Selective reduction of heteroaromatic compounds to partially hydrogenated, dearomatized molecules is a tantalizing task. A well-defined, air stable, and pyridine-based Cu(II) NNN pincer complex is developed, which catalyzes selective 1,2-reduction of quinolines. The unstable 1,2-hydrogenated quinolines are transformed into the corresponding amides and isolated in good yields. Mechanistic studies confirmed that the reaction proceeds via molecular species and the formation of an unexpected copper bimetallic intermediate, which facilitates the catalysis through metal-ligand cooperation.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have significantly advanced natural language processing (NLP), establishing new benchmarks across a wide range of tasks. However, their large parameter sizes present challenges for deployment on resource-constrained devices. Current compression techniques often treat all layers uniformly, disregarding the operational differences across layers, which can lead to varying effects on performance.

Study Question: Does exposure to a mixture of ambient air pollutants during specific exposure periods influence clinical pregnancy rates in women undergoing IVF/ICSI-embryo transfer (ET) cycles?
Summary Answer: The specific exposure period from ET to the serum hCG test was identified as a critical exposure window as exposure to sulfur dioxide (SO) or a combination of air pollutants was associated with a decreased likelihood of clinical pregnancy.
What Is Known Already: Exposure to a single pollutant may impact pregnancy outcomes in women undergoing ART. However, in daily life, individuals often encounter mixed pollution, and limited research exists on the effects of mixed air pollutants and the specific exposure periods.

We conducted this three-part study in healthy subjects to investigate the pharmacokinetics of tasurgratinib (orally available selective inhibitor of fibroblast growth factor receptor 1-3) and M2 (its major metabolite) under different conditions. In Part A, subjects received tasurgratinib 35 mg either fed with a high-fat meal or fasted. In Parts B and C, subjects received tasurgratinib 35 mg alone or with either rabeprazole (acid-reducing agent) 20 mg (Part B) or rifampin (strong CYP3A inducer) 600 mg (Part C).

We recently discovered that the Manech Tête Rousse (MTR) deficient homozygous haplotype 2 (MTRDHH2) probably carries a recessive lethal mutation in sheep. In this study, we fine-mapped this region through whole-genome sequencing of five MTRDHH2 heterozygous carriers and 95 non-carriers from various ovine breeds. We identified a single base pair duplication within the SLC33A1 gene, leading to a frameshift mutation and a premature stop codon (p.
