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.

Fagerberg, Jonas Henrik published the artcileAffinity of Lipophilic Drugs to Mixed Lipid Aggregates in Simulated Gastrointestinal Fluids, Computed Properties of 72509-76-3, the main research area is sodium taurocholate affinity lipophilic lipid aggregate simulated gastrointestinal fluid; Affinity; Biorelevant dissolution media; Drug lipophilicity; Ionization; Mixed lipid aggregates; Solubilization.

Mixed lipid aggregates, comprising of bile salts and phospholipids, present in the small intestine assist in drug solubilization and subsequent drug dissolution and absorption through the intestinal epithelium. The increased variability in their levels, observed physiol., may create challenges not only for in vivo bioavailability and bioequivalence studies, but also for in vitro bio-predictive studies as correlations between in vitro and in vivo data are not always successful. The current study investigated the impact of biorelevant dissolution media, with physiol. relevant sodium taurocholate and lecithin levels, on the apparent solubility and affinity of lipophilic compounds with a wide range of physicochem. properties (drug ionization, drug lipophilicity, mol. weight) to mixed lipid aggregates. Apparent solubility data in biorelevant dissolution media for the studied neutral drugs, weak bases and weak acids were compared against a phosphate buffer pH 6.5 in the absence of these lipidic components. Presence of mixed lipid aggregates enhanced the apparent solubility of the majority of compounds and the use of multivariate data anal. identified the significant parameters affecting drug affinity to mixed lipid aggregates based on the chem. class of the drug. For neutral drugs, increasing bile salt concentrations and/or drug lipophilicity resulted in greater enhancement in apparent solubility at 24-h. For weak bases and weak acids, the effect of increasing bile salt levels on apparent solubility depended mostly on an interplay between drug lipophilicity and drug ionization.

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.

Lin, Yi-Sian published the artcileGWAS Meta-Analysis Reveals Shared Genes and Biological Pathways between Major Depressive Disorder and Insomnia, SDS of cas: 72509-76-3, the main research area is major depressive disorder insomnia gene biol pathway metaanalysis; GWAS; MDD; STRING; comorbidity; eQTL; gene network; insomnia; meta-analysis.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is one of the most prevalent and disabling mental disorders worldwide. Among the symptoms of MDD, sleep disturbance such as insomnia is prominent, and the first reason patients may seek professional help. However, the underlying pathophysiol. of this comorbidity is still elusive. Recently, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have begun to unveil the genetic background of several psychiatric disorders, including MDD and insomnia. Identifying the shared genomic risk loci between comorbid psychiatric disorders could be a valuable strategy to understanding their comorbidity. This study seeks to identify the shared genes and biol. pathways between MDD and insomnia based on their shared genetic variants. First, we performed a meta-anal. based on the GWAS summary statistics of MDD and insomnia obtained from Psychiatric Genomics Consortium and UK Biobank, resp. Next, we associated shared genetic variants to genes using two gene mapping strategies: (a) positional mapping based on genomic proximity and (b) expression quant. trait loci (eQTL) mapping based on gene expression linkage across multiple tissues. As a result, a total of 719 shared genes were identified. Over half (51%) of them are protein-coding genes. Functional enrichment anal. shows that the most enriched biol. pathways are related to epigenetic modification, sensory perception, and immunol. signatures. We also identified druggable targets using a network approach. Together, these results may provide insights into understanding the genetic predisposition and underlying biol. pathways of comorbid MDD and insomnia symptoms.
