Form (III) of artemisinin: discovery and crystallographic characterization of a new high-pressure polymorph. [PDF]
The polymorphic behaviour of the three forms of artemisinin was investigated using single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction in a diamond anvil cell, with notable observation of a pressure‐induced phase transition from form (II) to form (III).Artemisinin (ART) is mainly used for the treatment of malaria and exhibits polymorphism with two known crystalline forms.

Two Patients With Extremely Long Type 1 Diabetes Duration With Very Few Complications and Remaining Insulin Secretion. [PDF]
ABSTRACT We present two patients with > 80 years with type 1 diabetes (T1D), but with minor complications. Their history and risk factors are characterized as are factors conferring resilience against angiopathy. Amazingly, both had clearly detectable C‐peptide.

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery decreases intestinal aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling in male mice. [PDF]
Abstract The impact of Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on indole metabolism and AhR signaling is poorly understood. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that RYGB changes the indole metabolite profile in the gut, leading to changes in AhR signaling. To test this hypothesis, we developed a mouse model of RYGB that recapitulates the human procedure. Given

The Role of Vasopressin V2 Receptor in Drug-Induced Hyponatremia
Hyponatremia is frequently encountered in clinical practice and usually induced by renal water retention. Many medications are considered to be among the various causes of hyponatremia, because they either stimulate the release of arginine vasopressin ...

Where do sulphonylureas fit in the type 2 diabetes guidelines?
Sulphonylureas act by binding to sulphonylurea receptors and stimulating insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells. This class of oral hypoglycaemic agents is still widely used in the management of type 2 diabetes in patients where lifestyle changes ...
