RESUMO

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The aim of this study was to investigate whether higher dietary intake of marine n-3 fatty acids during pregnancy is associated with a lower risk of type 1 diabetes in children. METHODS: The Danish National Birth Cohort (DNBC) and the Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study (MoBa) together include 153,843 mother-child pairs with prospectively collected data on eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) intake during pregnancy from validated food frequency questionnaires. Type 1 diabetes diagnosis in children (n=634) was ascertained from national diabetes registries. RESULTS: There was no association between the sum of EPA and DHA intake during pregnancy and risk of type 1 diabetes in offspring (pooled HR per g/day of intake: 1.00, 95% CI 0.88, 1.14), with consistent results for both the MoBa and the DNBC. Robustness analyses gave very similar results. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: Initiation of a trial of EPA and DHA during pregnancy to prevent type 1 diabetes in offspring should not be prioritised.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) emerged as a novel approach for the treatment of localized prostate cancer (PCa). However, prospective studies on HIFU-related outcomes and predictors of treatment failure (TF) remain scarce. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a multinational prospective cohort study among patients undergoing HIFU therapy for localized, low- to intermediate-risk PCa. Follow-up data on serial prostate specific antigen (PSA), multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI), targeted/systematic biopsies, adverse events and functional outcomes were collected. The primary endpoint was TF, defined as histologically confirmed PCa requiring whole-gland salvage treatment. Uni- and multi-variable adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated using Cox proportional hazard regression models. RESULTS: At baseline, mean (standard deviation) age was 64.14 (7.19) years, with the majority of patients showing T-stage 1 (73.9%) and International Society of Urological Pathology grading system Grade 2 (58.8%). PSA nadir (median, 1.70 ng/mL) was reached after 6 months. Of all patients recruited, 16% had clinically significant PCa, as confirmed by biopsy, of which 13.4% had TF. Notably, T-stage and number of positive cores at initial biopsy were independent predictors of TF during follow-up (HR [95% CI] 1.27 [1.02-1.59] and 5.02 [1.80-14.03], respectively). Adverse events were minimal (17% and 8% early and late adverse events, respectively), with stable or improved functional outcomes in the majority of patients. CONCLUSIONS: This interim analysis of a multinational study on HIFU therapy for the management of low-to-intermediate-risk PCa reveals good functional outcomes, minimal adverse events and low incidence of TF over the short-term. Data on long-term outcomes, specifically as it relates to oncological outcomes, are awaited eagerly.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To assess the distribution of key mutations across tumour sizes in clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), and secondarily to examine the prognostic impact of aggressive mutations in smaller ccRCCs. PATIENT AND METHODS: The distribution of mutations (VHL, PBRM1, SETD2, BAP1 and CDKN2A loss) across tumour sizes was assessed in 1039 ccRCCs treated with nephrectomy in cohorts obtained from the Tracking Cancer Evolution (TRACERx), The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Cancer Genomics of the Kidney (CAGEKID) projects. Logistic regression was used to model the presence of each mutation against size. In our secondary analysis, we assessed a subset of ccRCCs ≤7 cm for associations of key aggressive mutations (SETD2, BAP1, and CDKN2A loss) with metastasis, invasive disease and overall survival, while controlling for size. A subset of localised tumours ≤7 cm was also used to assess associations with recurrence after nephrectomy. RESULTS: On logistic regression, each 1-cm increase in tumour size was associated with aggressive mutations, SETD2, BAP1, and CDKN2A loss, at odds ratios (ORs) of 1.09, 1.10 and 1.19 (P < 0.001), whereas no significant association was observed between tumour size and PBRM1 (OR 1.02; P = 0.23). VHL was mildly negatively associated with a 1-cm increase in size (OR 0.95; P = 0.01). Among tumours ≤7 cm, SETD2 and CDKN2A loss were associated with metastatic disease at ORs of 3.86 and 3.84 (P < 0.05) while controlling for tumour size. CDKN2A loss was associated with worse overall survival, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 2.19 (P = 0.03). Among localised tumours ≤7 cm, SETD2 was associated with worse recurrence-free survival (HR 2.00; P = 0.03). CONCLUSION: Large and small ccRCCs are genomically different. Aggressive mutations, namely, SETD2, BAP1, and CDKN2A loss, are rarely observed in small ccRCCs and are observed more frequently in larger tumours. However, when present in tumours ≤7 cm, SETD2 mutations and CDKN2A loss were still independently associated with invasive disease, metastasis, worse survival, and recurrence after resection, after controlling for size.

