Condensation of carminomycin or daunorubicin with glutaric dialdehyde in the presence of NaBH3CN yielded 3'-deamino-3'-piperidinocarminomycin or 3'-deamino-3'-piperidinodaunorubicin and corresponding (13-R, S)-dihydroderivatives. To prepare similar derivatives of 14-hydroxycarminomycin or doxorubicin, 13-dimethylketals of 14-bromocarminomycin or 13-bromodaunorubicin were used in the reaction of reductive alkylation with glutaric or glycolic dialdehyde to give 3'-deamino-3'-piperidino- or 3'-deamino-3'-morpholino derivatives of 13-dimethylketals of 14-bromocarminomycin or daunorubicin, respectively. After deblocking and subsequent hydrolysis of these compounds 3'-deamino-3'-piperidino- and 3'-deamino-3'-morpholino derivatives of 13-hydroxycarminomycin or doxorubicin were prepared. Reduction of the antibiotic derivatives under mass spectrometry conditions was demonstrated.

Background: Therapeutic efficacy studies (TESs) and detection of molecular markers of drug resistance are recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) to monitor the efficacy of artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT). This study assessed the trends of molecular markers of artemisinin resistance and/or reduced susceptibility to lumefantrine using samples collected in TES conducted in Mainland Tanzania from 2016 to 2021.
Methods: A total of 2,015 samples were collected during TES of artemether-lumefantrine at eight sentinel sites (in Kigoma, Mbeya, Morogoro, Mtwara, Mwanza, Pwani, Tabora, and Tanga regions) between 2016 and 2021.

Background: Knowledge regarding the health impacts of daily eating frequency (DEF) and nighttime fasting duration (NFD) on mortality is very limited.
Objective: This study aimed to examine whether DEF and NFD are associated with CVD and all-cause mortality.
Methods: This was a prospective cohort study of a nationally representative sample from the United States, including 30,464 adults who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003-2014.

Background And Objectives: To establish normative anatomic measurements of lumbar segmental angulation (SA) and disk space height (DSH) in relation to neuroforaminal dimensions (NFDs), and to uncover the influence of patient demographic and anthropometric characteristics on SA, DSH, and NFDs.
Methods: NFDs, SA, and anterior, middle, and posterior DSH were measured using computed tomography of 969 patients. NFDs were defined as sagittal anterior-to-posterior width, foraminal height, and area.

Purpose: To compare measurements of lumbar neuroforaminal dimensions (NFD) derived from plain film radiography (PFR) and computed tomography (CT) of young patients without spinal pathology.
Methods: We analyzed 213 patients between 18 and 35 years of age without spinal pathology who received PFR and CT within one year of each other. NFD were defined as foraminal height, sagittal anterior-to-posterior width, and area.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC) evolves due to mutations in the Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor gene. Although the loss of VHL enables survival and proliferation of CCRCC cells, it is also expected to introduce vulnerabilities that may be exploited for therapeutics discovery. To this end, we developed a high-throughput screen to identify small molecules derived from plants, microorganisms, and marine organisms to which CCRCC cells are sensitive.
