Hypoxia-a hallmark of solid tumors-dramatically impairs radiotherapy, one of the most common anticancer modalities. The adverse effect of the low-oxygen state can be eliminated by the concomitant use of a hypoxic cell radiosensitizer. In the present paper, we show that

A new fluorescent probe (5-[(4-diethylamino-2-hydroxy-benzylidene)-amino]-1H-pyrimidine-2, 4-dione) (Receptor 1) has been synthesized by the Schiff base condensation of 5-aminouracil with 4-(diethylamino)salicylaldehyde. The receptor 1 exhibits high selectively for Al(3+) in DMSO as well as in aqueous solution even in the presence

Meristematic cells from Allium cepa L roots can attain a steady-state of growth at both 15 and 25 degrees C in the presence of drugs, hydroxyurea and 5-amino-uracil, which reduce the rate of DNA synthesis. These drugs, at used concentrations

An interference-free naked-eye recognition of Al(3+) at its micromolar level has been done in 5% aqueous DMSO solution employing a Schiff base 5-[(2-hydroxy-5-nitro-benzylidene)-amino]-1H-pyrimidine-2,4-dione (receptor 1) which is an intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) probe. The pyrimidine and nitrophenyl groups serve as
