A Rapid, Sensitive, and High-throughput Method for the Simultaneous Determination of Antihypertensive Drug Combinations in Dog Plasma by UHPLC-MS/MS: The Assessment of Predicable Bioequivalence of Dissolution Condition.

Background: Essential hypertension is a common clinical disease and a risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine, and hydrochlorothiazide are commonly used antihypertensive drugs. The aim of this study was to establish a robust UPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine, and hydrochlorothiazide in dog plasma.

An atlas of spider development at single-cell resolution provides new insights into arthropod embryogenesis.

Spiders are a diverse order of chelicerates that diverged from other arthropods over 500 million years ago. Research on spider embryogenesis, particularly studies using the common house spider Parasteatoda tepidariorum, has made important contributions to understanding the evolution of animal development, including axis formation, segmentation, and patterning. However, we lack knowledge about the cells that build spider embryos, their gene expression profiles and fate.

FGF signalling is involved in cumulus migration in the common house spider Parasteatoda tepidariorum.

Cell migration is a fundamental component during the development of most multicellular organisms. In the early spider embryo, the collective migration of signalling cells, known as the cumulus, is required to set the dorsoventral body axis. Here, we show that FGF signalling plays an important role during cumulus migration in the spider Parasteatoda tepidariorum.

Simultaneous and trace level quantification of two potential genotoxic impurities in valsartan drug substance using UPLC-MS/MS.

A sensitive and selective Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for the identification and quantification of two potential genotoxic impurities (PGIs) - viz. methyl N-((2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)methyl)-N-nitroso-L-valinate (PGI-1) and N-nitroso Valsartan (PGI-2) - in the angiotensin II receptor blocker valsartan. Among these impurities, PGI-1 is a distinctive compound which has never been reported.

Qualitative and quantitative assessment of related substances in the Compound Ketoconazole and Clobetasol Propionate Cream by HPLC-TOF-MS and HPLC.

Related substances in pharmaceutical formulations are associated with their safety, efficacy and stability. However, there is no overall study already published on the assessment of related substances in the Compound Ketoconazole and Clobetasol Propionate Cream. In this work, a reliable HPLC-TOF-MS qualitative method was developed for the analysis of related substances in this preparation with a quick and easy extraction procedure.

Protective effects of oleanolic acid on oxidative stress and the expression of cytokines and collagen by the AKT/NF‑κB pathway in silicotic rats.

Oleanolic acid (OA), a natural pentacyclic triterpenoid, has been reported to have several benefits and medicinal properties. However, its protective effects against silica‑induced lung injury and fibrosis remain to be elucidated. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of OA on oxidative stress, and the expression of cytokines and collagen in silicotic rats.
