Abstract
Fluorine is characterized by high electronegativity and small atomic size, which provide this molecule with the unique property of augmenting the potency, selectivity, metabolic stability, and pharmacokinetics of drugs. Fluorine (F) substitution has been extensively explored in drug research as a means of improving biological activity and enhancing chemical or metabolic stability. Selective F substitution onto a therapeutic or diagnostic drug candidate can enhance several pharmacokinetic and physicochemical properties such as metabolic stability and membrane permeation. The increased binding ability of fluorinated drug target proteins has also been reported in some cases. An emerging line of research on F substitution has been addressed by using 18F as a radiolabel tracer atom in the extremely sensitive methodology of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. This review aims to report on the fluorinated drugs approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from 2016 to 2022. It cites selected examples from a variety of therapeutic and diagnostic drugs. FDA-approved drugs in this period have a variety of heterocyclic cores, including pyrrole, pyrazole, imidazole, triazole, pyridine, pyridone, pyridazine, pyrazine, pyrimidine, triazine, purine, indole, benzimidazole, isoquinoline, and quinoline appended with either F-18 or F-19. Some fluorinated oligonucleotides were also authorized by the FDA between 2019 and 2022.

Abstract
Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is a glucose derivative with fluorine at the C2 position. The molecule containing the radioactive F-18 isotope is well known from its application in positron emission tomography as a radiotracer in tumor examination. In the stable form with the F-19 isotope, FDG was proposed as a potential radiosensitizer. Since reduction processes may be relevant in radiosensitization, we investigated low-energy electron attachment to FDG with a crossed electron-molecule beam experiment and with quantum chemical calculations as well as molecular dynamics at elevated temperatures to reveal statistical dissociation. We experimentally find that the susceptibility of FDG to low-energy electrons is relatively low. The calculations indicate that upon attachment of an electron with a kinetic energy of ∼0 eV, only dipole-bound states are accessible, which agrees with the weak ion yields observed in the experiment. The temporary negative ions formed upon electron attachment to FDG may decay by a large variety of dissociation reactions. The major fragmentation channels include H2O, HF, and H2 dissociation, accompanied by ring opening.

Abstract
Numerous studies have documented that excessive fluoride intake could cause pathological damage and functional disorder in organisms. Nevertheless, the systemic mechanism of fluorosis inhibiting the proliferation and development of splenic cell is still scarce. The preliminary studies have confirmed that high-dose NaF could inhibit splenic lymphocytes proliferation in vitro and cause toxic effects on spleen development in vivo. Here this study continued to explore the signaling pathway with the methods of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot (WB), revealing the mechanism of fluorosis in the growth system. Mice in 4 groups (control, 12 mg/kg, 24 mg/kg, 48 mg/kg) were gavage administrated with NaF solution continuously for 42 days. The results suggested that NaF more than 12 mg/kg slowed down the growth of mice, inhibited spleen growth and development, which was characterized by decreasing spleen volume, and inducing splenic cell apoptosis. For the Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK signaling pathway, the mRNA and protein expression levels of Ras were significantly elevated, and the phosphorylated protein expression levels of Raf (B-Raf, C-Raf) were increased. Meanwhile, mice mRNA expression levels were increased in a time and dose-dependent manner on the 21st and 42nd days of the experiment. Additionally, the mRNA and protein levels of MEK1/2 were increased on the 21st day of the experiment, while reduced on the 42nd day. The ERK1/2 levels were significantly decreased at both 21st and 42nd days of the experiment. This study showed that NaF activated Ras to induce downstream Raf-MEK-ERK cascade reaction, but failed to activate ERK eventually, the proliferation signal from the cell surface could not transmit to the nucleus, interfering with the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, meiosis, and suppressed spleen development ultimately.

