In a set of experiments, we demonstrated that the combination of alkyl succinates and dilinoleic acid-based monomers produces biocompatible polyesters outperforming, biologically and mechanically, polymers used for bioapplications such as PVC, PLGA and PCL.

: The goal of the biotransformation process is to develop structural changes and generate new chemical compounds, which can occur naturally in mammalian and microbial organisms, such as filamentous fungi, and represent a tool to achieve enhanced bioactive compounds. Cunninghamella spp is among the fungal models most widely used in biotransformation processes at phase I and II reactions, mimicking the metabolism of drugs and xenobiotics in mammals and generating new molecules based on substances of natural and synthetic origin. Therefore, the goal of this review is to highlight the studies involving the biotransformation of Cunninghamella species between January 2015 and March 2021, in addition to updating existing studies to identify the similarities between the human metabolite and Cunninghamella patterns of active compounds, with related advantages and challenges, and providing new tools for further studies in this scope.

o-Aminophenol and N-(2-methoxyphenyl)hydroxylamine are human metabolites of the industrial and environmental pollutant and bladder carcinogen 2-methoxyaniline (o-anisidine). The latter one is also a human metabolite of another pollutant and bladder carcinogen, 2-methoxynitrobenzene (o-nitroanisole). Here, we investigated the ability of rat hepatic micro- somes to metabolize these metabolites. N-(2-methoxyphenyl)hydroxylamine is metabolized by rat hepatic microsomes to o-aminophenol and predominantly o-anisidine, the parent carcinogen from which N-(2-methoxyphenyl)hydroxylamine is formed. In addition, two N-(2-methoxyphenyl)hydroxylamine metabolites, whose exact structures have not been identified as yet, were generated. On the contrary, no metabolites were found to be formed from o-aminophenol by rat hepatic microsomes. Whereas N-(2-methoxyphenyl)hydroxylamine is responsible for formation of three deoxyguanosine adducts in DNA, o-aminophenol seems to be a detoxication metabolite of N-(2-methoxyphenyl)hydroxylamine and/or a parental carcinogen, o-anisidine; no o-aminophenol-derived DNA adducts were found after its reaction with microsomal cytochromes P450 and peroxidases.

Abstract A review of recent studies of the pharmacology of cyclophosphamide is presented. Particular attention is paid to the use of mass spectrometry in the identification of the active compound phosphoramide mustard as a circulating human metabolite of cyclophosphamide, the development of an assay method for cyclophosphamide, phosphoramide mustard, and nornitrogen mustard, and a demonstration that alkylation by phosphoramide mustard proceeds through a symmetrical aziridinium ion.
