Decreased glutathione biosynthesis contributes to EGFR T790M-driven erlotinib resistance in non-small cell lung cancer [PDF]
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors such as erlotinib are novel effective agents in the treatment of EGFR-driven lung cancer, but their clinical impact is often impaired by acquired drug resistance through the secondary T790M EGFR mutation.

Sodium chloride transport of normal and dietary enlarged rat cecum in vitro [PDF]
Sodium chloride transport across isolated cecum mucosa was investigated in normal rats and rats with adaptive cecum growth induced by dietary polyethylene glycol (PEG). The normal cecum absorbed CI in excess of Na with a small short-circuit current (Isc).

Ultrafiltration in Diuretic-Resistant Cardiac Failure
Ultrafiltration was performed in 13 patients with diuretic-resistant cardiac failure. All patients had severely distressing peripheral edema and ultrafiltration was successfully completed in 12 patients, all of whom sustained symptomatic improvement. The volume of fluid removed ranged from 3.7 to 23 L, mean 11.8 L.
