Acylated cyanoimido-complexes trans-[Mo(NCN){NCN(O)R}(DPPE)(2)]Cl and their reactons with electrophiles: Chemical, electrochemical and theoretical study

Treatment of a dichloromethane solution of trans-[Mo(NCN){NCNC(O)R}(dppe)(2)]Cl [R = Me (1a), Et (1b)] (dppe = Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2) with HBF4, [Et3O][BF4] or EtC(O)Cl gives trans-[Mo(NCN)Cl-(dppe)(2)]X [X = BF4 (2a) or Cl (2b)] and the corresponding acylcyanamides NCN(R')C(O)Et (R' = H, Et or C(O)Et). X-ray diffraction analysis of 2a (X = BF4) reveals a multiple-bond coordination of the cyanoimide ligand. Compounds 1 convert to the bis(cyanoimide) trans-[Mo(NCN)(2)(dppe)(2)] complex upon reaction with an excess of NaOMe (with formation of the respective ester). In an aprotic medium and at a Pt electrode, compounds 1 (R = Me, Et or Ph) undergo a cathodically induced isomerization. Full quantitative kinetic analysis of the voltammetric behaviour is presented and allows the determination of the first-order rate constants and the equilibrium constant of the trans to cis isomerization reaction. The mechanisms of electrophilic addition (protonation) to complexes 1 and the precursor trans[Mo(NCN)(2)(dppe)(2)], as well as the electronic structures, nature of the coordination bonds and electrochemical behaviour of these species are investigated in detail by theoretical methods which indicate that the most probable sites of the proton attack are the oxygen atom of the acyl group and the terminal nitrogen atom, respectively.

ELEVATED TRANS-MAMMARY TRANSMISSION OF Toxocara canis LARVAE IN BALB/c MICE

Toxocariasis is a widespread zoonosis and is considered an important worldwide public health problem. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of trans-mammary Toxocara canis infection in newborn BALB/c mice nursed by females experimentally infected with 1,200 eggs after delivery. After 50 days of age, the presence of larvae in different organs of the offspring was investigated. Trans-mammary infection was confirmed in 73.9% of the mice that had been nursed by infected females. These data show a high trans-mammary transmission of T. canis and confirm the significance of this transmission route in paratenic hosts.

Trans-Synaptic Signaling by Activity-Dependent Cleavage of Neuroligin-1

Throughout the brain, patterns of activity in postsynaptic neurons influence the properties of synaptic inputs. Such feedback regulation is central to neural network stability that underlies proper information processing and feature representation in the central nervous system. At the cellular level, tight coupling of presynaptic and postsynaptic function is fundamental to neural computation and synaptic plasticity. The cohort of protein complexes at the pre and postsynaptic membrane allows for tight synapse-specific segregation and integration of diverse molecular and electrical signals.(...)

Trans Lineam/De Linea: Heidegger versus Jünger sobre o nihilismo

A finalidade da investigação é inquirir o modo como o problema do nihilismo se acha concebido no confronto entre Heidegger e Jünger. Para esse efeito, toma-se como ponto de partida dois textos: por um lado, o ensaio de Jünger intitulado Über die Linie, publicado em 1949, na Festschrift dedicada a Heidegger por ocasião dos seus sessenta anos; por outro lado, a “resposta” dada por Heidegger, em 1955, no seu contributo para uma Festschrift análoga, dedicada a Jünger – “resposta” originalmente publicada com o título Über »die Linie« (e posteriormente republicada com o título Zur Seinsfrage).

Trans-cultural aspects of social anxiety disorder and related conditions: a Brazilian case series and a review of international clinical studies

Cross-cultural studies have much to teach clinicians and researchers alike about psychopathology in general and about social anxiety disorder (SAD) in particular. Unfortunately, little is known about the degree and the mechanisms through which cultural environment may influence clinical manifestations of SAD. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to identify culture-related clinical patterns in SAD and related disorders. METHODS: We described socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of a sample of 62 adult outpatients with SAD seen at a university clinic for anxiety and depressive disorders in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and compared them with those reported in clinical samples from North America, Europe, Asia and Oceania identified through a systematic review in Medline, PsychINFO, and LILACS. RESULTS: Our comparison of trans-cultural features of SAD lends partial support to Heimberg's (1997) contention that the majority of socio-demographic features and symptoms of this disorder are relatively independent of geographic and cultural differences. CONCLUSION: Patients with SAD were almost universally characterized by: 1) a predominance of males in clinical samples; 2) early onset of the disorder; 3) high educational attainment; and 4) great frequency of comorbidities.

Fechamento percutâneo de comunicação interatrial por punção trans-hepática

O fechamento percutâneo da comunicação interatrial (CIA) ostium secundum (OS) é procedimento bem estabelecido, sendo atualmente considerado o tratamento de escolha por seus bons resultados e sua baixa morbidade e mortalidade. O procedimento é realizado rotineiramente pela veia cava inferior (VCI). Ocasionalmente, entretanto, essa via de acesso não é possível por causa da obstrução ou da ausência congênita da VCI. Apresentaremos um caso de fechamento de CIA por punção trans-hepática decorrente de impossibilidade de uso da VCI.

Efeito da aplicação da vinhaça como fertilizante sobre os teores de ácido trans-aconítico de caldo de cana-de-açúcar (Saccharum spp)

Caldo de cana da variedade NA 56-79, em quatro estádios de maturidade (4, 6, 8 e 12 meses) fertilizada com vinhaça foi analisada para a determinação dos teores de potássio e ácido trans-aconítico. A fertilização com vinhaça provocou redução significativa nos teores de açúcares redutores totais e aumento nos teores de potássio e de ácido trans-aconítico. Uma correlação positiva significativa foi encontrada entre a produção de ácido trans-aconítico e o teor de potássio. O teor de ácido trans-aconítico foi reduzido com a maturidade das plantas.
