Abstract:
Owing to the inherent ability of amides to chelate transition-metal catalysts, amide-directed C–H activation reactions constitute a major tactic in directed C–H activation reactions. While the conventional procedures for these reactions usually involve prior preparation and purification of amide substrates before the C–H activation, the step economy is actually undermined by the operation of installing the directing group (DG) and related substrate purification. In this context, directed C–H activation via in situ amidation of the crude material provides a new protocol that can significantly enhance the step economy of amide-directed C–H activation. In this short review, the advances in C–H bond activation reactions mediated or initiated by in situ amidation are summarized and analyzed.1 Introduction2 In Situ Amidation in Aryl C–H Bond Activation3 In Situ Amidation in Alkyl C–H Bond Activation4 Annulation Reactions via Amidation-Mediated C–H Activation5 Remote C–H Activation Mediated by Amidation6 Conclusion

Abstract:
AbstractSynthetic transformations of otherwise inert C–H bonds have emerged as a powerful tool for molecular modifications during the last decades, with broad applications towards pharmaceuticals, material sciences, and crop protection. Consistently, a key challenge in C–H activation chemistry is the full control of site-selectivity. In addition to substrate control through steric hindrance or kinetic acidity of C–H bonds, one important approach for the site-selective C–H transformation of arenes is the use of chelation-assistance through directing groups, therefore leading to proximity-induced ortho-C–H metalation. In contrast, more challenging remote C–H activations at the meta- or para-positions continue to be scarce. Within this review, we demonstrate the distinct character of ruthenium catalysis for remote C–H activations until March 2021, highlighting among others late-stage modifications of bio-relevant molecules. Moreover, we discuss important mechanistic insights by experiments and computation, illustrating the key importance of carboxylate-assisted C–H activation with ruthenium(II) complexes.1 Introduction2 Stoichiometric Remote C–H Functionalizations3 meta-C–H Functionalizations4 para-C–H Functionalizations5 meta-/ortho-C–H Difunctionalizations6 Conclusions

Abstract:
The Wnt signalling pathways play crucial roles in development, tissue patterning, and stem cell fate determination. These pathways are therefore an attractive therapeutic target in the field of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) are useful tools in bio-engineering. Previous work from our group has demonstrated the efficacy of targeting and activating cell signalling pathways using MNP functionalised with targeting proteins coupled with magnetic fields to remotely torque the MNP. Using this approach, in this work MNP were functionalised with ligands targeted to cell surface Frizzled receptors which are involved in Wnt signal transduction. The effects of remote stimulation with MNP on Wnt pathway activity were then assessed in human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC). Results demonstrated that targeting of Frizzled receptors with MNP and remote stimulation using magnetic fields remotely activated Wnt signalling pathways. This was indicated by nuclear mobilisation of β-catenin and activation of a TCF/LEF luciferase reporter. The effect of remote Wnt pathway activation on hMSC osteogenesis was subsequently assessed. Activation was shown to augment hMSC differentiation in monolayer experiments where expression of osteogenic markers increased. This strategy also had beneficial effects on bone formation in an ex vivo foetal chick femur model as indicated by μCT and histology. The role of spatial Wnt gradients on bone formation is also important in development and was investigated using a tissue engineering platform utilising immobilised Wnt protein. In conclusion, these studies demonstrate the use of MNP to remotely activate Wnt signalling pathways and have shown potential in directing hMSC differentiation. This provides proof of concept for new injectable therapies that modulate cell signalling pathways with applications in regenerative medicine.

