https://www.selleckchem.com/products/sanguinarine-chloride.html We describe highly efficient interstrand photocrosslinking of a DNA duplex containing 5-chloro-2'-deoxy-4-thiouridine (ClSdU) in one strand, proceeding via a two-step photochemical cascade, involving the formation of a thermally reversible crosslink between ClSdU and thymidine in the target strand and its subsequent conversion to a thermally stable fluorescent crosslink. These results show that ClSdU has great potential to be a valuable DNA photo-crosslinking reagent for chemical biology applications.Cases of respiratory diseases have been increasing around the world, affecting the health and quality of life of millions of people every year. Chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) and acute respiratory infections (ARIs) are responsible for many hospital admissions and deaths, requiring sophisticated treatments that facilitate the delivery of therapeutics to specific target sites with controlled release. In this context, different nanoparticles (NPs) have been explored to match this demand, such as lipid, liposome, protein, carbon-based, polymeric, metallic, oxide, and magnetic NPs. The use of NPs as drug delivery systems can improve the efficacy of commercial drugs due to their advantages related to sustained drug release, targeting effects, and patient compliance. The current review presents an updated summary of recent advances regarding the use of NPs as drug delivery systems to treat diseases related to the respiratory tract, such as CRDs and ARIs. The latest applications presented in the literature were considered, and the opportunities and challenges of NPs in the drug delivery field are discussed.With the rapid development of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, the search for highly efficient electrode materials has become an ever-growing need for high power density and fast charge-discharge rate to meet the future challenges of energy storage. Two-dimensional MXenes exhibit good electrical and elect
