Separation and identification of degradation impurities of esomeprazole sodium.

Drug impurities are important factors that affect drug safety and efficacy. The aim of this study is to separate and confirm the structure of two degradation impurities of esomeprazole sodium, designated X and Y. The impurities X and Y were successfully isolated using preparative HPLC by developing separation methods with the help of ACD/Labs AutoChrom software.

LncRNA H19 induces immune dysregulation of BMMSCs, at least partly, by inhibiting IL-2 production.

Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a representative systemic autoimmune disease. LncRNA H19 has been identified to participate in various biological processes in human diseases. However, the role of H19 in SLE remains unclear.

Tissue distribution study of mangiferin after intragastric administration of mangiferin monomer, Rhizoma Anemarrhenae, and Rhizoma Anemarrhenae-Phellodendron decoctions in normal or type 2 diabetic rats by LC-MS/MS.

A simple, accurate, and reliable liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the determination of mangiferin in rat plasma and tissue homogenates using rutin as an internal standard (IS). Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Shiseido CAPCELL PAK C column (150 × 2.0 mm, 5 μm) using a gradient elution of 1% acetic acid in water and methanol at a flow rate of 300 μL·min.
