Coenzyme Q deficiency disrupts lipid metabolism by altering cholesterol homeostasis in neurons.

Coenzyme Q (CoQ) is a critical component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. CoQ deficiencies often cause a variety of clinical syndromes, often involving encephalopathies. The heterogeneity of clinical manifestations implies different pathomechanisms, reflecting CoQ involvement in several biological processes.

Development and Validation of an LC-MS/MS Assay for the Quantitation of MO-OH-Nap Tropolone in Mouse Plasma: Application to In Vitro and In Vivo Pharmacokinetic Studies.

A rapid, selective, and sensitive liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the quantitation of MO-OH-Nap tropolone (MO-OH-Nap) in mouse plasma. MO-OH-Nap is an α-substituted tropolone with anti-proliferative properties in various cancer cell lines. Detection and separation of analytes was achieved on an ACE Excel C18 (1.

Feeding intolerance after pediatric cardiac surgery is associated with dysbiosis, barrier dysfunction, and reduced short-chain fatty acids.

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect, occurring in roughly 40,000 U.S. births annually.

Coumarin-Based Aldo-Keto Reductase Family 1C (AKR1C) 2 and 3 Inhibitors.

A series of 7-substituted coumarin derivatives have been characterized as pan-aldo-keto reductase family 1C (AKR1C) inhibitors. The AKR1C family of enzymes are overexpressed in numerous cancers where they are involved in drug resistance development. 7-hydroxy coumarin ethyl esters and their corresponding amides have high potency for AKR1C3 and AKR1C2 inhibition.
