Changes in intracellular calcium and glutathione in astrocytes as the primary mechanism of amyloid neurotoxicity [PDF]
Although the accumulation of the neurotoxic peptide {beta} amyloid ({beta}A) in the CNS is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease, the mechanism of {beta}A neurotoxicity remains controversial.

Conformational Studies of Ortho- and Meto-Isomers and Methyl, Dimethyl, and Chloro Ortho-Substituted Analogues of Dantrolene Using Ab Initio SCF-MO Procedures [PDF]
The conformation of the nitro group of nitroaromatic compounds relative to the aromatic ringsystem is suggested to affect their metabolic activation and mutagenicity. We have recently showed the nitrophenylfuran skeletal muscle relaxant, dantrolene, tobe

Mutism and rigidity due to antipsychotic‐induced catatonia improved by hemodialysis: A case report
We present a case of antipsychotic‐induced catatonia (AIC) due to intramuscular injection of haloperidol that was promptly improved by hemodialysis. This report suggests the potential role of hemodialysis in improving AIC. Abstract Background Catatonia is a psychomotor syndrome linked to various medical conditions.

Biological Function and Mechanism of NAT10 in Cancer
N‐acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) is an acetyltransferase that mediates the acetylation of proteins and RNA. NAT10 positively affects the proliferation, metastasis, invasion, and drug resistance of various cancers through the regulation of cancer‐related proteins and genes.
