Direct noninvasive estimation of myocardial tricarboxylic acid cycle flux in vivo using hyperpolarized 13C magnetic resonance

Rolf Gruetter, Arnaud Comment, Hongxia Lei, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, Tian Cheng

BACKGROUND: The heart relies on continuous energy production and imbalances herein impair cardiac function directly. The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is the primary means of energy generation in the healthy myocardium, but direct noninvasive quantificati ...

Capture and Release of CO2 in Monoethanolamine Aqueous Solutions: New Insights from First-Principles Reaction Dynamics

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci, Changru Ma

Aqueous,monoethanolamine (MEA) solution is commonly used for post-combustion carbon capture via chemical absorption. Extensive research has been carried out to characterize both uptake and release of carbon dioxide (CO2), with the aim of improving process ...

Hydrogen Storage in the Carbon Dioxide - Formic Acid Cycle

Gabor Laurenczy, Cornel Fink, Mickael Montandon-Clerc

This year Mankind will release about 39 Gt carbon dioxide into the earth's atmosphere, where it acts as a greenhouse gas. The chemical transformation of carbon dioxide into useful products becomes increasingly important, as the CO2 concentration in the atm ...

Storage of Renewable Energy by Reduction of CO2 with Hydrogen

Andreas Züttel, Philippe Mauron, Elsa Callini, Shunsuke Kato, Marco Roman Holzer

The main difference between the past energy economy during the industrialization period which was mainly based on mining of fossil fuels, e.g. coal, oil and methane and the future energy economy based on renewable energy is the requirement for storage of t ...

Chemical Equilibria in Formic Acid/Amine-CO2 Cycles under Isochoric Conditions using a Ruthenium(II) 1,2-Bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane Catalyst

Gabor Laurenczy, Katerina Stefania Sordakis

The equilibrium position in formic acid/amine–CO2 systems has been examined as a function of pressure and tem- perature under isochoric conditions. The homogeneous ruthe- nium(II)-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane catalyst was active in both reactions, that ...

Adjusting the Local Arrangement of π‑Stacked Oligothiophenes through Hydrogen Bonds: A Viable Route to Promote Charge Transfer

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Antonio Prlj, Jérôme Florian Gonthier, Hongguang Liu, Eric Albert Georges Bremond

We show that substituting quaterthiophene cores with strong H-bond aggregators, such as urea groups, provides an efficient way to adjust the mutual in-plane displacements of the semiconducting units and promote charge transfer. Our 2-D structure-property m ...

Ammonia toxicity to the brain

Cristina Ramona Cudalbu Moldovan

Hyperammonemia can be caused by various acquired or inherited disorders such as urea cycle defects. The brain is much more susceptible to the deleterious effects of ammonium in childhood than in adulthood. Hyperammonemia provokes irreversible damage to the ...

Randomized codon mutagenesis reveals that the HIV Rev arginine-rich motif is robust to substitutions and that double substitution of two critical residues alters specificity

Maroun Bou Sleiman

The binding of the arginine-rich motif (ARM) of HIV Rev protein to its high-affinity site in stem IIB in the Rev response element (RRE) initiates assembly of a ribonucleoprotein complex that mediates the export of essential, incompletely spliced viral tran ...
