C7-Substituted 2-hydroxyisoquinoline-1,3-diones inhibit the strand transfer of HIV integrase (IN) and the reverse-transcriptase-associated ribonuclease H (RNH). Hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B polymerase shares a similar active site fold to RNH and IN, suggesting that N-hydroxyimides could be useful inhibitor scaffolds of HCV via targeting the NS5B. Herein we describe the design, chemical synthesis, replicon and biochemical assays, and molecular docking of C-6 or C-7 aryl substituted 2-hydroxyisoquinoline-1,3-diones as novel HCV inhibitors. The synthesis involved an improved and clean cyclization method, which allowed the convenient preparation of various analogs. Biological studies revealed that the C-6 analogs, a previously unknown chemotype, consistently inhibit both HCV replicon and recombinant NS5B at low micromolar range. Molecular modeling studies suggest that these inhibitors may bind to the NS5B active site.

The study aimed to develop a superhydrophobic coating on the aluminium alloy 2024-T3 surface. The desired surface roughness and low surface energy were achieved with SiO nanoparticles, synthesised via the Stöber method and modified with alkyl silane (AS) or perfluoroalkyl silane (FAS). To enhance particle adhesion to the alloy substrate, nanoparticles were incorporated into a hybrid sol-gel coating composed of tetraethyl orthosilicate, methyl methacrylate, and 3-methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane.

Our previous research discovered that myricetin could effectively inhibit the formation of heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs) in cantonese baked foods by trapping phenylacetaldehyde to form adducts. However, the structure and biological activity of these adducts were still unknown. In this study, we identified two myricetin-phenylacetaldehyde adducts from cantonese mooncakes, BYQ-2 and BYQ-3, using pre-HPLC.

Nitrogen-containing organic compounds (NOCs) in frost serve as a critical pathway for atmospheric nitrogen deposition, significantly impacting the biogeochemical cycles of nitrogen. However, the molecular characteristics of NOCs in frost and their deposition fluxes are scarcely studied. In this work, frost samples, collected in rural Northeast China in the winter of 2023, were analyzed using nontargeted ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Orbitrap MS) to reveal their content in nitrogen-containing organic compounds (NOCs) and explore their wet deposition fluxes.

In this study, novel 2-styrylquinoline derivatives possessing a planar aromatic system and a flexible side chain with an amino substituent were designed and synthesized as DNA-intercalating antitumor agents. The cytotoxic activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated against four cancer cell lines including MCF-7 (breast cancer cells), A549 (lung epithelial cancer cells), HCT116 (colon cancer cells) and normal cell line L929 (mouse fibroblast cell line). The results displayed that the anti-cancer activity of the target quinolines is sensitive to the lipophilic nature of the C-6 and C-7 quinoline substituents.
