Anti‐desmoglein‐2 autoantibodies do not discriminate between UK boxer dogs with and without arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence regarding the diagnostic utility of serum anti‐desmoglein‐2 (DSG2) autoantibodies for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) in boxer dogs is conflicting. Methods Prospective standardised evaluation of apparently healthy boxer dogs for ARVC was performed at three referral centres, including blood pressure ...

Iodine and selenium intakes and status and thyroid function in midlife women with low bread intakes in New Zealand

open access: yesNutrition &Dietetics, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Iodine and selenium are important nutrients for thyroid function; however, the New Zealand food supply is generally low in both minerals. Bread can be a good source of these minerals; although the popularity of lower carbohydrate diets means some people avoid bread. This study aimed to investigate the effect of low bread intakes on iodine

Pharmacological inhibition of hydroxysteroid 11‐beta dehydrogenase type 1 (11‐βHSD1) after myocardial infarction preserves cardiac function in a translational mini‐pig model

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Plasma glucocorticoids increase acutely after MI, thereafter tissue levels are amplified selectively within cells expressing 11‐ßhydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11‐ßHSD1) that regenerates active glucocorticoids from circulating metabolites.

Amiodarone reduces depolarization-evoked glutamate release from hippocampual synaptosomes

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2017
Decreased brain glutamate level has emerged as a new therapeutic approach for epilepsy. This study investigated the effect and mechanism of amiodarone, an anti-arrhythmic drug with antiepileptic activity, on glutamate release in the rat hippocampus. In a

Novel Histopathologic Features of Diffuse Blue‐Gray Hyperpigmentation Associated With Kratom Use: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Drug‐induced hyperpigmentation accounts for 10%–20% of acquired pigmentary disorders and can be misdiagnosed for other causes such as melasma, post inflammatory changes, or heavy metal deposition. Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa), a Southeast Asian plant with an opioid‐like profile, has been increasingly used in the United States for ...

Microfluidic production of amiodarone loaded nanoparticles and application in drug repositioning in ovarian cancer

open access: yesScientific Reports
Amiodarone repositioning in cancer treatment is promising, however toxicity limits seem to arise, constraining its exploitability. Notably, amiodarone has been investigated for the treatment of ovarian cancer, a tumour known for metastasizing within the ...
