The title compound, C6H12N4. C9H16O4, undergoes several thermotropic phase transitions. The crystalline structure is layered, with sheets of azelaic acid linked to sheets of hexamethylenetetramine by hydrogen bonds. In the room-temperature phase, the azela ...
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear receptor that controls the expression of a large array of genes involved in adipocyte differentiation, lipid storage and insulin sensitization. PPARgamma is bound and activated b ...
The invention relates to a nucleotide sequence which comprises a sequence involved in the expression of the human Fatty Acid Transport Protein (hFATP) comprising the aminoacid sequence of the Figure ...
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Thiazolidinediones are reported to improve pancreatic islet morphology and beta-cell function in rodents, supporting the hypothesis of a direct action of thiazolidinediones on endocrine islet cells. In this study we examined the expression ...
Recent applications of the "naked sugar" methodology are reviewed. General methods have been developed to transform enantiomerically pure 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptyl derivatives into rare monosaccharides, carbasugars, into a new doubly-branched imino-dideoxy ...
DSA type electrodes (IrOx/Ti) were prepd. by induction heating technique which allows a rapid decompn. of the precursor under anaerobic conditions. With this type of electrode, an activation process is obsd. in cyclic voltammetry which can be related to th ...
IrO2 and boron-doped diamond electrodes were tested by preparative electrolysis of simple model compds. in acid medium. In oxidn. reactions of more complex mechanism than simple electron transfer, these electrodes are active only at potentials of simultane ...
PURPOSE: To optimize conditions for photodynamic detection (PDD) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) of bladder carcinoma, urothelial accumulation of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) and conditions leading to cell photodestruction were studied. MATERIALS AND METHODS: P ...
The lithium enolate 16 derived in 5 steps from the Diels-Alder adduct of furan to 1-cyanovinyl (1S)-camphanate [(+)-12: a "naked sugar" of the first generation] was reacted with (+)(1R,4S,5S,6S)-6-endo-chroro-3-methylidene-5-exo-phenylseleno-7-oxabic yclo[ ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear receptors and have been initially described as molecular targets for compounds which induce peroxisome proliferation. The interest of researchers for PPARs increased dramatically when these re ...
