The synthesis of N6,O2'-dipivaloyl-cyclic AMP is described with some pharmacological tests made in comparison with the dibutyryl homolog. The two compounds proved equally active in increasing glycemia in the rabbit whereas the dipivaloyl derivative is less effective in counteracting contractions induced by imidazole in the isolated guinea-pig trachea.

Evidence-based dose selection of drugs in pregnant women has been lacking because of challenges in studying maternal-fetal pharmacokinetics. Hence, many drugs are administered off-label during pregnancy based on data obtained from nonpregnant women. During pregnancy, drug transporters play an important role in drug disposition along with known gestational age-dependent changes in physiology and drug-metabolizing enzymes.

Obesity and its associated metabolic disorders are significant global health challenges, necessitating novel therapeutic approaches. This study explores the anti-adipogenic and anti-dyslipidemic properties of 4655-EF, a novel phytopharmaceutical derived from Polyalthia longifolia, and explores the molecular pathways involved in its pharmacological activity. This phytopharmaceutical was prepared using a bioactivity-guided supercritical fluid extraction method suitable for large-scale production.

The objective of this study is to fabricate and develop hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) hydrogel (HG)-based composite bone cements with incorporation of hydroxyapatite (HA), beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), and with/without polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) for vertebroplasty. For animal study, twenty female Wister rats (250-300 g, 12 weeks of age) were divided into four groups including a two non-ovariectomy (NOVX) groups and two ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporosis groups. Two prepared biocomposites including HG/β-TCP/HA and HG/β-TCP/HA/PMMA were injected into the tibial defects of both OVX and NOVX rats for evaluating in vivo osteogenesis after 12 weeks.
