BODIPYs are highly potential photoactive agents for cancer theragnostics. The rational design of BODIPY-based photoactive nanodrugs with high efficiency and near-infrared (NIR) absorption is imperative. Herein, we developed a donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) organic photosensitizer (PS) (BODIPY, named NBB), which possessed strong absorption in the NIR region due to the multi-intersection of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT), photoinduced electron transfer (PET), and heavy atom effects. Through a nanoprecipitation method, NBB nanoparticles (NPs) were facilely prepared. The as-prepared NBB NPs exhibited favorable water-stability and photostability. In particular, the outstanding photon absorption capacity endows the NPs with high photothermal conversion efficiency (η = 53.8%) and active singlet oxygen (1O2) generation ability upon 808 nm laser irradiation, and promotes their tumour inhibition efficiency via the combination of photothermal/photodynamic therapy (half-maximal inhibitory concentration IC50 = 8.11 and 7.77 μM for HeLa and HepG2 cells, respectively). Together with the favorable synthetic yield and excellent antitumour effect, we envision that this exploration can provide beneficial guidance for the clinical translation of BODIPY-based PSs for phototherapy.This work reports on the chiral structure fluctuations of peptide clusters at the early stages of aggregation in a coarse-grained peptide model. Our model reproduces a variety of aggregate structures, from disordered to crystal-like, that are observed experimentally. Unexpectedly, our molecular dynamics simulations showed that the small peptide cluster undergoes chiral structure fluctuations although the underlying implicit solvent model does not assume the chirality of peptides. The chiral fluctuations are quantified through a cluster twist parameter. A simple model is presented where the twist parameter undergoes a stochastic diffusion on a 1D potential surface. The shape of the potential surface changes with the cluster size. The model shows semi-quantitative agreement with the simulations. We hypothesize that the chiral fluctuations at the early stages of peptide aggregation can contribute to the selection of the final fibril structures.Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant, progressive neurodegenerative disease with a distinct phenotype. It occurs due to a mutation in the huntingtin (or IT19) gene with an abnormal CAG repeat, leading to a variable length N-terminal polyglutamine chain (poly-Q). Like most neurodegenerative diseases, HD is characterized by the abnormal deposition and aggregation of proteins in the cell, which impairs the proteostasis and disrupts cellular homeostasis. In this study, we used Caenorhabditis elegans as an animal model due to its easy genetic manipulation and high homology of genes and signaling pathways with mammals. Worms were exposed to diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)2 at 25, 50 and 100 μM, and then we analyzed the polyQ aggregation, neurodegeneration, touch response, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, lifespan and health span. In addition, we analyzed the involvement of the transcription factor DAF-16, a FOXO-ortholog, and the downstream heat-shock protein-16.2 (HSP-16.2) and superoxide dismutase-3 (SOD-3). Our data demonstrate that chronic treatment with (PhSe)2 reduced polyQ aggregation in muscle and polyQ mediated neuronal cell death of sensory neurons ASH, as well as maintaining the neuronal function. In addition, (PhSe)2 decreased ROS levels and extended the lifespan and health span of wild type and PolyQ mutant worms. The mechanism proposed is the activation of DAF-16, HSP-16.2 and SOD-3 in whole body tissues to increase the antioxidant capacity and regulation of proteostasis, decreasing PolyQ aggregation and toxicity and reducing ROS levels, leading to an increase in lifespan, and healthspan. Our findings provide new clues for treatment strategies for neurodegenerative diseases and other diseases caused by age-related protein aggregation.Through the strategy of F/H substitution, we precisely designed the highest-Tc (phase transition temperature) organic enantiomeric ferroelectrics, (R)- and (S)-(N,N-dimethyl-3-fluoropyrrolidinium) iodide, of which the Tc reaches up to 470 K, far beyond those of other enantiomeric ferroelectrics and also the commercial ferroelectric BaTiO3.The synthesis of primary, secondary and tertiary 18O-enriched alcohols from readily available 16O-alcohols via a Mitsunobu esterification and hydrolysis is described. The method is further exemplified in the labelling of the active pharmaceutical ingredient, dropropizine and is shown to be tolerant of modern, separation friendly Mitsunobu reagents.This paper explores multi-component gelation systems containing two low-molecular-weight gelators and a polymer gelator. By controlled spatial and temporal application of different triggers - physical and chemical - it is possible to sequentially assemble gel networks, with a degree of self-sorting. A photo-patterned gel with four different domains was fabricated from a complex mixture of components, with the history of each domain programming the gel.Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) poses a serious threat to people's health worldwide. Artesunate (ART), one of the classical antimalarial drugs, has recently been shown to exert significant cytotoxicity in various cancers, but its bioavailability is low. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/zanubrutini-bgb-3111.html Cyclometalated iridium(iii) complexes have emerged as a promising class of anticancer therapeutic agents. Herein, through conjugation of two of them, three novel Ir(iii)-ART conjugates, [Ir(C-N)2(bpy-ART)](PF6) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, C-N = 2-phenylpyridine (ppy, Ir-ART-1), 2-(2-thienyl)pyridine (thpy, Ir-ART-2), and 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyridine (dfppy, Ir-ART-3)) have been synthesized, and their potential as anti-HCC agents was evaluated. We demonstrate that Ir-ART-1-3 display higher cytotoxicity against HCC cell lines than normal liver cells, and they can especially locate to mitochondria of HepG2 cells and induce a series of mitochondria-mediated apoptosis events. Moreover, Ir-ART-1-3 can regulate the cell cycle and inhibit metastasis of HepG2 cells. Finally, in vivo antitumor evaluation also demonstrates the inhibitory activity of Ir-ART-1 on tumor growth.
