Article Abstract

Scale-up isolation of (+)-(5)-(8)-(14)-mycothiazole () from Vanuatu specimens of to semisynthesize (+)-(5)-(8)-8--acetyl-(14)-mycothiazole () revealed a new diastereomer, (-)-(5)-(8)-(14)-mycothiazole (). The structure of was determined using HRMS, NMR, and comparing optical rotation to (-)-(5)-(8)-(14)-mycothiazole () and . The maximum tolerated dose of in mice was 0.1 mg/kg. The IC of in PANC-1 and HepG2 cancer cell lines was 111.6 and 115.0 nM. Evaluation of in showed similar oxygen consumption compared to -, and all compounds significantly increased the lifespan. The orientation at Δ is crucial for picomolar cytotoxicity but not for mitochondrial inhibition.

A novel magnetic nanostructured molecularly imprinted polymer probe (FeO@MIP) was developed for the continuous detection of Ti/Fe. The synthesis employed 50 nm FeO nanoparticles as the core matrix, with Ti and Fe serving as template molecules. Functional monomers α-methylacrylic acid (MAA) and acrylamide (AM) were used, along with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as the crosslinking agent and 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as the polymerization initiator, utilizing a microwave-assisted procedure.

Probing non-equilibrium topological order on a quantum processor.

Nature

September 2025

TUM School of Natural Sciences, Physics Department, Technical University of Munich, Garching, Germany.

Out-of-equilibrium phases in many-body systems constitute a new paradigm in quantum matter-they exhibit dynamical properties that may otherwise be forbidden by equilibrium thermodynamics. Among these non-equilibrium phases are periodically driven (Floquet) systems, which are generically difficult to simulate classically because of their high entanglement. Here we realize a Floquet topologically ordered state theoretically proposed in ref.

Artificial nacre based on polydopamine functionalized graphene oxide nanosheets constrained palladium nanocluster with enhanced mechanical properties and catalytical functionalities.

Inspired by "the composition of catechol and amine groups in the adhesive proteins" of marine mussel and "brick-and-mortar" structure of nacre, we use polydopamine (PDA) as "mortar", graphene oxides (GO) nanosheets as "brick", and Pd ions as interfacial reinforcer, to fabricate nacre-like Pd enhanced PDA functionalized GO membranes (Pd@PDA/GO) with vacuum filtration-assisted assembly method. Meanwhile, in situ reduced Pd nanoclusters by PDA chains were well constrained within the resultant Pd@PDA/GO artificial nacre composites. Good interfacial adhesion with dense packing of the GO nanosheets was further confirmed with sub-nano level microstructure characterization by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy.

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles - From synthesis to nanomedicine.

Biochem Biophys Res Commun

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have emerged as powerful tools in nanomedicine owing to their heavy-metal-free composition, distinct magnetic properties, biocompatibility, and customizable surface chemistry. While traditionally employed as T-weighted MRI contrast agents, recent innovations have enabled the development of ultra-small SPIONs-such as exceedingly small SPIONs (ES-SPIONs) and single-nanometer iron oxide nanoparticles (SNIOs)-that offer T-weighted MRI capabilities, which are favored by radiologists for their superior anatomical clarity. This review highlights the synthesis of monodisperse SPIONs via thermal decomposition and controlled oxidation, as well as their functionalization with zwitterionic dopamine sulfonate (ZDS) ligands, which confer colloidal stability, minimal protein adsorption, and efficient renal clearance.

The development of multifunctional fluorescent organic materials capable of selective ion detection, subcellular targeting, and logical operations is a burgeoning area in chemical biology and materials science. Herein, we report the design and development of a novel acylhydrazone based fluorescent ligand (HSN·Cl), which exhibits a distinct "turn-on" emission response toward Zn ions and a subsequent "turn-off" response in the presence of sulfide ions (S). The molecular design incorporates structural elements that facilitate the ESIPT feature, conferring the probe with unique photophysical properties.
