The viability of producing biofuels by converting different raw materials, including rapeseed oil, palm oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, leftover cooking oil, waste frying oil, dairy scum, chicken fat, and others, has been the subject of a focused inquiry. Catalytic transesterifications have been popular methods for producing biodiesel due to their simplicity in operation, cost-effectiveness in commercial exploitation, higher biodiesel productivity, and conversion efficiency. In industrial chemical processes, heterogeneous catalysts are widely exploited because they are easy to separate from the final product and generally maintain their catalytic activity after being recycled repeatedly. Highly advanced heterogeneous catalysts, known as nanocatalysts, are frequently deployed to accelerate biodiesel production because of their remarkable catalytic activity. This review article examines the transesterification reactions facilitated by various nanocatalysts to explore their potential for promoting sustainable processes. Selected nanocatalysts are highlighted due to their exceptional catalytic efficiency and capacity to be reused.

All compounds were characterized by <sup>1</sup>HNMR, <sup>13</sup>CNMR, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Their anti-proliferation activities against HepG2 and MCF-7 cells were evaluated <em>in vitro</em>. Among these, compound <strong>7k</strong> showed significant inhibitory activity against HepG2 and MCF-7 cells with IC<sub>50</sub> values of 3.93 ± 0.54 μM and 4.75 ± 0.48 μM respectively, the IC<sub>50</sub> value of normal liver cell <span>L</span>-O2 is greater than 50 μM, SI &gt; 12.7. Nur77, an orphan nuclear receptor with diverse biological functions, was identified as a direct binding target of compound <strong>7k</strong>, as suggested by molecular docking studies. Moreover, <strong>7k</strong> also upregulated the protein level of Nur77 in a time/dose-dependent manner. The results of colony formation and scratch assay also showed that <strong>7k</strong> inhibited the proliferation and migration of HepG2. Additionally, <strong>7k</strong> induced PARP cleavage and increased the protein levels of BAX and activated caspase 3. In conclusion, <strong>7k</strong> exerts anticancer effects by inhibiting proliferation and inducing apoptosis in HepG2 cells.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16414,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Structure","volume":"1338 ","pages":"Article 142290"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143799753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
