Cyclosporin A (CSA) is a potent immunosuppressive agent in pharmacologic studies. However, there is evidence for side effects, specifically regarding vascular dysfunction. Its mode of action inducing endothelial cell toxicity is partially unclear, and a connection with an adverse outcome pathway (AOP) is not established yet.

In a group randomized trial of 45 elementary schools, a whole-child health and wellness curriculum introduced as a regular part of the educational programming was compared to education as usual over 2 years with a 2-year follow-up. The curriculum focused on integrating multiple SEL skills-mindfulness, compassion, and physical awareness-with the intent to advantage developmental patterns for these skills, academic engagement, personal well-being, and student behavior. The program design and trial implementation were launched with end-use delivery and long-term sustainability as integral considerations.

Teaching is a demanding profession with teachers of very young children reporting high rates of stress and exhaustion. We tested the effects of a relationship-focused professional development intervention designed to enhance teachers' use of mindfulness-based strategies to support coping on trajectories of teachers' stress, exhaustion (emotional, physical, and mental), and coping. Infant and toddler teachers ( = 81) from Early Head Start (EHS) or EHS childcare partnerships (CCP) were randomized to the intervention or usual care control condition.

The polarised expression of specific transporters in proximal tubular epithelial cells is important for the renal clearance of many endogenous and exogenous compounds. Thus, ideally, the in vitro tools utilised for predictions would have a similar expression of apical and basolateral xenobiotic transporters as in vivo. Here, we assessed the functionality of organic cation and anion transporters in proximal tubular-like cells (PTL) differentiated from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), primary human proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTEC), and telomerase-immortalised human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (RPTEC/TERT1).