Abstract
Over the last 100-120 years, due to the ever-increasing importance of fluorine-containing compounds in modern technology and daily life, the explosive development of the fluorochemical industry led to an enormous increase of emission of fluoride ions into the biosphere. This made it more and more important to understand the biological activities, metabolism, degradation, and possible environmental hazards of such substances. This comprehensive and critical review focuses on the effects of fluoride ions and organofluorine compounds (mainly pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals) on human health and the environment. To give a better overview, various connected topics are also discussed: reasons and trends of the advance of fluorine-containing pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, metabolism of fluorinated drugs, withdrawn fluorinated drugs, natural sources of organic and inorganic fluorine compounds in the environment (including the biosphere), sources of fluoride intake, and finally biomarkers of fluoride exposure.

Abstract
During the preparative synthesis of 2-fluorocordycepin from 2-fluoroadenosine and 3′-deoxyinosine catalyzed by E. coli purine nucleoside phosphorylase, a slowdown of the reaction and decrease of yield down to 5% were encountered. An unknown nucleoside was found in the reaction mixture and its structure was established. This nucleoside is formed from the admixture of 2′,3′-anhydroinosine, a byproduct in the preparation of 3-′deoxyinosine. Moreover, 2′,3′-anhydroinosine forms during radical dehalogenation of 9-(2′,5′-di-O-acetyl-3′-bromo- -3′-deoxyxylofuranosyl)hypoxanthine, a precursor of 3′-deoxyinosine in chemical synthesis. The products of 2′,3′-anhydroinosine hydrolysis inhibit the formation of 1-phospho-3-deoxyribose during the synthesis of 2-fluorocordycepin. The progress of 2′,3′-anhydroinosine hydrolysis was investigated. The reactions were performed in D2O instead of H2O; this allowed accumulating intermediate substances in sufficient quantities. Two intermediates were isolated and their structures were confirmed by mass and NMR spectroscopy. A mechanism of 2′,3′-anhydroinosine hydrolysis in D2O is fully determined for the first time.

Abstract
The absence of fluorine from most biomolecules renders it an excellent probe for NMR spectroscopy to monitor inhibitor-protein interactions. However, predicting the binding mode of a fluorinated ligand from a chemical shift (or vice versa) has been challenging due to the high electron density of the fluorine atom. Nonetheless, reliable 19 F chemical-shift predictions to deduce ligand-binding modes hold great potential for in silico drug design. Herein, we present a systematic QM/MM study to predict the 19 F NMR chemical shifts of a covalently bound fluorinated inhibitor to the essential oxidoreductase tryparedoxin (Tpx) from African trypanosomes, the causative agent of African sleeping sickness. We include many protein-inhibitor conformations as well as monomeric and dimeric inhibitor-protein complexes, thus rendering it the largest computational study on chemical shifts of 19 F nuclei in a biological context to date. Our predicted shifts agree well with those obtained experimentally and pave the way for future work in this area.

Abstract
Fluoride is known to impair organism’s development and function via adverse effects, and autophagy plays a regulation role in human or animal health and disease. At present, there are no reports focused on fluoride-induced autophagy in the animal and human spleen. The objective of this study was to investigate sodium fluoride (NaF)-induced splenocyte autophagy and the potential mechanism via regulation of p-mTOR in growing mice by using the methods of transmission electron microscopy (TEM), immunohistochemistry (IHC), quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot. A total of 240 ICR mice were equally allocated into four groups with intragastric administration of distilled water in the control group and 12, 24, 48 mg/kg NaF solution in the experimental groups for 42 days. Results revealed that NaF increased autophagosomes or autolysosomes in spleen. Simultaneously, the autophagy marker LC3 brown punctate staining was increased with NaF dosage increase. On the other hand, NaF caused inhibition of mTOR activity, which was characterized by down-regulation of PI3K, Akt and mTOR mRNA and protein expression levels. And the suppression of mTOR activity in turn resulted in the significantly increased of ULK1 and Atg13 expression levels. Concurrently, NaF increased the levels of mRNA and protein expression of autophagy markers LC3, Beclin1, Atg16L1, Atg12, Atg5 and decreased the mRNA and protein expression levels of p62. The above-mentioned findings verify that NaF induces autophagy via mTOR signaling pathway. The inhibition of mTOR activity and alteration of autophagy-related genes and proteins are the potential molecular mechanism of NaF-induced splenocyte autophagy.

