Metformin reduces hepatic expression of SIRT3, the mitochondrial deacetylase controlling energy metabolism.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Metformin inhibits ATP production in mitochondria and this may be involved in the anti-hyperglycemic effects of the drug. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is a mitochondrial protein deacetylase that regulates the function of the electron transport chain and maintains ...

Biomarker‐Based Prediction of OATP1B1 Activity in Clinical Routine—Investigating Coproporphyrins as Markers for Drug–Drug–Gene Interactions

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Coproporphyrin I (CPI) is an established endogenous biomarker for detecting drug–drug interactions (DDIs) involving the hepatic uptake transporter Organic Anion Transporting Polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1, gene SLCO1B1). While CPI has been extensively studied in healthy volunteers using controlled pre‐ and post‐OATP1B1‐inhibitor sampling, its applicability ...

Buried Interface Engineering via a Bifunctional Guanidino‐Carboxyl Molecular Bridge for Enhanced Performance and Stability in Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
A bifunctional molecular bridge using 4‐guanidinobutanoic acid (GCC) is constructed to comprehensively tailor the buried interface of PSCs. By passivating oxygen vacancies, optimizing energy‐level matching, and regulating perovskite crystallization, this strategy simultaneously boosts the power conversion efficiency to 25.37% (20.01% for 13.4 cm2) and ...
