AI Article Synopsis

  • This study presents the first mass spectrometric analysis of poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) with weakly coordinating anions via a quick and efficient postmodification technique using poly(vinylbenzylpyridinium chloride) as a model.
  • The analysis employs in-source collision induced dissociation-Orbitrap mass spectrometry to accurately determine the structure of ion-exchanged p([VBPy]Cl) with various AgX salts.
  • The research demonstrates that the anion exchange process is complete and quick, with no leftover chlorinated PIL detectable, and also investigates how weakly coordinating anions affect the ionization of PILs.

Article Abstract

We report the first mass spectrometric analysis of poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) containing weakly coordinating anions introduced by a fast, simple, and quantitative postmodification method on the example of the hydrophilic, well-defined poly(vinylbenzylpyridinium chloride) p([VBPy]Cl) species, analyzed with an in-source collision induced dissociation-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (MS) protocol. Using the MS approach allows for the precise structural elucidation of ion-exchanged p([VBPy]Cl) utilizing AgX (X = NO , CF CO , BF ) salts. The anion exchange is shown to be quantitative - without observing residual chlorinated PIL - on rapid time scales, using only filtration as a standard procedure during sample preparation. In addition, the influence of weakly coordinating anions on the ionization behavior of PILs is studied in detail.

Neurological diseases are associated with disruptions in the brain lipidome that are becoming central to disease pathogenesis. Traditionally perceived as static structural support in membranes, lipids are now known to be actively involved in cellular signaling, energy metabolism, and other cellular activities involving membrane curvature, fluidity, fusion or fission. Glia are critical in the development, health, and function of the brain, and glial regulation plays a major role in disease.

Background: What does neurodevelopment look like when neurodegeneration is the outcome - this is overarching theme of investigations currently ongoing in our lab. The E4 isoform of ApoE protein is the most consistently replicated risk factor in Alzheimer's Disease (AD). And yet, much remains unknown about the biological pathways that connect APOE4 genotype with the development of pathology that eventually leads to AD, nor do we know how early in life these cellular alterations begin.

The endogenous reduction of nitrite to nitrosyl is drawing increasing attention as a protective mechanism against hypoxic injury in mammalian physiology and as an alternative source of NO, which is involved in a wide variety of biological activities. Thus, chemical mechanisms for this transformation, which are mediated by metallo proteins, are of considerable interest. The study described here examines the reactions of the biomimetic models Co(TTP)(NO) (TTP = meso-tetratolylporphyrinato dianion) and Mn(TPP)(ONO) (TPP = meso-tetraphenyl-porphyrinato dianion) in sublimated solid films with hydrogen sulfide (HS) and with ethanethiol (EtSH) at various temperatures from 77 K to room temperature using in situ infrared and optical spectroscopy.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by synovial hyperplasia and cartilage/bone destruction. RA affects the synovial joints, the synovial lining and the permeability of the synovium. As the latter is of central relevance for the distribution of systemically delivered therapeutics into synovial fluid (SF), we here assessed the protein composition of paired plasma and SF of patients diagnosed with RA at three distinct levels of depth using mass spectrometric approaches: the "total" proteome, the "total" IgG1 antibody repertoire and the RA-specific ACPA IgG1 autoantibody repertoire.
