The free radical scavenger edaravone is able to stimulate prostacyclin release and inhibit the lipoxygenase pathway in the arachidonic acid cascade. The effect of edaravone administration on myocardial damage in rabbit hearts subjected to ischaemia-reperfusion was examined at different times relative to reperfusion. All rabbits underwent sustained coronary artery occlusion for 30 min followed by 3 h of reperfusion. Rabbits were divided into the following groups: control; early (3 mg/kg edaravone IV 10 min before reperfusion); immediate (3 mg/kg edaravone IV immediately after the start of reperfusion); and late (3, 6 or 10 mg/kg edaravone IV 5 min after the start of reperfusion). Single bolus administration of edaravone 10 min before reperfusion or immediately upon initiation of reperfusion appears to be associated with reductions in infarction size and the percentage of apoptotic cells, but treatment with edaravone 5 min after initiation of reperfusion does not appear to have this protective effect.

Background: Clinically ineffective reperfusion (CIR) refers to the discrepancy between successful reperfusion and a favorable functional outcome in patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke after endovascular treatment (EVT). The Improving Neuroprotective Strategy for Ischemic Stroke with Sufficient Recanalization after Thrombectomy by Intra-arterial Cocktail Therapy (INSIST-CT) trial aimed to explore the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of intra-arterial cocktail therapy using argatroban, dexamethasone, and edaravone in patients who achieved sufficient reperfusion after EVT.

Methods: In this prospective, single-arm, pilot study, eligible patients with anterior circulation LVO who achieved sufficient reperfusion after EVT were enrolled in the INSIST-CT trial.

Article Synopsis
  • The SHE study investigates the effectiveness and safety of combining selective endovascular brain hypothermia with edaravone dexborneol in treating acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
  • It is a multicenter, single-blind, randomized controlled trial involving 564 patients who received endovascular treatment within 24 hours of stroke onset.
  • The primary goal is to determine if this combination therapy results in better functional independence (measured by mRS score) at 90 days compared to edaravone dexborneol alone.

In recent years, the presence of Pharmaceutical Active Compounds (PhACs) in ecosystems has become a serious environmental problem due to their capacity to induce harmful effects at extremely low concentrations in both humans and wildlife. Water treatment plants have not been designed to remove these types of compounds efficiently. Thus, the detection of these pollutants is essential to evaluate their negative impacts and is one of the emerging issues in environmental chemistry.

Monosaccharide Analysis After One-Pot Derivatization Followed by Reverse-Phase Liquid Chromatography Separation and UV/Vis Detection.

Methods Mol Biol

April 2024

Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Division of Pharmaceutical Technology and Biopharmaceutics, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.

Derivatization of monosaccharides with 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone (PMP) introduces two chromophores per sugar molecule. Their separation on a superficially porous C18 reverse-phase column, using common liquid chromatography equipment, results in short analysis times (under 20 min) and high sensitivity (limit of quantitation 1 nmol). This method allows for complex monosaccharide mixtures to be separated and quantified using a reasonably simple and safe derivatization procedure.
