A new type of neutral mixed-valence system was synthesized using a facile one-pot procedure. The spiro-conjugated framework is additionally "fastened" with a biphenyl bridge, which does not directly participate in spin delocalization but makes the molecule stable and influences the reorganization energy and the energy barrier of the intramolecular electron transfer. The in-depth experimental and quantum-chemical study allowed determining the radicals as the Class II Robin-Day-mixed-valence systems. The structure of the radicals was confirmed by the X-ray data, which are relatively rare for Class II MV molecules. Advanced properties of the radicals, such as an ambipolar redox behavior and panchromatic absorption in the visible and NIR regions, along with their stability, make them of interest for materials science. All radicals demonstrate the SOMO-HOMO inversion phenomenon, which was supported by the DFT and the experimental study.

Background: Transition from paediatric to adult healthcare is a turning point for patients with Type 1 diabetes (T1D). A gradual coordinated process connecting paediatric and adult healthcare providers may improve adherence to adult follow-up.

Aims: To describe a transition process developed jointly by paediatric and adult diabetology units and compare patients progressing or not to follow-up in adult care setting.

Introduction: Diabetes is a metabolic disorder of glucose homeostasis that is a significant risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, as well as mood disorders, which often precede neurodegenerative conditions. We examined the medial habenulainterpeduncular nucleus (MHb-IPN), as this circuit plays crucial roles in mood regulation, has been linked to the development of diabetes after smoking, and is rich in cholinergic neurons, which are affected in other brain areas in Alzheimer's disease.

Methods: This study aimed to investigate the impact of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced hyperglycemia, a type 1 diabetes model, on mitochondrial and lipid homeostasis in 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed sections from the MHb and IPN of C57BL/6 J male mice, using a recently developed automated pipeline for mitochondrial analysis in confocal images.

This research delves into Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 2 (PH2), an autosomal recessive disorder precipitated by a unique case of compound heterozygous deleterious mutations in the GRHPR gene, specifically the intron2/3 c.214-2 T > G and the exon8 c.864-865delTG, leading to a premature stop codon at p.

Thermal aggregation of immunoglobulin G depending on the charge state of protein-polyelectrolyte complexes.

Int J Biol Macromol

January 2025

Institute of Pure and Applied Sciences, University of Tsukuba, 1-1-1 Tennodai, Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305-8573, Japan. Electronic address:

Protein-polyelectrolyte complexes (PPCs) exhibit opposite effects, both suppressing and promoting protein aggregation, depending on the type of components. For the application of PPCs as protein stabilization technology, these opposite effects must be controlled. In this study, we investigated the thermal aggregation of immunoglobulin G (IgG)-polyamino acid complexes to elucidate the relationship between the charge state of PPCs, evaluated by the zeta potential, and their opposite effects on the aggregation process, which were measured using a spectrophotometer.

Hydrophobicity is associated with drug transport across membranes and is expressed as the partition coefficient log P for neutral drugs and the distribution coefficient log D for acidic and basic drugs. The log P and log D predictions are deductively (or with artificial intelligence) estimated as the sum of the partial contributions of the scaffold and substituents of a single molecule and are used widely and affirmatively. However, their predictions have not always been comprehensively accurate beyond scaffold differences.
