Mono- and dihydroxylated symmetrical octamethylcucurbit[6]urils {(OH)OMeQ[6] and (OH)OMeQ[6]} were prepared using a photochemical method to introduce limited alcohol group(s) directly to the parent symmetrical octamethylcucurbit[6]uril (OMeQ[6]), and the resulting compounds were verified by H NMR, Xevo Q-TOF MS, and X-ray crystallography. Further chemical modification of mono- and dihydroxylated OMeQ[6] was also performed.

AE90015 is a highly specific and effective negative allosteric modulator (NAM) for the human mGlu5 receptor, showing significant promise for treating Parkinson's disease. An in vivo rat oral dose study was conducted on AE90015, which involved the collection of urine and bile samples over a 24 h period. At the study's endpoint, plasma, liver, brain, and renal tissues were also collected.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), such as 2,2',3,5',6-pentachlorobiphenyl (PCB95), are persistent organic pollutants associated with adverse health outcomes, including developmental neurotoxicity. PCB95 is a chiral neurotoxic PCB congener atropselectively metabolized to potentially neurotoxic metabolites in vivo. However, the metabolic pathways of most PCB congeners, including PCB95, remain unknown.

Methyltrienolone (17β-hydroxy-17α-methylestra-4,9,11-trien-3-one) is one of the anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). The biotransformation of methyltrienolone is performed in vitro by human hepatocytes microsomes. Both phase I and phase II experiments are investigated.

Rieske non-heme iron oxygenases are ubiquitously expressed in prokaryotes. These enzymes catalyze a wide variety of reactions, including cis-dihydroxylation, mono-hydroxylation, sulfoxidation, and demethylation. They contain a Rieske-type [2Fe-2S] cluster and an active site with a mono-nuclear iron bound to a 2-His carboxylate triad.

Polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) are associated with an increased risk of thyroid cancer; however, relevant mechanistic studies are lacking. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms underlying PBB-induced human thyroid cancer. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics methods were employed to investigate the metabolism of PBBs by the cytochrome P450 enzyme under aryl hydrocarbon receptor mediation into mono- and di-hydroxylated metabolites.
