In this strategy, a large panel of axially chiral isoxazole-derived amino alcohols was synthesized with generally high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. The method features mild reaction conditions, broad functional group compatibility and good scalability. X-ray crystallography and thermal racemization experiments revealed the important role of six-membered intramolecular O?H···O hydrogen bonding in stabilizing the configurations, which exhibit markedly different racemization barriers in protic and aprotic solvents. Moreover, preliminary mechanistic studies, including nonlinear effects and control experiments were conducted to elucidate the reaction mechanism and activation mode. This approach not only provides an efficient method for constructing pentatomic isoxazole scaffolds, but also expands the family of axially chiral amino alcohols.展开更多

A radioligand binding assay and immunohistochemistry were used to estimate the number of AMPA receptors and endogenous neural stem cells respectively. Results showed that the number of AMPA receptors and endogenous neural stem cells in the brain stem and sensorimotor cortex were significantly increased, while motor function was significantly decreased at postnatal days 90 and 120. After administration of FGF-2 into mice, numbers of endogenous neural stem cells increased, while expression of AMPA receptors decreased, whilst motor functions were recovered. At postnatal day 120, the number of AMPA receptors was negatively correlated with the number of endogenous neural stem cells in model mice and FGF-2-treated mice. Our experimental findings indicate that FGF-2 can inhibit AMPA receptors and increase the number of endogenous neural stem cells, thus repairing neural injury in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis mice.展开更多

Transmembrane 4 L six family member 5 (TM4SF5) is known to promoteHCC, but it remains unclear how cancerous hepatocytes avoid immune surveillance and whether avoidance can be blocked. Weinvestigated how TM4SF5-mediated hepatic tumorigenesis avoids surveillance by natural killer (NK) cells, which are prevalent in theliver, and whether the avoidance can be blocked by anti-TM4SF5 agents. We used comprehensive structure activity relationshipanalysis to identify TM4SF5-specific isoxazole (TSI)-based small molecules that inhibit TM4SF5-mediated effects. TM4SF5 expressedby hepatocytes reduced NK cell cytotoxicity by downregulating stimulatory ligands/receptors, including signaling lymphocyticactivation molecule family member 7 (SLAMF7). TM4SF5 bound SLAMF7 depending on N-glycosylation and caused intracellulartrafficking of SLAMF7 from the plasma membrane to lysosomes for degradation. TSI treatments in cell lines and animal models ofHCC blocked this binding, intracellular trafficking, and downregulation, resulting in higher levels of stimulatory NK cell ligands. Inmouse xenograft models, TSI treatment abrogated HCC development by increasing the abundance and dispersion of Slamf7-positive cells in liver tissues, recapitulating the phenotype of Tm4sf5-knockout mice and indicating TSI-mediated restoration of NKcell surveillance. These findings suggest that TSIs can inhibit TM4SF5-mediated liver carcinogenesis by increasing NK cellsurveillance.展开更多

Molecular docking and CoMFA were combined in a multistep framework with the ultimate goal of identifying important factor contributing to the activity of PPO inhibitors.

文摘Two novel substituted phenyl oxazole isoxazole carboxamides have been synthesized by microwave assistant technology.The target compounds were characterized by IR,1H NMR,13C NMR and HRMS,and their single-crystal structures were further determined by X-ray diffraction.3-Phenyl-4-(2΄-methyl-2΄-isopropyl-1΄,3΄-oxazole)-5-methyl isoxazole carboxamide(6a)crystallizes in monoclinic system,space group P21/c with a=6.2137(12),b=19.923(4),c=13.748(3)Å,β=92.30(3)°,V=1700.6(6)Å3,Dc=1.228 Mg/m3,Z=4,F(000)=672,μ(MoKα)=0.084 mm-1,R=0.0526 and wR=0.1259.3-(2΄-Fluoro-6΄-chloro-phenyl)-4-(2΄-methyl-2΄-ethyl-1΄,3΄-oxazole)-5-methyl isoxazole carboxamide(6b)crystallizes in triclinic system,space group P with a=7.8750(16),b=10.596(2),c=11.725(12)Å,β=102.05(3)°,V=859.5(3)Å3,Dc=1.363 Mg/m3,Z=2,F(000)=368,μ(MoKα)=0.250 mm-1,R=0.0738 and wR=0.1941.Both of the molecules prefer to form crystal packing through C–H…O hydrogen bonds.Compounds 6a and 6b show safener activity on maize against the injury of chlorsulfuron.

文摘The γ-substituted β-diketonate 2,4-dioxo-3-pentyl 4-[4-（n-octyloxy）cinnamoyl]oxybenzoate 1 and its pyrazole and isoxazole derivatives （2 and 3 respectively） have been synthesized and characterized by the spectroscopic methods and elemental analysis. The mesogenic properties of these compounds have been studied by polarizing optical microscopy （POM） and differential scanning calorimetry （DSC）. A monotropic nematic mesophase was observed for the β-diketonate 1, in contrast, the pyrazole 2 displays an enantiotropic smectic A and isoxazole 3 exhibits an enantiotropic nematic mesophase. The relationship between the structure and liquid crystalline properties has also been discussed.

文摘4-Arylmethylidene-4,5-dihydro-3-phenylisoxazol-5-ones were synthesized by the convenient three-component reaction of ethyl benzoylacetate,hydroxylamine and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of pyridine.The target compounds were also obtained by the reaction between 3-phenylisoxazol-5-one and aromatic aldehydes at 105℃under solvent free condition.Yields of products depended considerably on the aldehyde used.
