Objective: To study the microsatellite abnormalities of the aromatic amine exposure-associated transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) and sporadic TCC of urinary bladder, and to evaluate the potential of microsatellite analysis on detection of this diseases.
Methods: Based on our previous investigations, 5 microsatellite markers (D17S695, D9S162, D3S1295, DBH and D3S1234) that had high frequencies of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in sporadic TCC, were selected for analysis with the bladder lesions derived from 16 patients with aromatic amine exposure history. The microsatellite analysis with urine sediments from the post-operated patients was also carried out.
Results: There was at least one informative marker out of the 5 microsatellite foci showed polymorphism in the DNA derived from 16 patients examined. Within 87.50% (14/16) patients, LOH was detected in the bladder lesions at least with one microsatellite marker. The LOH frequency of D3S1295 was higher in occupational TCC patients than that in sporadic TCC patients. The diagnostic accordance rate of patients showed LOH in at least one microsatellite marker with patients diagnosed by pathology was 81.25% (13/16). In the urine sediments from 8 TCC post-operated patients, LOH was found at least with one microsatellite marker.
Conclusion: There could be a different LOH pattern in aromatic amine exposure-associated TCC, and genes near D3S1295 might play a role in the occupational exposure-associated TCC.

We have realized a cathodic deoxygenative alkylation between nitro(hetero)arenes and organic halides, employing bis(pinacolato)diboron (Bpin) and LiCl as additives to trap and stabilize the generated alkyl radicals and carbanions, thereby facilitating efficient N-O cleavage and selective C-N bond formation. The protocol offers an economical method for the efficient synthesis of multiple aromatic(hetero) amines, without the need for reactive reductants and the exclusion of air and moisture. Notably, the protocol is distinguished by scalability, broad functional group compatibility, and safe and mild conditions, demonstrating practicality in the synthesis and late-stage modification of various bioactive compounds.

Background/purpose: Osseointegration potential is greatly depended on the interaction between bone cells and dental implant surface. Since zirconia ceramic has a bioinert surface, functionalization of the surface with an organic compound allylamine was conducted to overcome its drawback of minimal interaction with the surrounding bone.
Materials And Methods: The zirconia surface was initially treated with argon glow discharge plasma (GDP), then combined with amine plasma at three different conditions of 50-W, 75-W and 85-W, to prepare the final samples.

In the past few years, the direct activation of organohalides by ligated boryl radicals has emerged as a potential synthetic tool for cross-coupling reactions. In most existing methods, ligated boryl radicals are accessed from NHC-boranes or amine-boranes. In this work, we report a new photocatalytic platform by modular assembly of readily available amines and diboron esters to access a library of ligated boryl radicals for reaction screening, thus enabling the cross-coupling of organohalides and alkenes including both activated and unactivated ones for C(sp)-C(sp) bond formation by using the assembly of DABCO A1 and BNepB1.

Despite advances in the field, a platform for the direct, selective C-H amination of electronically diverse (hetero)arenes, particularly electron-deficient (hetero)arenes, remains an unaddressed fundamental challenge. In addition, many (hetero)arenes present difficulty in common selective pre-functionalization reactions, such as halogenation , or metal-catalyzed borylation and silylation .

Various symmetric and asymmetric imines were synthesized using the novel amine oxidase, obtained as variants of d-amino acid oxidase (pkDAO) from porcine kidney (Y228L/R283G) and (I230A/R283G). Active primary imines produced as intermediates in the oxidation of methylbenzylamine (MBA) derivatives were trapped by aliphatic, aromatic amines and diamines as nucleophiles forming new imines. ()-Fluoro-MBA was the best substrate for symmetric imine synthesis, providing almost stoichiometric conversion (100 mM) and achieving nearly 100% yield.
