TL;DR: The purpose of this Review is to serve as a teaching tool for all practitioners of the field by giving and illustrating guidelines to increase redox economy in multistep organic synthesis.
Abstract: "Economy" is referred to as the thrifty and efficient use of material resources, as the principle of "minimum effort to reach a goal." More illuminating is: "the aim to portion one's forces in order to use as little as possible of them to reach a goal." Such statements certainly apply when the goal is to synthesize a complex target molecule. Redox economy then implies the use of as few redox steps as possible in the synthetic conquest of a target compound. While any sort of economy will help to streamline the effort of total synthesis, redox economy addresses a particularly weak area in present-day total synthesis. It is not enough to point out the present deficiencies, rather the purpose of this Review is to serve as a teaching tool for all practitioners of the field by giving and illustrating guidelines to increase redox economy in multistep organic synthesis.

TL;DR: A hitherto unrecognized cross‐talk between ovarian hormones could be crucial for their growth‐promoting effects on cancer cells, as shown in progestins and T47D cell proliferation.
Abstract: The molecular mechanisms by which ovarian hormones stimulate growth of breast tumors are unclear. It has been reported previously that estrogens activate the signal‐transducing Src/p21 ras /Erk pathway in human breast cancer cells via an interaction of estrogen receptor (ER) with c‐Src. We now show that progestins stimulate human breast cancer T47D cell proliferation and induce a similar rapid and transient activation of the pathway which, surprisingly, is blocked not only by anti‐progestins but also by anti‐estrogens. In Cos‐7 cells transfected with the B isoform of progesterone receptor (PR B ), progestin activation of the MAP kinase pathway depends on co‐transfection of ER. A transcriptionally inactive PR B mutant also activates the signaling pathway, demonstrating that this activity is independent of transcriptional effects. PR B does not interact with c‐Src but associates via the N‐terminal 168 amino acids with ER. This association is required for the signaling pathway activation by progestins. We propose that ER transmits to the Src/p21 ras /Erk pathway signals received from the agonist‐activated PR B . These findings reveal a hitherto unrecognized cross‐talk between ovarian hormones which could be crucial for their growth‐promoting effects on cancer cells.

TL;DR: A highly specific monoclonal antibody directed against the C-terminal part of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) was raised to immunohistochemically evaluate the distribution of GLP1 containing cells in the entire gastrointestinal tract including pancreas of rat, pig and man.
Abstract: A highly specific monoclonal antibody directed against the C-terminal part of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) was raised to immunohistochemically evaluate the distribution of GLP-1 containing cells in the entire gastrointestinal tract including pancreas of rat, pig and man. In the pancreas GLP-1-immunoreactive cells were found variously shaped and predominantly located in the periphery of the islets. Ultrastructurally, GLP-1 was co-localized with glucagon in the alpha-granula of A-cells and was mainly restricted to the electrondense core. In the intestine open type cells reaching the lumen via a slender apical process were stained with the GLP-1 antibody. They occurred in all parts of the crypts but predominantly in the basal portion. The density of GLP-1 immunoreactive cells varied between species in a characteristic order: rat greater than pig greater than man. In pig and human gut a large number of cells occurred in the distal jejunum and ileum. A continuous increase of cell densities was found from the proximal to the distal colon resulting in highest numbers in the rectum. In rats the highest cell density occurred in the ileum. Again, a continuous increase of GLP-1-positive cell numbers was evident from the proximal to the distal portion of small and large bowel. GLP-1 was partly co-localized with PYY. The GLP-1 positive cells appeared electronmicroscopically as L-cells with the typical large granula. This morphological data indicates that GLP-1-releasing cells in the small intestine are appropriately positioned in the distal part to sense and respond to the presence of nutrients that have escaped the absorptive surface of the upper small intestine.

TL;DR: Despite some yet to be resolved challenges, the concept of emotion regulation has a broad and significant heuristic value for research in mental health.
Abstract: Purpose of reviewIn recent years, deficits in emotion regulation have been studied as a putative maintaining factor and promising treatment target in a broad range of mental disorders. This article aims to provide an integrative review of the latest theoretical and empirical developments in this rap
