An analysis of common ethical justifications for compassionate use programs for experimental drugs [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: When a new intervention or drug is developed, this has to pass through various phases of clinical testing before it achieves market approval, which can take many years.

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

Model-based exploration of the rationality of off-label use of cetirizine in Chinese pediatric patients: a prospective cohort study

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Aims: Cetirizine is frequently administered at an increased dosage in clinical practice and recommended by several guidelines. Nonetheless, the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and real-world safety data remain insufficient in the Chinese pediatric ...

Real‐time assay of ribonucleotide reductase activity with a fluorescent RNA aptamer

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) synthesize DNA building blocks de novo, making them crucial in DNA replication and drug targeting. FLARE introduces the first single‐tube real‐time coupled RNR assay, which enables isothermal tracking of RNR activity at nanomolar enzyme levels and allows the reconstruction of allosteric regulatory patterns and rapid ...

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Monographs on drugs which are frequently analyzed in therapeutic drug monitoring [PDF]

, 2017
In addition to the monographs which have been published in the past 4 years by the working group "Drug Monitoring” of the Swiss Society of Clinical Chemistry (SSCC) [1-4], new monographs have been written.

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...
