Oxidation of hexafluoropropylene with molecular oxygen

100%
EN
The results of the oxidation of hexafluoropropylene (HFP) to hexafluoropropylene oxide (HFPO) have been presented. The oxidation was carried out in an autoclave within the range of temperatures of 120 - 170°C and in the presence of an organic solvent (carbon tetrachloride). Molecular oxygen was used here as an oxidizing agent. The influence of: the molar ratio of HFP/O from 13.4 to 4.09:1, the process temperature, the addition of inert gas (nitrogen) from 4 to 18 atm and the periodical dosing of oxygen were investigated. The functions describing the process were: the conversion of HFP and the yield of HFPO in relation to HFP consumed. The presented process is very interesting owing to a wide application of HFPO.

Congo red interaction with α-proteins

100%
EN
The ability of Congo red to form complexes with α-proteins, human growth hormone and human interferon-α2b, was found by absorption difference spectroscopy. A human growth hormone-Congo red complex was isolated by gel-permeation chromatography, and its visible absorption spectrum was registered in comparison to free dye. The ability of Congo red to induce dimerization of human growth hormone was demonstrated using chemical cross-linking agents 1,3,5-triacryloyl-hexahydro-s-triazine and ethylene glycol bis(succinimidylsuccinate).

The G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), one of the largest protein families, are essential components of the most commonly used signal-transduction systems in cells. These receptors, often using common pathways, may cooperate in the regulation of signal transmission to the cell nucleus. Recent scientific interests increasingly focus on the cooperation between these receptors, particularly in a context of their oligomerization, e.g. the formation of dimers that are able to change characteristic signaling of each receptor. Numerous studies on kinin and dopamine receptors which belong to this family of receptors have shown new facts demonstrating their direct interactions with other GPCRs. In this review, current knowledge on signaling pathways and oligomerization of these receptors has been summarized. Owing to the fact that kinin and dopamine receptors are widely expressed in cell membranes where they act as mediators of numerous common physiological processes, the information presented here sheds new light on a putative crosstalk of these receptors and provides more comprehensive understanding of possible direct interactions that may change their functions. The determination of such interactions may be useful for the development of new targeted therapeutic strategies against many disorders in which kinin and dopamine receptors are involved.
