Interaction between ischemia-reperfusion injury and intestinal microecology in organ transplantation and its therapeutic prospects.

Organ transplantation is a vital intervention for end-stage organ failure; however, ischemia-reperfusion injury is a complication of transplantation, affecting the prognosis and survival of transplant recipients. As a complex ecosystem, recent research has highlighted the role of the intestinal microecology in transplantation, revealing its significant interplay with ischemia-reperfusion injury. This review explores the interaction between ischemia-reperfusion injury and intestinal microecology, with a special focus on how ischemia-reperfusion injury affects intestinal microecology and how these microecological changes contribute to complications after organ transplantation, such as infection and rejection.

Lipid nanoparticle encapsulated oleic acid induced lipotoxicity to hepatocytes via ROS overload and the DDIT3/BCL2/BAX/Caspases signaling in vitro and in vivo.

Background: To date, Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common liver disease associated with clinical complications. Dietary fatty acids have been suggested to be involved in preventing or reversing the accumulation of hepatic fat. However, contradicting roles of monounsaturated fatty acids to the liver have been implicated in various human and murine models, mainly due to the insolubility nature of fatty acids.

Simultaneous measurement of COVID-19 treatment drugs (nirmatrelvir and ritonavir) in rat plasma by UPLC-MS/MS and its application to a pharmacokinetic study.

PAXLOVID™ (Co-packaging of Nirmatrelvir with Ritonavir) has been approved for the treatment of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).
