    Abstract: A method of preparing a crystalline zwitterionic zinc(II)-carboxylate compound includes the steps of preparing a mixture of zinc(II) ions and a first pyridyl ligand having three carboxylic acid moieties; subjecting the mixture to conditions under which a precipitate is formed; separating the precipitate; adding a solvent and optionally a second pyridyl ligand to the separated precipitate; subjecting the obtained mixture to conditions under which crystals of the zwitterionic zinc(II)-carboxylate compound are formed; and separating the crystals of the zwitterionic zinc(II)-carboxylate compound. Preferably but not exclusively, the crystalline zwitterionic zinc(II)-carboxylate compound essentially consists of at least one 1D coordination polymer. The compounds are suitable for providing a sensing platform for detecting the presence or amount of target nucleic acid, particularly HIV-1 ds-DNA, with specificity, and, thus, a method of detecting a target nucleic acid sequence in a sample and a kit including the compounds and an oligonucleotide probe are also provided.

    Abstract: A method of preparing a crystalline contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging from a zwitterionic carboxylic pyridyl ligand includes mixing metal ion and the pyridyl ligand and obtaining crystals therefrom. The crystalline contrast agent includes a manganese-organic or gadolinium-organic 3D framework. The crystalline contrast agent is employed in a kit and a pharmaceutically acceptable composition. The method allows for preparing crystalline contrast agents with superior properties with easily available starting materials and with an economic and efficient process. The method allows for preparing crystalline contrast agents with exceptional water-stability and water-solubility, which exhibit high longitudinal relaxivities and with excellent stabilities under physiological conditions and low cytotoxicity. Further provided is a method for in vivo imaging of a subject, in particular a human, comprising administering the crystalline contrast agent to the subject.

    Abstract: A method of isolating at least one phenanthroindolizidine alkaloid, in particular with telomerase inhibitory activity, from Tylophora atrofolliculata is used to isolate and obtain for example about six to eight phenanthroindolizidine alkaloids, including at least four new phenanthroindolizidine alkaloids which have not been previously isolated. Experimental tests confirmed an exceptional telomerase inhibitory activity of the phenanthroindolizidine alkaloids isolated. A pharmaceutical composition includes at least one phenanthroindolizidine alkaloid and at least one pharmaceutical tolerable excipient. Still further, a method of treating a subject suffering from cancer includes administering at least one phenanthroindolizidine alkaloid isolated from Tylophora atrofolliculata. Also, a method of treating a subject suffering from cancer includes administering to the subject at least one phenanthroindolizidine alkaloid having certain formula.

    Abstract: A method of isolating at least one sphingolipid portion selected from a sphingoid base portion, a ceramide portion, a glycosphingolipid portion or a phosphosphingolipid portion from Cordyceps, in particular from wild-type Cordyceps, allows for obtaining sphingolipid portions having an increased amount of one of sphingoid bases, ceramides, glycosphingolipids or phosphosphingolipids. The sphingolipid portions isolated contained significant amounts of sphingolipids not reported so far, and possess exceptional immunosuppressive activities. A method of treating a subject suffering from an inflammatory disease like an autoimmune disease or an allergic disease includes administering sphingolipids isolated from Cordyceps, in particular from wild-type Cordyceps. A method of treating a subject suffering from an inflammatory disease includes administering certain sphingolipids to the subject. Still further in accordance with the present invention is a composition, in particular a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one sphingolipid portion.
