Despite potent anticancer activity, the clinical utilization of cisplatin is limited due to nephrotoxicity. As Organic Cation Transporter 2 (OCT2) has been shown to be one of the key transporters involved in the uptake of cisplatin into renal proximal ...

The Landscape of Biomarkers in ICU‐Associated AKI: From Protein Markers to Cell‐Free Nucleic Acids
Acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients—particularly in sepsis—often develops early and is missed by creatinine/urine output–based criteria, delaying risk stratification and timely intervention. This review synthesizes current evidence on established and emerging AKI biomarkers (e.g., NGAL, KIM‐1, [TIMP‐2]·[IGFBP7]) alongside circulating ...

ABSTRACT Background Pro‐inflammatory cytokines, TNF and IL‐1B, are essential for testicular homeostasis. Diacerein, an anti‐inflammatory drug, inhibits these cytokines, impairing M2 macrophages and Leydig cells (LCs). However, its impact on Sertoli cells (SCs) and M1 (CD68) macrophages remains unknown.

Interactions of Human- and Rat-Organic Anion Transporters With Pravastatin and Cimetidine
We have elucidated the interactions of human and rat organic anion transporters (hOATs and rOATs) with pravastatin and cimetidine. Pravastatin inhibited hOAT1/rOAT1, hOAT2/rOAT2, hOAT3/rOAT3, and hOAT4. The mode of inhibition was noncompetitive for hOAT1

Methaemoglobinaemia: From pathophysiology to contemporary clinical management
Summary Methaemoglobin (MetHb) is an oxidised form of haemoglobin (Hb) unable to bind oxygen. Raised levels of MetHb reduce the blood's oxygen‐carrying capacity, causing potentially severe hypoxaemia and possible death. The condition arises from three main pathologies: mutations in globin genes causing Haemoglobin‐M, inherited deficiency of the enzyme ...

The effects of cimetidine on rat adjuvant arthritis (AA) and rat osteoclast differentiation were studied. For the in vivo experiments, AA was induced by injections of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RA either subcutaneously into the base of the tail or ...

Summary Background Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by severe phototoxic reactions that occur within minutes of light exposure. In clinical studies, afamelanotide has been shown to prolong pain‐free sun exposure, improve quality of life, and reduce the frequency and severity of phototoxic reactions ...
