İnsanlığın karşı karşıya kaldığı en önemli halk sağlığı sorunlarından biri olan ilaç direnci, antilayşmanyal ajan geliştirmede yeni stratejileri ve yaklaşımları zorunlu kılmaktadır. Dışa atım pompa inhibitörleri (DAPİ) ve diğer aday ajanlar ile ilgili gelişmeler umut verici olmakla birlikte, mevcut antilayşmanyallerin kullanım sürelerini ve etkinliklerini artırabilme arayışları da devam etmektedir. Bu çalışmada rezerpin (REZ), berberin (BER) ve verapamil (VER) olmak üzere üç adet DAPİ'nin antilayşmanyallere etkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.

Despite significant advances in its management, AF remains a major healthcare burden affecting millions of individuals. Rhythm control with antiarrhythmic drugs or catheter ablation has been shown to improve symptoms and outcomes in AF patients, but current treatment options have limited efficacy and/or significant side-effects. Novel mechanism-based approaches could potentially be more effective, enabling improved therapeutic strategies for managing AF.

GABA receptor (GABAR) activation is known to alleviate pain by reducing neuronal excitability, primarily through inhibition of high voltage-activated (HVA) calcium (Ca2.2) channels and potentiating G protein-coupled inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels. Although the analgesic properties of small molecules and peptides have been primarily tested on isolated murine dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, emerging strategies to develop, study, and characterise human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived sensory neurons present a promising alternative.

Pancreatic cancer (PCa) is one of the most devastating cancers with few clinical signs and no truly effective therapy. In recent years, our team has demonstrated that nucleolin antagonists such as N6L could be a therapeutic alternative for this disease. In order to study a possible clinic development of N6L (multivalent pseudopeptide), we undertook to study the effect of combination of N6L with chemotherapies classically used for PCa on the survival of pancreatic cancer cells.

Background: Pharmacotherapy of chronic kidney disease (CKD) consists of prescribing myriad of drugs such as antihypertensives, antidiabetics, and phosphate binders to delay disease progression and control the comorbidities, resulting in inherent variability in prescriptions. In addition, tendency to self-medicate may further aggravate the condition. Hence, the present study was planned to assess self-medication practices and variability in prescription patterns in CKD patients.
