Recombinant erythropoietin (rEPO)-associated immunologically driven acquired pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is an underreported, potentially worsening clinical syndrome in the setting of treatment of anemia of chronic kidney disease. Most cases reported in world literature are related to different formulations of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents with an implication in diagnosis and management. This brief review highlights the clinical guidelines of rEPO usage in nephrology practice, the pathophysiologic mechanism of PRCA, clinical features, diagnosis, and suggested management protocols.

Soil microbes are among the most abundant and diverse organisms on Earth but remain poorly characterized. New technologies have made possible to sequence the DNA of uncultivated microorganisms in soil and other complex ecosystems. Genome assembly is crucial for understanding their functional potential.

Background: Human cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1) is an extrahepatic enzyme that is overexpressed in many tumors and is associated with tumor development and acquired resistance. Few studies have reported that anthraquinone compounds have inhibitory activity against the CYP1B1 enzyme. Cassiae semen (Leguminosae) is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine containing more than 70 compounds.

The adoption of pure component models, such as iterative optimization technology (IOT) algorithms, is gaining significant interest in the pharmaceutical industry, primarily because of their calibration-free/minimal calibration requirements for process analytical technology applications. The IOT methods have recently demonstrated great potential for monitoring the quality of continuous powder mixtures by Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. However, the dynamic conditions of continuous manufacturing processes may limit the effectiveness of such approaches.
