    Abstract Oligonucleotides have emerged as valuable new therapeutics. Presently, oligonucleotide manufacturing consists in a series of stepwise additions until the full-length product is obtained. Deprotection of the phosphorus backbone before cleavage and deprotection (C&D) by ammonolysis is necessary to control the 3-(2-cyanoethyl) thymidine (CNET) impurity. In this study, we demonstrate that the use of piperazine as a scavenger of acrylonitrile allows phosphorus deprotection and C&D to be combined in a single step. This reduces solvent consumption, processing time, and CNET levels. Additionally, we showed that substitution of piperazine for triethylamine in the phosphorus deprotection step of supported-synthesis leads to reduced reaction times and lower levels of CNET impurities.

    Abstract Cr(VI)-containing compounds are well-established lung carcinogens. Chronic exposure of the normal human epithelial cells is able to induce malignant cell transformation, the first stage of metal carcinogenesis. These Cr(VI)-transformed cells exhibit increased level of antioxidants, reduced capacity of generating reactive oxygen species (ROS), and development of apoptosis resistance, promoting tumorigenesis of Cr(VI)-transformed cells, the second stage of metal carcinogenesis. The mechanism of Cr(VI) induced carcinogenesis is still under investigation. Recent studies indicate that ROS play a positive role in the first stage while a negative role in the second stage. Transformed cells adapt metabolism to support tumor initiation and progression. Altered metabolic activities directly participate in the process of cell transformation or support a large requirement for nucleotides, amino acids, and lipids for tumor growth. In malignantly Cr(VI)-transformed cells, mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation is defective, and pentose phosphate pathway, glycolysis, and glutaminolysis are upregulated. These metabolic reprogramming supports rapid cell proliferation and contributes to tumorigenesis of Cr(VI)-transformed cells. This article summarizes the current progress in the studies of metabolic reprogramming and Cr(VI) carcinogenesis with emphasis on the metabolic enzymes and oxidative stress related major oncogenic pathways.

    Abstract Cancer is one of the major causes of death in humans. Of all cancers, 19% are attributed to exposure to environmental chemical carcinogens. Dietary polyphenols from teas, vegetables, fruits, and many others exhibit multiple activities against cancers. Exposure to environmental carcinogens such as ultraviolet B (UVB), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and heavy metals has been demonstrated to cause cancer in humans. In this article, we specifically select UVB, PAHs, and metals as representative of three types of environmental carcinogens: physical, organic, and inorganic, respectively. We provide a comprehensive review on the role of various dietary polyphenols against carcinogenesis induced by those three types of carcinogens. We summarize the current knowledge of and prospects for prevention of those three groups of carcinogens induced by dietary polyphenols in vitro and in vivo.

    Abstract Oligonucleotide drugs show promise to treat diseases afflicting millions of people. To address the need to manufacture large quantities of oligonucleotide therapeutics, the novel convergent liquid-phase synthesis has been developed for an 18-mer oligonucleotide drug candidate. Fragments containing tetra- and pentamers were synthesized and assembled into the 18-mer without column chromatography, which had a similar impurity profile to material made by standard solid-phase oligonucleotide synthesis. Two of the fragments have been synthesized at ∼3 kg/batch sizes and four additional tetra- and pentamer fragments were synthesized at >300-g scale, and a 34-mer was assembled from the fragments. Critical impurities are controlled in the fragment syntheses to provide oligonucleotides of purities suitable for clinical use after applying standard full-length product purification process. Impurity control in the assembly steps demonstrated the potential to eliminate chromatography of full-length oligonucleotides, which should enhance scalability and reduce the environmental impact of the process. The convergent assembly and telescoping of reactions made the long synthesis (>60 reactions) practical by reducing production time, material loss, and chances for impurity generation.

    Abstract Inflammation is a physiologic response to damage triggered by infection, injury or chemical irritation. Chronic inflammation produces repeated damage to cells and tissues, which can induce a variety of human diseases including cancer. Verteporfin, an FDA approved drug, is used for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration. The anti-tumor effects of verteporfin have been demonstrated by a number of studies. However, fewer studies focus on the anti-inflammatory functions of this drug. In this study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effects and potential mechanisms of verteporfin. The classic lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation cell model was used. RAW 264.7 cells were pre-treated with verteporfin or vehicle control, followed by LPS stimulation. Verteporfin inhibited IL-6 and TNF-α at mRNA and protein expression levels. This effect was mediated through inhibition of the NF-κB and JAK/STAT pathways. Finally, verteporfin exhibited an anti-inflammation effect by crosslinking of protein such as NF-κB p65, JAK1, JAK2, STAT1, or STAT3 leading to inflammation. Taken together, these results indicate that verteporfin has the potential to be an effective therapeutic agent against inflammatory diseases.
