- A Cu(II) complex [CuCl(C19H20N40)]ClO4 1 containing hydroxymethyl substituted TPA (TPA = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine) was prepared. It crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c with a = 11.7628(2), b = 13.0083(3), c = 15.11280(10) Angstrom, beta = 108.724(2)degrees, V = 2190.09(7) Angstrom(3), M-r = 518.83, Z = 4, T = 293 (2) K, D-c = 1.574 g/cm(3), mu = 1.280 mm(-1), F(000) = 1060 and S = 1.085. The final R = 0.0543 and wR = 0.1433 for 2693 observed reflections with I >2sigma(I). The penta-coordinated copper (H) complex. assumes an approximate square pyramidal geometry. Cyclic voltammetry measurement of the complex showed a quasi-reversible Cu-II/Cu-I redox couple with E-1/2 -0.467 v and DeltaE = 68 mv.

- Seven new manganese(II, III, IV) pyridinecarboxylate compounds (Et4N)[MnCl2(pic)(2)] (1, Hpic = picolinic acid) [MnCl(Pic)(2)(H2O)].H2O (2), [MnCl(pic)(H2O)2](n) (3), [Mn(Pic)(2)](n) (4), [MnCl(pic)](n) (5), [MnCl2(4-C5H4NHCOO)](n) (6) and [Mn2O2(pic)(4)] (7) were synthesized and structurally characterized. The picolinate ligand coordinates to the Mn ion forming a chelating five-membered ring which constructs diverse architectures by various bridging modes, such as mu-Cl, mu(1,1)(-) and mu(1,3)-carboxylate bridges (syn-syn and syn-anti modes). The interaction between the pyridyl rings is discussed, displaying a face-to-face pi-pi stacking for complex 6 and a T-shaped C-H...pi attraction for complex 4. Complex 3 has an infinite zigzag chain structure in which two neighboring Mn ions are linked by a carboxylate bridge in a syn-anti mode. In complex 4, the Mn(pic)(2) fragments are joined to each other by double mu(1,1)-carboxylate bridges, forming a 2D layer structure. Complex 5 contains Mn4O4 square subunits which are connected by double mu-Cl bridges to form a grid-like 2D structure. The isonicotinate complex 6 has a zigzag chain structure containing mixed double mu-Cl and mu(1,3)-carboxylate bridges in a syn-syn mode. Protonation at the pyridyl-N position was found and identified by the IR and magnetic properties of 6. The participation of an oxidizing agent like MnO4- leads to complexes containing higher valent manganese (1, 2 and 7). The IR spectra of these complexes are discussed and found to be consistent with the structural features. The magnetic properties of complexes 4, 5 and 6 have been investigated. Antiferromagnetic coupling interactions were observed and satisfactory fitting results were obtained with J values ranging from -0.63 cm(-1) to -2.35 cm(-1). The magnetic parameters of these complexes, together with the parameters of other Mn complexes with comparable structures, are compared and discussed based on the bridging modes.

- By using the shake-flask procedure, the distribution ratios (D) at infinite dilution and 298.1 K of 15 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) between room-temperature ionic liquids, 1-alkyl-3-methylimiazolium hexafluorophosphates ([CnMIM] [PF6], n = 4 and 8), and water were determined. The log D values are in the range of 3.34-4.36, which increased very slowly with the molar mass of PAHs.

- Hematogenous spread of tumor cells and metastasis formation in the liver are insidious aspects of cancer progression and are not frequently amenable to curative treatment. We examined the effect of Linomide and antibody-targeted therapy against the formation of hepatic metastases in vivo. For this purpose, syngenic B16 melanoma cells transfected with GA733-2 (a human colon cancer cell surface antigen) were injected into a mesenteric vein of C57/Bl6 mice. To test bacterial superantigen (Sag) targeting for immunotherapy of liver metastases, we used genetically fused proteins consisting of SEA and a Fab moiety of a GA733-2 tumor-reactive antibody (C215Fab-SEA). Linomide dose-dependently reduced hepatic metastases, and at 300 mg/kg this reduction was more than 80%. Treatment with C215Fab-SEA decreased metastases formation by 49% and the combination of Linomide and C215Fab-SEA was found to completely abolish liver metastases (>99% reduction). Taken together, our novel data suggest that Linomide and antibody-targeted superantigen therapy individually markedly reduce and together abolish liver metastases. Considering that current therapy of hepatic metastases is mainly limited to surgical resection in a subgroup of patients, these findings indicate that Linomide alone or in combination with antibody-targeted superantigen may provide a novel approach against liver metastases.

- Objective: Roquinimex is a modulator of the immune system and has been shown to attenuate induction of several inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The objective of the present study was to determine the efficacy of roquinimex in a model of murine colitis. Materials and methods: For this purpose, Balb/c mice were exposed to 5% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) in the drinking water for five to six days. Roquinimex (300 mg kg(-1) day(-1)) was administered by subcutaneous (s.c.) injection 3 days prior to and throughout the treatment period with DSS. In separate experiments, 300 mg kg(-1) day(-1) of roquinimex was given therapeutically after initiation of DSS challenge. Results: DSS provoked clinical signs of colitis, reduced crypt height (CH) and increased mucosal damage score (MDS) as analyzed by histology. In addition, challenge with DSS increased the colonic content of myeloperoxidase (MPO). Prophylactic administration of DSS-treated mice with roquinimex significantly reduced clinical signs of colitis, MDS and the CH-reduction. Moreover, in roquinimex treated animals, the MPO activity was significantly reduced by more than 50% compared to DSS control mice. Notably, therapeutic administration of roquinimex in DSS-treated mice also significantly inhibited the MDS, CH-reduction and MPO activity. Conclusions: These findings suggest that roquinimex strongly inhibits murine colitis and may provide a novel pharmacological approach to treat inflammatory bowel disease.
