2-(Acylmethylene)pyrrolidine derivatives were synthesized via intermolecular decarbonylative Mannich reaction from various methyl ketones and 1-alkyl-1-pyrroliniums, generated in situ from 1-alkylprolines. This approach mimics the biosynthetic pathway and provides a direct access to a series of 2-(acylmethylene)pyrrolidine alkaloids, including hygrine, N-methylruspolinone, dehydrodarlinine, and ruspolinone.

Background: Scedosporium apiospermum is a multidrug-resistant filamentous fungus that causes localized and disseminated diseases. Our group has previously described that metalbased complexes containing copper(II) or silver(I) ions complexed with 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6- dione (phendione) inhibited the viability of S. apiospermum conidial cells.

A rapid chemical reprogramming system to generate human pluripotent stem cells.

Chemical reprogramming enables the generation of human pluripotent stem (hCiPS) cells from somatic cells using small molecules, providing a promising strategy for regenerative medicine. However, the current method is time consuming, and some cell lines from different donors are resistant to chemical induction, limiting the utility of this approach. Here, we developed a fast reprogramming system capable of generating hCiPS cells in as few as 10 days.

Long-range organization of intestinal 2D-crypts using exogenous Wnt3a micropatterning.

Nat Commun

January 2025

Biomimetic Systems for Cell Engineering Laboratory, Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), The Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST), Barcelona, Spain.

Intestinal epithelial cells are segregated into proliferative crypts and differentiated regions. This organization relies on specific signals, including Wnt3a, which regulates cell proliferation within crypts, and Eph/Ephrin, which dictates cell positioning along the crypt-villus axis. However, studying how the spatial distributions of these signals influences crypt-villus organization is challenging both in vitro and in vivo.

Multimaterial cryogenic printing of three-dimensional soft hydrogel machines.

January 2025

Robotics Institute and State Key Laboratory of Mechanical System and Vibration, School of Mechanical Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China.

Hydrogel-based soft machines are promising in diverse applications, such as biomedical electronics and soft robotics. However, current fabrication techniques generally struggle to construct multimaterial three-dimensional hydrogel architectures for soft machines and robots, owing to the inherent hydrogel softness from the low-density polymer network nature. Herein, we present a multimaterial cryogenic printing (MCP) technique that can fabricate sophisticated soft hydrogel machines with accurate yet complex architectures and robust multimaterial interfaces.

Bioinspired concise synthesis of caged Sesquiterpenoids Artatrovirenols A and B.

Nat Commun

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Applied Organic Chemistry, College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou, 730000, Gansu, PR China.

Artatrovirenols A and B are two newly isolated sesquiterpenoids with a complex caged framework. We report herein a concise synthesis of artatrovirenols A and B in 9 and 8 steps, respectively. The complex caged tetracycle is rapidly constructed from a known planar guaiane-type precursor through a bioinspired intramolecular [4 + 2] cyclization to firstly access artatrovirenol B, which is further transformed into artatrovirenol A through a biomimetic epoxidation-mediated lactonization reaction.
