The synthesis of a series of methacrylate side-chain liquid crystal polymers (SCLCPs) bearing biphenyl mesogen with different spacer lengths and a fixed tail, poly[ethyl 4′-((n-(methacryloyloxy)alkyl)oxy)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-carboxylate]s (n-PMLCM, n = 3, 4, 5, 6), in aqueous media by free radical miniemulsion polymerization is described. This method offers the advantage of producing high molar masses (>10⁵ Da) and full monomer conversion, not possible to achieve with conventional routes (solution polymerization). The resulting n-PMLCMs proved to have high thermal stability. The phase behaviors of the polymers were investigated by a combination of techniques including differential scanning calorimetry, polarized light microscopy, and small and wide angle X-ray scattering. The results show mesomorphic liquid crystalline behavior with a monolayer structure where the side-groups on both sides of the backbone would be interpenetrated. The liquid crystal phase transition of n-PMLCM follows the sequence smectic E (smectic E or smectic C for 4-PMLCM) ↔ smectic A ↔ isotropic liquid The transition temperatures and the associated entropy changes exhibit a distinct odd-even effect as the length and parity of the spacer are varied, with the odd members exhibiting the higher values. The high molar masses achievable using miniemulsion polymerization translate into a more perfect and stable ordering, characterized by larger lamellar domains and higher transition temperatures, than in low molar mass SCLCPs. Compared to polymeric liquid crystals with similar mesogens but shorter tails, we found that longer tails facilitate the ordering of the mesogens and allow more efficient packing around the backbones, imparting a high stability to the smectic phases formed.

Ahmed, Sabbir published the artcileDesign, synthesis and biochemical evaluation of AC ring mimics as novel inhibitors of the enzyme estrone sulfatase (ES), Recommanded Product: Ethyl 4′-hydroxy-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-carboxylate, the publication is Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (2003), 82(4-5), 425-435, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

We report the results of our study into a series of 4′-O-sulfamoyl-4-biphenyl based compounds as novel inhibitors of the enzyme estrone sulfatase (ES). From the results of the mol. modeling design process, it was suggested that these compounds would be able to mimic both the A and C rings of the steroid backbone, and thus possess inhibitory activity against ES. The results of the biochem. evaluation study show that these compounds are indeed good inhibitors, possessing greater inhibitory activity than COUMATE, but weaker inhibitory activity than EMATE or the tricyclic derivative of COUMATE, namely 667-COUMATE. Furthermore, the compounds are observed to be irreversible inhibitors.

Kang, Suk Hoon published the artcilePhotoimaging through in-Situ Photopolymerization of Heterobifunctional Mesogenic Compounds in Liquid Crystalline State, Category: esters-buliding-blocks, the publication is Macromolecules (Washington, DC, United States) (2007), 40(23), 8349-8354, database is CAplus.

A series of heterobifunctional mesogenic biphenyl esters having two different polymerizable groups, i.e., acryl and diacetylene groups, were synthesized and their thermal behaviors and polymerization investigated. All compounds showed enantiotropic transitions. Under POM, highly birefringent focal-conic fan textures appeared on heating and cooling from the isotropic melt. Compounds 6-8 having a Bu spacer between a biphenyl and a diacetylene group exhibited LC phases even at room temperature The x-ray diffractograms of compounds 6-8 showed a set of reflections in the small-angle region. They consisted of more than three sharp diffraction peaks with d spacings in the ratio of 1:1/2:1/3, showing that the compounds had well-defined smectic A structures. For the photoimaging a mixture of 6 and a photoinitiator (2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone, 4 wt %) was cast on a glass plate and sheared with a cover glass at room temperature to result in an LC monodomain. The acryl group was then selectively polymerized by irradiation with low-intensity 365 nm UV light to yield a polymer film. Subsequent UV irradiation at 254 nm using a 100 W high-pressure mercury arc lamp through a photomask produced conjugated polyacetylene chains in the irradiated area. The polydiacetylene chains were fluorescent, and the patterned image was directly visualized by fluorescence microscopy.

