Introduction: This single-center, observational cohort study aimed to investigate the risk factors associated with linezolid-induced hematological toxicity by analyzing the linezolid trough concentration (Cmin) obtained from patients undergoing treatment between January 2020 and December 2021.

Methodology: A total of 111 eligible individuals were included in the study, of which 47 were diagnosed with linezolid-induced thrombocytopenia and 18 were diagnosed with linezolid-induced hemoglobin decrease.

Results: Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that creatinine clearance level (Ccr) < 50 mL/min/1.

Background And Purpose: Aβ1-42-induced neurotoxicity has been considered as a possible mechanism to aggravate the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, we aim to determine the protective effect of DMDD on the apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells induced by Aβ1-42 and elucidate potential mechanism of DMDD's protective function in apoptosis.

Experimental Approach: CCK-8, AnnexinV-FITC/PI flow cytometry, and transmission electron microscopy analysis were used to determine the protection of DMDD on Aβ1-42-evoked apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells.

Background: Yulangsan flavone (YLSF) was extracted from the root of Millettia pulchra Kurz var-laxior (Dunn) Z. Wei, which has been widely used for liver disease treatment in the Guangxi province of China.

Hypothesis/purpose: The study was conducted to demonstrate the hepatoprotective effects of YLSF against CCl-induced hepatic fibrosis in rats, meanwhile revealing the potential mechanism.

Article Synopsis
  • Recent studies suggest that Averrhoa carambola L. juice (EACJ) can lower blood glucose levels in humans, but its specific mechanisms remain unclear.
  • In an experiment with diabetic mice induced by streptozotocin (STZ), EACJ was administered at various doses, leading to significant reductions in fasting blood glucose, cholesterol, and kidney injury markers.
  • EACJ treatment also improved kidney damage and decreased factors associated with diabetes progression, indicating its potential as a therapeutic option for hyperglycemia and diabetic nephropathy.

Background/aims: Studies have demonstrated that 2-dodecyl-6-methoxycyclohexa-2, 5-diene-1, 4-dione (DMDD), isolated from the roots of Averrhoa carambola L., has significant therapeutic potential for the treatment of diabetes. However, the protective effect of DMDD against pancreatic beta cell dysfunction has never been reported.
