Population Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Paracetamol in Malaysian Patients With Plasmodium knowlesi Malaria. [PDF]

CPT Pharmacometrics Syst Pharmacol
ABSTRACT Paracetamol may improve renal function in patients with severe Plasmodium knowlesi malaria, particularly in those with acute kidney injury and hemolysis, via inhibition of cell‐free hemoglobin mediated oxidative kidney damage. We developed a population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model to assess effects of paracetamol on creatinine,

Identification of a Shiga toxin A‐derived peptide internalized into Gb3 receptor‐bearing cells via interaction with the Shiga toxin B subunit

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

A yeast model of 5‐oxoproline accumulation reveals a general toleration to 5‐oxoproline

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using a yeast model, we show that even high accumulation of 5‐oxoproline causes only mild cellular stress and does not trigger oxidative stress. Instead, cells adapt by activating efflux pumps and diverse protective pathways, suggesting that previously proposed harmful effects of 5‐oxoproline may arise from indirect metabolic imbalances rather than the

Complications Associated with Continuous RRT

Kidney360, 2022
Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a form of renal replacement therapy that is used in modern intensive care units (ICUs) to help manage acute kidney injury (AKI), end stage kidney disease (ESKD), poisonings, and some electrolyte disorders. CRRT has transformed the care of patients in the ICU over the past several decades.
