Effects of antihypertensives with and without IL-6 lowering properties on long-term blood pressure control: The prospective HELIUS cohort.

Article Synopsis
  • Chronic inflammation, particularly the role of interleukin-6 (IL-6), is being explored as a target for improving hypertension treatment.
  • In a study involving 1,510 participants over six years, it was found that calcium channel blockers (CCBs) with IL-6-lowering properties (specifically amlodipine and barnidipine) resulted in better blood pressure control compared to other CCBs.
  • No significant differences were seen in blood pressure control among other antihypertensive classes or across different ethnic groups, indicating a need for further research into IL-6's impact on hypertension management.

Tigecycline is one of the last-resort treatment options for infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP). Unfortunately, tigecycline resistance is increasingly reported and causes an unprecedented public health crisis worldwide. Although studies on tigecycline resistance are expanding, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood.

Background: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are preferred for stroke prevention in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF); however, warfarin is still used. This study examined why physicians may choose warfarin over DOACs and the associated safety outcomes in patients with NVAF.

Methods: We conducted a new-user, active-comparator cohort study in newly diagnosed patients with NVAF to assess safety outcomes after the introduction of DOACs in Japan.

The ovary is the main controller of female fertility, unfortunately, its onset of aging processes was earlier than other organs. Our previous studies showed calcium (Ca) deficiency reduced ovarian weight and declined numbers of dominant follicles in an avian model. However, whether Ca provided a functional role in follicle development of aged avian, and its further mechanism was still unknown.

Jatrophane diterpenoids from Jatropha curcas with multidrug resistance reversal activity.

Fitoterapia

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Applied Organic Chemistry, College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou 730000, People's Republic of China. Electronic address:

Nine jatrophane diterpenoids, including six previously undescribed compounds, were extracted and purified from whole plants of Jatropha curcas L. Their structures including absolute configurations were characterized by spectroscopic, quantum chemical Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, Electronic Circular Dichroism calculation, and Single Crystal X-Ray Diffraction methods. These compounds were evaluated for their ability to reverse multidrug resistance.
