The reaction represents a straightforward method to access difluoromethylene substituted 1,2,3-triazoles. Mechanistically, it has been proposed that the reaction follows a pathway involving the formation of Cu(1) triazolide intermediate, Cu(I) carbene formation, migratory insertion, and β-fluoride elimination. The trans- formation is featured by mild conditions, wide substrate scope and high efficiency.展开更多

However, extracellular matrix(ECM), as a physical barrier, limits virus spread within the tumor. To overcome the obstacle, we constructed a recombinant Newcastle disease virus(NDV) expressing matrix metalloproteinase(MMP8)(NDV-MMP8) using with reverse genetic technology. In vitro, NDV-MMP8 was identified and verified by WB and ELISA. Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. In vivo, we established two liver cancer xenograft models. NDV-MMP8 was injected into the tumor to observe the tumor volume and survival of mice. The changes in extracellular matrix were observed by Masson’s trichrome staining. Virus expression in tumor tissues was detected by immunofluorescence assay. The virus titer in tumor tissues was detected by TCID50. Histopathological changes were detected by hematoxylin and eosin(HE) and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase d UTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) staining. Intratumoral administration of NDV-MMP8 can effectively degrade ECM, promote the spread of the virus within the tumor, and reduce tumor growth rate. Therefore, the method of increasing intratumoral virus accumulation by degradation of the ECM to enhance the oncolytic effect has great potential for clinical application.展开更多

This new synthetic method is based on the Rh(l)-carbene migra- tory insertion followed by fl-fluoride elimination. In one particular case the protonation occurs instead offl-fluoride elimination, affording 2,2-diaryl trifluoroethane product.展开更多
