The P7C3 class of neuroprotective aminopropyl carbazoles has been shown to block neuronal cell death in models of neurodegeneration. We now show that P7C3 molecules additionally preserve axonal integrity after injury, before neuronal cell death occurs, in a rodent model of blast-mediated traumatic
In order to understand the photophysics and non-linear optical properties of carbazole containing π-conjugated oligomers of the type ET-Cbz-TE (E = ethynylene, T = 2,5-thienylene, Cbz = 3,6-carbazole), a detailed investigation was carried out on a series of oligomers that feature Au(i) or Pt(ii)
Strain OC11 was isolated from seawater sampled at the coast of Chiba, Japan, in artificial seawater medium with carbazole (CAR) as the sole carbon source. Its 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequence suggested that strain OC11 belongs to the genus Janibacter. The CAR-degradation genes (car genes) of strain
An approach was demonstrated toward the design and synthesis of a series of novel C(70) and C(60) derivatives for large two-photon absorption (TPA). The molecular structures of fullerene derivatives were confirmed by MALDI-MS, (1)H NMR, and FT-IR. With femtosecond open-aperture Z-scans and
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a transcription factor activated by a large number of natural and synthetic agents, modulates the activity of immune cells in the gut and represents an important link between the environment and immune-mediated pathologies. In this study, we investigated the role of
A dibenzofuran (DF)-degrader Terrabacter sp. strain DBF63 harbors the dbfA and dbfBC genes for DF degradation and the fln-dbfA, pht, and pca gene clusters for the utilization of fluorene (FN) as a sole carbon source. From this strain, dfdA1, the gene encoding the second DF dioxygenase was detected
Binary information in the form of a 256 x 256 pixel array has been stored holographically within a polymeric photorefractive composite of 130-mum thickness. Devices used consisted of 55-wt. % organic chromophore 1-(2?-ethylhexyloxy)-2, 5-dimethyl-4-(4?nitrophenylazo) benzene and up to 11.2-wt. % 2,
Evidence from the literature indicates that in vitamin E-deficient animals prostaglandin (PG) synthesis in platelets is enhanced while it is decreased in the muscle and testis. In the present study the effects of aspirin, a known inhibitor of PG biosynthesis, on vitamin E deficiency signs in the rat
Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is defined as congenital thyroid hormone deficiency. The aim of this study was to examine the DNA and neuron damage in rat pups with CH and to evaluate the beneficial effects of 3.6-Dibromo-α-[(phenylamino) methyl]-9H-carbazole-9-ethanol (P7C3). Rat pups were assigned
Clarified slurry oil (CSO), the heavy residual fraction from the fluidized catalytic cracker, was applied to the shaven backs of groups of 10 male and 10 female Sprague-Dawley rats 5 days/week for 13 weeks at doses of 8, 30, 125, or 500 mg/kg/day, and to another group for 2 weeks at doses of 2000
Compelling evidence demonstrates the crucial role of the commensal microbiota in host physiology and the detrimental effects of its perturbations following antibiotic treatment. However, the effects of commensal microbiota on intestinal mucosa antimicrobial molecules have not been elucidated
Dithienylbenzothiadiazole (DTBT) is used as a building block in several molecules having application in organic light emitting devices (OLED) and organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices. Delayed fluorescence (DF) is the preferred design principle employed currently in OLED research. DTBT has excellent
Retinal dystrophies are predominantly caused by mutations affecting the visual phototransduction system and cilia, with few genes identified that function to maintain photoreceptor survival. We reasoned that growth factors involved with early embryonic retinal development would represent excellent
