Dose-dependent modulation of hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes by tenvermectin: implications for medication safety and combination therapy by Jianping Liang, Jianping Liang, Can Cui, Wenge Ren, Linglin Li, Linyi Lv, Xianhui Huang, Xianhui Huang, Xiangmei Li, Xiangmei Li

“…However, uncertainty about its interaction with cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) has raised concerns about potential therapeutic failure, increased risk of toxicity, dangerous drug combinations, and prolonged discontinuation periods.MethodTo address these critical safety concerns, we conducted a systematic comparative study using a highly selective and quantitatively accurate substrate conversion assay to assess and compare the effects of TVM and ivermectin (IVM) on the activities of key CYPs (CYP1A1/2, 2B1, 2C6, 2D2, and 3A1/2).ResultsTVM induced CYP1A, 2C, 2D and 3A activities only at high therapeutic doses (2.5 mg/kg), and its induction was significantly weaker than that of IVM at all doses tested, with the most pronounced difference for CYP3A1/2. …”

Enhancing personalised care in COPD exacerbation: the role of cardiac/inflammatory biomarkers by Pouria Khashayar, Kenneth Spearpoint, Patricia Khashayar, Manivannan Srinivasan, Thida Win

“…The relationship between COPD and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is well established, with many studies confirming comorbidities, such as coronary artery disease, heart failure and diabetes mellitus, to significantly impact their prognosis.2,3 Thus, the role of cardiac dysfunction in increasing the mortality rate (between 30% and 60%) in COPD individuals is well documented and known to be closely linked to advancing age as well as long-term disabilities and, therefore, is a tremendous burden on society.4 Materials and Methods: A systematic literature review in PubMed and Web of Science using keywords including ‘Exacerbated COPD’, cardiovascular events such as ‘cardiovascular mortality’, ‘coronary heart disease’, ‘CVD’, ‘myocardial ischemia’ and ‘heart failure’ and cardiac/inflammatory biomarkers (‘Troponin’, ‘B-Type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP)’ and ‘C-Reactive Protein (CRP)’) was undertaken to help provide a better picture of this association. …”
