An analytical method based on the use of fluorescamine to produce a fluorescent derivative with histamine and combined with micellar-enhanced fluorescence detection of the formed complex is developed for the sensitive and rapid determination of histamine in fishes. The fluorescence properties of the obtained complex in water and micellar solutions of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) and brij-700 are reported. Physicochemical variables influencing the sensitivity of the method (pH, micellar, fluorescamine and NaCl relative concentrations) have been optimized. The stability of the formed complex, as shown by kinetic study, depends on the pH of the solution. Linear calibration curves allowing an effective histamine determination were established with large linear dynamic range (LDR), and low limits of detection (LOD) between 0.5 and 33 ng mL-1, according to the solvent. Application to the analysis of fish samples (sardines) yielded satisfactory results. The method seems to be suitable for environmental fish quality control.

Analysis of structure-kinetic relationships (SKR) can contribute to an improved understanding of receptor-ligand interactions. Here, fragment (4-(2-benzylphenoxy)-1-methylpiperidine) was used in different fragment growing approaches to mimic the putative binding mode of the long residence time (RT) ligands olopatadine, acrivastine, and levocetirizine at the histamine H receptor (HR). SKR analyses reveal that introduction of a carboxylic acid moiety can increase RT at HR up to 11-fold.

The appearance of 'web-like mucus' in the stomach is a novel phenomenon associated with vonoprazan (VPZ) usage, characterized by a descriptive mucus pattern resembling a spider web or net. The present study aimed to determine its prevalence and related factors. In this retrospective observational study, the medical records and endoscopic reports of 547 patients who underwent an esophagogastroduodenoscopy were reviewed.

Mast cell-mediated reactions promote various allergic disease, including anaphylaxis, allergic rhinitis, asthma, and atopic dermatitis. Different data demonstrated an intricate relationship between the use of antihistaminic drugs, the onset of side effects, and the development of resistance, underscoring the importance to find novel therapeutic approaches to treat allergic diseases. Olive leaf extract (OLE), is a by-product of the olive tree rich in bioactive compounds, known for its numerous therapeutic properties, including antioxidant, anti-tumoral and antidiabetic effects.

Background: Although Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) were mostly prescribed for gastrointestinal (GI) disease widely, there were numerous studies about PPIs and adverse renal outcome. Most evidence was to evaluate the risk of PPIs in patients with normal renal function and in the absence of the moderate to advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study focuses on the accelerated progression of renal function following proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) use, and the increased risks of acute kidney injury (AKI) among moderate to advanced CKD (pre-ESRD) patients.
