    Notes: Abstract Artemisinin, a sesquiterpene lactone endoperoxide isolated fromArtemisia annua L., and a number of its semisynthetic derivatives have shown to possess antimalarial properties. They are all eflective againstPlasmodium parasites that are resistant to the newest and commonly used antimalarial drugs. This article gives a survey of the literature dealing with artemisinin-relaled antimalarial issues that have appeared from the end of 1989 up to the beginning of 1994. A broad range of medical and pharmaceutical disciplines is covered, including phytochemical aspects like the selection of high-producing plants, analytical procedures, and plant biotechnology. Furthermore, the organic synthesis of artemisinin derivatives is discussed, as well as their mechanism of action and antimalarial activity, metabolism and pharmacokinetics, clinical studies, sideeffects and toxicology, and biological activities other than antimalarial activity.

    Notes: Abstract Herbal medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion, and massage are the three major constituent parts of traditional Chinese medicine. Although acupuncture is well known in many Western countries, Chinese herbal medicine, the most important part of traditional Chinese medicine, is less well known in the West. This article gives a brief introduction to the written history, theory, and teaching of Chinese herbal medicine in China. It also describes modern scientific research into and the quality control of Chinese herbal medicines in China. Some examples of how new drugs derived from Chinese herbs have been developed on the basis of traditional therapeutic experience are presented. Finally, the situation of Chinese herbal medicine in the West is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Artemisia annua L. contains artemisinin, an endoperoxide sesquiterpene lactone, mainly in its leaves and inflorescences. This compound and a series of derivatives have attracted attention because of their potential value as antimalarial drugs. In this review a survey of the currently available literature data is given. It includes phytochemical aspects, such as constituents ofA. annua, the artemisinin content during the development of the plant and its biosynthesis, isolation, analysis and stability. Total chemical synthesis of artemisinin is referred to, as well as structure—activity relationships of derivatives and simplified analogues. Pharmacological studies are summarized, including the mechanism of action, interaction of the antimalarial activity with other drugs, possible occurrence of resistance to artemisinin, clinical results, toxicological aspects, metabolism and pharmacokinetics. Finally, plant cell biotechnologyy is mentioned as a possible means to obtain plants and cell cultures with higher artemisinin contents, allowing an industrial production of pharmaceuticals containing this novel drug.

    Dielectric properties of hydrated collagen (1979)
    New York : Wiley-Blackwell
    Biopolymers 18 (1979), S. 35-45 
    Details
    ISSN: 0006-3525
    Keywords: Chemistry ; Polymer and Materials Science
    Source: Wiley InterScience Backfile Collection 1832-2000
    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Dielectric measurements have been carried out on partially hydrated collagen in the frequency ranges 100 kHz-5 MHz, 100 MHz-1 GHz, and 8-23 GHz. In the low-frequency range, a dispersion was observed around 100 kHz which results from inhomogeneous conductivity of the samples. A dielectric relaxation was observed aroud 0.3 GHz using time-domain-spectroscopy techniques. This relaxation can be considered to originate from mobile side chains. Microwave measurements indicate that the water relaxation may extend into the 10-GHz region. An apparent discrepancy between the main water relaxation time and the average rotational correlation time of water as measured by nmr line widths was resolved by the assumption that a fraction of the water molecules is bound to the collagen with residence times on the order of 10-6 sec, whereas the remainder of the water is only weakly bound and exhibits rotational rates on the order of 10-10 sec.

    Notes: A molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was performed on the α-helix H8-HC5, the C-terminal part of myoglobin (residue 132-153), under periodic boundary conditions in two different solutions, water and water with 30% (v/v) 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE), at 300 K to investigate the stability of the helix. In both simulations, the initial configuration was a canonical right-handed α-helix. In the course of the MD trajectory in water (200 ps), the helix clearly destabilized and began to unfold after 100 ps. In the TFE solution, two stable parts of helical regions were observed after 70 ps of a 200-ps MD simulation, supporting the notion that TFE acts as a structure-forming solvent. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A probe molecule, which shows an unusually large change in fluorescent properties in response to changes in its environment, was introduced into a monodisperse polystyrene latex. Upon addition of low-molecular-weight compounds, the ensuing swelling process of the latex could be followed via the changes in the fluorescence spectrum of the probe molecule. Polymerization reactions of monomers, introduced into the particles, could also be monitored by means of this approach. Using glycidylmethacrylate as the monomer led to the formation of particles in which two distinctly different surroundings could be detected after such a polymerization. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    The molecular details of collagen hydration (1979)
    New York : Wiley-Blackwell

    ISSN: 0006-3525

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Nuclear magnetic resonance and dielectric data on hydrated collagen are interpreted in terms of Ramachandran's hydration model. It is found that all data are compatible with this model, indicating two specific binding sites per three amino acids in the threefold collagen helix. Sorption data have been interpreted according to the multilayer theory of Guggenheim and used to derive the fraction of bound water in the primary sites. From magnetic resonance anisotropies structural details of the position of the water molecules can be derived under the assumption that both sites are equally occupied. The residence time of a water molecule in one of these sites in moderately hydrated collagen (45 g H2O/100 g collagen) is 1.2 × 10-6 sec. The remainder of the water is weakly bound and consists of rapidly exchanging species with rotational correlation time shorter than 10-10 sec. The sites are 50% occupied at a water content of 10 g/100 g collagen and may contribute significantly to the stability of the collagen threefold helix.

    Notes: Molecular proximity of cis/trans mixtures of 2,5-dimethoxy-1,4-bis[2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)vinyl]benzene (MPV, 1) and polystyrene (PS) in mixtures of different MPV/PS weight ratios up to 60/40 is shown by 1H combined rotation and multiple pulse spectroscopy (CRAMPS) using 2D exchange experiments. The MPV/PS mixtures up to a weight ratio 60/40 are homogeneous, whereas the mixture with a weight ratio MPV/PS = 80/20 is heterogeneous. The comparison of the cross polarization/magic angle spinning (CP/MAS) 13C NMR spectra of pure MPV and of MPV mixed with PS shows significant linebroadening in case of intimate mixing, while the heterogeneous mixture shows some extra finestructure. The miscibility results were confirmed by proton spin-locking relaxation time measurements (T1ρH) on the mixtures. On intimate mixing, T1ρH is averaged out and varies linearly as a function of the composition of the mixture. CRAMPS-spectra and T1ρH measurements show that iodine-doped MPV/PS mixtures (weight ratios 40/60 and 60/40) are heterogeneous. Furthermore, doping causes a slight proton chemical shift change and reduces the T1ρH-values of those oligomer-polymer systems.

    Notes: Using rats as a model, porous discs of RPG carbon and polypropylene and polyethylene were localized subperiosteally and supraperiosteally in the skull. Bone and blood vessels grew into the discs, which had adequate pore size, when placed in direct contact with bone. No bone was generated from the periosteum. Both plastic materials were estimated to be better than carbon for use in osseous reconstructive work. More long term material-tissue stability and reaction studies should be performed.
