Article Abstract

Detecting myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in living organisms is important because MPO contributes to the pathogenesis of many diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory diseases, artherosclerosis, neurodegenerative disease, and some cancers. However, rapid and effective methods for the detection of basal MPO activity in living systems have not yet been reported. Herein, we report a near-infrared (NIR) emissive "turn-on" probe that can specifically bind to MPO and accurately measure MPO activity in living cells and in vivo via a rapid response to initial hypochlorous acid (HOCl), produced by MPO. Notably, could detect the basal level of MPO activity in human promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL-60) and could discriminate between MPO high-expression and low-expression cells. Furthermore, was successfully applied to in vivo imaging of MPO in MPO-dependent diseases, such as arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease.

Why transport matters: an update on carrier proteins in Apicomplexan parasites.

Curr Opin Microbiol

Cryptosporidiosis Laboratory, The Francis Crick Institute, London, United Kingdom. Electronic address:

The movement of molecules across the membranous barriers of a cell is fundamental to cellular homeostasis in every living organism. This vital process is facilitated through a mechanistically diverse class of proteins, collectively known as membrane transporters. Among these are so-called carrier proteins that can function in passive and active transport mechanisms.

Perylenediimide-Based Donor-Acceptor MOF for Sunlight-Driven Photocatalytic -α-C(sp)-H Bond Functionalization of Tetrahydroisoquinoline.

Inorg Chem

September 2025

Yunnan Key Laboratory of Crystalline Porous Organic Functional Materials, College of Chemical and Materials Engineering, Qujing Normal University, Qujing 655011, China.

Sequential assembly of donor-acceptor components at the molecular level within a MOF is an effective strategy to achieve efficient electron-hole separation for enhancing the activity of photocatalysts. Meanwhile, the highly efficient and selective functionalization of tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ) under mild conditions remains an urgent demand in both the scientific and industrial communities. This work reports a donor-acceptor MOF photocatalyst () constructed by the coordinated assembly of donor and acceptor components, in which a naphthalene unit serves as an electron donor and a perylenediimide unit as an electron acceptor.

Background: Despite advances in HIV care, viral load suppression (VLS) among adolescents living with HIV (ALHIV) in Uganda continue to lag behind that of adults, even with the introduction of dolutegravir (DTG)-based regimens, the Youth and Adolescent Peer Supporter (YAPS) model, and community-based approaches. Understanding factors associated with HIV viral load non-suppression in this population is critical to inform HIV treatment policy. This study assessed the prevalence and predictors of viral load non-suppression among ALHIV aged 10-19 years on DTG-based ART in Soroti City, Uganda.
