Making use of a reductive olefin coupling reaction and Michael-Dieckmann condensation as two key operations, we have completed a concise total synthesis of tetarimycin A, (±)-naphthacemycin A, and (±)-fasamycin A in a highly convergent and practical protocol. Synthetic procedures thus developed have also been applied to provide related analogues for structure-activity relationship studies, thereby coming to the conclusion that the free hydroxyl group at C-10 is essential for exerting inhibitory activities against a panel of Gram-positive bacteria, including drug-resistant strains VRE and MRSA.

The frequency of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in clinical trials remains a challenge for drug developers despite advances in human hepatotoxicity models and improvements in reducing liver-related attrition in preclinical species. TAK-994, an oral orexin receptor 2 agonist, was withdrawn from phase II clinical trials due to the appearance of severe DILI. Here, we investigate the likely mechanism of TAK-994 DILI in hepatic cell culture systems examined cytotoxicity, mitochondrial toxicity, impact on drug transporter proteins, and covalent binding.

Arsenic in drinking water has been associated with an increased risk of health concerns. This metalloid is ingested and distributed throughout the body, accumulating in several organs, including the testis. In this organ, arsenic disturbs steroidogenesis and spermatogenesis and affects male fertility.

Importance: Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) has been described to typically occur during the early hours of life (HOL); however, the exact time of onset is still unknown.
Objective: To investigate the temporal distribution of IVH reported in very preterm neonates.
Data Sources: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched on May 9, 2024.

A modular approach was developed for the first catalytic asymmetric total syntheses of naturally occurring C30 terpene quinone methides and their non-natural stereoisomers, which feature the presence of an unprecedented spiro[4.4]nonane-containing 6-6-6-5-5-3 hexacyclic skeleton. Resting on a chiral phosphinamide-catalyzed enantioselective reduction of 2,2-disubstituted cyclohexane-1,3-dione, a concise route for the synthesis of enantioenriched 6-6 bicyclic fragment was developed.

Background: biomarkers are essential in order to make a diagnosis with a high level of accuracy in patients with cognitive and behavior complaints. However, molecular imaging biomarkers not always provide an answer in daily clinical practice.
Methods: retrospective and descriptive study in patients with Amyloid PET (APscans) implemented according to rational use of this technic, between January 2019-November 2023 in Neurology Department, Infanta Leonor Hospital, Madrid, Spain.