Abstract:
Background Remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) is the phenomenon where brief non-harmful ischaemia to a remote organ can confer protection to the heart against a future insult. Most commonly delivered with a sphygmomanometer on the arm, RIPC has been shown to confer protection when delivered prior to primary or elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The mechanism by which this occurs is not clearly defined. Coronary microcirculatory function is an important determinant of patient prognosis at the time of PCI. Platelets play an important role in the pathophysiology of coronary atherosclerosis related thrombotic events, with platelet inhibition an integral component of the clinical management of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) including those undergoing PCI. Given the important role of both the microcirculation and platelet inhibition at the time of PCI, this project was designed to investigate the effect of RIPC on these two prognostically important factors. Methods and results This thesis has examined 1) the effect of RIPC on coronary artery physiology and 2) the effect of RIPC on platelet activation in response to platelet agonists and the interaction between these effects and antiplatelet medications. To study the effect of RIPC on coronary artery physiology and microcirculatory function, a randomised blinded placebo controlled trial was performed. Patients with a clinical indication for fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement were randomised to receive RIPC or sham treatment while on the catheterisation table. A comprehensive coronary physiology study was performed with a temperature-pressure sensor coronary guidewire before and immediately after the allocated treatment. The index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) and coronary flow reserve (CFR) were measured as markers of microcirculatory function. RIPC was associated with a significant reduction in the calculated IMR (median (interquartile range), 22.6 (17.9-25.6) vs 17.5 (14.5-21.3), P=0.007) and a significant increase in the CFR (mean ± standard deviation, 2.6 ± 0.9 vs 3.8 ± 1.7, P=0.001). These changes were associated with a reduction in hyperaemic transit time (0.33 (0.26-0.40) vs 0.25 (0.20-0.30), P=0.01) indicating an increase in coronary blood flow. There was no effect on FFR. Sham treatment had no effect on any coronary physiology parameter. Analysis of plasma stored from blood collected before and after RIPC/sham treatment found no changes in plasma nitrite, cGMP or adrenomedullin with RIPC. There was a reduction in plasma 6-keto-PGF1α (the metabolite of prostacyclin) with RIPC. The effect of RIPC on platelet activation was studied in a separate randomised controlled trial where patients referred for coronary angiography were randomised prior to their procedure to RIPC or sham treatment. Venous blood was collected from the contralateral arm before and immediately after their allocated treatment, prior to cardiac catheterisation. Platelets were stimulated in whole blood with adenosine diphosphate, protease activated receptor-1 agonist (SFLLRN), thrombin with and without collagen, and analysed by flow cytometry for expression of CD62P (marker of α-granule release), CD63 (marker of dense granule and lysosome release) and conformationally active glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa) (PAC-1 binding). RIPC was associated with decreased platelet PAC-1 binding in response to SFLLRN (50.4% (31.3-73.2) vs 49.3% (23.0-67.7), P=0.002) and thrombin and collagen (79.5 ± 11.9% vs 68.9 ± 22.5%, P<0.001). Similar effects were seen in patients on both aspirin and a P2Y12 receptor inhibitor. Despite their role in regulating GPIIb/IIIa activation, there was no effect of RIPC on plasma cAMP and cGMP levels or intra-platelet phosphorylated-VASP levels. RIPC was also assessed for its effects on the generation of procoagulant platelets, identified by the uptake of 4-(N-(S-glutathionylacetyl)amino) phenylarsonous acid (GSAO, an intracellular cell death marker) and staining for CD62P (GSAO+/CD62P+). RIPC decreased circulating levels of procoagulant platelets in the circulation (2.0% (1.3-2.4) vs 1.3% (1.1-2.1), P=0.01), whereas sham had no effect. In the subgroup of patients on aspirin monotherapy, RIPC was associated with a reduction in procoagulant platelet formation in response to SFLLRN (11.4±5.2% vs 8.9±2.8%, P=0.04) and thrombin (12.9±5.9% vs 8.7±3.2%, P=0.04). In order to determine the mechanism behind the RIPC-mediated attenuation of procoagulant platelet formation, further patients were studied to assess for the effects of RIPC on platelet mitochondrial membrane potential using a fluorescent potential-sensitive probe (TMRE). RIPC was associated with a significant reduction in platelet mitochondrial membrane depolarisation in response to a range of thrombin (P=0.001) and thrombin and collagen (P=0.01) concentrations. To investigate whether RIPC modifies the plasma microRNA profile, plasma stored from blood collected before and after RIPC/sham in the platelet cohort was analysed. Plasma microRNA was extracted from paired plasma samples collected from 4 patients treated with RIPC. The plasma microRNA profile before and after RIPC was compared with a card based quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) array system and identified 6 candidate species which appeared to be increased with RIPC. A validation study was performed in the entire randomised platelet cohort (n=60) by extracting microRNA from paired plasma samples collected from patients before and after treatment with either RIPC or sham, and measuring the levels of the 6 candidate species with specific reverse transcription and qPCR reactions. This demonstrated no definite difference with RIPC over sham treatment in any of the 6 microRNA species. Conclusion RIPC leads to rapid improvements in coronary microcirculatory function as demonstrated by validated catheterisation based coronary physiology measurements. Additionally, RIPC attenuated platelet GPIIb/IIIa activation in response to potent platelet agonists which are present at the site of complicated atherosclerotic plaques. Attenuation of GPIIb/IIIa activation was evident in patients on contemporary antiplatelet therapy, suggesting benefit additional to these medications. RIPC also reduced the level of circulating procoagulant platelets. Reductions in procoagulant platelet activity appeared to be due to RIPC-mediated reduction in platelet mitochondrial membrane depolarisation. These novel actions of RIPC are likely to contribute to the beneficial effects of RIPC during elective and primary PCI.

