Cells, Vol. 8, Pages 1372: Wnt-3a Induces Cytokine Release in Human Mast Cells Cells doi: 10.3390/cells8111372 Authors: Julia Tebroke Joris E. Lieverse Jesper Säfholm Gunnar Schulte Gunnar Nilsson Elin Rönnberg Mast cells are well known for their detrimental effects in allergies and asthma, and Wnt signaling has recently been implicated in asthma and other airway diseases. However, it is not known if or how Wnts affect human mast cells. Since Wnt expression is elevated...

Oncology drug development is among the most challenging of any therapeutic area, with first‐in‐human trials expected to deliver information on both safety and activity. Until recently, therapeutic approaches in oncology focused on cytotoxic chemotherapy agents, ruling out even the possibility of enrolling normal healthy volunteers (NHVs) in clinical trials due to safety considerations. The emergence of noncytotoxic modalities, including molecularly targeted agents with more favorable safety profiles,...
Abstract The antiplatelet agent clopidogrel, a prodrug that requires bioactivation through the cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) enzyme, is commonly prescribed post‐percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Genetic variation in CYP2C19 contributes to individual variability in clopidogrel response, and can lead to adverse cardiovascular events. Incorporating CYP2C19 testing during routine clinical care helps identify high‐risk patients, and provides the opportunity for pharmacotherapeutic interventions...
Abstract The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity of BOS161721, a humanized immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) triple mutation (YTE) (M252Y/S254T/T256E) monoclonal antibody that inhibits interleukin‐21 (IL‐21) bioactivity. This randomized, single‐center, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study randomized healthy volunteers 3:1 to single ascending intravenous and subcutaneous doses of BOS161721 (range: 1‐240 mg) or placebo. BOS161721...
Abstract Population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling (via NONMEM) was used to describe longitudinal exposure‐response relationships for total cariprazine (sum of cariprazine and its major active metabolites) in 2558 patients with schizophrenia or bipolar mania. Drug exposure metrics were explored for potential relationships with efficacy and safety endpoints. Total cariprazine exposures were significantly related to reductions in PANSS or YMRS total scores in schizophrenia or bipolar mania,...
Abstract Zanamivir is a potent and highly selective inhibitor of influenza neuraminidase where the inhibition of this enzyme prevents the virus from infecting other cells and specifically prevents release of the new virion from the host cell membrane. It is available as an oral powder for inhalation and tintravenous formulations. The current population pharmacokinetic model based on data from eight studies of subjects treated with the intravenous formulation (125 healthy adults and 533 hospitalized...
Abstract The oral bioavailability of ibrutinib is low and variable, mainly due to extensive first‐pass metabolism by CYP3A4. The unpredictable exposure can compromise its safe and effective dosing. We examined the impact of itraconazole on ibrutinib pharmacokinetics. In a randomized crossover study, 11 healthy subjects were administered itraconazole 200 mg or placebo twice on day 1, and once on days 2‐4. On day 3, 1 hour after itraconazole (placebo) and breakfast, ibrutinib (140 mg during placebo;...

Abstract Background Antipsychotic polypharmacy (“polypharmacy”) is the concurrent prescribing of more than one antipsychotic. It is widely practised, as reported in the literature, and is known to increase the risk of adverse outcomes for patients. Objective To quantify the prevalence and magnitude of polypharmacy in patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder and identify potential factors contributing to this practice. Setting Armadale Mental Health Service (a public...
Abstract Background: In the United States, emergency medicine clinical pharmacists have become more common over the last several decades. Despite being a vital component of the emergency department interdisciplinary team, there is very limited information published regarding the direct impact emergency medicine clinical pharmacists have on other emergency department-based professions. Objective: To determine if the addition of an emergency medicine clinical pharmacist improves...

Abstract Background The roles of Allied Health Care Professionals (AHPs) in Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) are wide ranging but not clearly defined. Inter‐regional variability in practice results from a lack of standardisation in approaches to the Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) make‐up and structure. Traditionally the follow‐up of HNC patients is clinician led with multiple scheduled follow‐up appointments. The increasing population of HNC patients provides logistical, monetary and efficiency challenges....

Abstract Background Recently, sclerostin, a bone-derived protein, has been shown to play a key role in atherosclerosis progression. However, few studies have investigated the influence of sclerostin on cardiovascular disease prognosis. We investigated the relationship between serum sclerostin levels and adverse outcomes in elderly patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) who were undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention...

Abstract Purpose Pilocytic (PA) and pilomyxoid astrocytomas (PMA) are related low-grade tumors which occur predominantly in children. PMAs have a predilection for a supratentorial location in younger children with worse outcomes. However, the two have similar imaging characteristics. Quantitative MR sequences such as dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion and diffusion (DWI) were assessed for significant differences between the...
Abstract This document sets out standards for training in Interventional Neuroradiology (INR) in Europe. These standards have been developed by a working group of the European Society of Neuroradiology (ESNR) and the European Society of Minimally Invasive Neurological Therapy (ESMINT) on the initiative and under the umbrella of the Division of Neuroradiology/Section of Radiology of the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS).

Abstract Originally Lipid droplets (LDs) were considered as being droplets for lipid storage only. Increasing evidence, however, demonstrates that LDs fulfill a pleiotropy of additional functions. Among them is the modulation of protein as well as lipid homeostasis. Under unfavorable pro-oxidative conditions, proteins can form aggregates which may exceed the overall proteolytic capacity of the proteasome. After stress termination LDs can adjust and support the removal of these...
