Quinazoline compounds demonstrate a variety of physiological and pharmacological activities. However, the most common syntheses require large quantities of oxidants, high temperature, and other extreme conditions. In this study, quinazoline compounds were synthesized from the condensation of α-keto acid and 2-aminobenzylamine and then decarboxylation under blue LED irradiation at room temperature without transition metal catalysts or additives. Therefore, we demonstrated that by using α-keto acid as the acyl source, decarboxylation can be realized under blue LED without oxidants, in a simple, mild, and environmentally friendly process.

The aggregation of proteins, peptides and amino acids has been a keen subject of interest owing to their implications in metabolic disorders. In this work, we investigated the self-aggregation of the unmodified aromatic amino acid l-tryptophan (Trp) into unusual spherical microstructures. Using fluorescence spectroscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), we detail the time-dependent transformation of monomeric tryptophan into spherical aggregates with distinct fluorescence characteristics (λ = 345 nm, λ = 430 nm) compared to the monomer.

Cerebral Microbleeds and Amyloid Pathology Estimates From the Amyloid Biomarker Study.

JAMA Netw Open

January 2025

Alzheimer Center Limburg, Department of Psychiatry and Neuropsychology, School for Mental Health and Neuroscience, Maastricht University, Maastricht, the Netherlands.

Importance: Baseline cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and APOE ε4 allele copy number are important risk factors for amyloid-related imaging abnormalities in patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) receiving therapies to lower amyloid-β plaque levels.

Objective: To provide prevalence estimates of any, no more than 4, or fewer than 2 CMBs in association with amyloid status, APOE ε4 copy number, and age.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This cross-sectional study used data included in the Amyloid Biomarker Study data pooling initiative (January 1, 2012, to the present [data collection is ongoing]).

Purported Bladder Irritant Intake in Women With Urgency Urinary Incontinence.

Urogynecology (Phila)

January 2025

From the Division of Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery, Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD.

Importance: Patients with urgency urinary incontinence are often recommended to avoid bladder irritants, but there is a lack of evidence for this.

Objective: The aim of the study was to compare consumption of purported bladder irritants between women with and without urgency urinary incontinence.

Study Design: We performed a case-control study of nonpregnant females aged ≥20 years using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2007-2020.