Abstract
A novel β-carboline-based chemosensor, having an acidic NH proton that leads to fluoride-induced deprotonation involving a vivid color change from colorless to yellow is described. The absorption spectrum of the chemosensor in acetonitrile has a peak at 375 nm, which changes to 428 nm with the gradual addition of only fluoride in the solution with a clear isosbestic points at 357 nm and 392 nm. More interestingly, the chemosensor gives a turn-on type of fluorescence at 554 nm in the presence of fluoride. Further it was found that the sensor is highly selective towards fluoride over other anions including chloride, bromide, iodide, nitrate, borate, perchlorate and can quantitatively detect fluoride at ppb level with a limit of detection of 0.02 mg/ L or 20 ppb. The chemosensor was successfully demonstrated to assess the fluoride concentration in the tap water.

Abstract
Efforts to chemically modify nucleic acids got underway merely a decade after the discovery of the DNA double helix and initially targeted nucleosides and nucleotides. The origins of three analogues that remain staples of modification strategies and figure prominently in FDA-approved nucleic acid therapeutics can be traced to the 1960s: 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoro-RNA (2'-F RNA), 2'- O-methyl-RNA (2'- OMe RNA), and the phosphorothioates (PS-DNA/RNA). Progress in nucleoside phosphoramidite-based solid phase oligonucleotide synthesis has gone hand in hand with the creation of second-generation (e.g., 2'- O-(2-methoxyethyl)-RNA, MOE-RNA) and third-generation (e.g., bicyclic nucleic acids, BNAs) analogues, giving rise to an expanding universe of modified nucleic acids. Thus, beyond site-specifically altered DNAs and RNAs with a modified base, sugar, and/or phosphate backbone moieties, nucleic acid chemists have created a host of conjugated oligonucleotides and artificial genetic polymers (XNAs). The search for oligonucleotides with therapeutic efficacy constitutes a significant driving force for these investigations. However, nanotechnology, diagnostics, synthetic biology and genetics, nucleic acid etiology, and basic research directed at the properties of native and artificial pairing systems have all stimulated the design of ever more diverse modifications. Modification of nucleic acids can affect pairing and chemical stability, conformation and interactions with a flurry of proteins and enzymes that play important roles in uptake, transport or processing of targets. Enhancement of metabolic stability is a central concern in the design of antisense, siRNA and aptamer oligonucleotides for therapeutic applications. In the antisense approach, uniformly modified oligonucleotides or so-called gapmers are used to target a specific RNA. The former may sterically block transcription or direct alternative splicing, whereas the latter feature a central PS window that elicits RNase H-mediated cleavage of the target. The key enzyme in RNA interference (RNAi) is Argonaute 2 (Ago2), a dynamic multidomain enzyme that binds multiple regions of the guide (antisense) and passenger (sense) siRNAs. The complexity of the individual interactions between Ago2 and the siRNA duplex provides significant challenges for chemical modification. Therefore, a uniform (the same modification throughout, e.g., antisense) or nearly uniform (e.g., aptamer) modification strategy is less useful in the pursuit of siRNA therapeutic leads. Instead, unique structural features and protein interactions of 5'-end (guide/Ago2MID domain), seed region, central region (cleavage site/Ago2 PIWI domain), and 3'-terminal nucleotides (guide/Ago2 PAZ domain) demand a more nuanced approach in the design of chemically modified siRNAs for therapeutic use. This Account summarizes current siRNA modification strategies with an emphasis on the regio-specific interactions between oligonucleotide and Ago2 and how these affect the choice of modification and optimization of siRNA efficacy. In addition to standard assays applied to measure the effects of modification on the stability of pairing and resistance against nuclease degradation, structural insights based on crystallographic data for modified RNAs alone and in complex with Ago2 from molecular modeling studies are a valuable guide in the design of siRNA therapeutics. Thus, this comprehensive approach is expected to result in accelerated generation of new siRNA-based therapies against various diseases, now that the first siRNA has obtained approval by the US FDA for treatment of hereditary hATTR amyloidosis.

