Discovery of (S)-3′-hydroxyblebbistatin and (S)-3′-aminoblebbistatin : polar myosin II inhibitors with superior research tool properties [PDF]
In search of myosin II inhibitors with superior research tool properties, a chemical optimization campaign of the blebbistatin scaffold was conducted in this paper. (S)-Blebbistatin is the best known small-molecule inhibitor of myosin II ATPase activity.

Tuberculous pericarditis is a common type of pericarditis, but it is difficult to be diagnosed. The application of combined transesophageal echocardiography, contrast echocardiography, and CT multimodal imaging provides sufficient clinical diagnosis basis and guidance for distinguishing encapsulated pericardial effusion or mass.

19F NMR Relaxometry and Diffusometry for Measuring Cargo Molecule Dynamics in GelMA Hydrogels
In this research, fluorine drug dynamics in GelMA hydrogels are measured through fluorine‐19 nuclear magnetic resonance (19F NMR) relaxometry and diffusometry. By combining the Solomon–Bloembergen equations and the Stokes–Einstein–Debye relationship, the microscopic dynamic information includes in situ interaction between drugs and polymer networks ...

Consumption of antibiotics at St Luke’s Hospital : a critical factor behind the local prevalence of antimicrobial resistance? [PDF]
The intensity of antibiotic use in hospital settings is recognised as possibly the most important factor for the selection of antimicrobial resistance. Hospitals are therefore being encouraged to undertake surveillance and benchmarking of antimicrobial ...

ABSTRACT Photoremovable protecting groups (PPGs) offer a straightforward solution for the temporary inactivation of biologically active substrates and their subsequent controlled release by light irradiation. Their relatively easy design and mode of application have made them useful tools for studying dynamic biological processes in vitro and in vivo ...

Use of Quinolones for the Treatment of Osteomyelitis and Septic Arthritis [PDF]
The low minimal inhibitory concentrations and minimal bactericidal concentrations of the quinolones for most pathogenic gram-negative and many gram-positive organisms, the ease of their administration, and their good oral absorption make them good ...
