Sorbent-Based Sampling With Two-Stage Trapping/Desorption Coupled to Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry for Terpenoids Profiling in Cannabis.

Cannabis inflorescences represent an important source of many high-value bioactive specialized metabolites, among which the family of terpenes or terpenoids that are the largest classes of natural products known. Besides their biological activities either alone or synergistic with other terpenoids and/or cannabinoids, they are responsible for their distinctive flavour. In this study, we exploited the separation power and identification capabilities of comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC×GC-MS) for the profiling of terpenes and terpenoids in cannabis inflorescences.

Associating Disrupted Intrinsic Functional Networks with Cognitive and Socio-Affective Skills Following Cerebellar Stroke.

Stroke patients often experience post-stroke emotional impairments, yet the underlying pathophysiology remains unclear. At the brain level, dysregulation of socio-affective skills should be considered through alterations in brain networks instead of isolated regions. Investigating network alterations may be crucial in explaining emotional or cognitive deficits.

Sevuparin strongly reduces hepcidin expression in cells, mice, and healthy human volunteers.

Hepcidin is an essential regulator of systemic iron availability mediating both iron uptake from the diet and its release from body stores. Abnormally high hepcidin levels resulting from inflammation in chronic diseases cause iron restriction with the onset of anemia. Restoring physiological levels of hepcidin could contribute to ameliorating anemia in these patients.
