RESUMEN
Background: Factor V (FV) deficiency is a rare disease, with a low incidence rate in Asia. Therefore, the F5 mutation in the Taiwanese population is poorly understood. Methods: A Chinese family with FV deficiency was included, and the patient and his family members underwent mutation analysis. Then, patients from Keelung City (Taiwan) were screened for F5 polymorphism; the Chang Gung Human Database was used to determine single-nucleotide variants in the non-FV-deficient patient population. Results: Eight mutation sites on the F5 gene locus, including exon 16 homozygote Met1736Val and seven heterozygous mutations, including Asp68His, were found. Moreover, Met1736Val was found to be the dominant mutation in people living in the Taiwan community, and this result was compared with the records of the Chang Gung Human Database. The above-mentioned polymorphisms may result in a variable incidence of FV deficiency in Keelung City, thereby facilitating carrier diagnosis and prenatal diagnosis in most FV-deficient families. Conclusion: The homozygote Met1736Val and the co-inheritance of the Asp68His F5 gene are unique and worthy of screening in FV-deficient patients.
RESUMEN
A judicious strategy was utilized to envision the substantial regio-positional effects of substituents on the photophysical properties of the 2H-chromen-2-one-3-benzothiazole scaffold-based push-pull framework, named 6-X-CUMs. Among them, 6-NEt2-CUM reveals prominent excited-state intramolecular charge transfer with a large change of dipole moment (Δµ â¼ 18.23 D), hence displaying remarkable emission solvatochromism from the green (536 nm in cyclohexane) to far-red region (714 nm in dimethyl sulfoxide) and a high-temperature sensitivity (-0.23 nm °C-1). These, together with unique basicity and acido-/vaporchromism upon acidification elucidated by NMR and photospectroscopic studies, show stark contrast to the conventional 7-NEt2-CUM. The new series of these tailored 6-X-CUMs represents a new dimension in tailoring the photophysical properties for the development of a promising class of multistimuli-responsive materials.