Abstract
Background Histamine is a well-known mediator involved in skin allergic responses through up-regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Antihistamines remain the mainstay of allergy treatment, but they were found limited in efficacy and associated with several common side effects. Therefore, alternative therapeutic preferences are derived from natural products in an effort to provide safe yet reliable anti-inflammatory agents. Curcumin and their derivatives are among compounds of interest in natural product research due to numerous pharmacological benefits including anti-inflammatory activities. Here, we investigate the effects of chemically synthesized curcumin derivative, 2,6-bis(2-fluorobenzylidene)cyclohexanone (MS65), in reducing cytokine production in histamine-induced HaCaT cells. Methods Interleukin (IL)-6 cytokine production in histamine-induced HaCaT cells were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and cytotoxicity effects were determined using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was carried out to determine the inhibitory effects of MS65 on nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways. Results Histamine enhanced IL-6 production in HaCaT cells, with the highest production of IL-6 at 97.41 ± 2.33 pg/mL after 24 h of exposure. MS65 demonstrated a promising anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting IL-6 production with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 4.91 ± 2.50 μM and median lethal concentration (LC50) value of 28.82 ± 7.56 μM. In gene expression level, we found that MS65 inhibits NF-κB and MAPK pathways through suppression of IKK/IκB/NFκB and c-Raf/MEK/ERK inflammatory cascades. Conclusion Taken together, our results suggest that MS65 could be used as a lead compound on developing new medicinal agent for the treatment of allergic skin diseases.

Suppressive effects of sodium fluoride on cultured splenic lymphocyte proliferation in mice. Oncotarget 2018; 7:61905-61915.

Abstract
Fluoride-induced immunotoxicity has been documented in vivo, but limited reports have focused on the effects of fluoride on lymphocytes in vitro. Therefore, we have examined the suppressive effects of sodium fluoride on cultured splenic lymphocytes in mice. CD3+ T lymphocytes, CD19+ B lymphocytes, cytokines, and cell-cycle markers were analyzed through the use of a cell-counting kit, western blot, and flow cytometery. Splenic lymphocytes were isolated from 3-week-old male ICR mice and exposed to sodium fluoride (0, 100, 500, and 1000 μmol/L) for 24 h. The percentages of CD3+, CD3+CD4+, CD3+CD8+ T lymphocytes and CD19+ B lymphocytes were decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01) in the sodium fluoride-exposed cells. This finding was correlated with the alterations in expression levels of cytokine proteins and with evidence of cell-cycle arrest. Thus, protein expression levels of IL-2, TNF-α, IFN-γ, TGF-β were decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and IL-10 protein expression levels were increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The percentage of lymphocyte in G1 phase was significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01), while expression levels of cyclin E/D and CDK2/4 were markedly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). These findings demonstrate that sodium fluoride exposure suppresses splenic lymphocyte proliferation, which is represented by reducing populations and activation of splenic T and B lymphocytes. Alterations of cytokine protein expression and cell cycle arrest are the molecular basis of the sodium fluoride-suppressed splenic lymphocyte proliferation, while reduction of T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes is the explanation of sodium fluoride-decreased splenic immune function in vitro.

