Acid-peptic ulcers and diseases have been increasingly on rise in today's era of globalization, which is characterized by hurry, worry, and curry. This review summarizes various disorders associated with increased gastric acid secretion and various therapeutic strategies to control them. The emphasis has been laid, in particular, on the role of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) widely used nowadays for the treatment of gastric acid diseases. The medicinal chemistry aspects and mechanism of action of irreversible PPIs and APAs have been discussed at molecular levels. The ongoing research status in this field has also been covered. Further, biological evaluation methods that can be used for screening of PPIs are also discussed in short.

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are among the most widely used drugs worldwide. However, their influence on the progression of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in established chronic kidney disease (CKD) cases is unclear. Using the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment database encoded by the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership-Common Data Model (OMOP-CDM), patients with stage 3 or 4 CKD initiating PPIs or histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs) for over 90 days were enrolled from 2012 through 2021.

The Anopheles maculipennis complex consists of several mosquito species, including some primary malaria vectors. Therefore, the presence of a species in a particular area significantly affects public health. In this study, 1252 mosquitoes were collected in northern Italy, representing four identified species of the Anopheles maculipennis complex (Anopheles daciae sp.

In recent decades, most studies of microbial rhodopsins have focused on their identification and characterization in aquatic bacteria. In 2021, actinomycetes of the family Geodermatophilaceae, commonly inhabiting terrestrial ecosystems in hot and arid regions, have been reported to contain rhodopsins with DTEW, DTEF and NDQ amino acid motifs. An advanced bioinformatics analysis performed in this work additionally revealed NTQ rhodopsin and heliorhodopsins.

Given the intrinsic resistance of to a wide range of conventional antibiotics, it is urgent to explore new therapeutic approaches to manage this infection effectively. Carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), a proton pump inhibitor, has shown good bacteriostatic activity against . This study aimed to determine its synergistic antimicrobial effects when combined with commonly used antibiotics.

The absorption and bioavailability of most tyrosine kinase inhibitors are affected by gastrointestinal pH as they are weak basic lipophilic drugs. Hence, concomitant use of acid reducing agents (ARAs) is frequently restricted. Particularly comedication of crystalline dasatinib (Sprycel) and proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) should be avoided.
