Patterning along the anteroposterior axis is a critical step during animal embryogenesis. Although mechanisms of anteroposterior patterning in the neural tube have been studied in various chordates, little is known about those of the epidermis. To approach this issue, we investigated patterning mechanisms of the epidermis in the ascidian embryo. First we examined expression of homeobox genes (Hrdll-1, Hroth, HrHox-1 and Hrcad) in the epidermis. Hrdll-1 is expressed in the anterior tip of the epidermis that later forms the adhesive papillae, while Hroth is expressed in the anterior part of the trunk epidermis. HrHox-1 and Hrcad are expressed in middle and posterior parts of the epidermis, respectively. These data suggested that the epidermis of the ascidian embryo is patterned anteroposteriorly. In ascidian embryogenesis, the epidermis is exclusively derived from animal hemisphere cells. To investigate regulation of expression of the four homeobox genes in the epidermis by vegetal hemisphere cells, we next performed hemisphere isolation and cell ablation experiments. We showed that removal of the vegetal cells before the late 16-cell stage results in loss of expression of these homeobox genes in the animal hemisphere cells. Expression of Hrdll-1 and Hroth depends on contact with the anterior-vegetal (the A-line) cells, while expression of HrHox-1 and Hrcad requires contact with the posterior-vegetal (the B-line) cells. We also demonstrated that contact with the vegetal cells until the late 32-cell stage is sufficient for animal cells to express Hrdll-1, Hroth and Hrcad, while longer contact is necessary for HrHox-1 expression. Contact with the A-line cells until the late 32-cell stage is also sufficient for formation of the adhesive papillae. Our data indicate that the epidermis of the ascidian embryo is patterned along the anteroposterior axis by multiple inductive influences from the vegetal hemisphere cells and provide the first insight into mechanisms of epidermis patterning in the chordate embryos.

This review summarizes the synthesis, reactions, and biological activities of tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline derivatives. These derivatives were synthesized by several methods such as i) from the reaction of 2-chloroquinoline with sodium azide ii) from diazotization 2-hydrazinylquinoline derivatives, and iii) from intramolecular cyclocondensation of 2-azidoarylidenes. Also, the chemical reactions and pharmacological activities of some tetrazoloquinolines such as tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline-4-carbaldehyde, 5-chlorotetrazolo[ 1,5-a]quinoline, 4-(chloromethyl)tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline, tetrazolo[1,5- a]quinoline-4-carboxylic acid, and 5-azidotetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline were discussed.

The title amino derivatives VI and XIV were prepared by nucleophilic substitution of p-toluenesulfonyl derivatives II and XVII with sodium azide or hydrazine and subsequent reduction. Nucleophilic substitution of compounds II and XVII with sodium benzoate was also investigated. The 1H NMR spectra of the substances prepared are discussed.

The synthesis of 6-aminoisomannide is easily achieved starting from the renewable, inexpensive and commercially available isosorbide, in 66% overall yield. A biocatalysed highly regioselective acetylation of the 3-endo hydroxyl group of isosorbide was followed by the stereospecific interconversion of the 6-exo hydroxyl group into azido group, through reaction with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride followed by nucleophilic displacement of the triflate group by sodium azide. Finally, reduction of the azido group and deacetylation of the 3-hydroxy group were performed one pot by using LiAlH4.

The mechanism of the Cu(i)-catalyzed domino reaction furnishing 1-aryl-1,2,3-triazole assisted by CuI and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) is explored with density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
