[Corrigendum) RNA interference‑mediated FANCF silencing sensitizes OVCAR3 ovarian cancer cells to adriamycin through increased adriamycin‑induced apoptosis dependent on JNK activation.

After the publication of the article, an interested reader drew to the authors' attention that there appeared to be a pair of overlapping data panels in Fig. 4C on p. 1726 [specifically, the 'Untransfected' and 'Control shRNA' data panels for the ADM (24 h) experiments].

Safety and pharmacokinetic interaction between fotagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, and metformin in healthy subjects.

Background: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors have significant clinical efficacy for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The combination of fotagliptin (FOT) with metformin (MET) is a promising therapeutic approach in MET-resistant patients. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) interaction between FOT and MET in healthy subjects after multiple-dose administration.

Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of a Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitor: A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Daily Administration of Fotagliptin Benzoate for 14 Days for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

This study investigated the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of fotagliptin benzoate (fotagliptin), a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study, 10 and 4 patients with T2DM were randomized and received, respectively, once-daily oral fotagliptin (24 mg) or placebo, for 14 days. The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics were assessed throughout the study, including monitoring DPP-4, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), glycosylated hemoglobin, and fasting blood glucose.

RNA interference-mediated FANCF silencing sensitizes OVCAR3 ovarian cancer cells to adriamycin through increased adriamycin-induced apoptosis dependent on JNK activation.

In the present study, we downregulated FANCF expression by small interfering RNA (siRNA) in OVCAR ovarian cancer cells to address the effects of decreased FANCF expression on the function of the Fanconi anemia (FA)/breast cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA) pathway. Furthermore, we investigated whether this method increases the sensitivity of OVCAR3 cells to adriamycin (ADM) and the possible mechanism(s). We found that silencing of FANCF inactivated the FA/BRCA pathway by decreasing the monoubiquitination and focus formation of FANCD2 and reduced the function of the FA/BRCA pathway, resulting in the inhibition of cell proliferation, increased cell apoptosis and DNA damage in OVCAR3 cells.

[Effect of troxerutin and cerebroproptein hydrolysate injection on platelet aggregation and thrombosis].

This study was purposed to explore the effect of troxerotin and cerebroproptein hydrolysate injection (TCHI) on platelet aggregation in vitro and thrombosis in vivo. The inhibitory rate of TCHI at different concentrations on platelet aggregation was determined by platelet aggregometer. The relationship between dose and effect was established.
