“In July 2023, Gonsalves entered a trial of bitopertin at MGH first. It felt like a last-ditch effort.
Bitopertin was initially tested for use in patients with central nervous system disorders, but showed little success. It also had the side effect of decreasing the production of porphyrins.”

Happy Halloween! Here's a fun fact about owls for spooky season. Owls fluoresce pink under UV light. This is due to pigments called porphyrins, and helps researchers age owls. There are more pigments on new feathers, so younger owls glow more uniformly bright pink.

Model thiophene-decorated nickel porphyrins for tandem CO2 reduction - Nature Synthesis
Model thiophene-decorated nickel porphyrins are synthesized to examine how sulfur promotes CO2-to-CO conversion and tandem CO2-to-C2 product conversion in electrocatalytic CO2 reduction. Combined theoretical and experimental analyses show that thiophene substituents generate a ligand hole character that modulates the nickel-centred electronic structure, enhancing overall catalytic performance.

18-member nanoring pushes the boundaries of global aromaticity
Pushing the limits of size constraints in chemistry, an 8-nanometer 18-porphyrin nanoring (c-P18) becomes the largest known cyclic molecule to exhibit detectable global aromaticity. This phenomenon, where π-electrons are delocalized not just over individual aromatic units but around the entire macrocyclic ring, is mostly seen in smaller aromatic molecules but rarely found in macrocyclic entities.
