Coumarin compounds have a variety of biological activities such as anti-tumor, anti-coagulation, anti-HIV, anti-fungal, and insecticidal. Amide and sulfonamide compounds have been used as fungicides for half a century, and dozens of varieties have been developed so far. This study focused on the introduction of carboxamide and sulfonamide moieties in a coumarin core to discover novel derivatives. Based on this strategy, we synthesized two series of novel carboxamide and sulfonamide substituted coumarin derivatives, and their fungicidal activity was also investigated. Some designed compounds possessed potential activities against six phytopathogenic fungi in the primary assays, highlighted by compound . Compound exhibited stronger fungicidal activity against (EC = 20.52 µg/mL) and will be the lead structure for further study.

Objective: To investigate whether cardiac mast cells (MCs) participate in pressure overload-induced myocardial hypertrophy through the regulation of transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4).
Methods: Pressure overload-induced myocardial hypertrophy was induced via abdominal aortic constriction (AAC). Myocardial hypertrophy was evaluated by measuring the heart weight index (HW/BW), lung weight index (LW/BW), ratio of heart weight to tibia length (HW/TL), ratio of lung weight to tibia length (LW/TL), and cross-sectional area of myocardial cells.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The rapid development of highly effective vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 has altered the trajectory of the pandemic, and antiviral therapeutics have further reduced the number of COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths. Coronaviruses are enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses that encode various structural and non-structural proteins, including those critical for viral RNA replication and evasion from innate immunity.

The environmental fate of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in aqueous film-forming foams (AFFFs), especially those synthesized by electrochemical fluorination (ECF) processes, remains largely unknown. This study evaluated the transformation of AFFF-derived ECF-based precursors in aerobic soil microcosms amended with a historically used AFFF formulation (3M Light Water). Fifteen classes of PFAS, including AFFF components and transformation products, were identified or tentatively identified by suspect screening/nontargeted analysis (SSA/NTA) throughout a 308-day incubation.

Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) channels have been associated with numerous pulmonary pathologies, including hypertension, asthma, and acute lung injury. However, their role in the alveolar epithelium remains unclear. We performed impedance-based resistance measurements in primary differentiated alveolar epithelial type I (AT1) cells from wild-type (WT) and TRPV4-deficient (TRPV4-/-) C57/BL6J mice to detect changes in AT1 barrier integrity upon TRPV4 activation.

Twelve new sulphonamide (Cys-Gly) dipeptide carboxamide derivatives 17a-17l were designed, prepared and characterized through spectroscopic techniques and their pharmacological properties investigated. The molecular docking analyses revealed good interactions of the derivatives with the desired amino residues active pockets. In vitro antimicrobial, in vivo antimalarial, haematological and other related tests (liver and kidney) were also conducted.
