Article Abstract
Conjugate addition of lithium dibenzylamide to methyl 5-isopropyl, 5-phenyl- and 5-tert-butyl-cyclopentene-1-carboxylates occurs with high levels of substrate control (>88% de), with preferential addition to the face of the cyclic alpha,beta-unsaturated acceptor anti- to the stereodirecting 5-alkyl substituent. Treatment of a range of methyl (+/-)-5-alkyl-cyclopentene-1-carboxylates with both lithium (+/-)-N-benzyl-N-alpha-methylbenzylamide and lithium (+/-)-N-3,4-dimethoxybenzyl-N-alpha-methylbenzylamide indicates significant enantiorecognition in their mutual kinetic resolutions, with preferential addition anti- to the 5-alkyl substituent, giving the 1,2-syn-1,5-anti-arrangement (E >16) after enolate protonation anti- to the amino functionality. The kinetic resolution of a range of methyl (+/-)-5-alkyl-cyclopentene-1-carboxylates with lithium (S)-N-benzyl-N-alpha-methylbenzylamide, and their efficient parallel kinetic resolution with a pseudoenantiomeric mixture of lithium (S)-N-benzyl-N-alpha-methylbenzylamide and lithium (R)-N-3,4-dimethoxybenzyl-N-alpha-methylbenzylamide are also demonstrated, giving a range of 5-alkyl-cispentacin derivatives in >98% de and high ee after N-deprotection.

Self-assembled DNA nanostructures have been popularly used to develop DNA-based electrochemical sensors by exploiting the nanoscale positioning capability of DNA origami. However, the impact of the electric field on the structural stability of the DNA origami framework and the activity of carried DNA probes remains to be explored. Herein, we employ DNA origami as structural frameworks for reversible DNA hybridization, and develop a single-molecule fluorescence imaging method to quantify electric field effects on DNA conformation and hybridization properties at the single-molecule level.

Neonicotinoid insecticides residuals pose a threat to aquatic ecosystems and human health. Imidaclothiz, as a novel neonicotinoid pesticide, the metabolic mechanisms in aquatic environments was unclear. This study investigated the degradation characteristics of imidaclothiz in both pure and actual water, and analyzed the photodegradation and hydrolysis metabolites of imidaclothiz in aquatic environments and assessed their toxicity.

Well-defined heterostructures exhibit emergent properties distinct from their single-phase constituents, enabling advances across diverse technologies. Typically classified as self-assembly and epitaxy, heterointerface formation is generally assumed to proceed unidirectionally and irreversibly at bulk scales. Here we use in situ electron microscopy at 298 K to visualize the heterostructure formation from nanoscale mixtures of intrinsically immiscible salts at ambient conditions, NaCl and NaI.

Purpose: We report the efficacy and safety of voretigene neparvovec (VN) as an adeno-associated viral vector-based gene therapy for Japanese patients with inherited retinal dystrophy caused by biallelic pathogenic variants (-retinopathy).
Design: Open-label, single arm, phase III clinical trial.
Participants: Four subjects were recruited based on the following criteria: (1) a clinical and molecular genetic diagnosis of -retinopathy; (2) age ≥4 years; (3) a best-corrected VA (BCVA) worse than 20/60 or a visual field (VF) <20° by a III4e isopter or equivalent; and (4) sufficient viable retinal cells by OCT or ophthalmoscopy.
A multimodal approach to assess a liposomal carrier's biodistribution, stability, and clearance.

Liposomal carriers, used for site-specific drug delivery, are being investigated for diagnostic approaches by replacing the therapeutic with an imaging contrast agent, exploring potential for selective treatment planning. There remains a critical need to improve assessment of biodistribution, stability, and clearance kinetics of liposomal carriers. This pilot study presents a multimodal approach in which liposome-encapsulated J-aggregated indocyanine green (ICG) dye (Lipo-JICG) is imaged with high spatial resolution using both photoacoustic (PA) imaging, to assess the absorbance characteristics of JICG and monomeric ICG, and cryofluorescence tomography (CFT), to measure ICG fluorescence.
