Cell cycle, apoptosis, cellular uptake and whole-transcriptome microarray gene expression analysis of HeLa cells treated with a ruthenium(II)-arene complex with an isoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ligand
(Elsevier, 2016)
Ruthenium(II)-arene complexes are promising drug candidates for the therapy of solid tumors. In previous work, seven new compounds of the general formula [Ru(eta(6)-p-cymene)(L1-7)Cl] were synthesized and characterized, ...
C-H/O Interactions of Aromatic CH Donors within Proteins: A Crystallographic Study
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2016)
C-H/O interactions of aromatic C-H donors within proteins have been studied by analyzing the data in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). The C-H/O interactions were studied between aromatic donors; phenylalanine, tyrosine, and ...
Anion-pi interactions in active centers of superoxide dismutases
(Elsevier, 2018)
We investigated 1060 possible anion-pi interactions in a data set of 41 superoxide dismutase active centers. Our observations indicate that majority of the aromatic residues are capable to form anion-pi interactions, mainly ...
Structural differences in diarylheptanoids analogues from Alnus viridis and Alnus glutinosa influence their activity and selectivity towards cancer cells
(Elsevier, 2016)
Diarylheptanoids represent a group of plant secondary metabolites that possess multiple biological properties and are increasingly recognized for their therapeutic potential. A comparative study was performed on structurally ...
Bacterial diversity in typical abandoned multi-contaminated nonferrous metal(loid) tailings during natural attenuation
(Elsevier, 2019)
Abandoned nonferrous metal(loid) tailings sites are anthropogenic, and represent unique and extreme ecological niches for microbial communities. Tailings contain elevated and toxic content of metal(loid)s that had negative ...
Design and photocatalytic ability of ordered mesoporous TiO2 thin films
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014)
Homogeneous and crack-free TiO2 films with templated mesoporosity were prepared by the dip coating technique using an evaporation-induced, self-assembly method. The synthesized mesoporous TiO2 films were characterized using ...
An ab initio study of SbH2 and BiH2: The Renner effect, spin-orbit coupling, local mode vibrations and rovibronic energy level clustering in SbH2
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2016)
We present the results of ab initio calculations for the lower electronic states of the Group 15 (pnictogen) dihydrides, SbH2 and BiH2. For each of these molecules the two lowest electronic states become degenerate at ...
Resolving the origin of the multimode Jahn-Teller effect in metallophthalocyanines
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2016)
A detailed Density Functional Theory (DFT) analysis was performed in order to study the multimode Jahn-Teller (JT) problem in the electronic ground state of manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc). A comparison with the magnesium ...
Structural aspects of 4-aminoquinolines as reversible inhibitors of human acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2019)
Eight derivatives of 4-aminoquinolines differing in the substituents attached to the C(4)-amino group and C(7)were synthesised and tested as inhibitors of human acetylcholinesterase (AChE)and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). ...
Formation of needle-like and honeycomb-like magnesium oxide/hydroxide structures by electrodeposition from magnesium nitrate melts
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018)
The processes of electrochemical deposition of magnesium oxide/hydroxide on glassy carbon (GC) electrode from magnesium nitrate hexahydrate melt have been investigated. A novel procedure predicting a possibility of direct ...
