AI Article Synopsis
- The study explored how Bunaphtine interacts with cardiac myosin using differential spectra analysis.
- Results showed a noticeable change in the spectrum, suggesting that Bunaphtine effectively interacts with the protein.
- This evidence indicates a significant relationship between the drug and cardiac myosin, which could have implications for understanding its effects on heart function.
Article Abstract
The interaction of Bunaphtine with cardiac myosin has been investigated by means the method of differential spectra. The results demonstrate the existence of a qualitative variation of the spectrum, which indicates an effective interaction drug-protein.

Background Introduction: Vestibular schwannoma (VS) tumors typically present with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Losartan has recently demonstrated prevention of tumor-associated SNHL in a mouse model of VS through suppression of inflammatory and pro-fibrotic factors, and the current study investigates this association in humans.
Methods: This is a retrospective study of patients with unilateral VS and hypertension followed with sequential audiometry at a tertiary referral hospital from January 1994 to June 2023.
Structural basis of THC analog activity at the Cannabinoid 1 receptor.

Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the principal psychoactive compound derived from the cannabis plant Cannabis sativa and approved for emetic conditions, appetite stimulation and sleep apnea relief. THC's psychoactive actions are mediated primarily by the cannabinoid receptor CB. Here, we determine the cryo-EM structure of HU210, a THC analog and widely used tool compound, bound to CB and its primary transducer, G.

The effect of immunotherapy for colorectal cancer (CRC) is limited due to anti-tumor immunosuppression. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are also associated with tumor immunity. The aim of this study was to clarify the regulatory relationship between circRNA and anti-tumor immunosuppression in CRC.

Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the impact of arginine vasopressin (AVP) and angiotensin II (Ang II) on aquaporin 2 (AQP2) expression in M - 1 cells.
Methods: M - 1 cells were stimulated with desmopressin (dDAVP) and Ang II, followed by treatment with tolvaptan and losartan. The expression and protein levels of V2R, AT1R, AQP2, and p-S256AQP2 were measured via ELISA, western blotting, RT-qPCR, and immunofluorescence.
An adenosine analog shows high antiviral potency against coronavirus and arenavirus mainly through an unusual base pairing mode.

By targeting the essential viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP), nucleoside analogs (NAs) have exhibited great potential in antiviral therapy for RNA virus-related diseases. However, most ribose-modified NAs do not present broad-spectrum features, likely due to differences in ribose-RdRP interactions across virus families. Here, we show that HNC-1664, an adenosine analog with modifications both in ribose and base, has broad-spectrum antiviral activity against positive-strand coronaviruses and negative-strand arenaviruses.
