Delayed-released dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is an oral disease-modifying therapy (DMT) approved for treating patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). This post-marketing study aimed at collecting real-world data on the safety, effectiveness, and tolerability of DMF in patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS).

1-year post-marketing survey of patients prescribed DMF followed-up quarterly in hospital setting and private neurological practices in Switzerland from January 2015 to January 2018. Data on relapses, Expanded disability status scale (EDSS) score change, safety, tolerability, treatment adherence as judged by the treating neurologist and satisfaction were collected. Patients could refer to a patient support program.

Of the 158 patients, 67 (42.4%) were treatment naïve, 91 (57.6%) switched from a prior MS DMT to DMF, 131 (82.9%) were treatment adherent, 108 (68.4%) used the support program, and 45 (28.5%) discontinued the therapy. Insufficient tolerability and insufficient effectiveness were the main reasons for discontinuation. 134 (84.8%) patients remained relapse free, 97 (61.4%) had stable or decreased EDSS score after 12 months. 74 (46.8%) patients reported adverse events; of these, 28 (17.7%) discontinued DMF treatment. Physicians and patients rated treatment satisfaction similarly (median score 8.0 of 10).

The results obtained from this real-world observation are consistent with the efficacy and safety findings reported in pivotal and larger observational trials evaluating DMF treatment. Most side effects were experienced early after therapy initiation reflecting the timing of therapy discontinuation.

