Compound 1 features a 3D framework with 4-connected hxg-d topological network, compound 2 is comprised of 2D 44-sql-type sheets, and the adjacent 2D sheets are further packed into a 3D supramolecular architecture via intermolecular hydrogenbonding interactions, and compound 3 is a 3D framework with 4-fold interpenetrating dia topology. The structural comparison of these three compounds demonstrates that the topological variations can be well controlled by employing aliphatic dicarboxylate ligands with different spacer lengths. Moreover, the thermal stabilities and photoluminescent properties of them were also studied in detail.展开更多

Preincubation of rat liver nuclei with DDB (1 mmol.L-1) resulted in 60% inhibition of binding of 3H-benzo (a) pyrene to nuclear DNA. Unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) induced by aflatoxin BI (10^(-7) mol.L-1) in freshly isolated rat hepatocytes was also inhibited by DDB (10^(-6)-10^(-3)mol.L-1). Oral administration of DDB at 200 mg.kg-1 once daily for 3 d induced a significant increase of liver cytosol glutathione-S-transferase and microsomal UDPG-transferase activity in mice. These results indicate that DDB is able to directly or indirectly antagonize certain carcinogen-induced DNA damages.展开更多

Two new complexes [Cd_2L_2（ATA）]（1） and [Cd_2L_2（BPDC）·2MeO H· 4H_2O]（2） with distinct 3D frameworks were obtained. In complex 1, ligands ATA bridge the 1D Cd（Ⅱ）-L infinite chains into a 3D polymeric coordination network. Complex 2 is a 3D porous framework, in which adjacent 2D Cd（Ⅱ）-L coordination layers were linked together by the coor- dinated BPDC ligands. The variant structures of two complexes indicate that the skeleton of dicarboxylate anions plays a great role in the assembly of such different frameworks. In addition, the photoluminescent properties（fluorescent emission, lifetime, and quantum yield） of polymers 1 and 2 were also investigated in the solid state.展开更多

The measured systems were correlated by UNIFAC group contribution method. A new main group （aromatic ester, ACCOO） was defined to express the activity coefficients of the aromatic ester. New interaction parameters of the ACCOO group were expressed as the first-order function of temperature and were determined from the experimental data. The calculated results for the new interaction parameters were satisfactory. The measured systems were also correlated with the Wilson and 2-h models, and the results were compared with those of the UNIFAC model.展开更多

They exhibit a 1-D zigzag chain, which can be linked to generate a 2-D layer via hydrogen bonding interactions （C--H＇＂O）. Moreover, electrochemical behavior reveals that the redox reaction of 3-CPE is a surface-controlled reaction.

Subcellular localizations of these fusion proteins are observed by laser confocal microscope to determine the localization signal of the SDCT1 protein. Duplex PCR analysis validates that the fusion protein genes have been in- tegrated into the genome of HKC. Western blot indicates that the fusion proteins have been ex- pressed in HKC. Confocal microscopy analysis shows that human SDCT1 predominantly locates on the plasma membrane, which is consistent with the results predicted by bioinformatics ap- proach; in HKC transfected with N-terminal truncated SDCT1 gene, the green fluorescence is mainly distributed on the plasma membrane; in HKC transfected with C-terminal truncated SDCT1 gene, the green fluorescence is mainly distributed in the cytoplasm. EGFP/SDCT1 mRNAs obtained by in vitro transcription are microinjected into Xenopus laevis oocytes for ex- pression and the trans-membrane currents are measured by using two-microelectrode volt- age-clamp technique. Na+ inward currents are present on cellular membrane of the injected oo- cytes. Immunohistochemical staining shows that human SDCT1 proteins are expressed on lu- men membrane of the renal proximal tubule, but are negative in distal tubule, collecting duct, renal interstitium and glomerulus. The above-mentioned studies suggest that human SDCT1 protein is located on the lumen membrane of the renal proximal tubule, the C-terminal sequence of the SDCT1 is required for delivery and targeting localization, and the plasma membrane lo- calization signal of the SDCT1 protein maybe locate in the C-terminal sequence.展开更多

Methods： Wistar rat model of CIA was set up using bovine collagen type H. Fifty rats were divided into five groups randomly： normal, CIA model, DDB treatment, methotrexate （MTX） treatment, and combined DDB＋MTX treatment. Ankle joints of rats were imaged with digital X-ray machine to show the destruction of joints. Fore and hind paw and knee joints were removed above the ankle joint then processed for haematoxylin and eosin staining. Plasma levels of vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF）, platelet derived growth factor, interleukin-8 （IL-8）, IL-4, tumor necrosis factor α （TNF-α）, and cyclooxygenase-2 （COX-2） were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Nitric oxide levels were detected by Griess reagent. Results： Compared with the CIA model group, a remarkable reduction in various angiogenic （VEGF and IL-8） and inflammatory mediators （TNF-α, IL-4 and COX-2） after treatment with DDB either alone or combined with MTX （P〈0.05 or P〈0.01）. Histopathological and X-ray findings were confirmatory to the observed DDB anti-arthritic effect. The DDB-treated group showed amelioration in signs of arthritis which appeared essentially similar to normal. Conclusion： Our data shed light on the therapeutic efficacy of DDB in experimental rheumatoid arthritis （RA） compared with a choice drug （MTX） and it may be offered as a second-line drug in the treatment of RA.展开更多

The key step is the synthesis of monomer of (-DDB and (-DDB for coupling. (-DDB, (-DDB have different yields in Ullmann coupling reaction under the same condition.

The former is -175.76966KJ/mol and the later is -203.21246KJ/mol. This is in agreement with the fact that (-DDB has higher yield than (-DDB.展开更多

The experimental results showed that DDB (200μg/106 cells) efficiently protected the hepatocytes against carbon tetrachloride (CC14 10 mrnol.L-1) and D-galactosamine (1 mmol.L-1) induced damages. Membranal lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde, MDA formation) and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) release from the hepatocytes were markedly decreased. The damage of the cell surfaces of the hepatocytes were also reduced as seen under a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Pretreatment with DDB (300 mg-kg-1) orally ameliorated the reduction of liver glycogen and blood glucose caused by ip injection of D-galactosamine (800 mg-kg-1) in mice. When normal rats were given DDB 300 mg-kg-1 once daily for 10 d, the free ribosomal protein and RNA in the liver increased significantly. These results indicate that DDB is of beneficial effects on both damaged and normal hepatocytes.展开更多
