Article Abstract

Novel polyhalo 2,4-diaminoquinazolines 3a-3d were prepared by reacting polyhaloisophthalonitriles with guanidine carbonate under solvent-free conditions and in the absence of a catalyst with good yields (74-95%). A series of highly functionalized 2,4-diaminoquinazolines 4-5 were then synthesized based on 3a-3c. The anticancer activities of compounds 3-5 were evaluated in vitro against human cell lines such as Skov-3, HL-60, A431, A549, and HepG-2. Some of the compounds showed excellent cytotoxic activity and 5a was found to be the most potent derivative, with an IC(50) value lower than 2.5 microg/mL against the five tumor cell lines, making it more active than cisplatin. Representative compounds were also preliminarily evaluated as HIV-1 inhibitors in vitro, and 3c showed the most potent anti-HIV-1 activity with EC(50) values of 0.6 and 1.6 microg/mL, and TI values of >59.6 and 66.6, respectively.

At present, flexible sensors are a hot spot in research and experimental development, but the research on flexible sensors that can be used for human motion monitoring still needs to be deepened. In this work, the green material cellulose acetate (CA) was used as the matrix material, the film was made by electrospinning, crushed by a cell grinder and sodium alginate (SA) was added to promote the uniform dispersion of nanofibers in water, and then methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS) and MXene nanosheet dispersion were added to make it hydrophobic and good conductivity, and the aerogel precursor solution was prepared, and then the CA/SA/MTMS/MXene aerogel with directional holes was prepared by directional freeze-drying. As a flexible sensor material, it can be used for human wear, monitoring the electrical signals generated by the movement of human joints and other parts, and can still maintain a current of about 0.

Unveiling Ion-Transport Dynamics in 2D Nanofluidic Anion-Selective Membranes toward Osmotic Energy Harvesting.

Two-dimensional (2D) nanofluidic architectures with nanoconfined interlayer channels and excess surface charges have revolutionized membrane-based reverse electrodialysis systems, demonstrating highly efficient osmotic energy collection through strong electrostatic screening of electric double layer (EDL). However, the ion-transport dynamics in 2D nanofluidic anion-selective membranes (2D-NAMs) still remain unexplored. Here, we combine density functional theory and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to systematically explore ion transport in the 2D-NAMs.

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus poses a continuing global public health threat due to its outbreaks in poultry farms and zoonotic transmission from birds to humans. In the quest of effective therapeutics against H5N1 infection, antibodies with broad neutralizing activity have attracted significant attention. In this study, we employed a phage display technique to select and identify VHH antibodies with specific neutralizing activity against H5N1 hemagglutinin (HA) from an immune llama-derived antibody library.
