The title compound, C(8)H(7)NO(4)S·H(2)O, was obtained by reaction of 2-mercaptopyridine-3-carboxylic acid with chloro-acetic acid. In the mol-ecular structure, the dihedral angle between the two least-squares planes defined by the pyridine ring and the carb-oxy group is 8.32 (9)°. The carboxy-methyl-sulfanyl group

Assessment of preactivated and thiolated silicone oils as potential long-term vitreous replacement. Thioglycolic acid (TGA) and 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) were covalently coupled to amino-modified silicone oil and subsequently preactivated with 2-mercaptonicotinic acid (2-MNA). Each silicone thiomer was evaluated in view

Nowadays, investigation for possible therapeutic applications of various metal-based drugs attracts the scientific interest worldwide. The triorganotin compound bis[triphenyltin(IV)](3-carboxy-pyridine-2-thionato) (SnMNA), was tested for its anti-proliferative and antitumor activities. Cytotoxic activity was assessed by Trypan blue and 3-(4.5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2.5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay (MTT).

3-Mercaptopicolinae (3-MP) blocks gluconeogenesis from lactate, pyruvate, alanine, and other substrates through its inhibition of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. Nevertheless, we observed increased glycogenesis, net glucose uptake, and glucose-6-P levels in livers perfused with glucose in the presence of 3-MP. In perfusions
