A Review of Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor Delivery Strategies and Applications in Regenerative Medicine.

Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) is a significant member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. The bFGF has a three-dimensional structure comprising 12 reverse parallel β-folds. This structure facilitates tissue wound repair, angiogenesis, bone formation, cartilage repair, and nerve regeneration.

Evaluation of the Effects of Apatinib on the Pharmacokinetics of Venlafaxine and O-desmethylvenlafaxine in SD Male Rats by UPLC-MS/MS.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of apatinib on the pharmacokinetics of venlafaxine and O-desmethylvenlafaxine in SD rats and the inhibitory effects of apatinib on venlafaxine in rat and human liver microsomes. Twenty-one SD male rats were randomly divided into three groups (n = 7): group A (multiple dose of 40 mg/kg apatinib for 7 days), group B (single dose of 40 mg/kg apatinib) and group C (the control group). All samples were measured by UPLC-MS/MS.
