We describe the first enantioselective synthesis of highly functionalized 1-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes (1-IM). The 1-IM scaffold is present in natural products and drugs and is an isomer of the morphan moiety. The proposed methodology is based on an organocatalytic Michael addition of -protected piperidine ketoesters to nitroalkenes and an intramolecular nitro-Mannich reaction as key transformations. The 1-IMs feature 6 contiguous stereocenters, substituents at positions 2 and 4, and nitro, ester, and hydroxyl functional groups at positions 3, 5, and 6 respectively. The synthesis is straightforward, highly stereoselective (up to 98% ee, >99 : 1 d.r.), with overall yields of up to 83% and requires only two purification steps.

Highly abundant in neurons, the cellular prion protein (PrP) is an obligatory precursor to the disease-associated misfolded isoform denoted PrP that accumulates in the rare neurodegenerative disorders referred to either as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) or as prion diseases. The ability of PrP to serve as a substrate for this template-mediated conversion process depends on several criteria but importantly includes the presence or absence of certain endoproteolytic events performed at the cell surface or in acidic endolysosomal compartments. The major endoproteolytic events affecting PrP are referred to as α- and β-cleavages, and in this review we outline the sites within PrP at which the cleavages occur, the mechanisms potentially responsible and their relevance to pathology.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: The study material was Medicinae ex oleribus et pomis, the work of Quintus Gargilius Martialis, a third-century Roman writer, a systematizer of rules for cultivating and medical application of over 60 types of vegetables and fruits. The methodological basis of the research is a set of general scientific and special research methods, including analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, historical, interdisciplinary, descriptive methods, and the method of contextual analysis.

Seawater electrolysis has emerged as a promising approach for the generation of hydrogen energy, but the production of deleterious chlorine derivatives (e.g., chloride and hypochlorite) presents a significant challenge due to the severe corrosion at the anode.

Triglyceride (TG) metabolism is a complex and highly coordinated biological process regulated by a series of genes, and its dysregulation can lead to the occurrence of disorders in lipid metabolism. However, the transcriptional regulatory mechanisms of crucial genes in TG metabolism mediated by enhancer-promoter interactions remain elusive. Here, we identified candidate enhancers regulating the Agpat2, Dgat1, Dgat2, Pnpla2, and Lipe genes in 3T3-L1 adipocytes by integrating epigenomic data (H3K27ac, H3K4me1, and DHS-seq) with chromatin three-dimensional interaction data.
