Levamlodipine, the levorotatory form of amlodipine racemate, has a blood pressure-lowering effect that is twice that of the racemate. The study aims to establish a foundation for the clinical application of the test drug by conducting a phase I clinical bioequivalence trial, comparing its bioequivalence and safety with the reference drug in healthy Chinese subjects. Recruiting 26 healthy subjects for separate bioequivalence trials in both fasting and fed conditions.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a multidrug-resistant pathogen that poses a significant risk to global health today. In S. aureus, α-hemolysin is an important virulence factor as it contributes to the capacity of the bacteria to infect the host.

Here, we report an efficient antiviral strategy with self-assembled tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNAs) delivering small interfering RNA (t-siRNA) to silence classical swine fever virus (CSFV) gene in porcine host cells. In this study, two previously reported siRNAs, C3 and C6, specifically targeting the CSFV genome were selected and modified on tFNAs, respectively, and termed t-C3 and t-C6.

Aim: To evaluate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of esomeprazole magnesium (Eso) enteric- coated capsule in the healthy subjects in China and the bioequivalence of the two formulations.
Methods: This study was conducted in the Phase I Clinical Trial Unit of the Affiliated Hospital of Changchun University of Chinese Medicine.

Background: Common cold is one of the most frequently occurring illnesses in primary healthcare services and represents considerable disease burden. Common cold of Qi-deficiency syndrome (CCQDS) is an important but less addressed traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) pattern. We designed a protocol to explore the efficacy, safety, and optimal dose of Shen Guo Lao Nian Granule (SGLNG) for treating CCQDS.

Estrogen can increase the incidence of breast carcinoma and endometrial cancer in post-menopausal women, so it is not suitable for clinical treatment of Alzheimer's disease. There is recent evidence that the estrogen receptor can exert its neuroprotective effects without estrogen dependence.