The precious control of the biomolecule releasing on specific localizations of the cell is the key issue for further bio-medical application of bio-functionalized nanomaterials. Herein, we demonstrate that DNA functionalized gold nanorods can be used as a gene carrier. Under the infrared radiation, the structural transformation of gold nanorods into spherical gold nanoparticles results in the realses of DNA in the cells. The cells with the radiation generate the gene expression locally. Our results suggest that the new gene activated technigue using DNA functionalized gold nanorods as a carrier is applicable for gene therapy for specific cells.

Abstract:
The work describes the development of a new class of protein-inhibitors for protein-protein interactions, based on metallopeptides comprised of a dirhodium metal center. The metal incorporation in the peptide sequence leads to high increase in binding affinity of the inhibitors. The source of this strong affinity is the interaction of histidine on the protein surface with the rhodium center. In addition to this work, rhodium-based small molecule inhibitors for FK-506 binding proteins are investigated. Also, methodology for rhodium-catalyzed modification of proteins containing surface cysteine has been developed where a simple rhodium(II) complex catalyzes cysteine modification with diazo reagents. The reaction is marked by clean cysteine selectivity and mild reaction conditions. The resulting linkage is significantly more stable in human plasma serum, when compared to common maleimide reagents. Apart from this body of work in chemical-biology, the thesis contains the discussion of development of copper-catalyzed remote chlorination of alkyl hydroperoxides. The atom transfer chlorination utilizes simple ammonium chloride salts as the chlorine source and the internal redox process requires no external redox reagents.

Abstract:
This thesis explores how policy is enacted – in this case, the Australian Government’s labour market program for remote unemployed people, initially known as the Remote Jobs and Communities Program (RJCP) and then the Community Development Programme (CDP). It outlines the development and delivery of the program from 2011, when the then Labor Government identified the need for a specific remote employment program, placing the employment participation of remote Indigenous people (who made up over 80% of the remote unemployed) at centre stage. It examines the changes that occurred to the program following the 2013 election of a Coalition Government, including the introduction of ‘continuous’ Work for the Dole. The focus of the thesis is on how patterns of practice have emerged in these programs, in particular: how providers have responded; how frontline workers navigate their roles; and how ‘Work for the Dole’ actually operates. What emerges is a gulf between bureaucratic and political ambitions for these programs and the ways in which participants and frontline workers view and enact them. This is more than a problem of poor implementation or the subversions of street-level bureaucrats and clients. There is evidence of a more fundamental failure of technologies of settler-state government as they are applied to remote Indigenous peoples. On the remote, intercultural frontiers of the labour market, the limits of centralised attempts at ‘reform’ become clear. Practices intended to tutor Indigenous people in the ways of the labour market are emptied of meaning. The Indigenous people who are the targets of governing efforts fail to conform with desired behaviours of ‘self-governing’ citizens, even in the face of escalating penalties. As a result, government ambitions to transform the behaviours and subjectivities of Indigenous people are reduced to bureaucratic rituals, represented in numbers and graphs on computer screens in Canberra.

