A paired electrochemical method is presented for the one-pot synthesis of γ,δ-unsaturated α-amino esters. The method involves the generation of organozinc reagents through zinc chloride reduction on the nickel cathode and the TEMPO-mediated oxidation of amino esters on the carbon anode. The presence of an ester moiety in the amine substrate was found to be crucial for achieving high diastereoselectivity.

A novel therapeutic HBV vaccine candidate induces strong polyfunctional cytotoxic T cell responses in mice.

Background & Aims: Current standard-of-care suppresses HBV replication, but does not lead to a functional cure. Treatment aiming to cure chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is believed to require the induction of strong cellular immune responses, such as by therapeutic vaccination.
Methods: We designed a therapeutic HBV vaccine candidate (YF17D/HBc-C) using yellow fever vaccine YF17D as a live-attenuated vector to express HBV core antigen (HBc).

Autophagy

Macroautophagy/autophagy is elevated to ensure the high demand for nutrients for the growth of cancer cells. Here we demonstrated that MCOLN1/TRPML1 is a pharmaceutical target of oncogenic autophagy in cancers such as pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, gastric cancer, malignant melanoma, and glioma. First, we showed that activating MCOLN1, by increasing expression of the channel or using the MCOLN1 agonists, ML-SA5 or MK6-83, arrests autophagic flux by perturbing fusion between autophagosomes and lysosomes.

Unlabelled: CASP9 (caspase 9) is a well-known initiator caspase which triggers intrinsic apoptosis. Recent studies also suggest various non-apoptotic roles of CASP9, including macroautophagy/autophagy regulation. However, the involvement of CASP9 in autophagy and its molecular mechanisms are not well understood.

A design approach that incorporates structural requirements for the formation of a 1D assembly, fibril stability, and fibril-fibril interactions for gelation was attempted by using amino acid-based sulfamides with the general structure Aa-NH-SO -NH-Aa (Aa=amino acid). A preference for 1D assembly alone was not a sufficient condition for gelation, which became evident from studies involving sulfamide esters 1-5. Reducing the crystallization tendency without hindering unidirectional growth was executed through diacids of the sulfamide precursors with various amines that form an envelope around the sulfamide core through salt bridges.

Cross-reactive peptides on HIV-1 and FIV p24 protein sequences were studied using peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from untreated HIV-1-infected long-term survivors (LTS; >10 y of infection without antiretroviral therapy, ART), short-term HIV-1 infected subjects not on ART, and ART-treated HIV-1 infected subjects. IFNγ-ELISpot and CFSE-proliferation analyses were performed with PBMC using overlapping HIV-1 and FIV p24 peptides. Over half of the HIV-1 infected subjects tested (22/31 or 71%) responded to one or more FIV p24 peptide pools by either IFNγ or T-cell proliferation analysis.
