The Verkhne-Yuriev Thermal Springs: The Evolution of Chemical and Isotope Compositions (1952–2022) in Relation to Active Periods of Ebeko Volcano, Paramushir Island
This paper describes the chemical composition of the thermal waters discharging on the northwestern slope of the active Ebeko Volcano in the Yuriev River valley. We are using continuous multiyear observations of the evolution of chemical and isotope compositions to estimate the response of volcanic events to the state of the hydrothermal system. It is shown that phreatomagmatic eruptions of the volcano were preceded by a change in the chemical and isotope compositions of thermal waters caused by increased inflow of magmatic volatiles into the system. The springs are observed to show increased concentrations of anion-generating components (chloride, sulfate, and fluorine ions) with concurrent increases in heavier isotopes of oxygen and hydrogen (deuterium) toward “andesitic” water. Recalling that the changes were detected a few months before the eruption, we infer that such geochemical effects can serve as predictive markers when monitoring the state of the volcano
Изучение коллекционного материала озимой твердой пшеницы на наличие гена устойчивости к септориозу Stb2
In order to obtain high yields of winter durum wheat, it is necessary not only to use advanced agricultural technologies, but also to sow varieties resistant to major diseases. One of these diseases that cause great harm to grain crops is Septoria leaf blotch. The current paper has presented the study results of collection material of Russian and foreign winter durum wheat according to the efficiency of the Septoria leaf blotch resistance gene Stb2 in the North Caucasus region. The purpose of the current study was to identify the Septoria leaf blotch resistance gene Stb2 in the collection material of winter durum wheat. The study was carried out in 2017–2018 in the laboratory of marker breeding of the FSBSI “ARC “Donskoy” in Zernograd. In the course of the study there have been applied such methods as the isolation of genomic DNA by the CTAB-method, PCR-analysis with the molecular SSR marker WMS533, electrophoresis on 2% agarose gel, analysis of electrophoresis gels in the Bio-Rad Image Lab 6.0 software, general data analysis by Microsoft Excel. The study has shown that 29 samples out of 185 analyzed ones had the Septoria leaf blotch resistance gene Stb2, they are the lines L3557 h42, L3182 h7, L3335 h29, L3336 h43, L3408 h218 (Russia, FSBSI “Research Center of Plants named after P. P. Lukyanenko”), K-61620 (Russia), K-54455, DF 917 (Romania), K-61924, K-59179, K-51863, K-61869 (Moldova), K-63871 (Turkey), Kharkovskaya 909 (Ukraine), MVTD-15-99 (Hungary), 2196-1/04, 922/93, 589/13, 655/13, 683/13, 145/14, 322/14, 484/14, Gordeiform 1424/82 (Russia, FSBSI “ARC “Donskoy”), Beliy Parus (Ukraine), Belgorodskaya Yantarnaya (LLC “Sativa” in Belgorod, Russia), IR named after V. Ya. Yuriev (Kharkov, Ukraine)), Zhivitsa (Russia, Prikumskaya OSS), Pandur (Romania) and Elidur (Romania). There have been recommended using the identified samples of winter durum wheat with the Septoria leaf blotch resistance gene Stb2 in breeding programs
Busca racional por moléculas bioativas em modelos de diabetes, leucemia e tuberculose
Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências Físicas e Matemáticas. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Química.Esta tese apresenta o desenho racional de moléculas bioativas baseadas na estrutura de fármacos (ou moléculas ativas) e está subdividida em três capítulos de acordo com cada patologia-alvo: 1) diabetes; 2) leucemia e 3) tuberculose. No capítulo 1, foram planejadas e sintetizadas sulfonamidas e sulfonil(tio)uréias, baseadas na estrutura da glibenclamida, para obtenção de potenciais agentes hipoglicemiantes, num total de 22 compostos, sendo 15 inéditos. A sulfonamida 5, mostrou a mais pronunciada atividade, contribuindo para a homeostase da glicose, uma vez que é equipotente a glibenclamida, mas sem provocar sobrecarga das células-? nos processos de secreção. No capítulo 2, foram sintetizadas quatro classes de compostos: acil-hidrazonas, oxadiazóis, imidas e tiazolidinonas baseadas nos fármacos colchicina e combretastatina A-4, num total de 62 moléculas, sendo 34 estruturas inéditas. 29 foi o composto mais potente, com atividade de 15nM frente às células da linhagem Jurkat e de 25nM em células REH, apresentando baixa toxicidade para células normais, e como mecanismo de ação, a inibição da tubulina. No capítulo 3, apresenta-se o primeiro estudo de screening virtual de bibliotecas de compostos na PtpB de M. tuberculosis, baseados na única estrutura de raio-X disponível PtpB:OMTS. Na primeira etapa, realizou-se o screening da biblioteca de produtos naturais com mais de 800 compostos resultando na identificação do composto mais ativo, competitivo e seletivo: Kuwanol E (Ki =1,6 µM). Em uma segunda etapa, foi analisada a biblioteca de compostos comerciais Drugs Now do banco de dados ZINC, com mais de 5 milhões de estruturas, resultando na seleção de 13 moléculas através de docking/rescoring