Red phosphors with high efficiency in general, and those with excellent intrinsic property in particular, excited by ultraviolet or blue light-emitting diodes are significant white light sources for our daily life. Nitride-based phosphors, such as Sr2Si5N8:Eu2+ and CaAlSiN3:Eu2+, are commonly more red-shifted in photoluminescence and have better thermal/chemical stability than oxides because of high covalency. Cation substitutions are usually performed to optimize photoluminescence and thermal quenching behavior. However, the underlying mechanisms are unclear in most cases. Hence, we show that neighboring-cation substitution systematically controls temperature-dependent photoluminescence behavior in CaAlSiN3:Eu2+ lattice. The trivalent cation substitution at the Ca2+ site degrades the photoluminescence in high temperature environment, but the substituted cation turning monovalent achieves better thermal stability. The Neighboring-cation control of lifetime decay is also observed. A remote control effect that guides Eu2+ activators in selective Ca2+ sites is proposed for neighboring-cation substitution while compositional Al3+/Si4+ ratio adjusts to the valance of Mn+ (n = 1-3) cation. In this effect, the Eu2+ activators are surrounded with anion clustering neighbored with M3+-dominant and Si4+/Al3+-equivalent coordination when M is trivalent (e.g La3+), but shift to the site where surrounded anion clustering neighbor with M+-dominant and Si-rich coordination when M is monovalent (e.g Li+). This mechanism can efficiently tune optical properties especially thermal stability and could be general to luminescent materials, which are sensitive to local valence variation in local environments.

Abstract:
Abstract A great diversity of definitions of creative tourists exist, ranging from those who refer to visitors of dance, art, or handicraft workshops, to those who include people who take up temporary artistic residences to practice their creative expression and develop their art forms. In recent decades, we have observed the emergence of a new generation of travellers. These tourists are increasingly seeking co-creation processes, leading to more relational forms of cultural tourism, and active participation in creative experiences. This study revolves around the answers of the participants in the questionnaire of CREATOUR. We found that creative tourism activities can attract travellers to a location: both domestic (76%) and international tourists (64%) indicated that the primary reason for visiting the locale was to participate in the creative tourism experience. This was an important finding for us given that the locations were small cities and rural areas and some were quite remote. These findings suggest the potential for repeat visitors and the need to continually evolve activities to re-attract their interest as well as the value of operating in a network where travellers' participation in a creative tourism activity at one location can lead to participation in other activities elsewhere. This potentially virtuous cycle can strengthen awareness and connectedness among organizers of creative tourism activities in smaller places and rural areas.

Abstract:
AbstractFibroblasts are key players in the maintenance of skin homeostasis and in orchestrating physiological tissue repair. Fibroblasts secrete and are embedded in a sophisticated extracellular matrix, and a complex and interactive dialogue exists between fibroblasts and their microenvironment. In addition to the secretion of the extracellular matrix, fibroblasts and myofibroblasts secrete extracellular matrix remodeling enzymes, matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors, and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases and are thus able to remodel the extracellular matrix. Myofibroblasts and their microenvironment form a network that evolves during tissue repair. This network has reciprocal actions affecting cell differentiation, cell proliferation, cell quiescence, or apoptosis and has actions on growth factor bioavailability by binding, sequestration, and activation. Mechanical forces also play a role in regulating the myofibroblast phenotype as cells are subjected to mechanical stress and mechanical signaling is activated. Innervation is also involved in both skin repair processes and differentiation of myofibroblasts. In pathological situations, for example, in excessive scarring, the dialogue between myofibroblasts and their microenvironment can be altered or disrupted, leading to defects in tissue repair or to pathological scarring, such as that seen in hypertrophic scars. Better understanding of the intimate dialogue between myofibroblasts and their local microenvironment is needed and will be important in aiding the identification of new therapeutic targets and discovery of new drugs to treat or prevent aberrant tissue repair and scarring.

