Abstract Anti-inflammatory monocyte-derived macrophages are essential to maintain tissue homeostasis but can also contribute to disease progression, notably in cancer and fibrosis. Deciphering the signaling pathways that govern their generation could therefore unlock new therapeutic opportunities. Here we uncover a previously unrecognized, non-apoptotic function of caspase-8 in driving both monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation and anti-inflammatory macrophages polarization.
Dess-Martin Periodinane-mediated oxidation of the primary alcohol of cytidine into a carboxylic acid Herein the first example of conversion of alcohols into carboxylic acids by use of the Dess-Martin Periodinane (DMP), which is otherwise routinely employed for the conversion to aldehydes, is reported. This methodology will have significant potential utility in the synthesis of cytidine analogues and other related biologically important molecules.
