In Silico to In Cerebro—Development of the Orexin Receptor Antagonist “Photorexant” for Photomodulation In Vitro and in Mouse Brains

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Following a structure‐based design approach, photoswitchable derivatives of the FDA‐approved drug suvorexant were designed, docked, synthesized, and characterized pharmacologically at the orexin 1 and 2 receptors (OX1R and OX2R). Optimized “photorexant” showed up to an 11‐fold difference in IC50 between photoisomers, enabled dynamic and reversible ...

Revisiting Securidaca longipedunculata Seed Oil: Applying NMR and Mass Spectroscopy to Confirm the Presence of 2‐Acetyl‐1,3‐Diacyl–sn‐Glycerols and Conjugated Hydroxydienoic Fatty Acids

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
The manuscript confirms and expands on previous reports concerning the presence of unusual conjugated hydroxydienoic fatty acids and acetyl‐TAG in the seed oil of Securidaca longipedunculata. The location of acetate only at sn‐2 of TAG was conclusively shown by high resolution NMR and hydroxy seed fatty acids are characterized.

Pricing of Longevity Derivatives and Cost of Capital

Risks, 2019
Annuities providers become more and more exposed to longevity risk due to the increase in life expectancy. To hedge this risk, new longevity derivatives have been proposed (longevity bonds, q-forwards, S-swaps…).

Foam Injection Molded Stereocomplex PLA: Processing, Thermal Behavior and Foam Structure

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The processing of stereocomplex poly(lactic acid) (sc‐PLA) via continuous compounding followed by thermoplastic foam injection molding is investigated. A controlled two‐stage cooling strategy effectively promotes sc‐dominated crystallization of the granulates.

Effects of Flat-Side Design on Torsional and Bending Stress of Nickel–Titanium File by Finite Element Analysis

Bioengineering
Background: This study evaluated the effects of flattening the side of the bending resistance and torsional resistance of nickel–titanium files through finite element analysis of a novel flattened file and a standard nonflattened file.

Belgium through the Lens of Rail Travel Requests: Does Geography Still Matter?

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2016
This paper uses on-line railway travel requests from the iRail schedule-finder application for assessing the suitability of that kind of big data for transportation planning and to examine the temporal and regional variations of the travel demand by ...

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...