Abstract:
Behavioral activation (BA) is an empirically based psychotherapy for depression that improves symptoms by increasing a client’s contact with sources of positive reinforcement by making behavioral changes. Core aspects of BA approaches include performance and monitoring of scheduled activities that are selected based on a client’s values or specific depressive behaviors. To address individual and environmental barriers to activation, many BA treatment manuals also include additional components such as mindfulness techniques, social skills training, and contingency management strategies. Evidence supports the effectiveness of BA for treating depression, and researchers have found it to be as effective as many standard treatments for depression, including pharmacotherapy, cognitive therapy, and cognitive–behavioral therapy. Future directions are discussed, such as the application of BA to special populations and settings, including for groups, remote delivery, and specific subpopulations.

Abstract:
In this paper digital control solutions for speed control of direct current motor and level control of dual water tank system are described using conventional control algorithms such as (PID (Proportional + Integral + Derivative) and PI (Proportional + Integral)) as well as intelligent control algorithms based on fuzzy logic. Appropriate software tools are used to allow remote activation of the systems. Observation of the system behavior from remote terminals is made possible using novel tele-reality capability. This capability allows realistic CAD (Computer Aided Design) drawings that accurately represent the physical systems on the remote terminals to exhibit appropriate motion corresponding to the actual movement of the physical system in the University of Maryland Eastern Shore Mechatronics and Automation Laboratory (UMESMAL).

Abstract:
The overall objective of the current proposal is to develop procedures to improve the pregnancy rate achieved following transfer of fresh or cryopreserved embryos produced in the laboratory into heat-stress recipients. The overall hypothesis is that pregnancy rate in heat-stressed lactating cows can be improved by use of embryo transfer and that additional gains in pregnancy rate can be achieved through development of procedures to cryopreserve embryos, select embryos most likely to establish and maintain pregnancy after transfer, and to enhance embryo competence for post-transfer survival through manipulation of culture conditions. The original specific objectives were to 1) optimize procedures for cryopreservation (Israel/US), 2) develop procedures for identifying embryos with the greatest potential for development and survival using the remote monitoring system called EmbryoGuard (Israel), 3) perform field trials to test the efficacy of cryopreservation and the EmbryoGuard selection system for improving pregnancy rates in heat-stressed, lactating cows (US/Israel), 4) test whether selection of fresh or frozen-thawed blastocysts based on measurement of group II caspase activity is an effective means of increasing survival after cryopreservation and post-transfer pregnancy rate (US), and 5) identify genes in blastocysts induced by insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) (US). In addition to these objectives, additional work was carried out to determine additional cellular determinants of embryonic resistance to heat shock. There were several major achievements. Results of one experiment indicated that survival of embryos to freezing could be improved by treating embryos with cytochalasin B to disrupt the cytoskeleton. An additional improvement in the efficacy of embryo transfer for achieving pregnancy in heat-stressed cows follows from the finding that IGF-1 can improve post-transfer survival of in vitro produced embryos in the summer but not winter. Expression of several genes in the blastocyst was regulated by IGF-1 including IGF binding protein-3, desmocollin II, Na/K ATPase, Bax, heat shock protein 70 and IGF-1 receptor. These genes are likely candidates 1) for developing assays for selection of embryos for transfer and 2) as marker genes for improving culture conditions for embryo production. The fact that IGF-1 improved survival of embryos in heat-stressed recipients only is consistent with the hypothesis that IGF-1 confers cellular thermotolerance to bovine embryos. Other experiments confirmed this action of IGF-1. One action of IGF-1, the ability to block heat-shock induced apoptosis, was shown to be mediated through activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway. Other cellular determinants of resistance of embryos to elevated temperature were identified including redox status of the embryo and the ceramide signaling pathway. Developmental changes in embryonic apoptosis responses in response to heat shock were described and found to include alterations in the capacity of the embryo to undergo caspase-9 and caspase-3 activation as well as events downstream from caspase-3 activation. With the exception of IGF-1, other possible treatments to improve pregnancy rate to embryo transfer were not effective including selection of embryos for caspase activity, treatment of recipients with GnRH.and bilateral transfer of twin embryos. In conclusion, accomplishments achieved during the grant period have resulted in methods for improving post-transfer survival of in vitro produced embryos transferred into heat-stressed cows and have lead to additional avenues for research to increase embryo resistance to elevated temperature and improve survival to cryopreservation. In addition, embryo transfer of vitrified IVF embryos increased significantly the pregnancy rate in repeated breeder cows.

