AIM 4β-hydroxycholesterol (4βOHC) is an endogenous CYP3A(4) biomarker, which is elevated by use of the CYP3A4 inducer carbamazepine. Our aim was to compare to what extent serum concentration of 4βOHC correlates with dose (presystemic exposure) and steady-

ABSTRACT Germline variants in DEPDC5 are a cause of familial focal epilepsy with variable foci. Affected individuals may have focal cortical dysplasia if a second brain somatic variant occurs. As access to brain tissue is limited, the second somatic hit in the brain is usually presumed if a clear pathogenic germline variant is present. Here, we present

Objective A growing body of evidence indicates a strong genetic overlap between developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) and movement disorders. De novo loss‐of‐function variants in NUS1 have been recently identified in DEE cases. Herein, we report a large cohort of cases with pathogenic NUS1 variants and describe their clinical presentation

HLA-A*3101 and carbamazepine-induced hypersensitivity reactions in Europeans.
BACKGROUND Carbamazepine causes various forms of hypersensitivity reactions, ranging from maculopapular exanthema to severe blistering reactions. The HLA-B*1502 allele has been shown to be strongly correlated with carbamazepine-induced Stevens-Johnson ...

Metamizole induces voriconazole metabolism and results in subtherapeutic voriconazole concentrations
Aims Voriconazole is extensively metabolized via cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, predominantly CYP2C19 and CYP3A4. Drugs influencing the activity or expression of CYP enzymes can cause clinically relevant changes in the metabolism and voriconazole exposure. Metamizole is known to induce CYP3A4 and CYP2C19.

Pharmaceuticals entering Lake Champlain and their combination effects on developing Zebrafish Embryos [PDF]
Human-derived pharmaceuticals have been identified entering surface waters in the United States through wastewater effluent. While there is ample literature about what each compound alone does to aquatic life, little is known about the effects aquatic ...
