    Formation of C−X Bonds Through Stable Low-Electron Count Cationic Pt(IV) Alkyl Complexes Stabilized by N-Heterocyclic Carbenes

    Get PDF
    Cationic five-coordinate Pt(IV) alkyl complexes stabilized by bulky N-heterocyclic carbenes have been isolated and fully characterized. Related species have been postulated as key intermediates in carbon–heteroatom coupling reactions and most particularly in Shilov-type chemistry. The alkyl groups exhibit a pronounced electrophilic character and can undergo nucleophilic addition of pyridine, bromide, or iodide to form new carbon–heteroatom bonds. Nevertheless, direct reductive coupling to form C–X bonds can be operative in the absence of an external nucleophile source.Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades CTQ2013-45011Junta de Andalucía FQM-212

    Influence of the number of daily pills and doses on adherence to antiretroviral treatment: a 7-year study

    Get PDF
    [EN] What is known and objective: Antiretroviral treatment (ART) is hampered by complicated regimens, high pill burden, drug–drug interactions, and frequent short- and long-term adverse effects, leading to decreased adherence. Over recent years, considerable effort has been directed at developing regimens that are less burdening. We undertook a 7-year retrospective study of the records of 264 HIV-infected subjects enrolled in a pharmaceutical care programme to document the progress made and to study the influence of the number of ART pills and doses on the level of treatment adherence. Methods: Antiretroviral dispensing records were analysed for the number of pills and doses administered and the ART adherence rate estimated. Results and discussion: In 2005, the patients took a mean of 6 2 pills daily (CI 95%: 5 9–6 6), and 92 9% of them were on a twice-a-day (BID) dosage regimen. By 2012, the mean number of pills was reduced to 4 1 (CI 95%: 3 8–4 4), and only 50 9% were on a BID regimen. No statistically significant relation was observed between number of daily pills and doses and ART adherence reached by the patients in any of the analyses performed. What is new and conclusions: There has been a continuous reduction in the number of pills and doses of antiretrovirals taken by individual patients over the last 7 years due largely to the introduction of improved treatments and regimens. More daily pills or doses was not associated with worse ART adherence in our pharmaceutical care programme

    MBW complexes impinge on anthocyanidin reductase gene regulation for proanthocyanidin biosynthesis in persimmon fruit

    Full text link
    [EN] MBW protein complexes containing MYB, bHLH and WD40 repeat factors are known transcriptional regulators of secondary metabolites production such as proanthocyanidins and anthocyanins, and developmental processes such as trichome formation in many plant species. DkMYB2 and DkMYB4 (MYB-type), DkMYC1 (bHLH-type) and DkWDR1 (WD40-type) factors have been proposed by different authors to take part of persimmon MBW complexes for proanthocyanidin accumulation in immature fruit, leading to its characteristic astringent flavour with important agronomical and ecological effects. We have confirmed the nuclear localization of these proteins and their mutual physical interaction by bimolecular fluorescence complementation analysis. In addition, transient expression of DkMYB2, DkMYB4 and DkMYC1 cooperatively increase the expression of a persimmon anthocyanidin reductase gene (ANR), involved in the biosynthesis of cis-flavan-3-ols, the structural units of proanthocyanidin compounds. Collectively, these data support the presence of MBW complexes in persimmon fruit and suggest their coordinated participation in ANR regulation for proanthocyanidin production.This work was funded by the Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA)-FEDER (grant no.

    Cd38 deficiency ameliorates chronic graft versus Host disease murine lupus via a b-cell dependent mechanism

    Trabajo presentado en el II Congreso investigación PTS, celebrado en Granada (España) del 09 al 11 de febrero de 2022.Absence of mouse cell surface receptor CD38 in Cd38-/- mice suggests that this receptor acts as positive regulator of inflammatory and autoimmune responses. Here we report that in the setting of a chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) lupus model induced by the transfer of B6.C-H2bm12/KhEg (bm12) spleen cells into co-isogenic Cd38-/- B6 mice causes milder lupus-like autoimmunity with lower levels of anti-ssDNA autoantibodies than the transfer of bm12 spleen cells into WT B6 mice. I In addition, significantly lower percentages of Tfh cells, as well as GC B cells, plasma cells and T-bet+CD11chi B cells are observed in Cd38-/- mice than in WT mice, while the expansion of Treg cells, and Tfr cells is normal, suggesting that the ability of Cd38-/- B cells to respond to allogeneic help from bm12 CD4+ T cells is greatly diminished. The frequencies of T-bet+CD11chi B cells, which are considered the precursors of the autoantibody secreting cells, correlate with anti-ssDNA autoantibody serum levels, with IL-27, and sCD40L. Proteomics profiling of spleens from WT cGVHD mice reflects a STAT1-driven type I IFN-signature, which is absent in Cd38-/- cGVHD mice. Kidney, spleen and liver inflammation was mild and resolved faster in Cd38-/- cGVHD mice than in WT cGVHD mice. We conclude that in B cells CD38 functions as a modulator receptor that controls autoimmune responses
