1-Substituted 4-perylen-2(3)-y1-1,2,3-triazoles, easily accessible by 'click' reaction and combining in one molecule a polyaromatic unit and a nitrogen heterocycle, were found to strongly inhibit the reproduction of enveloped viruses. 5[4-(Perylen-3-y1)-1,2,3-triazol-1-y1]-uridine and 2-[1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1,2,3triazol-4-yl]perylene show EC50 of 0.031 and 0.023 mu M, respectively, against tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). Remarkably, the nucleoside unit appears to be not essential for antiviral activity. These results provide deeper understanding of structural basis of activity for this new class of antivirals.

Involvement of the transcription factor Bach1 in various scenarios of cellular regulation is reviewed herein. To date, the most extensively studied role of Bach1 is that of a repressor of the antioxidant genetic program initiated by the Nrf2 factor. This program counteracts oxidative stress, which triggers both ferroptosis and the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. Bach1 functions unrelated ...

Quasi-movements (QMs), which are movement attempts minimized to the point of movement extinction, evoke EEG patterns similar to those of real movement. QMs can model attempted movement in healthy subjects and are therefore of interest as an alternative to motor imagery (MI) in rehabilitation brain–computer interfaces (BCIs), in which the attempted movement of the paralyzed ...

Understanding the earliest pathological changes in Alzheimer disease (AD) is critical for improving early intervention strategies. However, the relationship between amyloid plaque characteristics and early behavioral and molecular alterations remains unclear. We used 6-month-old female APPswe/PS1dE9 mice, a model of early amyloid-dominant pathology, to assess cognition and emotionality across a battery of behavioral tests. Amyloid ...

We derive the local pressure tensor generated by the original Rosenfeld fundamental measure theory (FMT) for hard-sphere fluids from an arbitrary infinitesimal deformation. The variation of a finite-distance FMT kernel is written via the line integrals of the local deformation gradient along the straight segment connecting its end points. The resulting symmetric pressure tensor consists ...

A series of new coumarin-azine fluorophores based on 1,2,4-triazinyl and pyridinyl substituted derivatives of 7-aminocoumarin was synthesized via a nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen (SNH) reaction followed by an inverse electron-demand Diels–Alder transformation. The primary photophysical properties of 3-triazinyl coumarins and their pyridine analogs was investigated in toluene and acetonitrile solutions. Thus, the emission of the fluorophores in ...

Antiviral activity is commonly summarized using endpoint measures such as EC50 or EC90, yet these quantities emerge from a dynamic biological system and depend on viral replication kinetics, host-cell properties, experimental design, and the assay used to quantify infection. Infectious-virus titers, viral RNA, infected-cell fractions, viability measurements, and immune readouts capture different components of the ...

Conformational space of polyphenylenevinylene oligomers is systematically investigated computationally at energies relevant for room temperature dynamics in a solvent and in a solid state. Our calculations show that optimal oligomer structures are essentially planar. However, lack of a deep minimum at the planar geometry allows for large molecular deformations even at very low temperatures. At ...

Electron–phonon interaction strongly affects and often limits charge transport in organic semiconductors (OSs). However, approaches to its experimental probing are still in their infancy. In this study, we probe the local electron–phonon interaction (quantified by the charge-transfer reorganization energy) in small-molecule OSs by means of Raman spectroscopy. Applying density functional theory calculations to four series ...
