Paternal use of metformin and risk of major congenital malformations: A meta‐analysis of 4 studies

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Metformin is the first‐line drug for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes. In 2022, a Danish registry‐based study reported a 40% increased risk of major congenital malformations following paternal exposure during spermatogenesis. This raised widespread concern about the use of metformin in males of reproductive age.

Combination treatment with recombinant methioninase enables temozolomide to arrest a BRAF V600E melanoma in a patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) mouse model. [PDF]

, 2017
An excessive requirement for methionine termed methionine dependence, appears to be a general metabolic defect in cancer. We have previously shown that cancer-cell growth can be selectively arrested by methionine deprivation such as with recombinant ...

Synthesizing polyethersulphone membranes with hybrid iron/nickel nanoparticles for dyes removal: An efficient biogenesis approach

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Industrial wastewater contamination by azo dyes poses a significant environmental challenge. This study reports the green synthesis of bimetallic iron/nickel (Fe/Ni) nanoparticles using moringa leaf extract, which acted as both a reducing and capping agent, and their incorporation into polyethersulphone (PES) membranes to produce eco‐friendly ...

Pediatric Developmental Safety Assessment: Are We Ready for the Next Thalidomide?

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Pediatric drug development has achieved remarkable success in the last 20 years with over 1,000 products studied in pediatric patients. This success has been driven in part by an increased understanding of pediatric disease processes. The aspect that has been largely overlooked is the potential adverse effect of new drugs on pediatric developmental ...
