Aryl-substituted esters of a racemic diprotected 2-azido-1-alkanol were submitted to the Staudinger/aza-Wittig reaction in order to assess scope and establish conditions for their cyclization to the corresponding 2,4,5-trisubstituted oxazolines. Following the cyclization study, the (2,3)-antipode of the azidoalkanol was obtained in high ee by incubation of the corresponding racemic azidoacetate with pig liver esterase (PLE). The -nitrobenzoate of the enantioenriched 2-azido-1-alcohol was cyclized by the Staudinger/aza-Wittig to give the corresponding (4,5)-disubstituted-2-(4-nitrophenyl) oxazoline. Selective reduction of the nitrophenyloxazoline to the corresponding aminophenyloxazoline using aluminum amalgam followed by direct azidation of the 2-(4-aminophenyl) moiety provided the corresponding (4,5)-2-(4-azidophenyl) oxazoline derivative. The azidophenyl oxazoline was reacted with a proven click partner 4-ethynylfluorobenzene under copper/sodium ascorbate mediation to provide the click triazole product in high yield.

Background/objectives: Anterior segment optical Coherence Tomography (AS-OCT) is used extensively in imaging the cornea in health and disease. Our objective was to analyse and monitor corneal vascularisation (CVas) through the corresponding back-shadows visible on AS-OCT.
Subjects/methods: AS-OCT scans were obtained from 26 consecutive patients (eyes) with CVas of different aetiologies.

We intended to investigate the potential of several transitional zone (TZ) volume-related variables for the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) among lesions scored as Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) category 3. Between September 2018 and August 2023, patients who underwent mpMRI examination and scored as PI-RADS 3 were queried from our institution. The diagnostic performances of prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD), TZ-adjusted PSAD (TZPSAD), and TZ-ratio (TZ volume/whole gland prostate volume) were analyzed.

Urban woodland composition and configuration have strong associations with land surface temperatures (LST), but the evidence is contradictory due to different spatial scales, regional climate zones, woodland types and urban contexts. In this study, we analyse associations between urban woodland and LST within and between five cities in different Köppen climate zones. Our consistent methodology is framed around local climate zones and conducted at a fine spatial scale.

UVB irradiation induces diverse modalities of regulatory cell death in keratinocytes. Recently, the pattern of coexistence of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis has been termed PANoptosis; however, whether PANoptosis occurs in keratinocytes in UVB-induced skin injury remains unclear. We observed that the key molecules of GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis, which are N-terminal GSDMD, cleaved caspase-3/PARP, and phosphorylated MLKL, respectively, were elevated in keratinocytes of UVB-challenged mice and human skin tissue.

The size of InGaN micro-LEDs is continuously decreasing to meet the demands of various emerging applications, especially in tiny micro-displays such as AR/VR. However, the conventional pixel definition based on plasma etching significantly damages the mesa sidewalls, leading to a severe reduction in efficiency as the micro-LED size decreases. This seriously impedes the development and application of micro-LEDs.
