Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic liver disorder with severe complications. Mitochondrial dysfunction due to over-opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) in liver cells plays a central role in the development and progression of NAFLD. Restoring mitochondrial function is a promising strategy for NAFLD therapy.

The eukaryotic serine/threonine protein phosphatase PP2A is a heterotrimeric enzyme composed of a scaffold A subunit, a regulatory B subunit, and a catalytic C subunit. Of the four known B subunits, the B"' subunit (known as striatin) interacts with the multi-protein striatin-interacting phosphatase and kinase (STRIPAK) complex. Orthologs of STRIPAK components were identified in Cryptococcus neoformans, namely PP2AA/Tpd3, PP2AC/Pph22, PP2AB/Far8, STRIP/Far11, SLMAP/Far9, and Mob3.

Understanding Cryptococcus neoformans pathogenesis requires a detailed analysis of the various virulence factors that contribute to its ability to cause disease. Cyclosporine, calcineurin inhibitor, impairs C. neoformans production of a polysaccharide capsule and secretion of urease, which are critical for cryptococcal pathogenesis.

Purpose: The role of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients receiving letermovir has not yet been clarified. This study is to explore letermovir trough concentration (C) correlation with its clinical efficacy and adverse events, and factors affecting its plasma concentrations.
Methods: A prospective, non-interventional study was performed in allo-HSCT recipients receiving letermovir prophylaxis.
