Measuring changes in substrate utilization in the myocardium in response to fasting using hyperpolarized [1-(13)C]butyrate and [1-(13)C]pyruvate

Arnaud Comment, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen

Cardiac dysfunction is often associated with a shift in substrate preference for ATP production. Hyperpolarized (HP) (13)C magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) has the unique ability to detect real-time metabolic changes in vivo due to its high sensitivit ...

Direct Conversion of Mono- and Polysaccharides into 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Using Ionic-Liquid Mixtures

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Zhaofu Fei, Ning Yan, Sviatlana Siankevich, Philip Gregory Jessop

Platform chemicals are usually derived from petrochemical feedstocks. A sustainable alternative commences with lignocellulosic biomass, a renewable feedstock, but one that is highly challenging to process. Ionic liquids (ILs) are able to solubilize biomass ...

Solvent Effects on the Encapsulation of Divalent Ions by Benzo-18-Crown-6 and Benzo-15-Crown-5

Thomas Rizzo, Yoshiya Inokuchi

We measure UV photodissociation (UVPD) spectra of cold benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) and benzo-18-crown-6 (B18C6) complexes with divalent ions (M2+ = Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, and Mn2+), solvated with an H2O or a CH3OH molecule: M2+·B15C5·H2O, M2+·B15C5·CH3OH, M2+·B18C ...

Volume refractometry of liquids using stable optofluidic Fabry-Perot resonator with curved surfaces

Maurine Malak Karam Awadallah

This work reports a simple, miniaturized optical sensing module for liquid refractometry. It is based on a stable Fabry-Perot resonator consisting of two silicon cylindrical mirrors with a cylindrical lens in the core. The lens is formed by a capillary tub ...

Enhanced Plasmid DNA Utilization in Transiently Transfected CHO-DG44 Cells in the Presence of Polar Solvents

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Yashas Rajendra, Divor Kiseljak, Sowmya Balasubramanian

Although the protein yields from transient gene expression (TGE) with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells have recently improved, the amount of plasmid DNA (pDNA) needed for transfection remains relatively high. We describe a strategy to reduce the pDNA amou ...

Synthesis, growth and characterization of 4-bromo-4′-nitrobenzylidene aniline (BNBA): a novel nonlinear optical material with a (3+1)-dimensional incommensurately modulated structure

Gervais Chapuis, Alla Arakcheeva, Philip Pattison

The organic nonlinear optical material of 4-bromo-4'-nitrobenzylidene aniline (BNBA, C13H9BrN2O2), a new derivative of benzylideneaniline family, was synthesized and purified by repeated recrystallization. Single crystals of BNBA were grown in acetone solv ...

Resistance to Diet-Induced Obesity and Associated Metabolic Perturbations in Haploinsufficient Monocarboxylate Transporter 1 Mice

Pierre Magistretti, Sylvain Eric Lengacher, Luc Pellerin

The monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1 or SLC16A1) is a carrier of short-chain fatty acids, ketone bodies, and lactate in several tissues. Genetically modified C57BL/6J mice were produced by targeted disruption of the mct1 gene in order to understand the ...

Structurally Diverse Cyclisation Linkers Impose Different Backbone Conformations in Bicyclic Peptides

Christian Heinis, Alessandro Angelini, Shiyu Chen, Julia Morales Sanfrutos

Combinatorial libraries of structurally diverse peptide macrocycles offer a rich source for the development of high-affinity ligands to targets of interest. In this work we have developed linkers for the generation of genetically encoded bicyclic peptides ...
