Drug Discovery Applications of Nitroso (Hetero)Arene Derivatives
Nitroso (hetero)aromatic compounds are bioactive molecules with antiviral, anticancer, neuroprotective, and antimicrobial properties. This review highlights their mechanisms of action—oxidative stress, DNA damage, and enzyme inhibition—alongside synthesis, structure–activity relationships, and toxicity challenges, offering insight into their ...

A new common functional coding variant at the DDC gene change renal enzyme activity and modify renal dopamine function. [PDF]
The intra-renal dopamine (DA) system is highly expressed in the proximal tubule and contributes to Na+ and blood pressure homeostasis, as well as to the development of nephropathy.

Antiangiogenic therapy with bevacizumab improves outcomes in ovarian cancer but induces hypertension, leading to major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). While calcium channel blockers (CCBs) and angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) are recommended for managing bevacizumab‐associated hypertension, their impacts on cancer progression and ...

Sex differences in the metabolic effects of the renin-angiotensin system
Obesity is a global epidemic that greatly increases risk for developing cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes. Sex differences in the obese phenotype are well established in experimental animal models and clinical populations.

Hydralazine is a vasodilator typically used in the treatment of resistant hypertension and heart failure. N‐acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) catalyzes the metabolism of hydralazine into inactive metabolites. NAT2 poor metabolizers (historically referred to as “slow acetylators”) are predicted to have increased plasma hydralazine concentrations compared with ...

Data science approaches have been increasingly implemented in healthcare big data to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of drugs. Association discovery is a data mining approach that finds potentially associated elements in high‐dimensional data. We present a novel implementation of the association discovery approach in longitudinal healthcare data ...

Inhibition of Trophoblast-Induced Spiral Artery Remodeling Reduces Placental Perfusion in Rat Pregnancy. [PDF]
Rats harboring the human angiotensinogen and human renin genes develop preeclamptic features in pregnancy. The preeclamptic rats exhibit a deeper trophoblast invasion associated with a reduced resistance index by uterine Doppler.

The Prevalence and Implications of Polypharmacy in Individuals With Type 1 Diabetes
Polypharmacy is increasingly recognized as a relevant issue in diabetes care, but its prevalence and clinical relevance in individuals with type 1 diabetes remain underexplored. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of polypharmacy and to identify associated clinical and psychological factors. Participants were recruited from a tertiary diabetes