However, not all ADAM17 substrates have been identified. Here, we used cell surface protein-specific labeling and proteomic approaches to detect and identify ADAM17 substrates. HeLa cell surface proteins were labeled with a fluorescent dye and cultured with or without TAPI-2, an ADAM17 inhibitor. Labeled proteins released into the culture medium were detected by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE). Protein spots showing decreased intensity in response to TAPI-2 were selected as substrates of ADAM17 or their binding proteins, and identified by mass spectrometry. ADAM17 knockdown was preformed to examine the behavior of identified proteins. Of 347 proteins detected by 2DE, 49 showed lower intensity in TAPI-2 (+) than in TAPI-2 (-) samples (p 50% decreased intensity identified clusterin as a novel ADAM17 substrate, in addition to known substrates such as desmoglein-2. Western blot analysis showed that ADAM17 knockdown decreased the levels of clusterin fragments cleaved and released from the cell surface. The results identified clusterin as a novel ADAM17 substrate. The method used to identify clusterin could be used to identify the substrates of other sheddases involved in ectodomain shedding.The study assessed the levels of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in eight brands (A-H) of regularly consumed maize-based complementary/breakfast foods in Nigeria. We also evaluated the dietary exposure of infants and young children to the detected OCPs. The OCP residues were quantified using GC-ECD. A total of 10 OCPs residues (β-HCH, δ- HCH, heptachlor, endosulfan sulfate, aldrin, endrin, dieldrin, p,p'-DDE, p,p'-DDT and methoxychlor) were detected. Total OCPs burden was highest in brands F, D, and G with mean concentrations of 45.98 mg kg-1, 28.54 mg kg-1 and 21.87 mg kg-1, respectively and the lowest burdens in brands H (1.72 mg kg-1) and A (6.61 mg kg-1). Hazard index (HI) for all the age categories were >1 and all the 6 carcinogens (β-HCH, heptachlor, aldrin, dieldrin, p,p'-DDE, and p,p'-DDT) identified had cancer risk index range of 5.43 × 10-4 to 2.05 × 10-6 which were above acceptable risk. These results indicated the possibility of both systemic and cancer risks to infants and children consumers of the foods. Food brands manufacturers need to carry out regular pesticide residues analysis of raw materials especially maize prior to the production in order to ensure food safety and quality.Food thickeners are widely used to aid the oral administration of medications to patients with dysphagia. Powder-type food thickeners are used to modulate the viscosity of therapeutic solutions depending on the swallowing capacity of patients. Food thickeners inhibit or delay the disintegration of some medications, resulting in reduced pharmaceutical effects of the medications and/or their excretion in the stool. A short immersion time (within 1 min) is important to overcome these problems. Although thickened drinks are commercially available, their use as vehicles for medications is not well understood. In this study, we evaluated the effects of thickened drinks on the disintegration time of therapeutic tablets. Furthermore, we compared the thickened drinks with powder-type xanthan gum-based food thickeners. Forty tablets were used, including naked tablets, film-coated tablets, orally disintegrating tablets, enteric-coated tablets, and sugar-coated tablets. For the disintegration test, the tablets were immersed in thickened drinks or food thickeners for 1 min. The changes in the disintegration time of the 40 tablets immersed in the thickened drinks were comparable with those in food thickeners. The disintegration time of several tablets was shorter or unchanged after immersion in the thickened drinks. The disintegration time of rapidly disintegrating tablets tended to increase when immersed in thickened drinks, but it was less than 2 min for the majority of the tablets. These results demonstrate that thickened drinks, similar to food thickeners, could help administer medications to patients. Overall, our study provides valuable information for pharmacists and clinicians to decide the most suitable way to deliver medications to patients with dysphagia.Phytochemical investigations from the flower and leaf extracts of D. cochinchinensis resulted in the isolation and structural elucidation of five new polyoxygenated seco-cyclohexene derivatives, desmoscochinchinenes A-E (1-5), together with 11 known compounds (6-16). The structures on the new compounds were elucidated from their spectroscopic data, including UV, IR, NMR, and HRESITOFMS. Some of the isolated compounds were evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activities. Chrysin (9), pinocembrin 7-O-benzoate (12), and (-)-(5R)-desmoscochinoxepinone B (16) inhibited α-glucosidase better than the standard control (acarbose, IC50 = 83.5 μM) with IC50 values of 5.7, 33.8, 53.3 μM, respectively.This study explains the vibration and interaction of p-xylene and effect of three elements (fluorine, chlorine and bromine) of the halogen family substitution on it. Basic chemistry of four, compounds p-xylene (PX); 3,6-diflouro-p-xylene (DFPX); 3,6-dichloro-p-xylene (DCPX) and 3,6-dibromo-p-xylene (DBPX) has been explained extensively using theoretical approach. Vibrational energy distribution analysis (VEDA) software was used to study the potential energy distribution (PED) analysis, bond length, bond angles and dihedral angles of PX, DFPX, DCPX, DBPX after optimization with GAUSSIAN 09 software. The trend in chemical reactivity and stability of the studied compounds was observed to show increasing stability and decreasing reactivity moving from DBPX, DCPX, DFPX to PX and this was obtained from the calculated highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) values. Our results show that PX is the best electron donor (best nucleophile) while DBPX is the best electron acceptor (the best electrophile). We also observed that the substituted halogen increases the value of the bond angles but the effect is reduced as the size of the halogen increases. The maximum intensity and the frequency value for the maximum intensity of the different compounds was determined using the VEDA 04 software. From our natural bond orbital (NBO) 7.0 program analysis, the studied compounds are said to show biological activities as well as the intramolecular hyperconjugative interactions responsible for stabilizing the compounds. The NBO results also revealed that the non-bonding interaction existing between the lone pair electron on the halogen atoms and the aromatic ring increases the stability of the halogen substituted para-xylene molecules. Multiwfn A Multifunctional Wavefunction Analyzer was used for the spectroscopic plots.A selective and sensitive electrochemical method based on glassy carbon electrode modified with poly(malachite green) was developed for determination of tetracycline in pharmaceutical capsule formulation. Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy using [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- as a probe were used to characterize the potentiodynamiclly deposited poly(malachite green) on the surface of glassy carbon electrode. In contrast to the unmodified glassy carbon electrode, the fabricated poly(malachite green) modified glassy carbon electrode showed catalytic property towards two steps irreversible oxidation of tetracycline. Better correlation of the oxidative peak current with the scan rate than with the square root of scan rate supported by slope of 0.60 for log(current) versus log(scan rate) indicated that the oxidation reaction of tetracycline at the modified electrode was predominantly controlled by electron exchange step at the solution polymer interface. Under optimized solution pH, and accumulation parameters, the square wave adsorptive anodic striping peak current response of the modified electrode showed linear dependence on concentration of tetracycline in the range 5-100 μM with determination coefficient, method detection limit, and quantification limit of 0.99588, 1.6 μM, and 5.3 μM, respectively. The tetracycline content of a capsule sample claimed to have 250 mg/capsule was found to be 250.53 mg/capsule with 0.21% deviation. Excellent spike recovery result of 99.80%, and 98.49-99.78% recovery of tetracycline in capsule sample in the presence of 50-200% of UA, AA, and ampicillin validated the applicability of the method for determination of tetracycline in real samples with complex matrix like capsule formulations.In chemical graph theory, forgotten topological index or F-index plays a crucial role to collect information about the properties of chemical compounds. limertinib order The kth generalized transformation graphs of a molecular graph preserve the entire information on the molecular topology contained in the relevant molecular graph. In this paper, some exact expressions of the F-index and its co-index for the kth generalized transformation graphs are obtained. Also, the Zagreb polynomials, Zagreb co-polynomials and their complements are computed.The purpose of this research is to demonstrate through a techno-economic assessment that aniline can be industrially produced using a profitable and inherently safer process than the ones currently employed. The aniline production process was designed using process simulation software. From this, the mass and energy balances were determined, the equipment sizing was performed and the net present value (NPV) was calculated to be USD 93.5 million. Additionally, a heat integration analysis was carried out in order to improve process profitability, obtaining a new NPV of USD 97.5 million. The economic sensitivity analysis showed that the process could withstand fixed capital investment changes of up to +89%, weighted average cost of capital changes between 16-24% and a decrease in cyclohexylamine demand of up to 44%. The conceptual design is still profitable when aniline price is varied in a range of 1224-1840 $/t and phenol cost in a range of 815-1178 $/t.
