The synthesis and pharmacological activity of a new series of 5a,7,8,8a-tetrahydro-4H,6H-pyrrolo[3,4-b][1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-d][1,4]oxazine derivatives as potent sigma-1 receptor (σ1R) ligands are reported. A lead optimization program aimed at improving the aqueous solubility of parent racemic nonpolar derivatives led to the identification of…[Read more]

Given a wide range of salinity tolerance of the marine nematodes, this study and further genetic analysis of key gene(s) of osmoregulation in L. marina will likely provide important insights into biological evolution and environmental adaptation mechanisms in nematodes and other invertebrate animals in general.Beige adipocytes are newly identified…[Read more]