Abstract
Polyphenols are natural compounds showing a variety of health-promoting effects. Unfortunately, due to low lipid solubility, their applications in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries are limited. With the aim of obtaining novel lipophilic derivatives, the present study reports the synthesis of a series of phenethyl trifluoroacetate esters containing up to two hydroxyl groups in the aromatic ring. Experimental logP values confirmed a greater lipophilicity of the novel compounds compared to the parent compounds. The radical scavenging capacity of all phenethyl trifluoroacetate esters was evaluated by in vitro assays (ABTS, DPPH) and in cultured cells (L6 myoblasts and THP-1 leukemic monocytes) using 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate. These data revealed that the esters showed a good antioxidant effect that was strictly dependent on the grade of hydroxylation of the phenyl ring. The lack of toxicity, evaluated by the MTT assay and proliferation curves, makes these trifluoroacetates attractive derivatives for pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic applications.

Abstract
A UV photolysis decomposition (UVPD) method for the determination of fluoride in fluorine containing pharmaceuticals by spectrophotometry is reported. It is based on the use of high intensity UV-irradiation in the presence of a digesting solution comprising a mixture of acetone and isopropanol. For the optimization of the UVPD procedure, three bulk drugs (levofloxacin, nebivolol and efavirenz) were chosen as representatives of three diverse compounds containing a single fluorine atom, two fluorine atoms, and trifluoromethyl groups respectively. Operational conditions of the UVPD method, such as concentration and volume of reagents (acetone and isopropyl alcohol), and UV irradiation time (1–6 minutes) were optimized. The efficiency of digestion was evaluated by the determination of fluoride in sample digests. Using the developed method, it was possible for complete conversion of the organofluoride to free fluoride ion for its subsequent determination by spectrophotometry based on bleaching of Zr–xylenol orange-color complex. Quantitative recovery (>98%) of the fluorine in the drug samples could be achieved using a mixture of 2% acetone + 2% isopropyl alcohol + 0.003% Na2CO3 in just 5 minutes of UV irradiation, which can be considered an important aspect considering the difficulties involved in the cleavage of the C–F bond. Accuracy was evaluated by comparison of results obtained by the UVPD method with the values estimated using formula weight of the compound and no statistical difference was observed between the results. Therefore, the proposed method is suitable for application in routine analysis of fluoride in organofluorine-containing drugs.

Abstract
Exposure to high fluorine can cause toxicity in human and animals. Currently, there are no systematic studies on effects of high fluorine on blood cellular immunity and humoral immunity in mice. We evaluated the alterations of blood cellular immunity and humoral immunity in mice by using flow cytometry and ELISA. In the cellular immunity, we found that sodium fluoride (NaF) in excess of 12 mg/Kg resulted in a significant decrease in the percentages of CD3+, CD3+CD4+, CD3+CD8+ T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood. Meanwhile, serum T helper type 1 (Th1) cytokines including interleukin (IL)-2, interferon (IFN)-γ, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and Th2 cytokines including IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, and Th17 cytokine (IL-17A) contents were decreased. In the humoral immunity, NaF reduced the peripheral blood percentages of CD19+ B lymphocytes and serum immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin G (IgG) and immunoglobulin M (IgM). The above results show that NaF can reduce blood cellular and humoral immune function in mice, providing an excellent animal model for clinical studies on immunotoxicity-related fluorosis.

Abstract
It has been reported that excessive intake of fluoride can induce renal lesions. However, its pathogenesis is still less understood. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate oxidative damage and the relationships between the oxidative damage and renal lesions in fluoride-treated mice by using the methods of histopathology, biochemistry, flow cytometry and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). A total of 240 ICR mice were randomly divided into four equal groups (sodium fluoride was given orally at the dose of 0, 12, 24 and 48 mg/kg body weight for 42 days, respectively). We found that fluoride in excess of 12 mg/kg induced renal oxidative damage, which was characterized by increasing the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) and protein carbonyls (PC), and decreasing the abilities of anti-superoxide anion (ASA) and anti-hydroxyl radical (AHR), glutathione (GSH) content, as well as activities and mRNA expression levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px). Concurrently, fluoride caused degeneration and necrosis of the tubular cells, renal tubular hyaline casts and glomeruli swelling, which were consistent with the alteration of renal function parameters including elevated contents of serum creatinine (Cr), serum uric acid (UA), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and the activities of urinary N-acetyl-b-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), renal lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and reduced activities of sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na+/K+-ATPase) and acid phosphatase (ACP) in the kidney. The above-mentioned results showed that fluoride in excess of 12 mg/kg induced renal oxidative damage, which then caused renal lesions and dysfunctions. These findings also clearly demonstrated that oxidative damage is one of the mechanisms of fluoride-induced renal lesions and dysfunctions.

