The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is an anion channel that is dysfunctional in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). The permeability of CFTR can be experimentally manipulated though different mechanisms, including activation via inducing the phosphorylation of residues in the regulatory domain as well as altering the gating/open probability of the channel. Phosphorylation/activation of the channel is achieved by exposure to compounds that increase intracellular cAMP, with forskolin and IBMX commonly used for this purpose.

This survey aimed to investigate the availability of drugs for stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) treatment in Chinese hospitals and to determine whether drug availability significantly varied among hospitals with different characteristics. A well-constructed questionnaire was designed according to the Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of COPD (revised version 2021). Both inhaled drugs (monotherapy, double therapy and triple therapy) and oral drugs (expectorants, theophylline, antibiotics, and bacterial lysates) were included in this survey.

Pharmaceutical 3D printing (3DP) not only offers the possibility of dose personalization but also the co-administration of multiple active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in one combination tablet. In this study, Theophylline (TPH) and Prednisolone (PSL) were printed as bi-tablets, which are single tablets with two distinct separate compartments. New findings show that the combination therapy of TPH with systemic corticosteroids shows a highly synergistic effect in the treatment of pulmonary diseases.