RESUMO

Herein, we describe a novel reaction between C-2-substituted indoles and 2-nitroacetophenones leading to a variety of indole-containing heterocyclic scaffolds. At 60 °C in AcOH with H2SO4 as catalyst, C-2 aryl indoles give 3-(2-nitrovinyl)-indoles with high Z or E geometric selectivity depending on the type of substrate utilized. These compounds undergo an electrocyclization process in a sealed vial in a microwave apparatus in DMF at 250 °C to give benzo[a]carbazoles and naphtho[2,1-a]carbazoles depending on whether the C-2 aromatic moiety is phenyl or naphthyl. Utilization of 2-methylindoles in the reaction with 2-nitroacetophenones and performing the reaction in a sealed vial in a microwave apparatus in AcOH at 200 °C leads to 1-hydroxy-ß-carbolines. Selected compounds from each scaffold were tested for antiproliferative activities against MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer cells under normoxic and hypoxic conditions, and three compounds belonging to the 3-(2-nitrovinyl)-indole and 1-hydroxy-ß-carboline series were identified to have single-digit micromolar IC50 values.

RESUMO

We previously studied 2-aryl-2-(3-indolyl)acetohydroxamates as potential agents against melanoma. These compounds were ineffective in a mouse melanoma xenograft model, most likely due to unfavorable metabolic properties, specifically due to glucuronidation of the N-hydroxyl of the hydoxamic moiety. In the present work, we prepared a series of analogues, 2-aryl-2-(3-indolyl)acetamides and their oxazoline derivatives, which do not contain the N-hydroxyl group. We investigated the structure-activity relationship in both series of compounds and found that the 2-naphthyl is a preferred group at C-2 of the indole in the amide series, whereas the tetralin moiety is favorable in the same location in the oxazoline series. Overall, three compounds in the amide series have GI50 values as low as 0.2-0.3 µM and the results clearly indicate that the N-hydroxyl group is not necessary for high potency in vitro.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Infections in early childhood have been associated with risk of celiac disease (CD) and type 1 diabetes (T1D). We investigated whether this is driven by susceptibility genes for autoimmune disease by comparing infection frequency by genetic susceptibility variants for CD or T1D. METHODS: We genotyped 373 controls and 384 children who developed CD or T1D in the population-based Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort study (MoBa) study for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DQ, FUT2, SH2B3, and PTPN22, and calculated a weighted non-HLA genetic risk score (GRS) for CD and T1D based on over 40 SNPs. Parents reported infections in questionnaires when children were 6 and 18 months old. We used negative binomial regression to estimate incidence rate ratio (IRR) for infections by genotype. RESULTS: HLA genotypes for CD and T1D or non-HLA GRS for T1D were not associated with infections. The non-HLA GRS for CD was associated with a nonsignificantly lower frequency of infections (aIRR: 0.95, 95% CI: 0.87-1.03 per weighted allele score), and significantly so when restricting to healthy controls (aIRR: 0.89, 0.81-0.99). Participants homozygous for rs601338(A;A) at FUT2, often referred to as nonsecretors, had a nonsignificantly lower risk of infections (aIRR: 0.91, 95% CI: 0.83-1.01). SH2B3 and PTPN22 genotypes were not associated with infections. The association between infections and risk of CD (OR: 1.15 per five infections) was strengthened after adjustment for HLA genotype and non-HLA GRS (OR: 1.24). CONCLUSIONS: HLA variants and non-HLA GRS conferring susceptibility for CD were not associated with increased risk of infections in early childhood and is unlikely to drive the observed association between infections and risk of CD or T1D in many studies.

RESUMO

A new variant of Fisher indole synthesis involving Bronsted acid-catalyzed hydrohydrazination of unactivated terminal and internal acetylenes with arylhydrazines is reported. The use of polyphosphoric acid alone either as the reaction medium or in the presence of a co-solvent appears to provide the required balance for activating the C-C triple bond towards the nucleophilic attack of the hydrazine moiety without unrepairable reactivity loss of the latter due to competing amino group protonation. Additionally, the formal hydration of acetylenes to the corresponding ketones occurs under the same conditions, making it an alternative approach for generating carbonyl groups from alkynes.

RESUMO

New [1,2]dithiolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5-carboxamides were synthesized through the reaction of dithiomalondianilide (N,N'-diphenyldithiomalondiamide) with 3-aryl-2-cyanoacrylamides or via a three-component reaction involving aromatic aldehydes, cyanoacetamide and dithiomalondianilide in the presence of morpholine. The structure of 6-amino-4-(2,4-dichloro- phenyl)-7-phenyl-3-(phenylimino)-4,7-dihydro-3H-[1,2]dithiolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5-carboxamide was confirmed using X-ray crystallography. To understand the reaction mechanism in detail, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed with a Grimme B97-3c composite computational scheme. The results revealed that the rate-limiting step is a cyclization process leading to the closure of the 1,4-dihydropyridine ring, with an activation barrier of 28.8 kcal/mol. Some of the dithiolo[3,4-b]pyridines exhibited moderate herbicide safening effects against 2,4-D. Additionally, ADMET (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, Toxicity) parameters were calculated and molecular docking studies were performed to identify potential protein targets.

