Published: March 2015

Scorpiops (Vietscorpiops) dentidactylus subgen. n. et sp. n., belonging to the family Euscorpiidae Laurie, 1896, is described on the basis of single male collected in Dien Bien Province, Muong Nhe District, Nam Vi Commune, in a limestone formation covered by rainforest, in the extreme North of Vietnam. The new subgenus is characterized by the presence of only two lateral eyes represented by lenses and a strong, peculiar apophysis on the internal face of the chelal movable finger. This new scorpion taxon may represent yet another endemic element in the fauna of Southeast Asia, mainly Vietnam and Laos.

Enhancement of Transdermal Drug Delivery: Integrating Microneedles with Biodegradable Microparticles.

Mol Pharm

January 2025

Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, College of Pharmacy, Mercer University, Atlanta, Georgia 30341, United States.

This investigation aimed to enhance transdermal methotrexate delivery through human skin by employing Dr. Pen microneedles and poly(d,l-lactide--glycolide) acid microparticles formulated from eight polymer grades (Expansorb DLG 95-4A, DLG 75-5A, DLG 50-2A, DLG 50-5A, DLG 50-8A, DLG 50-6P, DLG 50-7P, and DLL 10-15A). A comprehensive characterization of the microparticles was performed, encompassing various parameters such as size, charge, morphology, microencapsulation efficiency, yield, release kinetics, and chemical composition.

Some novel sulphonyl thiourea derivatives (7a-m) containing 4,6-diarylpyrimidine rings were designed and synthesized using a one-pot procedure. These compounds exhibited remarkable dual inhibitory activity against human carbonic anhydrase CA I, CA II, CA IX, and XII isoenzymes and some cancer cell lines. Among them, some thioureas had significantly more potent inhibitory activities in the order of 7l > 7c > 7f (against the CA I isoform), 7f > 7b > 7c (against the CA II isoform), 7c > 7g > 7a > 7b (against the CA IX isoform), and 7d > 7c > 7g > 7f (against the CA XII isoform).

Carbon dioxide capture is a vital approach for mitigating air pollution and global warming. In this context, metal-organic frameworks are promising candidates. Particularly, MIL-88A (M), where the metal nodes (M) are connected to fumarate linkers in its structure, has demonstrated significant potential for CO capture.
