Clinical Implementation of Pharmacogenomics and Drug-Drug Interaction Screening in a German Academic Teaching Hospital and Outpatient Follow-Up. [PDF]
Overview of the implemented pharmacogenomics (PGx) process in clinical routine at the Robert Bosch Hospital: from patient enrollment via the hospital information system, DNA detection using a customized TaqMan OpenArray panel and qPCR for CNV assessment, to clinical translation of genotyping results into PGx guideline‐based recommendations using a ...

Short term protective effect of digitoxin in sepsis-induced acute lung injury
Purpose: Digitoxin is a cardiac glycoside used in the treatment of heart failure. Inspired by its known antiinflammatory effect, this study aims to investigate the effect of digoxin in a sepsis model and to bring to light its effect and underlying ...

Transforming Growth Factor-β Pathway: Biological Functions and Therapeutic Targets. [PDF]
Natural compounds modulate the TGF‐β pathway, which acts as both a tumor suppressor and promoter during cancer progression. Agents such as ginsenosides, halofuginone, and EGCG influence cell proliferation, apoptosis, and angiogenesis. These bioactive molecules may complement standard therapies, highlighting the need for advanced formulations ...

Repurposing Cardiac Glycosides: Drugs for Heart Failure Surmounting Viruses
Drug repositioning is a successful approach in medicinal research. It significantly simplifies the long-term process of clinical drug evaluation, since the drug being tested has already been approved for another condition.

Quo vadis Cardiac Glycoside Research?
Cardiac glycosides (CGs), toxins well-known for numerous human and cattle poisoning, are natural compounds, the biosynthesis of which occurs in various plants and animals as a self-protective mechanism to prevent grazing and predation.

Na+/K+-ATPase Revisited: On Its Mechanism of Action, Role in Cancer, and Activity Modulation
Maintenance of Na+ and K+ gradients across the cell plasma membrane is an essential process for mammalian cell survival. An enzyme responsible for this process, sodium-potassium ATPase (NKA), has been currently extensively studied as a potential ...
