Synthesis and telomeric G-quadruplex-stabilizing ability of macrocyclic hexaoxazoles bearing three side chains by Ma, Yue, Iida, Keisuke, Sasaki, Shogo, Hirokawa, Takatsugu, Heddi, Brahim, Nagasawa, Kazuo, Phan, Anh Tuân

“…Here, we describe the synthesis of a new series of macrocyclic hexaoxazole-type G4 ligand (6OTD) bearing three side chains. One of these ligands, 5b, stabilizes telomeric G4 preferentially over the G4-forming DNA sequences of c-kit and K-ras, due to the interaction of its piperazinylalkyl side chain with the groove of telomeric G4.…”

Measurement of CP observables in B ± → DK ± and B ± → Dπ ± with D → K S 0 K ± π ∓ decays by Aaij, R, Abellán Beteta, C, Ackernley, T, Adeva, B, Adinolfi, M, Afsharnia, H, Aidala, CA, Aiola, S, Ajaltouni, Z, Akar, S, Albicocco, P, Albrecht, J, Alessio, F, Alexander, M, Alfonso Albero, A, Alkhazov, G, Alvarez Cartelle, P, Alves, AA, Amato, S, Amhis, Y, An, L, Anderlini, L, Andreassi, G, Andreotti, M, Bjørn, M, Fischer, KM, Gruberg Cazon, BR, Hadavizadeh, T, Hancock, TH, Harnew, N, Hill, D, John, M, Jurik, N, Li, L, Malde, S, Murphy, CH, Pili, M, Pullen, H, Renaudin, V, Rollings, A, Scantlebury Smead, LG, Wilkinson, G

“…The analysis uses samples of B mesons produced in proton-proton collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0, 2.0, and 6.0 fb−1 collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of s = 7, 8, and 13 TeV, respectively. These measurements are the most precise to date, and provide important input for the determination of the CKM angle γ.…”

Effects of azithromycin in severe eosinophilic asthma with concomitant monoclonal antibody treatment by Lavoie, G, Howell, I, Melhorn, J, Borg, C, Bermejo-Sanchez, L, Seymour, J, Jabeen, MF, Fries, A, Hynes, G, Pavord, ID, Hinks, TSC, Petousi, N

“…Azithromycin added-on to biologics reduced the annual rate of steroid-treated and antibiotic-treated exacerbations, improved symptom scores (ACQ5) but did not change lung function. This suggests azithromycin may be an effective treatment in patients on biologics with residual exacerbations.…”

Objects of Collaboration: Roles and Sequences of Objects in Spanning Knowledge Group Boundaries in Design by Brubaker, Eric R, Sheppard, Sheri D, Hinds, Pamela J, Yang, Maria C

“…We illustrate two prominent outcomes—the co-discovery of a design risk, opportunity, or bottleneck and the co-design of a joint integrated solution—and describe two object role sequences from which these outcomes seem to follow. These findings are significant because they suggest ways for designers to effectively use objects to span knowledge group boundaries.…”
