Insertion of [1.1.1]propellane into aromatic disulfides
Herein we present the synthesis of symmetrically and unsymmetrically substituted 1,3-bissulfanylbicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes from disulfides and [1.1.1]propellane.

Vitamin D and thiol-disulfide homeostasis levels in postmenopausal women with overactive bladder syndrome [PDF]
Background: This study aimed to find a relationship between vitamin D concentration and thiol-disulfide homeostasis in the pathophysiology of overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome in postmenopausal women. Methods: A total of 76 postmenopausal women, referred

Interleukin-2 signalling is modulated by a labile disulfide bond in the CD132 chain of its receptor [PDF]
Certain disulfide bonds present in leucocyte membrane proteins are labile and can be reduced in inflammation. This can cause structural changes that result in downstream functional effects, for example, in integrin activation.

Topical ocular application of aggrelyte-2A reduces lens stiffness in mice
Presbyopia is the progressive loss of the ability of the lens to focus on nearby objects due to its increased stiffness. It occurs in the mid-40s and continues to worsen until the mid-60s.

Disulphide production by Ero1alpha-PDI relay is rapid and effectively regulated [PDF]
The molecular networks that control endoplasmic reticulum (ER) redox conditions in mammalian cells are incompletely understood. Here, we show that after reductive challenge the ER steady-state disulphide content is restored on a time scale of seconds ...

The Effect of Delivery Mode on Thiol-Disulfide Balance in the Umbilical Cord Blood
Purpose: Today, the Oxidative stress level is frequently determined through the methods examining the thiol-disulfide balance. We aimed to compare oxidative stress in elective caesarean sections (ECS) and vaginal deliveries (VD) by examining the thiol ...

Flexible aromatic disulfide monomers for high-performance self-healable linear and cross-linked poly(urethane-urea) coatings [PDF]
Implementation of the self-healing concept in coatings is challenging because they have to combine mechanical strength and chain mobility. This challenge is addressed in this work by studying the effect of the polymer microstructure on the mechanical ...

From Layers to Nanotubes: Transition Metal Disulfides TMS2
MoS2 and WS2 layered transition-metal dichalcogenides are indirect band gap semiconductors in their bulk forms. Thinned to a monolayer, they undergo a transition and become direct band gap materials.
