New benzothiadiazole-based materials containing methyl substitution are prepared and characterized as promising green/yellowish green emitters for electroluminescent applications. The dyes exhibited shorter wavelength absorption and emission when compared to nonmethylated dyes. A dye containing methyl group on the donor side exhibited blue shift in absorption and emission when compared to the analogous dye containing methyl group away from donor. The steric effect exerted by the methyl group is responsible for the nonplanar arrangement of donor and acceptor, which inhibited the intramolecular charge transfer. All the dyes displayed solvatochromism in the emission spectra characteristic of hybridization of local and charge transfer excited states. Due to the benefit of methyl group, the dyes restrained the formation of aggregates in the solid state. Solution processed multilayered OLED device were fabricated employing these compounds either as host emitters or dopant emitters in suitable host matrix and exhibited green/yellowish green electroluminescence with external quantum efficiency as high as 4.6% (15.7 cd A).

Background: Early neurological deterioration (END) is associated with a poor prognosis in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Effectively lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) can improve the stability of atherosclerotic plaque and reduce post-stroke inflammation, which may be an effective means to lower the incidence of END. The objective of this study was to determine the preventive effects of evolocumab on END in patients with non-cardiogenic AIS.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used industrial compound commonly found in various everyday plastic products. Known for its endocrine-disrupting properties, BPA can enter the human body through multiple pathways. Prenatal exposure to BPA not only disrupts placental structure and function but also interferes with normal steroid metabolism.

KDM6A facilitates Xist upregulation at the onset of X inactivation.

Biol Sex Differ

Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, 98195, USA.

Background: X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is a female-specific process in which one X chromosome is silenced to balance X-linked gene expression between the sexes. XCI is initiated in early development by upregulation of the lncRNA Xist on the future inactive X (Xi). A subset of X-linked genes escape silencing and thus have higher expression in females, suggesting female-specific functions.

In this study, new cinnamic acid linked to triazole acetamide derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for anti-Alzheimer and anti-melanogenesis activities. The structural elucidation of all analogs was performed using different analytical techniques, including H-NMR, C-NMR, mass spectrometry, and IR spectroscopy. The synthesized compounds were assessed in vitro for their inhibitory activities against acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and tyrosinase enzymes.
