Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of HSK31858, a novel oral dipeptidyl peptidase‐1 inhibitor, in healthy volunteers: An integrated phase 1, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled, single‐ and multiple‐ascending dose study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Dipeptidyl peptidase‐1 (DPP‐1) inhibitors have been studied for the treatment of neutrophil‐mediated inflammatory diseases including bronchiectasis, bronchial asthma and cystic fibrosis. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of DPP‐1 inhibitor HSK31858 in healthy Chinese volunteers.

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Increased citrullination and expression of peptidylarginine deiminases independently of P. gingivalis and A. actinomycetemcomitans in gingival tissue of patients with periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2018
A relationship between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontitis has been suggested from findings that individuals with RA are prone to have advanced periodontitis and vice versa. In search of possible common pathogenetic features of these two diseases,
