The first case of successful suppression of the coordination of a lithium atom with a dialkylamino group by the effective conjugation of the latter with the aromatic core has been discovered. This effect controls regioselectivity of the bromine-lithium exchange in 4,6,7,9-tetrabromo-1,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-perimidine, which leads to products with the most effective conjugation. As a result, the product of this quadruple exchange demonstrates no tendency of the coordination of the NMe groups to neighboring lithium atoms despite the absence of steric restrictions. Experimental results are explained by means of quantum chemical calculations: geometry optimization, natural bond analysis and scans using the modredundant scheme.

African swine fever (ASF) is an acute hemorrhagic disease in pigs caused by the African swine fever virus (ASFV), which has a high mortality rate and brought great damage to global pig farming industry. At present, there is no effective treatment or vaccine to combat ASFV infection, so early detection of ASFV has become particularly important. Therefore, the PDMS/chitosan/MPMs composite film was proposed to detect ASFV P72.

Calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase II inhibitor 1 (Camk2n1) is closely associated with a peak logarithm of odds score in quantitative trait loci for systolic blood pressure. Increased Camk2n1 mRNA expression has been specifically observed in the kidneys of hypertension mouse models. However, the precise role of Camk2n1 in the kidney remains unclear.

Chemoresistance, a significant challenge in effective cancer treatment needs clear elucidation of the underlying molecular mechanism for the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Alterations in transporter pumps, oncogenes, tumour suppressor genes, mitochondrial function, DNA repair processes, autophagy, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), cancer stemness, epigenetic modifications, and exosome secretion lead to chemoresistance. Despite notable advancements in targeted cancer therapies employing both small molecules and macromolecules success rates remain suboptimal due to adverse effects like drug efflux, target mutation, increased mortality of normal cells, defective apoptosis, etc.

Graphene oxide (GO) is an amphiphilic and versatile graphene-based nanomaterial that is extremely promising for targeted drug delivery, which aims to administer drugs in a spatially and temporally controlled manner. A typical GO nanocarrier features a polyethylene glycol coating and conjugation to an active targeting ligand. However, it is challenging to accurately model GO dots, because of their intrinsically complex and not unique structure.

We aimed to evaluate the effect of mass campaigns on nasopharyngeal pneumococcal carriage of Pneumosil (PCV10) in children aged 1-9 years in Niger.
Methods: In this three-arm, open-label, cluster-randomised trial, 63 clusters of one to four villages in Niger were randomly assigned (3:3:1) using block randomisation to receive campaigns consisting of a single full dose of a 10-valent PCV (Pneumosil), a single one-fifth dose of Pneumosil, or no campaign.
