We disclose herein a metal-free cascade reductive Friedel-Crafts alkylation/cyclization of keto acids/esters for the synthesis of tetralones and indanones. Owing to the simple reaction conditions and setup, this protocol features broad substrate generality, facile scalability, and remarkable functional group tolerance, including the synthesis of bioactive molecule sertraline.

Polyfluoroalkyl substances can be biotransformed in natural or engineered environmental systems to generate perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs). Data are needed to support the development of biotransformation pathway prediction tools that simulate biotransformation pathways of polyfluoroalkyl substances in specific environmental systems. The goal of this study was to experimentally evaluate the biotransformation of eight structurally similar fluorotelomer acids to identify biotransformation products and propose biotransformation pathways.

An ischemic cerebral stroke results from the interruption of blood flow to the brain, triggering rapid and complex cascades of excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, and inflammation. Current reperfusion therapies, including intravenous thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy, cause further brain injury due to reperfusion-induced cytotoxicity. To date, novel cytoprotective therapies that could address these challenges have yet to be developed, likely due to the limitations of targeting a single pathologic mechanism.

A divergent total synthesis of bioactive, naturally occurring decanolides, pinolidoxin and bellidisin C, was accomplished by taking advantage of chiral templates -ribose and -malic acid. In particular, bellidisin C, which is the first total synthesis so far, was achieved through a cascade reaction of reductive elimination and nucleophilic addition in a one-pot process and a sodium-alkoxide-promoted intramolecular lactonization as the key steps.

: Ischemia-reperfusion-induced acute kidney injury (IR-AKI), characterized by the abrupt decline in renal function, is distinguished by the intricate interplay between oxidative stress and inflammation. In this study, a reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger-CF@PDA was developed to effectively target antioxidant and anti-inflammatory pathways to disrupt the oxidative stress-inflammation cycle in IR-AKI. : UV-vis absorption spectra, FTIR spectra, and TEM were employed to determine the successful construction of CF@P.

Ischemic stroke is a major cause of disability and mortality worldwide, with oxidative stress and blood-brain barrier (BBB) injury playing crucial roles in its pathogenesis. Our RNA sequencing results revealed that S100 calcium-binding protein A4 (S100A4) is highly expressed in the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) mouse model. We analyzed S100A4 expression in ischemic stroke patients and in mice subjected to the MCAO model.
