Statin-Associated Liver Dysfunction and Muscle Injury: epidemiology, Mechanisms, and Management Strategies.

Surveillance of drug safety is an important aspect in the routine medical care. Adverse events caused by real-world drug utilization has become one of the leading causes of death and an urgent issue in the field of toxicology. Cardiovascular disease is now the leading cause of fatal diseases in most countries, especially in the elderly population who often suffer from multiple diseases and need long-term multidrug therapy.

ABHD7-mediated depalmitoylation of lamin A promotes myoblast differentiation.

LMNA gene mutation can cause muscular dystrophy, and post-translational modification plays a critical role in regulating its function. Here, we identify that lamin A is palmitoylated at cysteine 522, 588, and 591 residues, which are reversely catalyzed by palmitoyltransferase zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 5 (ZDHHC5) and depalmitoylase α/β hydrolase domain 7 (ABHD7). Furthermore, the metabolite lactate promotes palmitoylation of lamin A by inhibiting the interaction between it and ABHD7.

Escitalopram-induced sinus bradycardia in coronary heart disease combined with depression: a case report and review of literature.

For patients with cardiovascular disease, using the antidepressant escitalopram may lead to unexpected adverse events. Here, a rare repeated sinus bradycardia event due to escitalopram is first reported. In an 82-year-old female patient with cardiac dysfunction using digoxin, tachycardia (average heart rate of 93 beats/min) was demonstrated by electrocardiogram (ECG).

Function of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 and its role in central nervous system diseases: An update on clinical evidence.

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) has attracted lots of attention in preventing the clearance of plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). PCSK9 inhibitors are developed to primarily reduce the cardiovascular risk by lowering LDL-C level. Recently, a number of pleiotropic extrahepatic functions of PCSK9 beyond the regulation of cholesterol metabolism, particularly its effects on central nervous system (CNS) diseases have been increasingly identified.

Influence of magnetic field on the seismometer in vibration correction for atom gravimeters.

Vibration correction provides a simple and flexible method of suppressing ambient vibration noise in transportable atom gravimeters. However, in the seismometers used for vibration correction, a spurious output may be induced by the magnetic field of the magnetic-optical trap, introducing errors to the gravity measurements. This paper evaluates the influence of the magnetic field on the seismometer and the corresponding errors in the gravity measurements.

Characterizing atom clouds using a charge-coupled device for atom-interferometry-based G measurements.

Precise information of positions and sizes of atom clouds is required for atom-interferometry-based G measurements. In this work, characterizing atom clouds using a charge-coupled device (CCD) is presented. The parameters of atom clouds are extracted from fluorescence images captured by the CCD.

Measuring the effective height for atom gravimeters by applying a frequency jump to Raman lasers.

As the existence of the gravity gradient, the output of gravimeters is actually the gravitational acceleration at the reference instrumental height. Precise knowledge of the reference height is indispensable in the utilization of gravity measurements, especially for absolute gravimeters. Here, we present an interferometric method to measure the distance between the atomic cloud and a reflecting mirror directly, which consequently determines the reference height of our atom gravimeter.

A dual-magneto-optical-trap atom gravity gradiometer for determining the Newtonian gravitational constant.

As part of a program to determine the gravitational constant G using multiple independent methods in the same laboratory, an atom gravity gradiometer is being developed. The gradiometer is designed with two magneto-optical traps to ensure both the fast simultaneous launch of two atomic clouds and an optimized configuration of source masses. Here, the design of the G measurement by atom interferometry is detailed, and the experimental setup of the atom gravity gradiometer is reported.

[Abundance Change of Antibiotic Resistance Genes During PDWW Recycling and Correlations with Environmental Factors].

Research on the distribution of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in urban sewage treatment systems is extensive, but there is still insufficient research on their abundance in industrial wastewater recycling systems. In this study, a printing and dyeing wastewater (PDWW) recycling system was constructed, and 16S rDNA and high-throughput sequencing technology was used to analyze the microbial communities and ARG abundance during the treatment process. A total of 52 ARGs in nine categories were detected, of which the relative abundance of -lactam resistance genes was the highest.

Omipalisib Inhibits Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Growth Through Inactivation of Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase (PI3K)/AKT/Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) and ERK Signaling.

BACKGROUND Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a life-threatening digestive tract malignancy with no known curative treatment. This study aimed to investigate the antineoplastic effects of omipalisib and its underlying molecular mechanisms in ESCC using a high throughput screen. MATERIAL AND METHODS MTT assay and clone formation were used to determine cell viability and proliferation.

Test of the Universality of Free Fall with Atoms in Different Spin Orientations.

We report a test of the universality of free fall by comparing the gravity acceleration of the ^{87}Rb atoms in m_{F}=+1 versus those in m_{F}=-1, of which the corresponding spin orientations are opposite. A Mach-Zehnder-type atom interferometer is exploited to alternately measure the free fall acceleration of the atoms in these two magnetic sublevels, and the resultant Eötvös ratio is η_{S}=(0.2±1.

Turn-on fluorescence and unprecedented encapsulation of large aromatic molecules within a manganese(II)-triazole metal-organic confined space.

For the purpose of investigating the coordination behavior of sterically congested alkenes and exploring the possibility of cofacial complexation in the polycyclic aromatic system for the formation of extended polymeric networks, a new tetradentate ligand, 1,1,2,2-tetrakis[4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl]ethylene (TTPE), has been designed and synthesized. By using TTPE as a building block with regard to the self-assembly with MnCl2 ⋅4 H2 O, a novel two-dimensional coordination framework {[Mn(TTPE)Cl2 ]⋅4 CHCl3 }n (1) can be isolated. Anion-exchange and organic-group-functionalized aromatic guest TTPE-loaded host-guest complex experimental results indicate that coordinated Cl(-) anions in the 2D framework of 1 can be completely replaced with dissociative ClO4 (-) groups in an irreversible single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation fashion, as evidenced by the anion-exchange products of {[Mn(TTPE)(H2 O)2 ](ClO4 )2 ⋅0.

Anion-exchange and anthracene-encapsulation within copper(II) and manganese(II)-triazole metal-organic confined space in a single crystal-to-single crystal transformation fashion.

A new multidentate ligand 1-(9-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)anthracen-10-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole (tatrz) was designed and synthesized. Using tatrz as a building block, three novel coordination frameworks, namely, {[Cu(tatrz)2(NO3)2]·(CH3OH)·4H2O}n (1), {[Cu(tatrz)2(H2O)2](BF4)2}n (2), and [Mn(tatrz)2(SCN)2(CH3OH)]·2H2O (3) can be isolated. Anion-exchange experiment indicates that NO3(-) anions in the two-dimensional (2D) copper framework of 1 can be completely exchanged by ClO4(-) in an irreversible single crystal-to-single crystal (SC-SC) transformation fashion, as evidenced by the anion-exchange products of {[Cu(tatrz)2(H2O)2](ClO4)2·4CH3OH} (1a).
