Metformin enhances external urethral sphincter integrity and restores continence via AMPK activation in a rat model of stress urinary incontinence

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The pathogenesis of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is intimately associated with injury to the external urethral sphincter (EUS). In this study, we established an SUI model induced by double vaginal distension and demonstrated that metformin treatment activated the AMPK signaling in the EUS tissue.

Three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis of diaphragmatic dome motion in COPD patients

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Diaphragmatic dysfunction is a hallmark of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), especially in emphysema, where hyperinflation alters diaphragm geometry and impairs inspiratory mechanics. However, quantitative three‐dimensional (3D) assessments of diaphragmatic dome shape and motion across COPD phenotypes are limited.

PEPITEM Regulates the Synovial Microenvironment During Immune‐Mediated Inflammatory Arthritis to Limit Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Here we investigate the status of the adiponectin–PEPITEM pathway in early, treatment naive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and the therapeutic efficacy of PEPITEM administration in preclinical models. Methods Peripheral blood was isolated from patients with clinical suspect arthralgia and suspected inflammatory ...

Early clinical pharmacology evaluation of the novel anti‐inflammatory macrolide, glasmacinal (EP395): tolerability, pharmacokinetics and drug interactions

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims This work assessed the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of glasmacinal (EP395, an oral anti‐inflammatory macrolide with negligible antimicrobial activity in development for COPD treatment) in two healthy participant trials: ‘first‐in‐human’ (FIH) and ‘drug–drug‐interaction’ (DDI).