RESUMO

A highly diastereoselective tandem reaction of 2'-nitrochalcones is reported, involving Michael addition and a subsequent ipso-substitution of the nitro group to produce 1-tetralones with two contiguous chiral centers. A related annulation reaction of 2'-nitrochalcones with potassium cyanide affording 1-indanones with a C3-quaternary chiral center is also demonstrated.

RESUMO

A practical, one-pot approach to 3-anilino-4-(het)arylmaleimides by simple heating of aqueous DMSO solution of 2'-nitrochalcones with potassium cyanide in the presence of formic acid has been developed. This new reaction provides effective access to a variety of ß-substituted α-aminomaleimides which have recently become a subject of growing interest as small, easily modified and environmentally responsive fluorescent probes.

RESUMO

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane vesicles released by cells into the extracellular space. EVs mediate cell-to-cell communication through local and systemic transportation of biomolecules such as DNA, RNA, transcription factors, cytokines, chemokines, enzymes, lipids, and organelles within the human body. EVs gained a particular interest from cancer biology scientists because of their role in the modulation of the tumor microenvironment through delivering bioactive molecules. In this respect, EVs represent an attractive therapeutic target and a means for drug delivery. The advantages of EVs include their biocompatibility, small size, and low immunogenicity. However, there are several limitations that restrict the widespread use of EVs in therapy, namely, their low specificity and payload capacity. Thus, in order to enhance the therapeutic efficacy and delivery specificity, the surface and composition of extracellular vesicles should be modified accordingly. In this review, we describe various approaches to engineering EVs, and further discuss their advantages and disadvantages to promote the application of EVs in clinical practice.

RESUMO

The synthesis of novel, highly functionalized 5-hydroxy 3-pyrrolin-2-ones via a two-step procedure involving an addition reaction between KCN and corresponding chalcones, followed by ring condensation of the obtained ß-cyano ketones with het(aryl)aldehydes under basic conditions is described. This protocol enables the preparation of various 3,5-di-aryl/heteroaryl-4-benzyl substituted α,ß-unsaturated γ-hydroxy butyrolactams, which are subjects of significant interest to synthetic organic and medicinal chemistry.

RESUMO

The ß-carboline motif is common in drug discovery and among numerous biologically active natural products. However, its synthetic preparation relies on multistep sequences and heavily depends on the type of substitution required in the core of the desired ß-carboline target. Herein, we demonstrate that this structural motif can be accessed with the microwave-assisted electrocyclic cyclization of heterotrienic aci (alkylideneazinic acid) forms of 3-nitrovinylindoles. The reaction can start with 3-nitrovinylindoles themselves under two sets of conditions. The first one involves microwave irradiation of butanolic solutions of 3-nitrovinylindoles, whereas the second one consists of prior Boc protection of indolic nitrogen, where the protecting group cleanly comes off during the course of the reaction. Alternatively, the reaction can start with 3-nitrovinylindoles prepared in situ using various processes. Finally, the reaction may utilize indoles with ß-nitrostyrenes, likely involving the intermediacy of spirocyclic oxazolines, which rearrange to similar heterotrienic systems undergoing cyclization to ß-carbolines. As part of this study, several natural products, namely, alkaloids norharmane, harmane, and eudistomin N, were synthesized.

RESUMO

Endothelial dysfunction is one of the major factors in the pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome (MetS), and its molecular mechanisms are not completely understood. The present study aimed to examine the connection between nuclear factor2-related factor2 (Nrf2), nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB), heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), and plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in people with MetS. Participants in the study were as follows: with MetS (n = 30) and without MetS (Control) (n = 14). Expression of Nrf2, NF-kB, and HO-1 was measured in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Plasma ADMA was determined using the ELISA technique and MDA via the thiobarbituric acid method. Our study showed that mRNA of NF-kB, Nrf2, and HO-1 levels in PBMCs in the MetS group were significantly higher than in the controls by 53%, 130%, and 185% (p < 0.05), respectively. Similarly, elevated levels of MDA (by 78%, p < 0.001) and ADMA (by 18.7%, p < 0.001) were established in the MetS group. Our findings show the importance of transcription factor Nrf2, playing an integral role in the protection of the endothelium, and of NF-κB, a transcription factor mediating the inflammatory response in MetS. Knowledge of complex cellular-molecular mechanisms would allow the use of biomarkers such as Nrf2, NF-kB, HO-1, and ADMA for the assessment of endothelial dysfunction in clinical practice.

