The transformed steroids containing delta 5-3 beta-hydroxy- or 3 beta, 5 alpha-dihydroxy-6-keto groups in the A/B rings and an additional cycle E (17,20-dihydroxy-delta-lactone, 16,23-pyranone or delta 20(22)-16 alpha, 17 alpha-dihydroxy-23-carbethoxy-side chain) (1 . 10(-5) M) inhibit Na+,K+-ATPase from pig kidney medulla or from ox brain. The steroid structure has a noticeable effect on ATPase inhibition varying from 3 to 26%. The data obtained suggest that the uneven distribution of polar substituents in the steroid molecule is essential for ATPase inhibition by steroid aglycons.

Endogenous sex hormone levels are associated with the revised Framingham Stroke Risk Profile in postmenopausal women: a longitudinal study in a Swedish cohort.
BMC Endocr Disord
January 2025
Family medicine, School of Public Health and Community Medicine, Institute of Medicine, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Box 454, Göteborg, 40530, Sweden.
Background: Endogenous sex hormones in postmenopausal women have been associated with risk of cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to determine the association between endogenous sex hormones and the revised Framingham Stroke Risk Profile (rFSRP) in postmenopausal women.
Methods: This is an observational cross-sectional study on the Vara-Skövde cohort, a Swedish population-based study for longitudinal surveillance of the development and progress of type 2 diabetes and hypertension.
Is first-line treatment with polatuzumab vedotin-rituximab-cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin and prednisone (pola-R-CHP) for previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma cost-effective in China? A cost-effectiveness analysis using a Markov model.

Objective: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of polatuzumab vedotin-rituximab-cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin and prednisone (pola-R-CHP) in CD20-positive patients with previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in China.
Design: A Markov model was constructed to analyse the cost-effectiveness of two strategies in CD20-positive patients with previously untreated DLBCL over a lifetime horizon: (1) pola-R-CHP and (2) rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (R-CHOP). The clinical outcomes were obtained from the POLARIX(NCT03274492), SCHOLAR-1, ZUMA-7(NCT03391466) and TRANSFORM(NCT03575351) trials.

We previously reported that the area under the curve of log-transformed cytomegalovirus antigenemia (CMV-AUC) until 100 days after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) was associated with an increased risk of non-relapse mortality. We applied a risk-adapted letermovir (LTV) prophylaxis strategy guided by a risk score that predicts a higher CMV-AUC. First, we retrospectively analyzed 278 allo-HCT recipients between 2007 and 2017 (Period 1).

Vitamin D receptor (VDR) has emerged as a crucial target for the treatment of hepatic fibrosis, a condition characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) components leading to impaired liver function. Activation of VDR has been shown to inhibit the transformation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), which play a key role in the development of liver fibrosis, thus reducing ECM production. In this study, a series of 37 non-steroidal VDR agonists with novel scaffold were designed and synthesized utilizing the scaffold hopping strategy.

Pregnancy is a period of profound biological transformation. However, we know remarkably little about pregnancy-related brain changes. To address this gap, we chart longitudinal changes in brain structure during pregnancy and explore potential mechanisms driving these changes.
