Hong, Ji Young published the artcileAntenatal magnesium sulfate treatment and risk of necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants born at less than 32 weeks of gestation, Product Details of C17H18N2O6, the main research area is necrotizing enterocolitis gestation magnesium sulfate.

Abstract: Antenatal magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) treatment is widely used for fetal neuroprotection in women at risk of preterm delivery. However, some studies have recently suggested that in utero MgSO4 exposure is associated with an increased risk of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). This study aimed to investigate the association between antenatal MgSO4 treatment and risk of NEC. This retrospective cohort study included 756 infants born at 24-31 wk gestation. Subjects were classified into three groups: period 1, when MgSO4 treatment protocol for fetal neuroprotection was not adopted (n = 267); period 2, when the protocol was adopted (n = 261); and period 3, when the protocol was withdrawn because of concern of risk of NEC (n = 228). Rates of NEC (�stage 2b) were analyzed according to time period and exposure to antenatal MgSO4. Significant difference in the rate of NEC was not found across the three time periods (2.6% vs. 6.5% vs. 4.8% in periods 1, 2 and 3, resp., p = 0.103). The rate of NEC was comparable between the infants exposed and unexposed to antenatal MgSO4 (5.1% vs. 3.6%, p = 0.369). These results showed that antenatal MgSO4 treatment was not associated with risk of NEC in our study population.

Mishra, Abhishek Kumar published the artcileFunctional insights into voltage gated proton channel (Hv1) in bull spermatozoa, Recommanded Product: Dimethyl 2,6-dimethyl-4-(2-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate, the main research area is cAMP PKA voltage gated proton channel biomarker spermatozoa; Capacitation, 2-GBI, zinc, AEA, bull, spermatozoa; Catsper; Hv1; PKA; Sperm motility; sAC.

Acid extrusion and intracellular alkalisation are the key events during sperm capacitation and these are mediated through proton gated channels (Hv1). Role of Hv1 in regulating sperm motility, capacitation and acrosome reaction has been documented in human spermatozoa; but no such data is available in bull spermatozoa; therefore, the present study was undertaken in Hariana bull spermatozoa. Sixty four ejaculates were collected from four Hariana bulls to investigate the functional involvement of Hv1 in regulation of sperm motility, capacitation and acrosome reaction in bull spermatozoa. Immunoblotting revealed the presence of a single band of 31.8 kDa corresponding to Hv1 in Hariana bull spermatozoa and immunofluorescence confirmed the pos. immune-reactivity at principal piece of spermatozoa for Hv1. Functional study was carried out using 200μM 2- Guadinobenzimidazole (2-GBI,selective Hv1 blocker) and 1 mM zinc chloride (potent Hv1 blocker), and 0.3μM Anandamide (AEA), an activator of Hv1. Blocking as well as activation of Hv1 resulted in significant (P < 0.05) reduction in sperm livability, spermatozoa having intact membrane, intact acrosome, and high mitochondrial transmembrane potential (MTP). Further studies are required to find out the possible relationship between Hv1 channels and other channels in regulating spermatozoa functions.

Gierten, Jakob published the artcileAutomated high-throughput heartbeat quantification in medaka and zebrafish embryos under physiological conditions, Related Products of pyridine-derivatives, the main research area is nifedipine cardioprotectant embryo heartbeat Oryzias Danio cardiovascular development.

Abstract: Accurate quantification of heartbeats in fish models is an important readout to study cardiovascular biol., disease states and pharmacol. However, dependence on anesthesia, laborious sample orientation or requirement for fluorescent reporters have hampered the use of high-throughput heartbeat anal. To overcome these limitations, we established an efficient screening assay employing automated label-free heart rate determination of randomly oriented, non-anesthetized medaka (Oryzias latipes) and zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos in microtiter plates. Automatically acquired bright-field data feeds into an easy-to-use HeartBeat software with graphical user interface for automated quantification of heart rate and rhythm. Sensitivity of the assay was demonstrated by profiling heart rates during entire embryonic development. Our anal. revealed rapid adaptation of heart rates to temperature changes, which has implications for standardization of exptl. layout. The assay allows scoring of multiple embryos per well enabling a throughput of >500 embryos per 96-well plate. In a proof of principle screen for compound testing, we captured concentration-dependent effects of nifedipine and terfenadine over time. Our novel assay permits large-scale applications ranging from phenotypic screening, interrogation of gene functions to cardiovascular drug development.

