A novel green synthetic methodology has been developed to obtain enantiopure (2S)-2-C-spiro-glycosyl-3-nitrochromenes following the oxa-Michael-aldol condensation reaction of sugar derived 3-C-vinyl nitro olefins with substituted salicylaldehydes using Et3N as a base under neat conditions at rt-40 °C. The stereochemistry of the product is confirmed by a single crystal X-ray study. Several advantages are associated with this protocol such as cost effectiveness, easy accessibility, short reaction time, high yields, wide substrate scope and high enantiopurity.

Argonaute proteins are categorized into AGO and PIWI clades. Across most animal species, AGO-clade proteins are widely expressed in various cell types, and regulate normal gene expression. By contrast, PIWI-clade proteins predominantly function during gametogenesis to suppress transposons and ensure fertility.

Tumor immunotherapy has been widely used clinically, but it is still hindered by weak antitumor immunity and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, a kind of simple disodium hydrogen phosphate nanoparticle (Na2HPO4 NP) is prepared to "accelerate" tumor immunotherapy by "increasing throttle" and "relaxing brake" simultaneously. The obtained Na2HPO4 NPs release a large amount of Na+ and HPO42- ions within tumor cells, thereby activating the caspase 1/GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis pathway to achieve immune activation.

The striped stem borer (Chilo suppressalis, SSB) is a highly destructive insect pest in rice (Oryza sativa). SSB oral secretions (OSs) can induce plant defense responses in rice. However, the specific effectors in SSB OSs that mediate these interactions with rice remain poorly understood.

Background: Dysfunction in podocyte mitophagy has been identified as a contributing factor to the onset and progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN), and BMAL1 plays an important role in the regulation of mitophagy. Thus, this study intended to examine the impact of BMAL1 on podocyte mitophagy in DN and elucidate its underlying mechanisms.
Materials And Methods: High D-glucose (HG)-treated MPC5 cells was used as a podocyte injury model for investigating the potential roles of BMAL1 in DN.

Base-stabilized rhodium borylene complex κ2-L(CO)Rh(BMes), 2; κ2-L = κ2-NN'-Rh,κ1-N-B-(2,5-[iPr2P=N(4-iPrC6H4)]2-N'(C4H2)-); Mes = mesityl, reacts with a series of alkynes (PhC≡C-R; R = Ph, Me, CO2Et, H) to yield unique structures whereby the alkyne has regioselectively added across boron and the carbon atom of a CO ligand. The resulting complexes, LRh[C(O)C(Ph)C(R)B(Mes)], 3R, react with additional CO to afford cycle-containing products, L(CO)Rh([[EQUATION]]), 5R, that ultimately release highly functionalized organic heterocycles of the form [[EQUATION]]=NPipp (Pipp = 4-iPrC6H4), 6. These oxaboroles, which were assembled from a primary hydroborane, CO, an alkyne, and an azide-generated NPipp, are structurally analogous to two of the five boron-containing therapeutics approved by the FDA.
