The aim of this study was to study the effect of ciprofloxacin (CFX) and ibuprofen (IBF) on the in vitro metabolism of rosiglitazone (RGZ) in human liver microsomes and on the pharmacokinetics of RGZ in healthy human volunteers. A randomized, placebo controlled, 3-way crossover design oral pharmacokinetic study was done in healthy human male volunteers and in vitro metabolism studies were done in human liver microsomes to study the effect of CFX and IBF on RGZ metabolism. Each subject received orally either 8 mg of RGZ with a placebo or co-administration with either 500 mg of CFX or 400 mg of IBF. Plasma concentrations of RGZ were estimated using a validated LC-MS/MS method and the metabolism studies samples were analyzed by a reported HPLC method. There was no statistically significant difference observed in the pharmacokinetic parameters viz., AUC(0-t), AUC(O-infinity), Cmax, Tmax, Kel and t1/2 of RGZ following co-administration of either CFX or IBF. Both CFX and IBF did not affect the in vitro metabolism of RGZ in human liver microsomes.

Background: Extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins play a crucial role in regulating the biological properties of adherent cells. For cryopreserved fibroblasts, a favourable ECM environment can help restore their natural morphology and function more rapidly, minimizing post-thaw stress responses.

Methods And Results: This study explored the functional responses of cryopreserved enriched caprine adult dermal fibroblast (cadFibroblast) cells to structural [collagen-IV and rat tail collagen (RTC)] and adhesion ECM proteins (laminin, fibronectin, and vitronectin) under in vitro culture conditions.

In-stent restenosis (ISR) following interventional therapy is a fatal clinical complication. Current evidence indicates that neointimal hyperplasia driven by uncontrolled proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) is a major cause of restenosis. This implies that inhibiting VSMC proliferation may be an attractive approach for preventing in-stent restenosis.

Background: Deformed wing virus (DWV) is a major honey bee pathogen that is actively transmitted by the parasitic mite Varroa destructor and plays a primary role in Apis mellifera winter colony losses. Despite intense investigation on this pollinator, which has a unique environmental and economic importance, the mechanisms underlying the molecular interactions between DWV and honey bees are still poorly understood. Here, we report on a group of honey bee proteins, identified by mass spectrometry, that specifically co-immunoprecipitate with DWV virus particles.

Background: Altered metabolism has become an important characteristic of cancer, and acyl-CoA dehydrogenase short-chain (ACADS), a regulator of lipid synthesis, is involved in carcinogenesis-associated metabolic pathways. DNA methylation is an important mechanism for silencing ACADS in various malignancies. However, the specific role of ACADS in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) pathogenesis remains poorly understood.

Background: The Golgi apparatus is widely considered a secretory center and a hub for different signaling pathways. Abnormalities in Golgi dynamics can perturb the tumor microenvironment and influence cell migration. Therefore, unraveling the regulatory network of the Golgi and searching for pharmacological targets would facilitate the development of novel anticancer therapies.
