A Convenient Way to Quinoxaline Derivatives through the Reaction of 2-(3-Oxoindolin-2-yl)-2-phenylacetonitriles with Benzene-1,2-diamines
(MDPI, 2022-09-22)Microwave-assisted reaction between 2-(3-oxoindolin-2-yl)-2-phenylacetonitriles andbenzene-1,2-diamines leads to the high-yielding formation of the corresponding quinoxalines as sole, easily isolaable products. The featured ... -
Development and validation of a military fear avoidance questionnaire
(Frontiers Media, 2022-10-03)Chronic pain due to musculoskeletal injury is one of the leading causes of disability and reduced combat readiness in the U.S. Army. Unidimensional pain management systems are not effective in addressing the complex ... -
Novel compound C150 inhibits pancreatic cancer through induction of ER stress and proteosome assembly
(Frontiers Media, 2022-10-05)Pancreatic cancer is a devastating disease with a dismal prognosis and poor treatment outcomes. Searching for new agents for pancreatic cancer treatment is of great significance. We previously identified a novel activity ... -
Impact of Distance and Proficiency on Shooting Kinematics in Professional Male Basketball Players
(MDPI, 2022-09-30)Shooting efficiency is one of the key performance parameters related to securing the desired game outcome at various levels of basketball competition, and it is largely influenced by the biomechanical adjustments incorporated ... -
Cellular Target Deconvolution of Small Molecules Using a Selection-Based Genetic Screening Platform
(American Chemical Society, 2022-09-22)Small-molecule drug target identification is an essential and often rate-limiting step in phenotypic drug discovery and remains a major challenge. Here, we report a novel platform for target identification of activators ... -
Immune Modulation by Antigenic Peptides and Antigenic Peptide Conjugates for Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis
(Elsevier, 2022-06-01)The immune system defends our body by fighting infection from pathogens utilizing both the innate and adaptive immune responses. The innate immune response is generated rapidly as the first line of defense. It is followed ... -
Advances, obstacles, and opportunities for machine learning in proteomics
(Elsevier, 2022-10-19)The fields of proteomics and machine learning are both large disciplines, each producing well over 5,000 publications per year. However, studies combining both fields are still relatively rare, with only about 2% of recent ... -
Does school SES matter less for high-performing students than for their lower-performing peers? A quantile regression analysis of PISA 2018 Australia
(Springer Open, 2022-11-11)Background While the relationship between school socioeconomic composition and student academic outcomes is well established, knowledge about differential effects is not extensive. In particular, little is known whether ... -
Remote, Whole-Body Interval Training Improves Muscular Endurance and Cardiac Autonomic Control in Young Adults
(MDPI, 2022-10-26)High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is an exercise modality acknowledged to maintain physical fitness with more engagement in an active lifestyle compared with other traditional exercise models. Nevertheless, its effects ... -
Analytical Approaches for Deriving Friction Coefficients for Selected α‑Helical Peptides Based Entirely on Molecular Dynamics Simulations
(American Chemical Society, 2022-10-27)In this paper we derive analytically from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations the friction coefficients related to conformational transitions within several model peptides with α-helical structures. We study a series of ... -
Genome sequence and silkomics of the spindle ermine moth, Yponomeuta cagnagella, representing the early diverging lineage of the ditrysian Lepidoptera
(Nature Research, 2022-11-23)Many lepidopteran species produce silk, cocoons, feeding tubes, or nests for protection from predators and parasites for caterpillars and pupae. Yet, the number of lepidopteran species whose silk composition has been studied ... -
M. tuberculosis Transcription Machinery: A Review on the Mycobacterial RNA Polymerase and Drug Discovery Efforts
(MDPI, 2022-11-03)Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is the main source of tuberculosis (TB), one of the oldest known diseases in the human population. Despite the drug discovery efforts of past decades, TB is still one of the leading causes ... -
DNAJA1- and conformational mutant p53-dependent inhibition of cancer cell migration by a novel compound identified through a virtual screen
(Springer Nature, 2022-10-31)Cancers are frequently addicted to oncogenic missense mutant p53 (mutp53). DNAJA1, a member of heat shock protein 40 (HSP40), also known as J-domain proteins (JDPs), plays a crucial role in the stabilization and oncogenic ... -
Fourier Analysis of Magnetic Fields in the Ionosphere of Mars
(2023-02-11)The two main sources of magnetic field for the Martian ionosphere are the solar wind magnetic fields (i.e., the interplanetary magnetic field), and, particularly in the southern hemisphere, remnant crustal magnetization. ... -
