The lung is more than an organ of gas exchange: immunocompetency, platelets and implications for drug discovery

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract The lungs have for a long time been recognised as having pharmacological significance as a specific organ to modulate the pharmacokinetics of endogenous substances needed to maintain homeostasis. The lungs are therefore the site of action of certain drugs that act on these homeostatic processes, resulting in systemic effects on the ...

Risk of Severe Hypoglycemia Associated With Concomitant Use of Sulfonylureas and Amiodarone

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims To evaluate whether initiation of amiodarone while receiving sulfonylurea is associated with an increased risk of severe hypoglycemia compared with the initiation of other antiarrhythmic agents (flecainide, sotalol, or propafenone) while receiving sulfonylurea. Materials and Methods We conducted a population‐based cohort study using South

ALOX15 links lipid metabolism to receptor trafficking in platelet activation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This schematic summarizes known and newly identified mechanisms of thrombin‐mediated platelet activation. In addition to classical thrombin‐induced PAR4 signaling pathways, thrombin activates an ALOX15–HETE–PKCθ–NMT1 signaling cascade that promotes protein myristoylation, facilitates receptor trafficking, and enhances PAR4 surface expression on ...

Testing for Non‐Severe Heritable Platelet Function Disorders

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heritable platelet function disorders (HPFD) are a diverse group of bleeding disorders characterised by a primary qualitative defect in platelet function rather than platelet number. HPFD may be broadly categorised according to the severity of bleeding, with Glanzmann thrombasthenia and Bernard Soulier syndrome classically considered severe ...

Do the treatment selection factors emphasized in clinical guidelines—Chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, and heart failure—contribute to the risk of urinary tract infections during the administration of sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors?

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction Sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2Is) are recommended in Japan for patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD), heart failure (HF), or chronic kidney disease (CKD) due to their organ‐protective effects, leading to increased use in high‐risk populations.

Cardiovascular preventive role of thiazolidinedione in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Among patients with type 2 diabetes undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, thiazolidinedione use was independently associated with a significantly reduced risk of a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, and all‐cause death, notably without an increased risk of admission for heart failure. ABSTRACT Background Thiazolidinediones (TZD) are a

Is Routine Interruption of Direct Oral Anticoagulants Necessary during Colorectal Endoscopic Mucosal Resection and Hot Snare Polypectomy? A Multicenter Propensity‐Matched Study

open access: yesJournal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Colorectal endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and hot snare polypectomy (HSP) are high‐bleeding‐risk endoscopic procedures, and most clinical guidelines recommend stopping direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) temporarily or switching to heparin‐bridging therapy (HBT). However, existing evidence is largely derived from cohorts

CX3CR1 Modulates Migration of Resident Microglia Towards Cortical Laser‐Induced Lesions

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 10, October 2026.
CX3CR1 deficiency promotes microglial migration toward CNS injury. Proteomic profiling reveals altered RHO‐mediated cytoskeletal signaling, while in vivo two‐photon imaging demonstrates increased process extension, velocity, and accumulation of Cx3cr1‐deficient microglia at lesion sites. ABSTRACT Microglia are innate immune cells of the central nervous

Platelet function in patients undergoing major non‐cardiac vascular surgery (PLUGS): a prospective cohort study*

open access: yesAnaesthesia, Volume 81, Issue 9, Page 1236-1244, September 2026.
Summary Introduction Patients who require major vascular surgery often receive antiplatelet therapy for primary or secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. Clopidogrel resistance and variability in platelet recovery after drug discontinuation pose clinical challenges, particularly for regional anaesthesia and blood management.

Real-time platelet P2Y12 receptor occupancy as a promising pharmacodynamics biomarker for bridging the gap between PK/PD of clopidogrel therapy

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B
Clopidogrel effectively inhibits platelet aggregation in response to ADP by irreversibly binding to the platelet P2Y12 receptor through its active metabolite. However, the observed discrepancies between the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD)
