We present a method that permits the simultaneous analysis of carbamazepine (CBZ) and its major biotransformation products, carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide (CBZ-E) and carbamazepine-10,11-dihydroxide (CBZ-diOH), in plasma samples. The method consists of plasma extraction in alkaline medium with NaCl added using chloroform-ethyl acetate (1:1, v/v) and later purification with n-hexane. The samples were submitted to reversed-phase chromatography (RP-18) using acetonitrile-water (3:7, v/v) as the mobile phase and detection at 220 nm. Recoveries of 62.0, 99.9, and 105.4% were obtained for CBZ-diOH, CBZ-E, and CBZ, respectively, with sensitivities of 0.32 micrograms/mL for CBZ-E and CBZ-dOH and of 0.64 micrograms/mL for CBZ. The method proved to be specific, thus permitting measurements in situations of drug combinations.

Aging is accompanied by a decline in neovascularization potential and increased susceptibility to ischemic injury. Here, we confirm the age-related impaired neovascularization following ischemic leg injury and impaired angiogenesis. The age-related deficits in angiogenesis arose primarily from diminished EC proliferation capacity, but not migration or VEGF sensitivity.

Purpose: Mitoxantrone (MTX) is largely restricted in clinical usage due to its significant cardiotoxicity. Multiple studies have shown that an imbalance in the gut-heart axis plays an important role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We aim to explore the possible correlations between gut microbiota (GM) compositions and cardiometabolic (CM) disorder in MTX-triggered cardiotoxicity mice.

Sustained production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and an imbalance in the antioxidant system have been implicated in the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), especially when combined with diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and other metabolic disorders. Among them, NADPH oxidases (NOX), including NOX1-5, are major sources of ROS that mediate redox signaling in both physiological and pathological processes, including fibrosis, hypertrophy, and remodeling. Recent studies have demonstrated that mitochondria produce more proteins and energy in response to adverse stress, corresponding with an increase in superoxide radical anions.

Improving mammary gland epithelial cells proliferation through nutrition is an important approach for enhancing sow milk production and piglet growth. An intermediate metabolite of valine, 3-hydroxyisobutyrate (3-HIB), regulates cellular lipid metabolism. In the present study, we investigated the effects of 3-HIB on porcine mammary gland epithelial cells proliferation and lipid metabolism.
