Chidamide, a novel benzamide-type histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, exerts antitumor effects on several types of cancer. However, the role of Chidamide in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) remains elusive. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the effects of Chidamide on CML cell proliferation and explore its underlying mechanism.

Cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 assay, cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry and the expression of related proteins was evaluated by western blot analysis. The potential mechanisms were systematically explored by the network-based pharmacological methods, including Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses.

The results revealed that Chidamide inhibited the proliferation of K562 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In addition, Chidamide blocked cells in the G0/G1 phase via downregulating cyclin‑dependent kinase 4, and induced apoptosis via upregulating Bax and downregulatinent of CML.Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a novel coronavirus which is currently responsible for the global pandemic since December 2019. This class of coronavirus has affected 217 countries around the world. Most of the countries have taken some non-remedial preventive actions like country lockdown, work from home, travel bans, and the most significant one is social isolation. Pharmacists, doctors, nurses, technologists, and all other healthcare professionals are playing a pivotal role during this pandemic. Unluckily, there is no specific drug that can treat patients who are confirmed with COVID-19, though favipiravir and remdesivir have appeared as favorable antiviral drugs. Some vaccines have already developed, and vaccination has started worldwide. Different nanotechnologies are in the developing stage in many countries for preventing SARS-COV-2 and treating COVID-19 conditions. In this article, we review the COVID-19 pandemic situation as well as the nanotechnology-based approaches and investigational therapeutics against COVID-19.Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a growing health issue around the world, is defined as the presence of steatosis in the liver without any other detectable byproducts such as alcohol consumption which includes a wide spectrum of pathologies, such as steatohepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. A growing body of evidence indicates that the reduction in the 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity, which could be activated by the consumption of the drugs, hormones, cytokines, and dietary restriction, is related to some metabolic disorders such as obesity, diabetes, PCOS, and NAFLD. Vanillic acid (VA), as an anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, anti-angiogenic and anti-metastatic factor, has protective effects on the liver as in two animal models of liver damage. It reduces serum levels of transaminases, inflammatory cytokines, and the accumulation of collagen in the liver and prevents liver fibrosis. Besides, it decreases body and adipose tissue weight in a mice model of obesity and, similar to the liver tissue, diminishes adipogenesis through the activation of AMPK. It has been reported that VA can target almost all of the metabolic abnormalities of NAFLD, such as hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and hepatic injury, at least partially through the activation of AMPK. Therefore, in this review, we will discuss the possible and hypothetical roles of VA in NAFLD, with a special focus on AMPK.

The evaluation of long-term effectiveness and tolerability of Aripiprazole Once-monthly (AOM) is yet scarce, and severely ill patients have not been specifically studied.

The aim of the study was to explore the long-term adherence, effectiveness and tolerability of AOM in the treatment of patients with severe (Clinical Global Impression-Severity, CGI-S ≥ 5) schizophrenia, and whether high-dose therapy may benefit patients inadequately controlled on standard doses.

Six-year mirror-image study, with 36-month prospective follow-up, was conducted on patients with severe schizophrenia who underwent treatment with AOM (n = 60). Assessment included the CGI-S, the WHO Disability Assessment Schedule (WHO-DAS), the Medication Adherence Report Scale (MARS), laboratory tests, and weight and adverse effects reported. Reasons for treatment discontinuation, hospital admissions and psychiatric medications in the previous three years and during the follow-up were recorded.

The average dose was found to be 780 (120) mgpitalizations and clinical severity and disability, although a considerable percentage of them needed higher doses than labeled.A large percentage of people are being exposed to mortality due to cardiovascular diseases. Convention approaches have not provided satisfactory outcomes in the management of these diseases. To overcome the limitations of conventional approaches, nanomaterials like nanoparticles, nanotubes, micelles, lipid based nanocarriers, dendrimers, carbon based nano-formulations represent the new aspect of diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The unique inherent properties of the nanomaterials are the major reasons for their rapidly growing demand in the field of medicine. Profound knowledge in the field of nanotechnology and biomedicine is needed for the notable translation of nanomaterials into theranostic cardiovascular applications. In this review, the authors have summarized different nanomaterials which are being extensively used to diagnose and treat the diseases such as coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, atherosclerosis, stroke and thrombosis.

Polypharmacy and potentially inappropriate medications(that is, those associated with an unfavorable risk-benefit ratio) are commonconcerns in the context of elderly patients treated in primary care asthey may increase the risk of morbidity and mortality, as well as healthcarecosts. Thapsigargin manufacturer Several studies have assessed the impact of pharmacist- ledsystematic reviews with respect to prescription appropriateness, healthoutcomes and/or costs. However, no cluster-randomized controlled trialhas been identified that provides an overall assessment of these variables.The objective is to determine the effectiveness of a pharmacist- led systematicmedication review in reducing the mean number and proportion ofpatients on potentially inappropriate medications (primary goal); as wellas in decreasing morbidity and mortality and the cost of medications andthe use of healthcare resources (secondary goals).

An open-label, cluster-randomized controlled trial will beconducted; where primary care physicians will be randomized either toreceive (intervention group) or not to receive pharmacist recommendationsto withdraw potentially inappropriate medications detected through thecombined use of explicit and implicit criteria (control group).
