A rapid and sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric method was developed and validated for the determination of HA15, an emerging anticancer compound targeting GSPA5/BIP delivered by dissolvable polymeric microneedles. The linear range of quantification for HA15 was 2.5-1000 ng/ml in plasma and tissue homogenate and the limit of detection and lower limit of quantification are 1 and 2.5 ng/ml, respectively. The inter- and intra-day accuracy and precision were within the acceptable range. HA15 was extracted from mouse plasma and organs using protein precipitation and using dabrafenib as an internal standard and the drug was stable under relevant analytical conditions. The method was used to analyze drug loading, dissolution in vitro, and release ex vivo from dissolvable polymeric microneedles and used to compare these materials to subcutaneous injection for the tissue distribution in tumor bearing nude mice.

Background: Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir is licensed for the treatment of mild-to-moderate coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in patients at an increased risk of progression to severe disease. However, data on the real-world plasma exposure to nirmatrelvir/ritonavir remain limited, particularly in Chinese patients. This study aimed to assess the nirmatrelvir/ritonavir trough concentration (Ctrough) and identify its critical factors in hospitalized Chinese patients treated with nirmatrelvir/ritonavir 300 mg/100 mg twice daily over a 5-day course.

2-Methoxyestradiol (2ME) is involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia and antitumor activity. In addition to its low concentration in healthy human serum, presence of isomers makes quantification of 2ME for clinical research and laboratory medicine difficult. The objective of this study was to develop a highly sensitive and accurate method for quantifying 2ME using LC-MS/MS combined with derivatization with 1-(2,4-dinitro-5-fluorophenyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperazinium iodide (MPDNP-F).

Introduction: 7,8-Dihydroxyflavone (7,8-DHF) is a promising translational therapy in several brain injury models, including the neonatal hypoxia-ischemia (HI) model in mice. However, the neuroprotective effect of 7,8-DHF was only observed in female, but not male, neonatal mice with HI brain injury. It is unknown whether HI-induced physiological changes affect brain distribution of 7,8-DHF differently for male versus female mice.

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a global health concern with significant short and long-term complications for both mother and baby. Early prediction of GDM, particularly late-onset, is crucial for implementing timely interventions to mitigate adverse outcomes. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive metabolomic analysis to explore potential biomarkers for early GDM prediction.

Oxygen consumption by oceanic microbes can predict respiration (CO production) but requires an assumed respiratory quotient (RQ; ΔO/ΔCO). Measured apparent RQs (ARQs) can be impacted by various processes, including nitrification and changes in dissolved organic matter (DOM) composition, leading to discrepancies between ARQ and actual RQ. In DOM remineralization experiments conducted in the eastern North Atlantic Ocean, ARQs averaged 1.
