Pharmacokinetic profiling of imatinib in relation to CYP3A4 activity in leukaemia patients

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Imatinib pharmacokinetics exhibit large interindividual variability because of differences in CYP3A4 activity—the main imatinib‐metabolizing enzyme. While therapeutic drug monitoring is effective, it requires steady‐state conditions and frequent sampling.

Lost and found in translation: the value of the human imiquimod model

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Topical imiquimod (IMQ), a Toll‐like receptor (TLR) 7 agonist, induces transient cutaneous inflammation and is widely used in preclinical research as a ‘psoriasis‐like’ mouse model. However, accumulating evidence indicates substantial divergence between IMQ‐driven biology and human plaque psoriasis pathogenesis.

Impact of cumulative glucocorticoid exposure on vancomycin clearance in hospitalized children: A retrospective cohort study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Prior glucocorticoid exposure is associated with modestly increased vancomycin clearance in hospitalized children, partly mediated by renal function and inflammation and may contribute to subtherapeutic early drug exposure. Abstract Introduction Augmented renal clearance (ARC) can lead to subtherapeutic vancomycin exposure in children.

Glucocorticoid exposure and initiation of SSRIs among patients with rheumatoid arthritis: A nested case–control study in UK primary care

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim The immune system might affect the development of anxiety disorders, though mechanisms remain unclear. This nested case–control study investigates whether use of glucocorticoids, potent immunosuppressants, is associated with SSRI initiation (a proxy for pharmacologically treated mental disorders, predominantly depression and/or anxiety).

Twenty years of inhaler therapy: A nationwide drug utilization study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This study aimed to map nationwide trends and prescribing patterns in inhaler use from 2004 to 2023. In light of evolving clinical guidelines and attention to the environmental impact of inhalers within recent years, we also examined variation in prescribing behaviour and patient‐level treatment choices. Methods Using nationwide health registries,

Analyses of cytokine gene expression and fecal microbiota in a patient with Cronkhite‐Canada syndrome successfully treated with prednisolone

DEN Open
Although prednisolone treatment is effective in Cronkhite–Canada syndrome (CCS), its mechanisms of action are poorly understood. We performed analyses of cytokine expression and fecal microbiota in a patient with the concurrent occurrence of CCS and ...

Targeting neutrophil extracellular traps in metabolic and immune niche: Nanomaterials for diabetes tissue regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The effects of NETs on regeneration of various diabetic tissues, and strategies targeting NETs for diabetes tissue regeneration. In the diabetic environment, NETs undergo complex metabolic and immune reprogramming, leading to dynamic changes in antibacterial and proinflammatory functions, and affecting regeneration of multiple systemic tissues.
