Introduction: HS-10234, a novel prodrug of tenofovir (TFV), functions by inhibiting nucleotide reverse transcriptase against retroviral infections including hepatitis B virus and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). As it is a possible substitute for TFV co-administration with emtricitabine, determining the drug-drug interactions (DDI) between HS-10234 and emtricitabine therapy will be helpful for researchers to design and conduct future phase II/III studies and merits careful examination in the era of evolving new combination antiretroviral therapy regimens.
Methods: We conducted an open-label, two-sequence, two-period, self-controlled phase I trial that enrolled 36 healthy volunteers randomized into two groups (group 1 and group 2).
Kawasaki disease (KD)), also known as mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome (MCLS), is an autoimmune and systemic vasculitis syndrome. Its etiology and pathogenesis are still unclear. microRNAs (miRNA), a novel class of small non-coding RNAs, regulate the expression of multiple protein-encoding genes at the post-transcriptional level.

Cyclophilin A (CypA), also known as , has been identified to play a vital role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular or inflammatory diseases. However, no studies have examined the relationship between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the peptidylprolyl isomerase A () and the development of KD and KD with or without coronary artery lesions (CALs).

HS due to ankyrin 1 (ANK1) mutations is the most common type. We explored an ANK1 mutation from an HS patient and reviewed the literature.

Wurtzite semiconductor CuInS2 [CIS] has been reported in recent years. As a kind of metastable structure, it is a great challenge to synthesize pure wurtzite CIS at low temperature. In this paper, via a simple and quick solution route, we synthesize both wurtzite- and chalcopyrite-structure CIS.
