The pharmacokinetics and drug disposition of 14C 1-[3-[[4-[2-(1-methylethoxy)phenyl]-1-piperazinyl]methyl]benzoy]piperidine succinate (RWJ-37796, mazapertine, Mz) have been investigated in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats. Approximately 93% of the orally administered radioactive dose (30 mg/kg) was recovered after 7 days. Fecal elimination accounted for approximately 63% of the dose while urine accounted for 30%. The rate of elimination of 14C Mz was rapid with 81% of the total fecal and 94% of the total urinary radioactivity being excreted within 24 h. There were no significant gender differences in the overall excretion pattern. The maximal plasma concentration of Mz and total radioactivity occurred at 0.5h after dosing and plasma concentrations were consistently higher in female rats. The Mz concentration declined rapidly in plasma with a terminal half-life<2 h. The total radioactive dose in plasma displayed a considerably longer terminal half-life of 9-13 h. Mz and a total of 15 metabolites were isolated and identified in these samples. Unchanged Mz accounted for <5% of the radioactive dose in excreta samples and <8% of the sample in plasma (0-24 h). Metabolites were formed by phenyl hydroxylation, piperidyl oxidation, O-dealkylation, N-dephenylation, oxidative N-debenzylation and glucuronide conjugation.

Despite the pivotal role of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in anti-tumor immunity, a substantial proportion of CTL-rich hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients experience early relapse or immunotherapy resistance. However, spatial immune variations impacting the heterogeneous clinical outcomes of CTL-rich HCCs remain poorly understood. Here, we compared the single-cell and spatial landscapes of 20 CTL-rich HCCs with distinct prognoses using multiplexed in situ staining and validated the prognostic value of myeloid spatial patterns in a cohort of 386 patients.

In our previous study, we identified a Short Interspersed Nuclear Element Retrotransposon Insertion Polymorphism (SINE-RIP) within the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of the Phospholipase A2 Group XVI (PLA2G16) gene, which is essential in lipid metabolism. In this study, we confirmed the presence of this 280 bp SINE insertion and examined its distribution across ten distinct pig breeds using PCR and sequencing. Subsequently, RT-PCR was employed to determine its potential for co-transcription.

Central nervous system infections (CNS) are life-threatening infections in children, requiring urgent intervention and rapid diagnosis. In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of syndromic tests in diagnosing CNS infections and the distribution of viral pathogens in pediatric patients. A total of 145 pediatric patients with a prediagnosis of CNS infection based on clinical findings by a pediatric infectious disease specialist were included in the study.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is a significant burden on healthcare systems, especially in low- and middle-income countries where access to diagnosis and treatment is challenging.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the diagnostic accuracy and cost using tissue microarray (TMA) instead of traditional immunohistochemical (IHC) evaluation for estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2), and the proliferation marker Ki-67 and BC subtyping within the Brazilian public health system.
Design: This is a retrospective cohort study comparing TMA slides with traditional whole-slide evaluation for IHC markers in 242 BC cases.
A single-cell compendium of human cerebrospinal fluid identifies disease-associated immune cell populations.

Single-cell transcriptomics applied to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for elucidating the pathophysiology of neurologic diseases has produced only a preliminary characterization of CSF immune cells. CSF derives from and borders central nervous system (CNS) tissue, allowing for comprehensive accounting of cell types along with their relative abundance and immunologic profiles relevant to CNS diseases. Using integration techniques applied to publicly available datasets in combination with our own studies, we generated a compendium with 139 subjects encompassing 135 CSF and 58 blood samples.
