Plant‐Derived Extracts Disrupt Biofilm Formation and Quorum Sensing in Yersinia enterocolitica: Insights From GC‐MS and Molecular Docking

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract represents how natural plant products that preferentially target the specific receptors of quorum sensing could be developed to combat biofilms linked to Yersinia enterocolitica using the potent abilities of protein–ligand complexes with high docking scores.

Pharmacogenetics of acenocoumarol: cytochrome P450 CYP2C9 polymorphisms influence dose requirements and stability of anticoagulation

Haematologica, 2002
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Cytochrome P4502C9 (CYP2C9) is the main enzyme implicated in coumarinic metabolism. Variant alleles, CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3, have been related to decreased enzymatic activity, but their clinical relevance in acenocoumarol ...

Research Progress of Berberine in Kidney Disease: Targeting Mitochondria and Ferroptosis

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
This figure illustrates the model‐specific renoprotective mechanisms of berberine (BBR) across three major kidney diseases. From left to right, the diagram shows that BBR targets distinct core pathways depending on the pathological context: in diabetic nephropathy (DN), BBR activates AMPK to improve mitochondrial energy metabolism; in acute kidney ...

Biological Effects of Selenium‐Containing Ionic Liquids: Cytotoxicity, Mercury Interaction, and Antiproliferative Activity in Glioblastoma Cells

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient that participates in redox regulation and cellular homeostasis. Selenium‐containing ionic liquids (ILsSe) have emerged as hybrid compounds combining the properties of organoselenium molecules with the tunable features of ionic liquids.

Human CYP2C9 Metabolism of Organophosphorus Pesticides and Nerve Agent Surrogates

Journal of Xenobiotics
Of the Cytochrome P450 enzymes, the CYP2C9 variant is very important in the metabolism of several human drugs, acting as a natural bioscavenger. Previously, CYP2C9 was shown to convert the thion (P=S) to the oxon (P=O) form for some organophosphorus (OP)

Warfarin Anticoagulation Therapy in Caribbean Hispanics of Puerto Rico: A Candidate Gene Association Study

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2017
Existing algorithms account for ~50% of observed variance in warfarin dose requirements after including common polymorphisms. However, they do not perform as well in populations other than Caucasians, in part because some ethno-specific genetic variants ...

Advancing Therapies for Mycobacterial Diseases: From Small Molecules to Host‐Directed Strategies

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global burden of multidrug‐resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) and the rising incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections highlight the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Current treatments are prolonged, toxic, and increasingly compromised by resistance and limited diagnostic capacity.
