Metabolically stable HDAC inhibitors with trifluoromethylpyruvamide as metal-binding group
Project ID: TECH-2023-25 Background Histone Deacetylases (HDACs) have been studied extensively for their role in regulating expression of genes and proteins involved in cancer cell proliferation and migration. The Zinc Binding Group (ZBG) is an essential component of the HDAC inhibitor pharmacophore. It binds to the zinc ion in the enzyme active...

Novel Ferroptosis Inducers To Treat Cancer
Project ID: D2022-15 Background ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic cell death mechanism impelled by unrestrained accumulation of iron-dependent cellular reactive oxygen (ROS) species leading to membrane lipid peroxidation resulting from intra-cellular antioxidant depletion. Clinical application of ferroptosis agents/drugs has been elusive due to off-target...

Ferroptosis-HDAC Inhibitor Hybrids for treating cancer
Project ID: D2022-16 Background Many cancer treatments target cells and induce apoptosis, a cell death mechanism. Due to genetic instability, tumors become more heterogeneous leading to cells that avert molecular signatures that are targeted by the cancer drugs. Drug resistance remains a major impediment to the success of a cancer treatment. Combinatorial...

PMU-Embedded Analytics for Online Event Detection and Classification in Power Grids
The energy requirement of the world is increasing exponentially every year. With the power demand sites concentrated in the region with the highest population density, energy production sites must be located remotely. This isolation requires lengthy and complicated grids to be designed and manufactured to transmit power over long distances. Grid failures...

Small Drug-like Molecules as Anticancer Agents for NSCLC
Project ID: D2013-04Background Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. More than 80% of the lung cancer deaths belong to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The 5-year survival rate of patients with NSCLC is about 16% with current treatments including surgery, radiation and other classic chemotherapeutic agents and targeted...

Distributed Feedback Fiber Laser Pumped by Multimode Diode Lasers
Researchers at the University of Arizona College of Optical Sciences and Canada's Carleton University recently succeeded in fabricating high reflectivity (>99%) Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) into phosphate glass fibers using UV light and a phase mask technique. With this new manufacturing technique, fiber lasers can be created as single monolithic...

All-Fiber Multicore Fiber Laser Devices
Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed a compact, power-scalable, alignment-free fiber laser that takes a new approach to stabilizing phase-locked operation of multi-core fiber lasers by completely removing all free space optical components. This high-brightness, all-fiber laser package uses passive optical fiber spliced at both ends...
