Article Synopsis
  • A new method for extracting and separating compounds from complex mixtures was developed using a circular chip and centrifugal force, enhancing the efficiency of microsolid phase extraction and chromatography.
  • The technique utilizes rice husk to create an effective sorbent for model drugs curcumin and phenazopyridine, and evaluates extraction factors using the one-variable-at-a-time method.
  • Results showed strong correlations between analyte concentration and detection intensities, with low limits of detection and high recovery rates in urine samples, indicating the method's reliability and effectiveness.

Aggregated α-synuclein (α-SYN) proteins, encoded by the gene, are hallmarks of Lewy body disease (LBD), affecting multiple brain regions. However, the specific mechanisms underlying α-SYN pathology in cortical neurons, crucial for LBD-associated dementia, remain unclear. Here, we recapitulated α-SYN pathologies in human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)-derived cortical organoids generated from patients with LBD with gene triplication.

Menstrual toxic shock syndrome (mTSS) is a rare but severe disorder associated with the use of menstrual products such as high-absorbency tampons and is caused by Staphylococcus aureus strains that produce the toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1) superantigen. Herein, we screened a library of 3920 small bioactive molecules for the ability to inhibit transcription of the TSST-1 gene without inhibiting the growth of S. aureus.

Drug metabolism by human gut microbes is often exemplified by azo bond reduction in the anticolitic prodrug sulfasalazine. Azoreductase activity is often found in incubations with cell cultures or ex vivo gut microbiome samples and contributes to the xenobiotic metabolism of drugs and food additives. Applying metagenomic studies to personalized medicine requires knowledge of the genes responsible for sulfasalazine and other drug metabolism, and candidate genes and proteins for drug modifications are understudied.
