Clinical drug interactions between linezolid and other antibiotics: For adverse drug event monitoring.

Detailed data on safety associated with drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between Linezolid (LZD) and other antibiotics are limited. The aim of this study was to investigate the safety signals related to these DDIs and to provide a reference for clinically related adverse drug event monitoring. Adverse event (AE) information from 1 January 2004 to 16 June 2022 of the target antibiotics including LZD using alone or in combination with LZD was extracted from the OpenVigil FDA data platform for safety signal analysis.

Protective effect of the total alkaloid extract from Bulbus on cigarette smoke-induced Beas-2B cell injury model and transcriptomic analysis.

PH-sensitive BSA-modified resveratrol micelles targeting macrophages alleviate symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease, leading to severe inflammatory infiltration and joint damage, accompanied by a decrease in pH of joint microenvironment. Macrophages play an important role in the pathogenesis of RA, with high expression of bovine serum albumin (BSA) receptors on the surface of macrophages. Resveratrol (Res) has strong anti-inflammatory effects, but its application is limited due to its poor water solubility and low bioavailability.

Total alkaloids of bulbus of alleviate bleomycin-induced inflammation and pulmonary fibrosis in rats by inhibiting TGF-β and NF-κB signaling pathway.

Background: Bulbus of is a medicinal and edible plant that has the functions of clearing away heat and moisturizing the lungs, resolving phlegm, and relieving coughs. Its ethanol extract has been proven to have a therapeutic effect on lung diseases. Pulmonary fibrosis is a respiratory disease that forms scars in lung tissue, leading to severe respiratory problems.

'Pterocephalodes hookeri-Onosma hookeri' decoction protects against LPS-induced pulmonary inflammation via inhibiting TLR4/ NF-κB signaling pathway.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: As the second-largest traditional medical system in China, Tibetan medicine has a long history and abundant resources. To promote the development of the Tibetan medicine industry, it is essential to study the pharmacological activities of Tibetan medicine based on its traditional usage methods.

Aim Of The Study: Pneumonia has been a worldwide health problem with high morbidity and mortality rates, especially in the context of the COVID-19 epidemic.

The extraction and anti-inflammatory screening of Y. L. Liu.

"Zicao" has a long medicinal history and has a variety of pharmacological activities. As the main resource of "zicao" in Tibet, Y. L.

A distinction between Fritillaria Cirrhosa Bulbus and Fritillaria Pallidiflora Bulbus via LC-MS/MS in conjunction with principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis.

Fritillaria Cirrhosa Bulbus (known as chuanbeimu in Chinese, FCB) is one of the most used Chinese medicines for lung disease. However, a variety of substitutes have entered the market, with Fritillaria Pallidiflora Bulbus (FPB) being the most common. Due to their similarity in appearance, morphology, and chemical composition but a large price difference, the FCB has frequently been adulterated with the FPB, posing a serious challenge to the distinction and quality of the FCB.

Research on 90-day subchronic toxicities of the ethanol extract from the cultivated Fritillaria Cirrhosa bulbs by oral administration in Sprague-Dawley rats.

Fritillaria Cirrhosa bulbus (BFC) is a Chinese herbal medicine. In the present study, subchronic toxicities of the ethanol extract from cultivated Fritillaria Cirrhosa bulbus (ECBFC) were performed by oral daily administration in Sprague-Dawley rats. The subchronic toxicity test of ECBFC was conducted at doses of 0.

Evaluation of the acute toxicity and 28-days subacute toxicity of the alcoholic extract from .

is a well-known traditional medicine in Tibet Autonomous Region, which has benefits, such as anti-hypoxia, neurotrophic action on nerves, easing coughs and relieving asthma, strengthening the body and prolonging life. However, few research have focused on its negative effects, possibly jeopardizing its safety. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the acute and subacute toxicity of an alcoholic extract from (GLA) in vivo.

Novel bright-emission small-molecule NIR-II fluorophores for tumor imaging and image-guided surgery.

Though high brightness and biocompatible small NIR-II dyes are highly desirable in clinical or translational cancer research, their fluorescent cores are relatively limited and their synthetic processes are somewhat complicated. Herein, we have explored the design and synthesis of novel NIR-II fluorescent materials () without tedious chromatographic isolation with improved fluorescence performance (QY ≈ 2%) by introducing 2-amino 9,9-dialkyl-substituted fluorene as a donor into the backbone. Several types of water-soluble and biocompatible NIR-II probes: , , and were constructed different chemical strategies based on , and then their potential to be used in tumor imaging and image-guided surgery in the NIR-II region was explored.

Pyrazolopyrimidines as Potent Stimulators for Transient Receptor Potential Canonical 3/6/7 Channels.

Transient receptor potential canonical 3/6/7 (TRPC3/6/7) are highly homologous receptor-operated nonselective cation channels. Despite their physiological significance, very few selective and potent agonists are available for functional examination of these channels. Using a cell-based high throughput screening approach, a lead compound with the pyrazolopyrimidine skeleton was identified as a TRPC6 agonist.
