Homogeneous tritylation of cellulose in 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (AmimCl) ionic liquid with triphenylmethy chloride as regents, pyridine or 1-butylimidazole (BIM) as base was investigated, and subsequent acetylation of the 6-O-functionalized products was further studied. The structure of products was analyzed by FTIR and (13)C NMR spectroscopy and base influences on the structure were discussed as well. The solution with pyridine as base underwent heterogeneous-homogeneous-heterogeneous process and the obtained trityl cellulose (TC) had organized structure with trityl group located completely at C-6 position of cellulose with maximum DS(trityl) of nearly 1. In the case of BIM as base, the solution was homogeneous for the whole reaction, but the highest DS(trityl) was about 0.22, with trityl group located not only at position 6 but also partially at position 2. Subsequent acetylation of the TC led to products with a preferred functionalization of the unprotected secondary OH-groups.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by progressive and incurable airflow obstruction and chronic inflammation. Both TGF-β1 and CXCL8 have been well described as fundamental to COPD progression. DNA methylation and histone acetylation, which are well-understood epigenetic mechanisms regulating gene expression, are associated with COPD progression.

Olanzapine (OLZ) is widely used in the treatment of schizophrenia, and its metabolic side effects have garnered significant attention in recent years. Despite this, the specific side effects of OLZ and the underlying mechanisms remain inadequately understood. To address this gap, zebrafish (Danio rerio) were exposed to OLZ at concentrations of 35.

The 3-methylglutaconic aciduria (3-MGA-uria) syndromes comprise a heterogeneous group of inborn errors of metabolism defined biochemically by detectable elevation of 3-methylglutaconic acid (3-MGA) in the urine. In type 1 (or primary) 3-MGA-uria, distal defects in the leucine catabolism pathway directly cause this elevation. Secondary 3-MGA-uria syndromes, however, are unrelated to leucine metabolism-specific defects but share a common biochemical phenotype of elevated 3-MGA.

Dysregulated energy metabolism, particularly lipid metabolism disorders, has been identified as a key factor in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) is a deacetylase involved in the regulation of metabolism and cellular energy homeostasis, yet its role in the progression of DCM remains unclear. We observed significantly reduced SIRT2 expression in DCM model mice.

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), a γ-herpesvirus, is predominantly associated with Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) as well as two lymphoproliferative disorders: primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) and multicentric Castleman disease (MCD). Like other herpesviruses, KSHV employs two distinct life cycles: latency and lytic replication. To establish a lifelong persistent infection, KSHV has evolved various strategies to manipulate the epigenetic machinery of the host.
