Mn(III) porphyrin (MnP) holds the promise of addressing the emerging challenges associated with Gd-based clinical MRI contrast agents (CAs), namely, Gd-related adverse effect and decreasing sensitivity at high clinical magnetic fields. Two complementary strategies for developing new MnPs as Gd-free CAs with optimized biocompatibility were established to improve relaxivity or clearance rate. MnPs with distinct and tunable pharmacokinetic properties can consequently be constructed for different in vivo applications at clinical field of 3 T.

Comprehensive global proteome profiling that is amenable to high throughput processing will broaden our understanding of complex biological systems. Here, we evaluated two leading mass spectrometry techniques, Data Independent Acquisition (DIA) and Tandem Mass Tagging (TMT), for extensive protein abundance profiling. DIA provides label-free quantification with a broad dynamic range, while TMT enables multiplexed analysis using isobaric tags for efficient cross-sample comparisons.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) precipitates a neuroinflammatory cascade, with the NLRP3 inflammasome emerging as a critical mediator. This review scrutinizes the complex activation pathways of the NLRP3 inflammasome by underscoring the intricate interplay between calcium signaling, mitochondrial disturbances, redox imbalances, lysosomal integrity, and autophagy. It is hypothesized that a combination therapy approach-integrating NF-κB pathway inhibitors with NLRP3 inflammasome antagonists-holds the potential to synergistically dampen the inflammatory storm associated with TBI.

Tigecycline is a last-resort antibiotic to treat complicated infections caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens, while the emergence of plasmid-mediated tet(X) family severely compromises its clinical efficacy. Novel antimicrobial strategies not limited to new antibiotics in pharmaceutical pipeline are urgently needed. Herein, we reveal the metabolic disparities between tet(X)-negative and -positive E.

This study explores the synergistic effects of linoleic acid (LA) oxidation on the aggregation behavior and structural properties of wheat gluten (WG). Using lipoxygenase to induce LA oxidation, it was observed that this process significantly influenced WG's viscoelasticity and structural characteristics. Specifically, LA oxidation enhanced WG's viscoelastic properties while reducing its instantaneous elastic and recovery deformations.

We present a mild and efficient method for the arylation of N-H heteroarenes using a low-loading Pd/keYPhos catalyst (0.8 mol%). This approach employs inexpensive and structurally diverse aryl chlorides as electrophiles in reactions with indoles, pyrroles, and carbazole, enabling the construction of a wide range of -arylated products.
