Published: March 2009

A new, fast, efficient and general method for preparation of steroid analogous of anticipated biological activity under ultrasound irradiation and classical heating is reported. The reaction pathway involves two steps: quaternization of phthalazine heterocycle followed by a 3+2 dipolar cycloaddition of cycloimmonium ylides to dienophiles. Under ultrasound the reaction time decreases substantially, the yields are higher, the reaction conditions are milder. A comparative study ultrasound verses classical heating has been done.

This study explores the relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D/calcium/alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels and kidney stone development via cross-sectional and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2013 to 2018 to explore the associations of 25(OH)D metabolite, calcium, and ALP levels with kidney stone development, LDSC analysis to determine the associations between their genetically predicted levels and kidney stone development, and MR analysis to determine the causality of those relationship via genome-wide association studies (GWASs). The cross-sectional study revealed a relationship between ALP levels and kidney stone development (Model 1: OR = 1.

Several treatment modalities have been used for the treatment of keloid scarring but the optimal treatment has not yet been identified. Corticosteroids reduce excessive scarring by reducing collagen synthesis. Vitamin D can curb inflammation by inhibiting the activation and migration of leukocytes.

Background: Trastuzumab deruxtecan (TDXd) is an antibody-drug conjugate that has demonstrated impressive activity in randomized controlled clinical trials in the context of patients with HER2-amplified and HER2-low metastatic breast cancer. We aimed to review the activity and adverse event profile of TDXd in heavily pretreated breast cancer patients in real practice.

Methods: We describe a single-center retrospective case series of metastatic breast cancer patients who were treated with TDXd.

Introduction: This article describes the invention of graphene oxide (GO) or reduced graphene oxide (rGO) functionalised with 2-methoxy estradiol. The presence of polar hydroxyl groups enables the binding of 2-ME to GO/rGO through hydrogen bonds with epoxy and hydroxyl groups located on the surface and carbonyl and carboxyl groups located at the edges of graphene flake sheets.

Methods: The patented method of producing the subject of the invention and the research results regarding its anticancer effectiveness via cytotoxicity in an in vivo model (against A375 melanoma and 143B osteosarcoma cells) are described.

Modulation of microbiota composition and markers of gut health after in vitro dynamic colonic fermentation of plant sterol-enriched wholemeal rye bread.

Nutrition and Food Science Area, Faculty of Pharmacy and Food Sciences, University of Valencia, Av. Vicente Andrés Estellés s/n, 46100 Burjassot, Spain. Electronic address:

A human oral phase followed by a dynamic gastrointestinal digestion and colonic fermentation (simgi®) has been applied to wholemeal rye bread (WRB) and PS-enriched WRB (PS-WRB). The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of these solid and high-fiber food matrices on the metabolism of PS, modulation of the microbiota and production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) and ammonium ion after a simulated chronic intake (5 days). In both breads, campesterol, campestanol, stigmasterol, β-sitosterol, sitostanol, Δ5-avenasterol, Δ5,24-stigmastadienol, Δ7-stigmastenol, and Δ7-avenasterol were identified, of which only β-sitosterol was metabolized to sitostenone after PS-WRB treatment.
