Bosentan fosters microvascular de-remodelling in systemic sclerosis
Bosentan, a dual endothelin receptor antagonist, may reduce blood pressure by blocking the vasoconstrictor effect of endothelin-1. In systemic sclerosis (SSc) nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC); allows diagnostic and follow-up of microvascular damage ...

This study aimed to assess the efficacy of steroid treatment with pulmonary vasodilators and tyrosine kinase inhibitors in patients with Pulmonary VenoOcclusive Disease (PVOD). Kaplan‐Meier curve showed that survival of PVOD patients with PSL (PRS) was significantly better with Log rank test (p = 0.01) than without PSL (PNS).

Abstract Objectives Antiseizure medications (ASMs) can induce the activity of drug‐metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters, including cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C9 and P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp). Our objective was to comparatively assess the effects of ASMs on exposure to clinical CYP2C9 and P‐gp substrates.

Exploring BSEP Inhibition-Mediated Toxicity with a Mechanistic Model of Drug-Induced Liver Injury
Inhibition of the bile salt export pump (BSEP) has been linked to incidence of drug-induced liver injury (DILI), presumably by the accumulation of toxic bile acids in the liver.
