Piceatannol (3,3',4,5'-tetrahydroxy-trans-stilbene, 2), an oxygenated analog of resveratrol (1), was synthesized. It is one of the naturally occurring polyphenolic stilbenoids contained in red wine, and possesses many kinds of beneficial effects such as anticancer activity. The trans-stilbene skeleton of 2 was constructed by Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reaction of triflate 8 with (E)-alkenylboronoate 13. The key intermediate 13 was prepared diastereoselectively by acid-catalyzed hydroboration of pinacolborane 12 to alkyne 11.

Background: Hypomethylating agents (HMA), such as azacytidine (AZA) and decitabine (DAC), are epigenetic therapies used to treat some patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome. HMAs act in a replication-dependent manner to remove DNA methylation from the genome. However, AML cells targeted by HMA therapy are often quiescent within the bone marrow, where oxygen levels are low.

During hypoxia, tissues are subjected to an inadequate oxygen supply, disrupting the balance needed to maintain normal function. This deficiency can occur due to reduced oxygen delivery caused by impaired blood flow or a decline in the blood's ability to carry oxygen. In tumors, hypoxia and vascularization play crucial roles, shaping their microenvironments and influencing cancer progression, response to treatment and metastatic potential.

Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after orthognathic surgery remains one of the most common side effects despite the use of several medications.
Purpose: The study aimed to compare the frequencies of PONV between a combination of metoclopramide with granisetron and granisetron alone.
Study Design, Setting, Sample: A randomized double-blind clinical trial was conducted in 66 consecutive patients who underwent orthognathic surgery at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Bezmialem Vakif University.

Despite the ubiquity and complexity of atmospheric polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs), many of these compounds are largely unknown and lack sufficient toxicity data for comprehensive risk assessments. In this study, nontarget screening assisted by in-house and self-developed spectra databases was, therefore, employed to identify PACs in atmospheric particulate matter collected from multiple outdoor settings. Additionally, absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity properties were evaluated to indicate PAC's overall abilities to cause adverse outcomes and incorporated into a novel health risk assessment model to assess their inhalation risks.

Nanoconfinement at the interface of heterogeneous Fenton-like catalysts offers promising avenues for advancing oxidation processes in water purification. Herein, we introduce a template-free strategy for synthesizing nanoconfined catalysts from municipal sludge (S-NCCs), specifically engineered to optimize reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and utilization for rapid pollutant degradation. Using selective hydrofluoric acid corrosion, we create an architecture that confines atomically dispersed Fe centers within a micro-mesoporous carbon matrix in situ.