Souza de Araujo, Guilherme Rodolfo published the artcileMicroemulsions formed by PPG-5-CETETH-20 at low concentrations for transdermal delivery of nifedipine: Structural and in vitro study, SDS of cas: 21829-25-4, the main research area is PPG5CETETH20 nifedipine microemulsion transdermal delivery skin permeation; Drug Delivery System(s); Microemulsion(s); Nanotechnology; Surfactant(s); Transdermal.

Nifedipine is a potent anti-hypertensive, which is poorly orally bioavailable on account of first-pass metabolism, short half-life, and low water solubility This study aimed to develop a microemulsified system with low surfactant concentration and to evaluate the influence of microemulsion (ME) phase behavior on skin permeation of nifedipine, as drug model. Thereafter, MEs were obtained using PPG-5-CETETH-20, oleic acid, and phosphate buffer at pH 5.0. The selected MEs were isotropic, with droplet diameters less than 10 nm, polydispersity index < 0.25, and pH between 5.0 and 5.2. MEs presented low viscosity and Newtonian behavior. SAXS results confirmed bicontinuous and oil-in-water (o/w) MEs formation. The presence of the drug promoted only very slight modifications in the ME structure. The MEs presented ability to deliver nifedipine via the transdermal route when in comparison with the control. Nevertheless, the skin permeated and retained amounts from the o/w and bicontinuous formulations did not differ significantly. The ATR-FTIR demonstrated that both formulations promoted fluidization and disorganization of lipids and increased the drug diffusion and partition coefficients in the skin. In conclusion, PPG-5-CETETH-20 MEs obtained proved to be effective skin permeation enhancers, acting by rising the coefficients of partition and diffusion of the nifedipine in the skin.

Farrah, Tariq E. published the artcileEndothelin Receptor Antagonism Improves Lipid Profiles and Lowers PCSK9 (Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9) in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease, Computed Properties of 21829-25-4, the main research area is chronic kidney disease lipid PCSK9 endothelin receptor antagonism; atherosclerosis; cardiovascular disease; cholesterol; endothelins; triglycerides.

We assessed the effects of selective ETA antagonism on circulating lipids and PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) in CKD. This was a secondary anal. of a fully randomized, double-blind, 3-phase crossover study. Twenty-seven subjects with predialysis CKD on optimal cardio- and renoprotective treatment were randomly assigned to receive 6 wk dosing with placebo, the selective ETA receptor antagonist, sitaxentan, or long-acting nifedipine. We measured circulating lipids and PCSK9 at baseline and then after 3 and 6 wk. Baseline lipids and PCSK9 did not differ before each study phase. Whereas placebo and nifedipine had no effect on lipids, 6 wk of ETA antagonism significantly reduced total (-11±1%) and low-d. lipoprotein-associated (-20±3%) cholesterol, lipoprotein (a) (-16±2%) and triglycerides (-20±4%); high-d. lipoprotein-associated cholesterol increased (+14±2%), P<0.05 vs. baseline for all. Addnl., ETA receptor antagonism, but neither placebo nor nifedipine, reduced circulating PCSK9 (-19±2%; P<0.001 vs. baseline; P<0.05 vs. nifedipine and placebo). These effects were independent of statin use and changes in blood pressure or proteinuria. Selective ETA antagonism improves lipid profiles in optimally-managed patients with CKD, effects that may occur through a reduction in circulating PCSK9. ETA receptor antagonism offers a potentially novel strategy to reduce cardiovascular disease risk in CKD.

Langston-Cox, A. G. published the artcileSulforaphane Bioavailability and Effects on Blood Pressure in Women with Pregnancy Hypertension, Recommanded Product: Dimethyl 2,6-dimethyl-4-(2-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate, the main research area is sulforaphane bioavailability blood pressure pregnancy hypertension women; Antioxidant; Bioavailability; Broccoli; Preeclampsia; Sulforaphane.

