A clean and efficient method for the oxidative transformations of primary carboxamides to one-carbon dehomologated nitriles using the combination of o-iodoxybenzoic acid and tetraethylammonium bromide has been developed. This method exhibits a broad scope and is expected to be of great utility in organic synthesis.

JNK3, a brain-specific stress-activated protein kinase, plays a critical role in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis through phosphorylation of Tau and APP. This study aimed to develop selective JNK3 inhibitors based on a pyrazole scaffold, focusing on (E)-1-(2-aminopyrimidin-4-yl)-4-styryl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide derivatives. Through systematic structural modifications and extensive SAR analysis, we identified compounds 24a and 26a as highly potent JNK3 inhibitors, with IC values of 12 and 19 nM, respectively.

Renal proximal tubules are a primary site of injury in metabolic diseases. In obese patients and animal models, proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs) display dysregulated lipid metabolism, organelle dysfunctions, and oxidative stress that contribute to interstitial inflammation, fibrosis and ultimately end-stage renal failure. Our research group previously pointed out AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) decline as a driver of obesity-induced renal disease.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The rapid development of highly effective vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 has altered the trajectory of the pandemic, and antiviral therapeutics have further reduced the number of COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths. Coronaviruses are enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses that encode various structural and non-structural proteins, including those critical for viral RNA replication and evasion from innate immunity.

Article Synopsis
  • A study evaluated a new long-lasting pain relief medication called QP001, compared to a placebo, to determine its effectiveness and safety for patients after abdominal surgery.
  • Conducted across 23 centers, 255 patients were administered either QP001 or placebo, and the results showed QP001 significantly reduced pain intensity for up to 24 hours post-surgery.
  • The trial indicated that QP001 also reduced the need for morphine and increased patient satisfaction, with no significant difference in adverse events compared to placebo.
