Epilepsy is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that has seriously threatened human health. Accumulating evidence reveals that the pathological progression of epilepsy is closely related to peroxynitrite (ONOO-). Unfortunately, understanding the physiological roles of ONOO- in epilepsy is still challenging due to the lack of powerful imaging probes for the determination of the level of fluctuations of ONOO- in the epileptic brain. Herein, a near-infrared (NIR) two-photon (TP) fluorescent probe [dicyanomethylene-4H-pyran (DCM)-ONOO] is presented to trace ONOO- in living cells and in kainate (KA)-induced rat epilepsy models with satisfactory sensitivity and selectivity. The probe is composed of a NIR TP DCM fluorophore and a recognition moiety diphenylphosphinamide. The phosphoramide bond of the probe is interrupted after reacting with ONOO- for 10 min, and then, the released amino groups emit strong fluorescence due to the restoration of the intramolecular charge transfer process. The probe can effectively detect the changes of endogenous ONOO- with excellent temporal and spatial resolution in living cells and in rat epileptic brain. The imaging results demonstrate that the increasing level of ONOO- is closely associated with epilepsy and severe neuronal damage in the brain under KA stimulation. In addition, the low-dose resveratrol can effectively inhibit ONOO- overexpression and further relieve neuronal damage. With the assistance of TP fluorescence imaging in the epileptic brain tissue, we hypothesize that the abnormal levels of ONOO- may serve as a potential indicator for the diagnosis of epilepsy. The TP fluorescence imaging based on DCM-ONOO provides a great potential approach for understanding the epilepsy pathology and diagnosis.Recently developed computational models can estimate plasma, hepatic, and renal concentrations of industrial chemicals in rats. Typically, the input parameter values (i.e., the absorption rate constant, volume of systemic circulation, and hepatic intrinsic clearance) for simplified physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model systems are calculated to give the best fit to measured or reported in vivo blood substance concentration values in animals. The purpose of the present study was to estimate in silico these three input pharmacokinetic parameters using a machine learning algorithm applied to a broad range of chemical properties obtained from several cheminformatics software tools. These in silico estimated parameters were then incorporated into PBPK models for predicting internal exposures in rats. Following this approach, simplified PBPK models were set up for 246 drugs, food components, and industrial chemicals with a broad range of chemical structures. We had previously generated PBPK models for 158 of these substances, whereas 88 for which concentration series data were available in the literature were newly modeled. The values for the absorption rate constant, volume of systemic circulation, and hepatic intrinsic clearance could be generated in silico by equations containing between 14 and 26 physicochemical properties. After virtual oral dosing, the output concentration values of the 246 compounds in plasma, liver, and kidney from rat PBPK models using traditionally determined and in silico estimated input parameters were well correlated (r ≥ 0.83). In summary, by using PBPK models consisting of chemical receptor (gut), metabolizing (liver), excreting (kidney), and central (main) compartments with in silico-derived input parameters, the forward dosimetry of new chemicals could provide the plasma/tissue concentrations of drugs and chemicals after oral dosing, thereby facilitating estimates of hematotoxic, hepatotoxic, or nephrotoxic potential as a part of risk assessment.A concise and diastereoselective construction of the ABCD ring system of spirochensilide A is described. The key steps of this synthesis are a semipinacol rearrangement reaction to stereoselectively construct the AB ring system bearing two vicinal quaternary chiral centers and a Co-mediated Pauson-Khand reaction to form the spiro-based bicyclic CD ring system. GLX351322 nmr This chemistry leads to the stereoselective synthesis of 13(R)-demethyl spirochensilide A, paving the way for the first asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-spirochensilide A.Agricultural production and associated applications of nitrogen (N) fertilizers have increased dramatically in the last century, and current projections to 2050 show that demands will continue to increase as the human population grows. Applied in both organic and inorganic fertilizer forms, N is an essential nutrient in crop productivity. Increased fertilizer applications, however, create the potential for more N loss before plant uptake. One strategy for minimizing N loss is the use of enhanced efficiency fertilizers, fortified with a nitrification inhibitor, such as nitrapyrin. In soils and water, nitrapyrin inhibits the activity of ammonia monooxygenase, a microbial enzyme that catalyzes the first step of nitrification from ammonium to nitrite. Potential benefits of using nitrification inhibitors range from reduced nitrate leaching and nitrous oxide emissions to increased crop yield. The extent of these benefits, however, depends on environmental conditions and management practices. Thus, such benefits are not always realized. Additionally, nitrapyrin has been shown to transport off-field, and it is unknown what effects environmental nitrapyrin could have on nontarget organisms and the ecological nitrogen cycle. Here, we review the agronomic and environmental benefits and costs of nitrapyrin use and present a series of research questions and considerations to be addressed with future nitrification inhibitor research.Development of multicolor-emitting upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) is of significant importance for applications in optical encoding, anti-counterfeiting, display, and bioimaging. However, realizing the orthogonal three-primary color (TPC) upconversion luminescence in a single nanoparticle remains a huge challenge. Herein, we have rationally designed core-multishell-structured NaYF4 UCNPs through regulating the dopant concentration, composition of luminescent layers, and shell position and thickness, which are capable of emitting red, green, and blue luminescence with high color purity in response to ternary near-infrared quadrature excitations (1560/808/980 nm). Moreover, their high color purity is well retained with varying excitation power densities. This orthogonal TPC emissions property of such UCNPs endows them with great promise in the field of security. As a proof-of-concept, we have demonstrated the feasibility of combining such UCNPs with MnO2 nanosheets for information encryption and decryption.
