Urea receptor 1 based on two (1-amino-8-amido-3,6-dichloro)carbazole units shows a strong association with dicarboxylate anions such as oxalate, malonate and succinate guests through multiple hydrogen bonds from the carbazole, urea and amide NH groups. (1)H NMR complexation studies exhibit high values of association constants in DMSO-d(6). X-ray structures of the 1 : 1 complexes of 1 with oxalate and malonate as their ditetrabutylammonium salts were obtained. A modelling study of the complex of receptor 1 with succinate (as its diTBA salt) showed a more reduced geometric complementarity than its homologue malonate.

Aims: Sigma-1 receptor (S1R) activation was recently identified as a promising target for preventing diabetic nephropathy (DN) by mitigating hypoxia, oxidative stress, and inflammation. This study aimed to investigate the potential reno-protective effect of the S1R agonist afobazole against streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DN in rats compared to metformin.
Materials And Methods: Rats were split into six groups: the normal control group; the diabetic control group received STZ (55 mg/kg i.

Gain-of-function mutations in fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) genes lead to chondrodysplasia and craniosynostoses. FGFR signaling has a key role in the formation and repair of the craniofacial skeleton. Here, we analyzed the impact of Fgfr2- and Fgfr3-activating mutations on mandibular bone formation and endochondral bone repair after non-stabilized mandibular fractures in mouse models of Crouzon syndrome (Crz) and hypochondroplasia (Hch).

Purpose: This study aims to explore the mechanism of Yangxuerongjin pill (YXRJP) in the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) by network pharmacology and metabolomics technology combined with animal experiments, and to provide scientific basis for the treatment of DPN.
Methods: In this study, network pharmacology analysis was applied to identify the active compounds, core targets and signal pathways, which might be responsible for the effect of DPN. The DPN model was established by high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin (STZ) injection, and the rats were given administration for 12 weeks.

Estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer accounts for approximately 70% of cases. Endocrine therapies targeting estrogen are the first line therapies for ER+ breast cancer. However, resistance to these therapies occurs in about half of patients, leading to decreased survival rates.