Sulforaphane, an isothiocyanate found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, shows promise as an adjuvant therapy for preeclampsia. To inform future clin. trials, we set out to determine the bioavailability of sulforaphane in non-pregnant and preeclamptic women. In six healthy female volunteers, we performed a crossover trial to compare the bioavailability of sulforaphane and metabolites afforded by activated and non-activated broccoli extract preparation We then undertook a dose escalation study of the activated broccoli extract in 12 women with pregnancy hypertension. In non-pregnant women, an equivalent dose of activated broccoli extract gave higher levels of sulforaphane and metabolites than a non-activated extract (p < 0.0001) and greater area under the curve (AUC) (3559 nM vs. 2172 nM, p = 0.03). Compared to non-pregnant women, in women with preeclampsia, the same dose of activated extract gave lower levels of total metabolites (p < 0.000) and AUC (3559 nM vs. 1653 nM, p = 0.007). Doubling the dose of the activated extract in women with preeclampsia doubled levels of sulforaphane and metabolites (p = 0.02) and AUC (1653 nM vs. 3333 nM, p = 0.02). In women with preeclampsia, activated broccoli extract was associated with modest decreases in diastolic blood pressure (p = 0.05) and circulating levels of sFlt-1 (p = 0.0002). A myrosinase-activated sulforaphane formulation affords better sulforaphane bioavailability than a non-activated formulation. Higher doses of sulforaphane are required to achieve likely EDs in pregnant women than in non-pregnant women. Sulforaphane may improve endothelial function and blood pressure in women with pregnancy hypertension.

Korkka, Iina published the artcileFunctional Voltage-Gated Calcium Channels Are Present in Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Retinal Pigment Epithelium, Quality Control of 21829-25-4, the main research area is calcium channel embryonic stem cell retinal pigment epithelium disease; Patch-clamp; Phagocytosis; Retinal pigment epithelium; Stem cells; Vascular endothelial growth factor; Voltage-gated Ca2+ channels.

Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) performs important functions for the maintenance of photoreceptors and vision. Malfunctions within the RPE are implicated in several retinal diseases for which transplantations of stem cell-derived RPE are promising treatment options. Their success, however, is largely dependent on the functionality of the transplanted cells. This requires correct cellular physiol., which is highly influenced by the various ion channels of RPE, including voltage-gated Ca2+ (CaV) channels. This study investigated the localization and functionality of CaV channels in human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived RPE. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from these cells revealed slowly inactivating L-type currents comparable to freshly isolated mouse RPE. Some hESC-RPE cells also carried fast transient T-type resembling currents. These findings were confirmed by immunostainings from both hESC- and mouse RPE that showed the presence of the L-type Ca2+ channels CaV1.2 and CaV1.3 as well as the T-type Ca2+ channels CaV3.1 and CaV3.2. The localization of the major subtype, CaV1.3, changed during hESC-RPE maturation co-localizing with pericentrin to the base of the primary cilium before reaching more homogeneous membrane localization comparable to mouse RPE. Based on functional assessment, the L-type Ca2+ channels participated in the regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor secretion as well as in the phagocytosis of photoreceptor outer segments in hESC-RPE. Overall, this study demonstrates that a functional machinery of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels is present in mature hESC-RPE, which is promising for the success of transplantation therapies.

Ulivieri, Alessandra published the artcileThyroid hormones regulate cardiac repolarization and QT-interval related gene expression in hiPSC cardiomyocytes, Formula: C17H18N2O6, the main research area is thyroid hormone induced pluripotent stem cardiomyocyte cardiac dysfunction.

