In the title compound, {[Zn(C(19)H(17)N(5)O(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](NO(3))(2)}(n), the Zn(II) cation is located at an inversion centre within a slightly distorted octahedron, ligated by four N atoms from four N(2),N(6)-bis[(pyridin-3-yl)methyl]pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide (L) ligands occupying a plane about the Zn(II) atom with the two water O atoms perpendicular to that. In the complex molecule, the bidentate bridging L ligands display helical R and S conformers, and link the Zn(II) cations into a one-dimensional centrosymmetric double-chain structure containing 32-membered rings. The nitrate anions reside in these rings and are involved in multiple N-H...O hydrogen-bond interactions. On excitation at 390 nm, the title compound displays a strong blue emission centred at 449 nm. Investigation of the thermal stability shows that the network structure is stable up to 420 K.

Background: Curcumin is a polyphenolic compound derived from the food spice turmeric that has received interest from the medical and scientific world for its role in the management of several conditions. Clinical studies, in humans, have shown that ingested Curcumin is safe even at high doses (12 g/day), but it has poor bioavailability primarily due to poor absorption and rapid metabolism and elimination. Several strategies have been implemented to improve the bioavailability of Curcumin, for example, the combination of piperine in a complex with Curcumin, or the usage of formulations with phospholipid or liposomal complexes.

After a peripheral nerve injury, Schwann cells (SCs), the myelinating glia of the peripheral nervous system, convert into repair cells that foster axonal regrowth, and then remyelinate or re-ensheath regenerated axons, thereby ensuring functional recovery. The efficiency of this mechanism depends however on the time needed for axons to regrow. Here, we show that ablation of histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) in SCs accelerates the regrowth of sensory axons and sensory function recovery.
