Published: July 2019

Design, synthesis and functional analysis of fluorescent derivatives of neopeltolide, an antiproliferative marine macrolide, are reported herein. Live cell imaging using the fluorescent derivatives showed rapid cellular uptake and localization within the endoplasmic reticulum as well as the mitochondria.

Background: Three dimensional (3D) cell cultures can be effectively used for drug discovery and development but there are still challenges in their general application to high-throughput screening. In this study, we developed a novel high-throughput chemotherapeutic 3D drug screening system for gastric cancer, named 'Cure-GA', to discover clinically applicable anticancer drugs and predict therapeutic responses.

Methods: Primary cancer cells were isolated from 143 fresh surgical specimens by enzymatic treatment.

This study evaluates the feasibility of converting Ca-montmorillonite into Na-montmorillonite through electroosmosis. Comprehensive analyses of current, pH, ζ-potential, and ethylene glycol expansion were conducted to investigate the macro- and microscale effects of electroosmosis. The results demonstrate that electroosmosis effectively reduces the swelling properties of montmorillonite.

A total of 38 new benzohydrazide derivatives bearing the 4-aminoquinazoline moiety were designed and synthesized based on the active subunit combination approach and tested in detail for their inhibition activities against eight agricultural phytopathogenic fungi. The bioassay results indicated that many of the synthesized compounds exhibited extraordinary fungicidal activities in vitro against the tested fungi. For example, compounds , , , and had EC (half-maximal effective concentration) values of 0.

Pigeons and certain other avian species produce a milk-like secretion in their crop sacs to nourish offspring, yet the detailed processes involved are not fully elucidated. This study investigated the crop sacs of 225-day-old unpaired non-lactating male pigeons (MN) and males initiating lactation on the first day after incubation (ML). Using RNA sequencing, ribosome profiling, and single-cell transcriptome sequencing (scRNA-seq), we identified a significant up-regulation of genes associated with ribosome assembly and protein synthesis in ML compared to MN.

Background: Sprouting blood vessels, reaching the aimed location, and establishing the proper connections are vital for building vascular networks. Such biological processes are subject to precise molecular regulation. So far, the mechanistic insights into understanding how blood vessels grow to the correct position are limited.
