Hypericin: Single molecule spectroscopy of an active natural ingredient [PDF]
Hypericin can be found in nature in Hypericum perforatum (St. John's Wort) and has become subject of intense biochemical research. Studies report of antidepressive, antineoplastic, antitumor and antiviral activity of hypericin. Among the variety of potential applications hypericin can be used as photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy (PDT), where it ...

Alpha Wavelet Power as a Biomarker of Antidepressant Treatment Response in Bipolar Depression [PDF]
There is mounting evidence of a link between the properties of electroencephalograms (EEGs) of depressive patients and the outcome of pharmacotherapy. The goal of this study was to develop an EEG biomarker of antidepressant treatment response which would require only a single EEG measurement.

A Skew Normal Model of the Dose-Effect Relation in Pharmacology [PDF]
This paper deals with a skew-normal model of the relation between a dose $d > 0$ and a quantitative measure $E(d)$ of an effect of the administered drug. Precisely, $E(d)$ is a measure of the therapeutic response or a measure of a side-effect. Some existing and additional properties of the logistic functions are proved, and a skew-normal model of the ...
