Advances in Therapy for Hormone Receptor (HR)-Positive, Human Epidermal Growth Factor 2 (HER2)-Negative Advanced Breast Cancer Patients Who Have Experienced Progression After Treatment with CDK4/6 Inhibitors

postconditioning is a simple and safe strategy for cardioprotection and infarct size limitation. our previous study showed that oxytocin (ot) exerts postconditioning effect on ischemic/reperfused isolated rat heart. the aim of this study was to investigate the involvement of ot receptor, mitochondrial atp-sensitive potassium channel (mkatp), nitric oxide (no) and cyclooxygenase (cox) pathways i...

Kaolinite clay found its application in medicine, in toothpaste, in cosmetic and as a food additive. Recently, a specially formulated spray is used in fruit and vegetable production to repel the insects and prevent sunburn. Kaolin-SO3H nanoparticles were prepared via reaction of kaolin and chlorosulfonic acid and characterized by FT-IR, XRD, FESEM, TEM, XRF, EDS, BET and TGA. 2-Substituted benz...

Activated lymphocytes synthesize and secrete substantial amounts of the beta-chemokines macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1 alpha/CCL3 and MIP-1 beta/CCL4, both of which inhibit infection of cells with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). The native form of MIP-1 beta secreted by activated human peripheral blood lymphocytes (MIP-1 beta(3-69)) lacks the two NH(2)-terminal amino acids...

one of the most important targets in alzheimer disease is beta site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme-1 (bace-1). it is a membrane associated protein and is one of the main enzymes responsible for amyloid β (aβ) production. up to now, a considerable number of peptidic and non-peptidic inhibitors of bace-1 have been developed. recently, small molecule bace-1 inhibitors have attracted the...

CCR5 is a chemokine receptor expressed by T cells and macrophages, which also functions as the principal coreceptor for macrophage (M)-tropic strains of HIV-1. To understand the molecular basis of the binding of chemokines and HIV-1 to CCR5, we developed a number of mAbs that inhibit the various interactions of CCR5, and mapped the binding sites of these mAbs using a panel of CCR5/CCR2b chimera...

in this paper, a general introduction is given, presenting the overactive bladder syndrome (oab) and its impact on the quality of life and economical burden in patients affected. moreover, the anatomy, physiology and histology of the lower urinary tract are discussed, followed by a brief overview on the possible role of prostaglandin (pg) and phosphodiesterase type 5 (pde5) in the urinary bladd...
