The fully functionalized A-F fragment of the Pacific ciguatoxin CTX3C has been synthesized from a derivative of D-glucal, which serves as the B-ring. Rings A and C were introduced to either side of ring B by ring-closing diene and enyne metathesis (RCM). The seven-membered D-ring and eight-membered E-ring were assembled by iterative use of a six-step reaction sequence in which RCM was used for ring construction and Tsuji-Trost allylation was employed for subsequent stereoselective functionalization. The nine-membered F-ring was formed by use of an RCM reaction and bears the functionality required for attachment of the I-M fragment and subsequent closure of rings G and H.

Background: Fluoroethylnormemantine (FENM), a new Memantine (MEM) derivative, prevented amyloid-β[25-35] peptide (Aβ)-induced neurotoxicity in mice, a pharmacological model of Alzheimer's disease (AD) with high predictive value for drug discovery. Here, as drug infusion is likely to better reflect drug bioavailability due to the interspecies pharmacokinetics variation, we analyzed the efficacy of FENM after chronic subcutaneous (SC) infusion, in comparison with IP injections in two AD mouse models, Aβ-injected mice and the transgenic APP/PSEN1 (APP/PS1) line.
Methods: In Aβ-treated mice, FENM was infused at 0.
Nanobody-assisted nanoluciferase fragment complementation for in situ measurement and visualization of endogenous protein-protein interaction.

Here, we developed nanobody-assisted nanoluciferase fragment complementation for in situ measurement and visualization of endogenous protein-protein interaction (NanaPPI). When an interaction occurs, primary antibodies for two proteins bring the proximity of secondary nanobody-fused small/large fragment to reassemble into an intact NanoLuc variant, thus transforming interaction events to luminescent signals in situ with high sensitivity. Compared to proximity ligation assay, NanaPPI has a similar signal-to-background ratio, but it is more convenient with faster procedures, easier readout and lower cost.

Article Synopsis
- Microplastics (MPs), particularly conventional polystyrene (PS) and biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA), have been identified as significant contributors to the transfer of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in wastewater treatment.
- MPs enhance the conjugative transfer of ARGs during ultraviolet disinfection by providing light shielding and generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) that increase bacterial permeability.
- The study emphasizes the environmental risks posed by both PS and PLA MPs in promoting ARG exchange, raising concerns about their impact on public health and wastewater treatment processes.

The occurrence of viral diseases poses a huge threat and impact on human public health safety and the development of the animal and fishery industry. Here, a strain of single-chain antibody fragment, scFv-1, was isolated from the phage antibody display library construct by immunizing New Zealand white rabbits with rhabdovirus. analysis showed that the single-chain antibody could inhibit the infection of the virus in multiple pathways, including adsorption, fusion, and release.
