1. An h.p.l.c. method for the simultaneous determination of naphthol, naphthyl glucuronide and naphthyl sulphate in urine is described. This procedure is based on the selective formation of an ion pair between the sulphate conjugate and tetrabutyl lammonium, which allows its resolution from the glucuronide on a reverse phase column. 2. The h.p.l.c. method is sed to assess the selective enzyme hydrolysis method which is frequently employed in drug conjugate assays. Results suggest that the use of sulphatase and beta-glucuronidase may give data which are quantitatively and qualitatively erroneous.

Glimepiride (GLM) is one of the potential antidiabetic drugs used in clinics for a long time. It is currently used in combination with metformin along with other drugs, but has shown various complications in patients from long-term use. Thus, the hypothesis is to use a lower dose of GLM with a non-toxic class of flavonoid, naringin (NARN), for better therapy with minimal side-effects.

RBM family proteins plays the critical role in the progression of numerous tumors. However, whether RBM family proteins involved in prostate cancer (PCa) progression is remain elucidated. In our study, an RNAi screen containing shRNA library targeting 54 members of the RBM family was applied to identify the critical RBM proteins involved in prostate cancer progression under docetaxel treatment, and RBM19 was selected.

Gastrointestinal carriage of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, especially carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE), presents a critical public health threat globally. However, in many resource-constrained countries, epidemiological data on CPE is limited. Here, we assessed gastrointestinal carriage and associated factors of CPE among inpatient and outpatient children (≤ 5 years).

Energy supply is crucial for testicular development. Nevertheless, the specific alterations in the energy metabolic pathways that affect testicular development have not been extensively investigated. This study aimed to investigate the variations in metabolites and alterations in energy metabolic pathways in the testes of Hu sheep with different developmental status at 6 months of age.