Brink, Madri published the artcileReduction of dietary crude protein and feed form: Impact on broiler litter quality, ammonia concentrations, excreta composition, performance, welfare, and meat quality, Safety of Propyl 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate, the publication is Animal Nutrition (2022), 291-303, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Nitrogen (N) excreted by poultry is converted to ammonia (NH3), presenting an environmental risk and a health risk to the farmer and animals. A study was performed to investigate the effect of reduced CP and feed form on broiler performance and welfare, meat and litter quality, N utilization, and NH3 concentrations at litter level. A total of 2,232 Ross 308 male broilers was divided into 6 treatments and 6 replicates, which was fed diets in both pellet and mash forms with different CP levels of 205.0 g/kg (H, high), 187.5 g/kg (M, intermediate) and 175.0 g/kg (L, low) in the grower phase and 195.0 g/kg (H), 180.0 g/kg (M) and 165.6 g/kg (L) in the finisher phase. Individual amino acids (AA) were supplemented to maintain digestible AA-to-digestible lysine ratios. Decreasing dietary CP content to 187.5 g/kg in the grower phase and 180.0 g/kg in the finisher phase reduced NH3 concentrations at litter level (P < 0.001), but a further reduction in dietary CP had no addnl. effect. Mash treatments had better litter qualities and lower incidences of foot and hock lesions than pellet treatments at d 38 (P < 0.001). In addition, treatments with reduced CP had lower incidence of foot lesions at d 38 (P < 0.001). Broilers fed pelleted diets had higher ADFI, ADG, and final BW, improved feed conversion ratio (FCR), and heavier carcasses (P < 0.001) than those fed mash diets over a production period of 39 d. Performance could not be maintained when birds were fed L CP pelleted diets. This study demonstrated that, with the supplementation of AA to meet requirements, the concentration of dietary CP can be reduced to 187.5 and 180.0 g/kg in the grower and finisher phases resp., without impairing broiler performance, meat yield and quality. Mash diets were favorable when considering the overall litter quality and welfare of the birds. However, they could not maintain the same broiler performance and slaughter yield as pelleted diets. Results from the present study may assist the poultry sector towards a socially acceptable low-emission farming system.

Kiselevsky, Dmitry B. published the artcileInvestigation of the Antioxidant Properties of the Quaternized Chitosan Modified with a Gallic Acid Residue Using Peroxidase that Produces Reactive Oxygen Species, Quality Control of 121-79-9, the publication is Biochemistry (Moscow) (2022), 87(2), 141-149, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Chitosan modified with a (2-hydroxy-3-trimethylammonium) Pr group and gallic acid residue, or quaternized chitosan with gallic acid (QCG), was synthesized. Antioxidant properties of the produced QCG have been investigated. Peroxidase in combination with NADH and salicyl hydroxamate (SHAM) caused consumption of oxygen and production of H₂O₂ in aqueous solution as a result of O₂ reduction in the peroxidase-oxidase reactions. The rates of O₂ consumption and H₂O₂ generation were reduced in the presence of QCG. The antioxidant Pr gallate (PG) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) had the same effect, but not the quaternized chitosan (QC) without gallic acid. The effect of chitosan derivatives on the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cells of pea leaf epidermis and on the cell death detected by the destruction of cell nuclei, was investigated. The QCG, QC, and SOD had no effect, while PG decreased the rate of ROS generation in the cells of the epidermis, which was induced by NADH with SHAM or by menadione. The QCG and QC prevented destruction of the guard cell nuclei in the pea leaf epidermis that was caused by NADH with SHAM or by KCN. The SOD had no effect on the destruction of nuclei, while the effect of PG depended on the inducer of the cell death. Suppression of the destruction of guard cell nuclei by chitosan derivatives was associated not with their antioxidant effect, but with the disruption of the plasma membrane of the cells. The results obtained have shown that QCG exhibits antioxidant properties in solutions, but does not prevent generation of ROS in the plant cells. The mechanism of antioxidant effect of QCG is similar to that of PG and SOD.

Vang, Le published the artcileSex Pheromones of Five Olethreutine Species (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) Associated with the Seedlings and Fruits of Mangrove Plants in the Ryukyu Islands, Japan: Identification and Field Evaluation, Safety of (Z)-Dodec-9-en-1-yl acetate, the publication is Journal of Chemical Ecology (2005), 31(4), 859-878, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The sex pheromones of three Cryptophlebia, one Centroxena, and one Eucosma species (Lepidoptera: Olethreutinae) inhabiting mangroves in the Ryukyu Islands, Japan, were studied with coupled gas chromatog.-electroantennog. detection, and GC-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The larvae of each Cryptophlebia species are specifically associated with viviparous seedlings from one of three mangrove Rhizophoraceae plants. Whereas three EAG-active alc. components, (Z)-8-dodecen-1-ol, (E)-8-dodecen-1-ol, and dodecan-1-ol, in a ratio of 100:12:4, were identified from the pheromone gland extract of female of C. horii (host: Bruguiera gymnorrhiza), two other sibling species produced the corresponding acetates, i.e., (Z)-8-dodecenyl acetate, (E)-8-dodecenyl acetate, and dodecyl acetate, in a 100:2:3 ratio from Cryptophlebia palustris (host: Rhizophora stylosa in Iriomote-jima Island) and in a 100:7:13 ratio from C. amamiana (host: Kandelia candel in Amami-oshima Island). The double bond positions of the monounsaturated components were confirmed by GC-MS analyses of their adducts with di-Me disulfide. On the other hand, the larvae of Centroxena sp. feed on fruits of Sonneratia alba, another mangrove plant in the Sonneratiaceae, and the extract of the female pheromone glands contained (8E,10E)-dodecadienyl acetate and dodecyl acetate in a ratio of 100:5. The double bond position of the diunsatd. compound was confirmed by GC-MS anal. of its adduct with 4-methyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione. (E)-9-Dodecenyl acetate was exclusively identified in the pheromone gland extract of Eucosma coniogramma females reared from seedlings of B. gymnorrhiza. Although the roles of minor components were not revealed by field tests, synthetic lures baited with the main pheromone component of each species successfully attracted the target males, confirming that the sex pheromone is one of the most important factors for their reproductive isolation.

