ABSTRACT

Autophagy is a highly conserved cellular homeostasis maintenance mechanism in eukaryotes. Microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3) plays a crucial role in autophagy. It has multiple pairs of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) with other proteins, and these PPIs have an effect on the regulation of autophagosome formation and the recruitment of autophagic substrates. In our previous work, a small molecule covalent inhibitor DC-LC3in-D5 which could inhibit LC3A/B PPIs was identified, but a detailed study of structure-activity relationships (SARs) was lacking. Herein, a new molecule LC3in-C42 was discovered utilizing the hybridization of advantageous fragments, whose potency (IC50 = 7.6 nM) had been greatly improved compared with that of DC-LC3in-D5. LC3in-C42 inhibits autophagy at the cellular level and its efficacy far exceeds that of DC-LC3in-D5. Thus far, LC3in-C42 stands as the most potent LC3A/B small molecule inhibitor. LC3in-C42 could serve as a powerful tool for LC3A/B protein and autophagy research.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Emotional and spiritual intelligence are crucial factors in enhancing individuals' knowledge and academic achievement. This study aims to examine the correlation between spiritual intelligence, emotional intelligence, and student achievement through a systematic review and meta-analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A search was conducted in the PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, SID, and Google Scholar databases from 2007 to December 2022. The effect sizes (EF) included the mean and standard deviation of emotional intelligence, spiritual intelligence, and student achievement and correlation coefficients among spiritual intelligence, emotional intelligence, and student achievement. Random effects models were used to pool the results, and the Q test and I2 index were employed to assess heterogeneity. Correlation coefficients were transformed into standard data (Z) using log transformation. RESULTS: The overall mean score of educational achievement in university and school students was 15.91 (95% CI: 15.26-16.78). The mean scores of spiritual and emotional intelligence were 138.27 (95% CI: 129.19-147.35) and 128.94 (95% CI: 117.08-140.80), respectively. The correlation coefficients between spiritual intelligence, emotional intelligence, and student achievement were r = 0.36 (95% CI: 0.18-0.51) and r = 0.50 (95% CI: 0.28-0.67), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Emotional and spiritual intelligence are independent predictive factors in educational achievement for university and school students. Therefore, improvements in emotional and spiritual intelligence can promote students' academic achievement.

ABSTRACT

Disclosed herein is a Pd(ii)-catalyzed C(sp3)-H/P-H oxidative cross-coupling reaction between 8-methylquinolines with H-phosphonates or diarylphosphine oxides via chelation-assisted C(sp3)-H bond activation. The protocol exhibits a relatively broad functional-group tolerance and exclusive chemo- and regioselectivity. Furthermore, detailed mechanistic studies support the proposed reaction pathway.
