The induction and inhibition of human hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms by crystalline glucosamine sulfate (CGS) was investigated in vitro. Inhibition of CYP1A2, CYP2E1, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4 by CGS was assessed using recombinant human enzymes incubated with CGS (up to 3 mM expressed as free base). Induction of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 by CGS (0.01, 0.3 and 3 mM) was evaluated in cryopreserved human hepatocytes, by determining CYP mRNA expression using quantitative RT-PCR. CGS produced no inhibition or induction of any the CYP enzymes tested at concentrations hundred folds higher than the steady state peak plasma concentrations (approximately 10 microM) observed in man after therapeutic doses of CGS of 1500 mg once a day. Therefore, no clinically relevant metabolic interactions are expected between CGS and co-administered drugs that are substrates of the CYP enzymes investigated.

Docetaxel (DTX) is widely utilized in breast cancer treatment. However, cancer cell resistance has limited its anti-tumor efficacy. Some molecules called microRNAs (miRNAs), acting like fine-tuned switches, can influence how breast cancer develops and spreads.

Amidst growing concerns over COVID-19 aftereffects like fatigue and cognitive issues, NRICM101, a traditional Chinese medicine, has shown promise. Used by over 2 million people globally, it notably reduces hospitalizations and intubations in COVID-19 patients. To explore whether NRICM101 could combat COVID-19 brain fog, we tested NRICM101 on hACE2 transgenic mice administered the S1 protein of SARS-CoV-2, aiming to mitigate S1-induced cognitive issues by measuring animal behaviors, immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis.

Background: Crohn's disease (CD) is a refractory inflammatory bowel disease with an unclear etiology. CircularRNA (circRNA) has been highlighted as a novel class of functional noncoding RNAs associated with the pathogenesis of various diseases. However, the functions of circRNA in CD remain unclear.

The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a pivotal role in cancer progression by fostering intricate multicellular crosstalk among cancer cells, stromal cells, and immune cells. This review explores the emerging paradigm of utilizing nanoparticles to disrupt this crosstalk within the TME as a therapeutic strategy. Nanoparticles are engineered with precise physicochemical properties to target specific cell types and deliver therapeutic payloads, thereby inhibiting critical signaling pathways involved in tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis.
