Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells are used for fermentation of high value proteins in the pharmaceutical- and biotechnology industry. During the fermentation process the cells are grown under specific conditions in a defined media. The CHO cells produce extra cellular proteins. Separation and purification of these proteins result in the final product of high value. The production steps utilized in any bio-pharmaceutical process must deliver the target protein with high purity and yield. The first step in the production process is the separation of cells from the rest of the fermentation broth. Currently, stacked depth filters are used in this separation. The disadvantages with this method are:- 1) low product yield (high hold-up/wetting volume) and 2) the messy "clean-up" that is inherent with stacked filters. One of the main process requirements is that the CHO cell removal be accomplished with low cell mortality. This eases the subsequent process steps to purify the target protein with high yields free of DNA and other intracellular proteins. Additionally, the CHO cells can be reused.

Oxidative stress induced by excess ethanol is an important factor in the progression of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). In recent years, inhibiting Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1) to activate the antioxidant regulator Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) has been considered an effective strategy for treating oxidative stress-related diseases, but its application in ALD remains insufficiently explored. This study aims to discover high-affinity inhibitors targeting the KEAP1 receptor.

Introduction: Cold static storage (CSS) and normothermic ex-situ preservation are the most widely used donor heart preservation techniques worldwide. The current study compares both CSS and normothermic ex-situ preservation methods in terms of graft performance, morphologic changes, and acute immune response in an experimental model.
Method And Materials: Twenty rats underwent heterotopic abdominal heart transplantation after 2 h of CSS (group 1; n = 10) or normothermic ex-situ perfusion (group 2; n = 10).

To evaluate the drug release, cytocompatibility with periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs), and therapeutic efficacy of GelMA hydrogel loaded with resolvin D1 (RvD1) in treating rat periodontal inflammation and alveolar bone damage. An RvD1 complexed with GelMA was prepared, and its release kinetics and compatibility with PDLCs were assessed. Rats with induced periodontitis were treated weekly with topical applications of vehicle, GelMA, RvD1, or RvD1 complexed with GelMA for four weeks.

: Pinocembrin is a promising drug candidate for treating ischemic stroke. The interaction of pinocembrin with drug transporters and drug-metabolizing enzymes is not fully revealed. The present study aims to evaluate the interaction potential of pinocembrin with cytochrome P450 (CYP450: CYP2B6, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19) and drug transporters including organic anion transporters (OAT1 and OAT3), organic cation transporters (OCT1 and OCT2), multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE1 and MATE2, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP).
