A high-performance liquid chromatographic analysis of phenylpropanolamine in human serum and urine without prior derivatization is presented. Using direct UV detection the method is sufficiently sensitive to detect 25 ng of drug/ml of serum or urine; the coefficients of variation at 25 ng/ml and 500 ng/ml were 5. 16 and 2.12, respectively, in serum. The method involves serum and urine extraction at a basic pH with chloroform, a single back-extraction, and chromatography on a reverse-phrase column. Serum and urine data following administration of a single 150-mg sustained-release tablet of phenylpropanolamine hydrochloride in six healthy volunteers demonstrates the suitability of the analytical method.

Objective: Physical activity (PA) has been generally recognised as beneficial for health. The effect of a change in PA on kidney biomarkers in healthy individuals without kidney disease remains unclear. This manuscript synthesised the evidence of the association of changes in PA with kidney biomarkers in the general population free from kidney disease.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: The Chinese herbal Plantaginis Herba (PL) is one of the most widely used plants for both medicinal and dietary purposes. Plantaginis Herba is the main medicine used in a traditional Chinese prescription called Cheqiancao decoction, and it is known for its liver and kidney protective properties.

Aim Of The Study: The aim of the present study was to explore the interventions and mechanisms of PL in ADR nephropathy by performing an integrated analysis of in vitro and in vivo experiments.

Background: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a leading cause of renal failure, but its pathogenesis remains unclear, complicating diagnosis and treatment. The invasive nature of renal biopsy highlights the need for non-invasive diagnostic biomarkers. Bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of urine offers a promising approach for identifying molecular changes relevant to IgAN.

Purpose: The aim of our report was to recognize bladder cancer (BC)-specific serum exosome-derived long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) profile for early diagnosis of BC.

Methods: Potential BC-specific exosomal lncRNA indicators were discerned by genome-wide microarray profiling analysis of serum exosomes from 10 healthy participants and 10 early stage BC patients (Ta and T1), followed by multi-stage validation through quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) in BC cells, culture solution as well as 200 serum specimens and 50 tissue specimens from non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients. The diagnostic panel was established using logistic regression and evaluated by receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

In this research, we fabricated a sensitive monoclonal antibody (mAb) 2C3 that targeted etomidate (ET) and metomidate (MT) to establish a lateral-flow immunoassay (LFIA) that incorporated fluorescent microsphere sensors, enabling both the qualitative and quantitative detection of ET and MT within 10 min. Analysis indicated that the visual colorimetric values for ET and MT in water samples were 0.3 μg kg, respectively, with quantitative detection ranges of 0.
