Taxifolin Attenuates Remote Lung Injury Induced by Hepatic Ischemia–Reperfusion in Rats

Molecules
Background: Hepatic ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury induces systemic oxidative stress and inflammatory responses that may lead to remote lung injury. This study investigated whether taxifolin attenuates hepatic I/R-induced lung damage and examined the ...

Metabolic fate of drugs of abuse and new psychoactive substances: A pilot study on a novel workflow using a zebrafish embryo model combined with human microdosing

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim The aim of this study was to develop a novel workflow to identify human urine biomarkers for drugs of abuse and new psychoactive substances. Metabolites of amphetamine, cocaine, LSD, MDMA, methamphetamine, THC, MDMB‐CHMICA, and MDPPP were first identified in a zebrafish embryo (ZE) metabolism study followed by comparison to most abundant human ...

Tacrolimus exposure during pregnancy in kidney and liver transplantation recipients: A comparison between whole blood and plasma concentration‐to‐dose ratios

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Tacrolimus monitoring is generally performed in whole blood (WB). Most (>85%) of circulating tacrolimus is bound to red blood cells. During pregnancy, WB monitoring might be suboptimal because of physiological changes including increased plasma volume and decreased haematocrit.
