Keeping options open: the new and mild title reaction involving indoles selectively furnishes 1 and 2 with the aid of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). The method represents the first example of a copper-catalyzed α arylation of α-amino carbonyl substrates leading to α-aryl α-imino and α-aryl α-oxo carbonyl compounds using a C-H oxidation strategy.

Senecavirus A (SVA) is a newly emerging picornavirus associated with swine vesicular lesions and neonatal mortality, threatening the global pig industry. Despite sustained efforts, the molecular mechanisms of SVA pathogenesis have not yet been fully elucidated. Here, we demonstrate for the first time that SVA infection can induce complete mitophagy in host cells, which depends on SVA replication.

We study for the first time whether triphenylphosphonium (TPP) moiety can improve cellular delivery and redox properties of amphipathic cationic peptides based on YRFK/YrFK cell-penetrating and cytoprotective motif. TPP moiety was found to increase reducing activity of both stereoisomeric peptides in solution and on electrode surface in association with TPP-mediated intramolecular interactions. Among TPP-conjugated peptides, newly synthesized TPP3-YrFK featured both increased antioxidant efficacy and proteolytic resistance.

Compelling evidence has demonstrated that macroautophagy/autophagy plays an important role in regulating multiple steps of metastatic cascades; however, the precise role of autophagy in metastasis remains unclear. This study demonstrates that autophagy inhibition induced by MCOLN1/TRPML1 suppresses cancer metastasis by evoking the ROS-mediated TP53/p53 pathway. First, we found that MCOLN1-mediated autophagy inhibition not only profoundly inhibits both migration and invasion in malignant melanoma and glioma cell lines , but also suppresses melanoma metastasis .

Unlabelled: Leukocytospermia is a physiologic condition defined as human semen with a leukocyte count of >1 x 10 cells/ml that is often correlated with male infertility. Moreover, bacteriospermia has been associated with leukocytospermia ultimately leading to male infertility. We have found that semen samples with >1 x 10/ml leukocytes and/or bacteriospermia have oxidative predominance as evidenced by augmented protein carbonyl and lipid peroxidation status of the semen which is implicated in sperm dysfunction.

In this paper the reactivity of K15H[Zr(α2-P2W17O61)2]·25H2O (1), a Zr(IV)-substituted Wells-Dawson polyoxometalate, is examined towards a series of Gly-Aa, Aa-Gly or Aa-Ser dipeptides, in which the nature and the size of the Aa amino acid side chain were varied. The rate of peptide bond hydrolysis, determined by (1)H NMR experiments, in Gly-Aa dipeptides is strongly dependent on the molecular volume and the chemical structure of the Aa side chain. When the volume of the aliphatic side chain of the Aa residue in Gly-Aa increased, a clear decrease in the hydrolysis rate was observed.
