Certain anti-cancer prodrugs are subject to cytochrome P450 (CYP)-mediated metabolism and become more active. Because CYP activity may be regulated by phosphorylation via adenylyl cyclase/protein kinase A, selective adenylyl cyclase subtype activators may be utilized in future chemotherapy to regulate CYP activity as a switch in a tumor tissue-specific manner.

Metabolic-dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease in the Western world. MASLD-associated cirrhosis prevalence is on the rise along with the obesity and metabolic syndrome epidemic. Genetic factors are included in the multi-hit model of MASLD pathogenesis and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) has an important role.

Introduction Surgical inpatients frequently require peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) for parenteral feeding and administration of medication. PICCs may cause upper limb deep venous thrombosis (ULDVT), which impacts patient morbidity. We investigated the risk and prevention of PICC-ULDVT in hospitalised surgical inpatients.

: Perillyl alcohol (POH), a monoterpene natural product derived from the essential oils of plants such as perilla (), is currently in phase I and II clinical trials as a chemotherapeutic agent. In this study, we investigated the effect of POH on cytochrome P450 (CYP) activity for evaluating POH-drug interaction potential. : The investigation was conducted using pooled human liver microsomes (HLMs), recombinant CYP3A4 (rCYP3A4) enzymes, and human pluripotent stem cell-derived hepatic organoids (hHOs) employing liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

We evaluated the prevalence and characteristics of persistent signs and/or symptoms in children and young people (CYP) one year after hospitalization for acute COVID-19 compared with a control group of CYP hospitalized for other conditions. We conducted an observational study in three hospitals in Madrid, which included a group of children aged between 1 month and 18 years who were hospitalized due to acute COVID-19 from March 2020 to December 2021. We also selected a comparison group of patients hospitalized for other, unrelated conditions within the same month.

Identification and Evolution Analysis of the Genes Involved in the 20-Hydroxyecdysone Metabolism in the Mud Crab, : A Preliminary Study.

Genes (Basel)

December 2024

Key Laboratory of East China Sea Fishery Resources Exploitation, Ministry of Agriculture, East China Sea Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences, 300 Jungong Road, Shanghai 200090, China.

Background: 20-Hydroxyecdysone (20E) is the most ubiquitous ecdysteroid (Ecd) and plays critical roles during the life cycle of arthropods. To elucidate the metabolism pathway of 20E in the economically important species, , we conducted a comprehensive exploration of the genes involved in the 20E metabolism pathway.

Methods: A comprehensive exploration of genes involved in the 20E metabolism pathway was conducted, including gene annotation, local blast using the ortholog as query, and TreeFam ortholog genes identification.