RESUMO

The purpose of this work was to prepare new isatin- and monothiomalondiamide-based indole derivatives, as well as to study the properties of the new compounds. The four-component reaction of 5-R-isatins (R = H, CH3), malononitrile, monothiomalonamide (3-amino-3-thioxo- propanamide) and triethylamine in hot EtOH yields a mixture of isomeric triethylammonium 6'-amino-3'-(aminocarbonyl)-5'-cyano-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-1'H- and 6'-amino-3'-(aminocarbonyl)- 5'-cyano-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3'H-spiro[indole-3,4'-pyridine]-2'-thiolates. The reactivity and structure of the products was studied. We found that oxidation of spiro[indole-3,4'-pyridine]-2'-thiolates with DMSO-HCl system produced only acidification products, diastereomeric 6'-amino-5'-cyano-5-methyl-2-oxo-2'-thioxo-1,2,2',3'-tetrahydro-1'H-spiro-[indole-3,4'-pyridine]- 3'-carboxamides, instead of the expected isothiazolopyridines. The alkylation of the prepared spiro[indole-3,4'-pyridine]-2'-thiolates upon treatment with N-aryl α-chloroacetamides and α-bromoacetophenones proceeds in a regioselective way at the sulfur atom. In the case of α-bromoacetophenones, ring-chain tautomerism was observed for the S-alkylation products. According to NMR data, the compounds consist of a mixture of stereoisomers of 2'-amino-6'-[(2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)thio]-3'-cyano-2-oxo-1'H-spiro[indoline-3,4'-pyridine]-5'-carboxamides and 5'-amino-3'-aryl-6'-cyano-3'-hydroxy-2-oxo-2',3'-dihydrospiro[indoline-3,7'-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridine]-8'-carboxamides in various ratios. The structure of the synthesized compounds was confirmed by IR spectroscopy, HRMS, 1H and 13C DEPTQ NMR studies and the results of 2D NMR experiments (1H-13C HSQC, 1H-13C HMBC). Molecular docking studies were performed to investigate suitable binding modes of some new compounds with respect to the transcriptional regulator protein PqsR of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The docking studies revealed that the compounds have affinity for the bacterial regulator protein PqsR of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with a binding energy in the range of -5.8 to -8.2 kcal/mol. In addition, one of the new compounds, 2'-amino-3'-cyano-5-methyl-2-oxo-6'-{[2-oxo-2-(p-tolylamino)ethyl]thio}-1'H-spiro-[indoline-3,4'-pyridine]-5'-carboxamide, showed in vitro moderate antibacterial effect against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and good antioxidant properties in a test with 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical. Finally, three of the new compounds were recognized as moderately active herbicide safeners with respect to herbicide 2,4-D in the laboratory experiments on sunflower seedlings.

RESUMO

A straightforward three-step procedure affording a wide range of novel 7-aryl substituted paullone derivatives was developed.

RESUMO

A novel, low-cost method for the preparation of not easily accessible free 3-aminoindoles has been developed. This approach is based on a well-established reaction between indoles and nitrostyrene in the presence of phosphorous acid, which results in the formation of 4'-phenyl-4'H-spiro[indole-3,5'-isoxazoles]. The latter could be transformed to corresponding aminated indoles by reaction with hydrazine hydrate in good or excellent yields upon microwave-assisted heating.

RESUMO

The reaction between dithiomalondianilide (N,N'-diphenyldithiomalondiamide) and alkyl 3-aryl-2-cyanoacrylates in the presence of morpholine in the air atmosphere leads to the formation of alkyl 6-amino-4-aryl-7-phenyl-3-(phenylimino)-4,7-dihydro-3H-[1,2]dithiolo[3,4-b]- pyridine-5-carboxylates in 37-72% yields. The same compounds were prepared in 23-65% yields by ternary condensation of aromatic aldehydes, ethyl(methyl) cyanoacetate and dithiomalondianilide. The reaction mechanism is discussed. The structure of ethyl 6-amino-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-7-phenyl-3-(phenylimino)-4,7-dihydro-3H-[1,2]dithiolo[3,4-b]pyridine-5-carboxylate was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Two of the prepared compounds showed a moderate growth-stimulating effect on sunflower seedlings. Three of the new compounds were recognized as strong herbicide safeners with respect to herbicide 2,4-D in the laboratory and field experiments on sunflower.

RESUMO

Base-assisted transformations of 2-(3-oxoindolin-2-yl)acetonitriles were investigated. Unexpectedly, attempted reactions of substrates possessing nonprotected nitrogen atoms were accompanied by unusual extrusions of 2-arylacetonitriles, followed by a 1,2-aryl shift to afford 3-hydroxyindolin-2-ones. On the other hand, the reactions for N-alkyl derivatives of oxoindolines took the expected route by only providing 1,2,3,3a,4,8b-hexahydropyrrolo[3,2-b]indoles.
