Background: Cervical and breast cancers are among the top 4 leading causes of cancer-related mortality in women. This study aimed to examine age-specific temporal trends in mortality for cervical and breast cancers in urban and rural areas of China from 2009 to 2021.

Methods: Age-specific mortality data for cervical and breast cancers among Chinese women aged 20-84 years were obtained from China's National Disease Surveillance Points system spanning the years 2009 to 2021.

Aims: Endothelial dysfunction plays a pivotal role in atherosclerosis, but the detailed mechanism remains incomplete understood. Nogo-B is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-localized protein mediating ER-mitochondrial morphology. We previously showed endothelial Nogo-B as a key regulator of endothelial function in the setting of hypertension.

Article Synopsis
  • S1P (sphingosine-1-phosphate) is identified to induce vasodilation in mouse mesenteric arteries through activation of calcium-activated potassium channels (K2.3 and K3.1), with effects dependent on intracellular calcium levels.
  • The study reveals that chronic S1P stimulation enhances the expression of K2.3 and K3.1 channels in endothelial cells, regulated by the S1P receptor (S1PR1) and downstream Ca signaling pathways.
  • Deletion of S1PR1 leads to reduced K2.3 and K3.1 expression and increased hypertension in a mouse model, highlighting the importance of endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization in managing vascular responses and blood

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) has been shown to possess pro-hypertrophic properties in the heart, but the detailed molecular mechanism that underlies the pathological process is rarely explored. In the present study, we aim to explore the role of S1P-mediated intracellular Ca signaling, with a focus on sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)-mitochondria communication, in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) displayed significantly hypertrophic growth after treatment with 1 μmol/L S1P for 48 h, as indicated by the cell surface area or mRNA expressions of hypertrophic marker genes (ANP, BNP and β-MHC).

Objective: To investigate the pharmacokinetics of Ambroxol and Clenbuterol Tablets in Chinese healthy volunteers after a single or multiple dosages oral administration.

Methods: A total of 9 healthy adult subjects were given Ambroxol and Clenbuterol Tablets in a single dosage or multiple dosages respectively. LC/MS/MS were used for the determination of Ambroxol and Clenbuterol of in plasma.
