brain damage. Newborn screening for biomarkers associated with these disorders can help in early detection and treatment.
