Earlier we reported the tendency of ferrocenylmethyl substituted amino acids to organize around Cu(ii) in a C(2) symmetry. In this paper we have utilized this property to form a chiral cavity using a l-tyrosine derivative. Structural characterization of [Cu(II)(S-fTyr)(2)(MeCN)(2)] (), where
OBJECTIVE
Intracavitary radioimmunotherapy (RIT) offers an effective adjuvant therapeutic approach in patients with malignant gliomas. Since differentiation between recurrence and reactive changes following RIT has a critical impact on patient management, the aim of this study was to analyse the
Purpose: Assessment of residual tumor after resection of cerebral gliomas can be difficult with MRI and may be improved by amino acid PET. The aim of this experimental study was to investigate uptake of (2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (18F-FET) and
OBJECTIVE
Glioblastoma inevitably recurs despite aggressive therapy. Therefore, it would be helpful to predict the location of tumor recurrence from postoperative imaging to customize further treatment. O-(2-18Ffluoroethyl)-l-tyrosine (FET) positron emission tomography (PET) might be a helpful
Purpose: PET using O-(2-[18F]Fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (18F-FET) is useful to detect residual tumor tissue after glioma resection. Recent animal experiments detected reactive changes of 18F-FET uptake at the rim of the resection cavity within the first two weeks
The inclusion complexes of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) with L-tyrosine (L-TYN) were investigated by using spectrophotometers. The absorption and fluorescence enhancement occurs with beta-CD and L-TYN forms 1:1 inclusion complex. The unusual blue shift of hydroxyl ion in the beta-CD medium confirms
OBJECTIVE
The prognosis of patients with recurrent gliomas depends on reliable and early diagnosis of tumour recurrence after initial therapy. In this context, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) often fail to differentiate between radiation- and tumour-induced contrast
Background: Progressive cognitive decline following multimodal neurooncological treatment is a common observation in patients suffering from malignant glioma. Alterations of the default-mode network (DMN) represent a possible source of
Despite considerable advances in preoperative and intraoperative imaging and neuronavigation, resection of thalamic gliomas remains challenging. Although both endoscopic biopsy and third ventriculostomy (ETV) for the treatment of secondary hydrocephalus are commonly performed, endoscopic resection
Inclusion complexation of buserelin acetate, and agonist of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone, with dimethyl-beta-cyclodextrin (DM-beta-CyD) in aqueous solution was studied spectroscopically and its mode of interaction was assessed. Ultraviolet absorption and circular dichroism (CD)
The catalytic properties of two classes of solid catalysts for the oxidation of hydrocarbons in the liquid phase are discussed: (i) microporous solids, encapsulating transition metal complexes in their cavities and (ii) titanosilicate molecular sieves. Copper acetate dimers encapsulated in molecular
An alpha-chymotrypsin-like enzyme was isolated from mast cells of the rat peritoneal cavity by extraction with 0.8 M potassium phosphate, 2 per cent protamine sulfate followed by affinity chromatography on hen ovoinhibitor-agarose and adsorption on barium sulfate. This procedure yielded over 9 mg of
Biocatalytic transformations in reversed micelles formed by anionic surfactant Aerosol OT in octane have been studied at high pressures by an example of alpha-chymotrypsin-catalyzed hydrolysis of N-carbobenzoxy-L-tyrosine p-nitrophenyl ester and N-succinyl-L-phenylalanine p-nitroanilide. For the
To study the factors influencing nasal absorption of a model pentapeptide, plasma levels of total radioactivity were determined following the administration of [3H]tyr-leucine enkephalin to rats intravenously, intranasally alone, and intranasally in the presence of puromycin. The major pathway for
Coenzyme A ligases play an important role in metabolism by catalyzing the activation of carboxylic acids. In this study we describe the synthesis of aminoacyl-coenzyme As (CoAs) catalyzed by a CoA ligase from Penicillium chrysogenum. The enzyme accepted medium-chain length fatty acids as the best
