Age-related changes in mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme Trx2 and TXNIP-Trx2-ASK1 signal pathways in the auditory cortex of a mimetic aging rat model: changes to Trx2 in the auditory cortex.

Age-associated degeneration in the central auditory system, which is defined as central presbycusis, can impair sound localization and speech perception. Research has shown that oxidative stress plays a central role in the pathological process of central presbycusis. Thioredoxin 2 (Trx2), one member of thioredoxin family, plays a key role in regulating the homeostasis of cellular reactive oxygen species and anti-apoptosis.

Bioavailability comparison of a new form of vilazodone XVII to IV in beagles using liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry.

Vilazodone hydrochloride (CAS 163521-12-8) is polymorphic and has 15 crystal forms, referred to as I-XI and XIII-XVI. In the study, we prepared and performed structural identification of a new crystal form named XVII. To investigate this in vivo, a rapid and sensitive method based on liquid-liquid extraction, followed by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) was developed and validated for the determination of vilazodone hydrochloride in dog plasma.
