RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Kamebakaurin is an active constituent of both Rabdosia japonica and Rabdosia excisa, which are utilized in Chinese traditional medicine for improving symptoms in patients with allergies. We investigated the molecular mechanisms of the anti-allergic effects of kamebakaurin using BMMCs. METHODS: The degranulation ratio, histamine release, and the interleukin (IL)-4, leukotriene B4 (LTB4), and cysteinyl leukotriene productions on antigen-triggered BMMC were investigated. Additionally, the effects of kamebakaurin on signal transduction proteins were examined by Western blot and binding to the Syk and Lyn kinase domain was calculated. The effects of kamebakaurin on antigen-induced hyperpermeability were investigated using mouse model. RESULTS: At 10 µ
RESUMO
ObjectivesãThis study targeted public health nurses in a Japanese municipality that had newly adopted the core components of the Finnish system to provide continuous support to families with children until preschool. It sought to analyze changes in their perceptions for activities in maternal and child health care before and after the adoption.MethodsãRelevant data were collected through semi-structured focus group interviews, following an interview guide, conducted from September to October 2020. The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Osaka City University in Japan.ResultsãA total of 12 public health nurses participated. Prior to the adoption of the system modelled on Finnish practice, these nurses were dedicated to addressing the risks regarding families with children (especially those at high risk) through continuous engagement. However, they were hesitant to proactively engage with families at lower risk as non-continuous, one-off engagements resulted in a patchwork response. After the system was adopted, the nurses became aware of the trust cultivated with families under their care, which included those at lower risk, that enabled them to respond to the changing needs flexibly. The nurses recognized that they had acquired the capability to notice the subtle signs of changes, engage more proactively with the families under their care, and deliver the necessary preventive interventions at an early stage. They also demonstrated joy and satisfaction derived from the growth of children and mothers under their care, as well as keen awareness of the need to improve their professional skills, even though they were busy.ConclusionãThese findings indicate that the continuous support system modelled on the core components from Finland enables public health nurses to proactively engage with families at lower risk and deliver preventive interventions at an early stage. The system also motivated Japanese public health nurses who found greater pleasure in their work.

The photocatalyst-free C-H γ,γ,γ-trifluoroalkylation of quinolines under visible light irradiation is reported. By the combination of readily available alkenes and Umemoto's reagent II, a variety of γ,γ,γ-trifluoroalkyl groups were installed into quinolines via chemoselective sequential radical processes. This transformation provides rapid access to a variety of quinoline derivatives with scarcely explored fluoroalkyl groups, affording a novel library of N-heteroaromatic compounds and versatile building blocks for applications in medicinal chemistry.
RESUMO
Cp*Co(III)-catalyzed (Cp*=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) C-H bond functionalization of 6-arylpurines using gem-difluoroalkenes and allyl fluorides is described. The reaction with gem-difluoroalkenes afforded monofluoroalkenes with high (Z)-selectivity, while the reaction with allyl fluorides led to C-H allylation in moderate (Z)-selectivity. Both reactions proceeded using a user-friendly single-component catalyst [Cp*Co(CH3CN)3](SbF6)2 in fluorinated alcohol solvents without any additives. Robustness was also demonstrated by a preparative-scale reaction under air.

Cp*Co(III)-catalyzed C-H allylation of various aromatic C-H bonds using allyl alcohols as allylating reagents is described. Improved reaction conditions using fluorinated alcohol solvents afforded efficient directed C-H allylation of 6-arylpurines, benzamides, and a synthetically useful Weinreb amide with good functional group compatibility.