Abstract:
Historically, the aversive response of humans and other mammals to bitter-taste substances has been useful for survival, since many toxic constituents taste bitter. Today, the range of foods available is more diverse. Many bitter foods are not only safe for consumption but contain bitter constituents that provide nutritional benefits. Despite this, these foods are often eliminated from our current diets because of their unacceptable bitterness. Extensive technology has been developed to remove or mask bitterness in foods, but a lack of understanding of the mechanisms of bitterness perception at the taste receptor level has prevented the development of inhibitors or efficient methods for reducing bitterness. In our original application we proposed to: (a) investigate the time course and effect of selected bitter tastants relevant to agricultural products on the formation of intracellular signal molecules (cAMP, IP3, Ca2+) in intact taste cells, in model cells and in membranes derived therefrom; (b) study the effect of specific bitter taste inhibitors on messenger formation and identify G-proteins that may be involved in tastant-induced bitter sensation; (c) investigate interactions and self-aggregation of bitter tastants within membranes; (d) study human sensory responses over time to these bitter-taste stimuli and inhibitors in order to validate the biochemical data. Quench-flow module (QFM) and fast pipetting system (FPS) allowed us to monitor fast release of the aforementioned signal molecules (cGMP, as a putative initial signal was substituted for Ca2+ ions) - using taste membranes and intact taste cells in a time range below 500 ms (real time of taste sensation) - in response to bitter-taste stimulation. Limonin (citrus) and catechin (wine) were found to reduce cellular cAMP and increase IP3 contents. Naringin (citrus) stimulated an IP3 increase whereas the cheese-derived bitter peptide cyclo(leu-Trp) reduced IP3 but significantly increased cAMP levels. Thus, specific transduction pathways were identified, the results support the notion of multiple transduction pathways for bitter taste and cross-talk between a few of those transduction pathways. Furthermore, amphipathic tastants permeate rapidly (within seconds) into liposomes and taste cells suggesting their availability for direct activation of signal transduction components by means of receptor-independent mechanisms within the time course of taste sensation. The activation of pigment movement and transduction pathways in frog melanophores by these tastants supports such mechanisms. Some bitter tastants, due to their amphipathic properties, permeated (or interacted with) into a bitter tastant inhibitor (specific phospholipid mixture) which apparently forms micelles. Thus, a mechanism via which this bitter taste inhibitor acts is proposed. Human sensory evaluation experiments humans performed according to their 6-n-propyl thiouracil (PROP) status (non-tasters, tasters, super-tasters), indicated differential perception of bitterness threshold and intensity of these bitter compounds by different individuals independent of PROP status. This suggests that natural products containing bitter compounds (e.g., naringin and limonin in citrus), are perceived very differently, and are in line with multiple transduction pathways suggested in the biochemical experiments. This project provides the first comprehensive effort to explore the molecular basis of bitter taste at the taste-cell level induced by economically important and agriculturally relevant food products. The findings, proposing a mechanism for bitter-taste inhibition by a bitter taste inhibitor (made up of food components) pave the way for the development of new, and perhaps more potent bitter-taste inhibitors which may eventually become economically relevant.
