A novel ultra-performance liquid chromatography detection method development and validation for paclitaxel and its major metabolite in human plasma.

Background: Paclitaxel is a promising anticancer drug for patients with ovarian, breast, lung, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, prostate, and head-and-neck cancers. Paclitaxel follows nonlinear pharmacokinetics. The major metabolite of paclitaxel is 6-alpha-hydroxy paclitaxel, mediated by CYP2C8, while metabolism to two of its minor metabolites, 3'-p-hydroxypaclitaxel and 6a, 3'- p-dihydroxypaclitaxel, is catalyzed by CYP3A4.

Impact of Dapagliflozin Adjunctive Therapy on the Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease Stages 2-5: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

This meta-analysis investigated efficacy of dapagliflozin as adjunctive therapy for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 2-5. A systematic search was conducted of selected databases for randomised controlled trials that reported the mean change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) from baseline. Out of 1,682 identified studies, 9 trials comprising 13,057 patients were included.

Is Sphingosine Kinase 1 Associated with Hematological Malignancy? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) is a lipid enzyme whose role in the etiology of cancer has been well explored. Here, a systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate the association of SphK1 expression with hematological malignancy.

Materials And Methods: Relevant studies were identified through electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and OVID) and evaluated based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria.

S1P Signaling Genes as Prominent Drivers of BCR-ABL1-Independent Imatinib Resistance and Six Herbal Compounds as Potential Drugs for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia.

Imatinib (IM), a breakthrough in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) treatment, is accompanied by discontinuation challenges owing to drug intolerance. Although mutation is a key cause of CML resistance, understanding mechanisms independent of is also important. This study investigated the sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) signaling-associated genes ( and ) and their role in BCR-ABL1-independent resistant CML, an area currently lacking investigation.

A Multi-epitope Subunit Vaccine Identification and Development Against Scrub Typhus (Orientia tsutsugamushi) Using Immunoinformatics Approaches.

Background The pathogen , which causes scrub typhus, is rapidly spreading throughout the tropics. As a measure to improve public health, the development of a vaccine for human use is essential. Scrub typhus is listed as one of the underdiagnosed and underreported febrile infections.
