Trans-1-chloro,3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HCFO-1233zd(E)) is being developed as a foam blowing agent, refrigerant and solvent because it has a very low global warming potential (<10), as contrasted to the hydrofluorocarbons (>500). The toxicology profile is described. The acute 4-hour 50% lethal concentration value in rats receiving HCFO-1233zd(E) was 120 000 ppm.

Background: Minimal change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS) is the most frequent form of nephrotic syndrome in childhood. In the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) of adult patients with MCNS, a reduced expression of a specific heparan sulphate (HS) domain has been reported. In children with MCNS, urinary activity of the HS-degrading enzyme heparanase was increased.

Background: Diabetic nephropathy poses an increasing health problem in the Western world, and research to new leads for diagnosis and therapy therefore is warranted. In this respect, heparan sulfates (HSs) offer new possibilities because crude mixtures of these polysaccharides are capable of ameliorating proteinuria. The aim of this study is to immuno(histo)chemically profile HSs from microalbuminuric kidneys from patients with type 1 diabetes and identify specific structural HS alterations associated with early diabetic nephropathy.
