Cashew Nut Oil Improves Lipid Metabolism and Fat Liver Deposition in High‐Fat Diet‐Fed C57BL/6J Mice
Thirty C57BL/6J mice were fed a high‐fat diet for 12 weeks to induce metabolic changes. They were then switched to diets containing cashew nut oil, soybean oil, or lard for another 12 weeks. Soybean oil reduced blood glucose, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and liver steatosis.

Didanosine determination in diluted alkaline electrolyte by adsorptive stripping voltammetry at the mercury film electrode [PDF]
A stripping method for the determination of didanosine at the submicromolar concentration levels is described. The method is based on controlled adsorptive accumulation of didanosine at thin-film mercury electrode followed by a linear cyclic scan ...

A regioselective synthesis of fused thiazoles was achieved via aza‐Michael cyclization of thiazolidinone derivatives with hydrazines or heteroaryl amines. Density functional theory, local reactivity indices, and molecular electrostatic potential mapping are used to explain selectivity.

First case of hereditary xanthinuria in a Moroccan family
The xanthinuria is a rare hereditary autosomal recessive disease. It is related to xanthine oxidase deficiency also known as xanthine dehydrogenase, an enzyme involved in the metabolism of purine bases.

Advancing Extracellular Vesicle Research: A Review of Systems Biology and Multiomics Perspectives
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound vesicles secreted by various cell types into the extracellular space and play a role in intercellular communication. Their molecular cargo varies depending on the cell of origin and its functional state.

Strong, specific, monodentate G-C base pair recognition by N7-inosine derivatives in the pyrimidine•purine-pyrimidine triple-helical binding motif [PDF]
The nucleoside analogs 7-(2′-deoxy-α-D-ribofuranosyl)hypoxanthine (β7H, 1), 7-(2′-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)hypoxanthine (β7H, 2) and 7-(2′-O-methyl-β-Dribofuranosyl)hypoxanthine (β7HOMe, 3) were prepared and incorporated into triplex forming ...

Reagentless Real‐Time ATP Monitoring with New DNA Aptamers
A new aptamer is discovered via in vitro selection that binds to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) with high affinity (KD = 0.7 µm) and rejects closely related analogs including adenosine diphosphate (ADP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP), and adenosine. A fluorescent molecular beacon based on the aptamer enables continuous analyte monitoring in cell culture ...

Human Umbilical Cord Plasma Metabolomics Uncover Potential Metabolites for Combating Aging
Untargeted metabolomics reveals a unique cord plasma metabolic landscape versus adult. Age‐declining cord‐specific enriched metabolites are identified as antiaging candidates, with a 5‐compound formula validated in proof‐of‐experiments to extend lifespan and healthspan in human cells and C. elegans.

Hypoxanthine-guanine phosophoribosyltransferase (HPRT) deficiency: Lesch-Nyhan syndrome
Deficiency of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) activity is an inborn error of purine metabolism associated with uric acid overproduction and a continuum spectrum of neurological manifestations depending on the degree of the enzymatic