Abstract
A series of Schiff bases synthesized by the condensation of benzohydrazide and -NO2 substituted benzaldehyde have been used as selective fluoride ion sensor. Test paper coated with these synthetic Schiff bases (test kits) can detect fluoride ion selectively with a drastic color change and detection can be achieved by just using the naked-eye without the help of any optical instrument. Interestingly, the position of -NO2 group in the amido Schiff bases has an effect on the sensitivity as well as on the change of color of species.

Abstract
Which elements are essential for human life? Here we make an element-by-element journey through the periodic table and attempt to assess whether elements are essential or not, and if they are, whether there is a relevant code for them in the human genome. There are many difficulties such as the human biochemistry of several so-called essential elements is not well understood, and it is not clear how we should classify elements that are involved in the destruction of invading microorganisms, or elements which are essential for microorganisms with which we live in symbiosis. In general, genes do not code for the elements themselves, but for specific chemical species, i.e. for the element, its oxidation state, type and number of coordinated ligands, and the coordination geometry. Today, the biological periodic table is in a position somewhat similar to Mendeleev's chemical periodic table of 1869: there are gaps and we need to do more research to fill them. The periodic table also offers potential for novel therapeutic and diagnostic agents, based on not only essential elements, but also non-essential elements, and on radionuclides. Although the potential for inorganic chemistry in medicine was realized more than 2000 years ago, this area of research is still in its infancy. Future advances in the design of inorganic drugs require more knowledge of their mechanism of action, including target sites and metabolism. Temporal speciation of elements in their biological environments at the atomic level is a major challenge, for which new methods are urgently needed.

Abstract
Fluorinated graphene oxide (FGO) is reported for the first time as a magnetically responsive drug carrier that can serve both as a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and photoacoustic contrast agent, under preclinical settings, and as a type of photothermal therapy. Its hydrophilic nature facilitates biocompatibility. FGO as a broad wavelength absorber, with high charge transfer and strong non-linear scattering is optimal for NIR laser-induced hyperthermia.

Abstract
The use of fluorine in molecules obtained from chemical synthesis has become increasingly important within the pharmaceutical and agricultural industry. NMR characterization of these compounds is of great value with respect to their structure elucidation, their screening in metabolomics investigations and binding studies. The favorable NMR properties of the fluorine nucleus make NMR with fluorine detection of great value in this respect. A suite of NMR 2D F-F- and F-C-correlation experiments with fluorine detection was applied to the assignment of resonances, (n)J(CF)- and (n)J(FF)-couplings as well as the determination of their size and sign. The utilization of this experiment suite was exemplarily demonstrated for a highly fluorinated vinyl alkyl ether. Especially F-C HSQC and J-scaled F-C HMBC experiments allowed determining the size of the J-couplings of this compound. The relative sign of its homo- and heteronuclear couplings was achieved by different combinations of 2D NMR experiments, including non-selective and F2-selective F-C XLOC, F2-selective F-C HMQC, and F-F COSY. The F2-one/two-site selective F-C XLOC versions were found highly useful, as they led to simplifications of the common E.COSY patterns and resulted in a higher confidence level of the assignment by using selective excitation. The combination of F2-one/two-site selective F-C XLOC experiments with a F2-one-site selective F-C HMQC experiment provided the signs of all (n)J(CF)- and (n)J(FF)-couplings in the vinyl moiety of the test compound. Other combinations of experiments were found useful as well for special purposes when focusing for example on homonuclear couplings a combination of F-F COSY-10 with a F2-one-site selective F-C HMQC could be used. The E.COSY patterns in the spectra demonstrated were analyzed by use of the spin-selective displacement vectors, and in case of the XLOC also by use of the DQ- and ZQ-displacement vectors. The variety of experiments presented shall contribute to facilitate the interpretation of F-C correlations as well as to open alternative pathways for the determination of size and signs of homo- and heteronuclear couplings of multiply fluorinated small molecules.