Prolongation of cardiac repolarization (QT interval) represents a dangerous and potentially life-threatening elec. event affecting the heart. Thyroid hormones (THs) are critical for cardiac development and heart function. However, little is known about THs influence on ventricular repolarization and controversial effects on QT prolongation are reported. Human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) and multielectrode array (MEA) systems were used to investigate the influence of 3,3′,5-triiodo-L-Thyronine (T3) and 3,3′,5,5′-tetraiodo-L-Thyronine (T4) on corrected Field Potential Duration (FPDc), the in vitro analog of QT interval, and on local extracellular Action Potential Duration (APD). Treatment with high THs doses induces a significant prolongation of both FPDc and APD, with the strongest increase reached after 24 h exposure. Preincubation with reverse T3 (rT3), a specific antagonist for nuclear TH receptor binding, significantly reduces T3 effects on FPDc, suggesting a TRs-mediated transcriptional mechanism. RNA-seq anal. showed significant deregulation in genes involved in cardiac repolarization pathways, including several QT-interval related genes. In conclusion, long-time administration of high THs doses induces FPDc prolongation in hiPSC-CMs probably through the modulation of genes linked to QT-interval regulation. These results open the way to investigate new potential diagnostic biomarkers and specific targeted therapies for cardiac repolarization dysfunctions.

Held, Katharina published the artcilePharmacological properties of TRPM3 isoforms are determined by the length of the pore loop, Computed Properties of 21829-25-4, the main research area is trpm3 pore loop length pharmacol property; Splice variants TRP channels; TRPM3; nociception.

Background and Purpose : Transient receptor potential melastatin 3 (TRPM3) is a non-selective cation channel that plays a pivotal role in the peripheral nervous system as a transducer of painful heat signals. Alternative splicing gives rise to several TRPM3 variants. The functional consequences of these splice isoforms are poorly understood. Here, the pharmacol. properties of TRPM3 variants arising from alternative splicing in the pore-forming region were compared. Exptl. Approach : Calcium microfluorimetry and patch clamp recordings were used to compare the properties of heterologously expressed TRPM3α1 (long pore variant) and TRPM3α2-α6 (short pore variants). Furthermore, site-directed mutagenesis was done to investigate the influence of the length of the pore loop on the channel function. Key Results : All short pore loop TRPM3α variants (TRPM3α2-α6) were activated by the neurosteroid pregnenolone sulfate (PS) and by nifedipine, whereas the long pore loop variant TRPM3α1 was insensitive to either compound In contrast, TRPM3α1 was robustly activated by clotrimazole, a compound that does not directly activate the short pore variants but potentiates their responses to PS. Clotrimazole-activated TRPM3α1 currents were largely insensitive to established TRPM3α2 antagonists and were only partially inhibited upon activation of the μ opioid receptor. Finally, by creating a set of mutant channels with pore loops of intermediate length, we showed that the length of the pore loop dictates differential channel activation by PS and clotrimazole. Conclusion and Implications : Alternative splicing in the pore-forming region of TRPM3 defines the channel’s pharmacol. properties, which depend critically on the length of the pore-forming loop.

Gui, Yue published the artcilePolymorphic selectivity in crystal nucleation, Computed Properties of 21829-25-4, the main research area is polymorphic selectivity crystal nucleation glass forming liquid.

Crystal nucleation rates were measured in the supercooled melts of 2 richly polymorphic glass-forming liquids: 5-Me-2-[(2-nitrophenyl)amino]-3-thiophenecarbonitrile (ROY) and nifedipine (NIF). ROY is known for its crystals of red, orange, and yellow colors and many polymorphs of solved structures. Of the many polymorphs, ON (orange needles) nucleates the fastest with the runner up (Y04) trailing by a factor of 103 when compared under the same mobility-limited condition, while the other unobsd. polymorphs are slower yet by â‰? orders of magnitude. Of the 6 polymorphs of NIF, γ’ nucleates the fastest, β’ is slower by a factor of 10, and the rest are slower yet by â‰? decades. In both systems, the faster-nucleating polymorphs are not built from the lowest-energy conformers, while they tend to have higher energies and lower densities and thus greater similarity to the liquid phase by these measures. The temperature ranges of this study covered the glass transition temperature Tg of each system, and no evidence that the nucleation rate is sensitive to the passage of Tg were found. At the lowest temperatures studied, the rates of nucleation and growth are proportional to each other, indicating that a similar kinetic barrier controls both processes. The classical nucleation theory provides an accurate description of the observed nucleation rates if the crystal growth rate is used to describe the kinetic barrier for nucleation. The quant. rates of both nucleation and growth for the competing polymorphs enable prediction of the overall rate of crystallization and its polymorphic outcome.