Takagi, Daisuke published the artcileManganese toxicity disrupts indole acetic acid homeostasis and suppresses the CO₂ assimilation reaction in rice leaves, SDS of cas: 121-79-9, the publication is Scientific Reports (2021), 11(1), 20922, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Despite the essentiality of Mn in terrestrial plants, its excessive accumulation in plant tissues can cause growth defects, known as Mn toxicity. Mn toxicity can be classified into apoplastic and symplastic types depending on its onset. Symplastic Mn toxicity is hypothesised to be more critical for growth defects. However, details of the relationship between growth defects and symplastic Mn toxicity remain elusive. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the mol. mechanisms underlying symplastic Mn toxicity in rice plants. We found that under excess Mn conditions, CO2 assimilation was inhibited by stomatal closure, and both carbon anabolic and catabolic activities were decreased. In addition to stomatal dysfunction, stomatal and leaf anatomical development were also altered by excess Mn accumulation. Furthermore, indole acetic acid (IAA) concentration was decreased, and auxin-responsive gene expression analyses showed IAA-deficient symptoms in leaves due to excess Mn accumulation. These results suggest that excessive Mn accumulation causes IAA deficiency, and low IAA concentrations suppress plant growth by suppressing stomatal opening and leaf anatomical development for efficient CO2 assimilation in leaves.

Guo, Hao published the artcileComparison of functions of pheromone receptor repertoires in Helicoverpa armigera and Helicoverpa assulta using a Drosophila expression system, Recommanded Product: (Z)-Dodec-9-en-1-yl acetate, the publication is Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (2022), 103702, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Helicoverpa armigera and H. assulta are sympatric closely related species sharing two sex pheromone components, (Z)-11-hexadecenal (Z11-16:Ald) and (Z)-9-hexadecenal (Z9-16:Ald) but in opposite ratios, 97:3 and 3:97 resp. This feature makes them a feasible model for studying the evolution of pheromone coding mechanisms of lepidopteran insects. Despite a decade-long study to deorphanize the pheromone receptor (PR) repertoires of the two species, the comparison of the function of all PR orthologs between the two species is incomplete. Moreover, the ligands of OR14 and OR15 have so far not been found, likely due to the missing of the active ligand(s) in the compound panel and/or incompatibility of heterologous expression systems used. In the present study, we expressed the PR repertoires of both Helicoverpa species in Drosophila T1 neurons to comparatively study the function of PRs. Among those PRs, OR13, OR6, and OR14 of both species are functionally conserved and narrowly tuned, and the T1 neurons expressing each of them respond to Z11-16:Ald, (Z)-9-hexadecenol (Z9-16:OH), and (Z)-11-hexadecenyl acetate (Z11-16:Ac), resp. While HarmOR16-expressing neurons respond strongly to (Z)-9-tetradecenal (Z9-14:Ald) and (Z)-11-hexadecenol (Z11-16:OH), the neurons expressing HassOR16 mainly respond to Z9-14:Ald and also weakly respond to (Z)-9-tetradecenol (Z9-14:OH). Moreover, HarmOR14b-expressing neurons are activated by Z9-14:Ald, whereas HassOR14b-expressing neurons are sensitive to Z9-16:Ald, Z9-14:Ald, and (Z)-9-hexadecenol (Z9-16:OH). In addition, HarmOR15-expressing neurons are selectively responsive to Z9-14:Ald. However, the Drosophila T1 neurons expressing either HarmOR11 or HassOR11 are silent to all of the compounds tested. In summary, except for OR11, we have deorphanized all the PRs of these two Helicoverpa species using a Drosophila expression system and a large panel of pheromone compounds, thereby providing a valuable reference for parsing the code of peripheral coding of pheromones.
