We observed the effects of a chinese herb medicine Sho-saiko-to on the lethal and antitumor activities of recombinant human tumor necrosis factor (rhTNF) administered in mice. Sho-saiko-to was noted to protect the rhTNF-induced lethality in galactosamine-hypersensitized mice, and also Sho-saiko-to pretreated mice was protected against the decrease of rectal temperature after rhTNF administration. On the other hand, there was a remarkable enhancement of antitumor activity of rhTNF by Sho-saiko-to pretreatment. These results suggest that Sho-saiko-to drug may protect mice from severe shock syndrome induced by rhTNF.

The quantum transition state framework was developed to calculate the reaction path-resolved scattering matrix for atom-diatom reactions in hyperspherical (APH) coordinates. This approach allows for simply and directly calculating the reaction path-resolved scattering matrix, especially when the encircling reaction path is negligible. It could be used to determine the reactivities of specific pathways in a chemical reaction, providing insights into phenomena such as geometric phase effects.

Throughout the life cycle of mushrooms, countless spores are released from the fruiting bodies. The spores have significant implications in the food and medicine industries due to pharmacological effects attributed to their bioactive ingredients. Moreover, high concentration of mushroom spores can induce extrinsic allergic reactions in mushroom cultivation workers.

Topiramate is an antiepileptic drug (AED) that is effective in treating various types of epilepsy. This study evaluated the bioequivalence and safety of two topiramate tablets in healthy Chinese subjects under fasting and fed conditions. We designed an open-label, randomized, single-dose, two-period, crossover trial protocol.

A lanthanide ion-based metal-organic framework (Eu-TATAB nanorods) was designed and synthesized as an effective tri-mode nanoprobe for sensitive and portable detection of ethanol content in a water-ethanol mixture. The assay was based on the responsive properties of Eu-TATAB nanorods to ethanol stimulus and their adaptive encapsulation capability towards optically active lanthanides. With the addition of ethanol to the Eu-TATAB nanorods, the structure was destroyed, resulting in a decrease in luminescence, electrochemiluminescence, and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometric signals by perturbing energy transfer in the Eu-TATAB nanorods.