Abstract
Fluoxetine (Flux) is a fluorine-containing drug that selectively inhibits serotonin reuptake. It is widely prescribed as a treatment for depression disorders. Hepatic side effects have been reported during Flux therapy. These reports led us to investigate the involvement of oxidative stress mechanisms in liver injury caused by Flux. It has been shown that exposure to fluoride (F(-)) induces excessive production of free radicals and affects the antioxidant defense system. Based on this knowledge, we examined the F(-) concentration in serum and urine during administration of Flux. In our study, the effects of one month of Flux treatment on lipid and protein peroxidation, the concentration of uric acid in the liver and the activity of transaminases and transferases in the serum were investigated in rats. Eighteen adult male Wistar rats were divided into three equal groups of six animals each: (I) controls who drank tap water and received 1 ml of tap water intragastrically; (II) animals that received 8 mg Flux/kg bw/day intragastrically; and (III) animals that received 24 mg Flux/kg bw/day intragastrically. Flux treatment increased of the levels of carbonyl groups, thiobarbituric acid reactive species (TBARS) and the uric acid content in the liver. The activities of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST) and glutathione-S transferase (GST) increased in the serum of the treated groups. The Flux levels in the plasma of the treated rats increased significantly in a dose-dependent manner. We observed no changes in the concentration of fluoride in either the serum or the urine of treated rats compared to the control group. In conclusion, our study indicates that Flux induces liver damage and mediates free radical reactions. Our data also indicate that Flux does not release F(-) during metabolism and does not affect physiological levels of F(-) in the serum or urine.

Abstract
Various chemical modifications are currently being evaluated for improving the efficacy of short interfering RNA (siRNA) duplexes as antisense agents for gene silencing in vivo. Among the 2'-ribose modifications assessed to date, 2'deoxy-2'-fluoro-RNA (2'-F-RNA) has unique properties for RNA interference (RNAi) applications. Thus, 2'-F-modified nucleotides are well tolerated in the guide (antisense) and passenger (sense) siRNA strands and the corresponding duplexes lack immunostimulatory effects, enhance nuclease resistance and display improved efficacy in vitro and in vivo compared with unmodified siRNAs. To identify potential origins of the distinct behaviors of RNA and 2'-F-RNA we carried out thermodynamic and X-ray crystallographic analyses of fully and partially 2'-F-modified RNAs. Surprisingly, we found that the increased pairing affinity of 2'-F-RNA relative to RNA is not, as commonly assumed, the result of a favorable entropic contribution ('conformational preorganization'), but instead primarily based on enthalpy. Crystal structures at high resolution and osmotic stress demonstrate that the 2'-F-RNA duplex is less hydrated than the RNA duplex. The enthalpy-driven, higher stability of the former hints at the possibility that the 2'-substituent, in addition to its important function in sculpting RNA conformation, plays an underappreciated role in modulating Watson-Crick base pairing strength and potentially π-π stacking interactions.

Abstract
A number of N-bis(trifluoromethyl)alkyl-N'-thiazolyl and -benzothiazolyl ureas have been synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative activities against the human cancer cell lines at the National Cancer Institute (NCI, USA). The activity was shown for compounds 8a,c and 9a-c. The most sensitive cell lines relative to the tested compounds are: 8c PC-3 (prostate cancer, logGI(50) -7.10), 9c SNB-75 (CNS cancer, logGI(50) -5.84), 9b UO-31 (renal cancer, logGI(50) -5.66), and SR (leukemia, logGI(50) -5.44) human cancer cells.
