A versatile strategy for C7-selective boronation of tryptophans, tryptamines, and 3-alkylindoles by way of a single-pot C2/C7-diboronation-C2-protodeboronation sequence is described. The combination of a mild iridium-catalyzed C2/C7-diboronation followed by an in situ palladium-catalyzed C2-protodeboronation allows efficient entry to valuable C7-boroindoles that enable further C7-derivatization...

Synthesis, polymorph investigation, crystallographic study, and fabrication of OFETs in solution-processed thin films C7-BTBT-C7 .

Our previous study found copy number variation of chromosome fragment 5p13.1-13.3 might involve in the progression of ovarian cancer. In the current study, the alteration was validated and complement component 7 (C7), located on 5p13.1, was identified. To further explore the clinical value of C7 in tumors, 156 malignant, 22 borderline, 33 benign and 24 normal ovarian tissues, as well as 173 non...

We consider a game where one player, the Announcer, has to communicate the value of a payoff relevant state of the world to a set of players who play a coordination game with multiple equilibria. While the Announcer and the players agree that coordination is desirable, since the payoffs of the players at the equilibria are unequal, they disagree as to which equilibrium is best. We demonstrate e...

We study the role of information exchange, leadership, and coordination in team and partnership structures. For this purpose, we view individuals jointly engaging in productive processes—a “team”—as endowed with individual and privately held information on the joint production process. Once each team member decides on whether or not to share his private information truthfully, he chooses which ...

Activation of the complement system through the classical, alternative, or lectin pathway results in the formation of the terminal complement complex. C7 plays an integral role in the assembly of this complex with target cell membranes. To date, only human C7 has been cloned and characterized; thus, in this study, we characterized the porcine complement component C7. Porcine C7 was isolated by ...

BACKGROUND Positive spinal regional and global sagittal malalignment has been repeatedly shown to correlate with pain and disability in thoracolumbar fusion. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between regional cervical sagittal alignment and postoperative outcomes for patients receiving multilevel cervical posterior fusion. METHODS From 2006 to 2010, 113 patients received multilevel pos...

Direct and site-selective C5 C7 palladium-catalyzed C−H arylations of 4-azaindazole N-oxide have been achieved. A bidentate ligand Pd(OAc)2 catalyst in toluene promoted the activation position, while a phosphine PdCl2 DMA directed arylation at position. Using this new method, synthesis C5, C7-diarylated N-oxides as well C3, C7-triarylated 4-azaindazoles was achieved towards future medicinal com...

Background: Neck roots lesion is one of the reasons for cervical and arm pain. A detailed patient evaluation could improve diagnose, reduce imaging requests, and speedy treatment of cervical pain. We tried to estimate the utility of pronator teres reflex in C6 and C7 roots irritation. Methods: Present study is composed of 118 participants including 56 with C6 and C7 lesion and 62 normal contro...
