[VIRTUAL] SEVERE REFRACTORY HYPERCORTISOLISM FROM ATYPICAL THYMIC CARCINOID TUMOR MANAGED WITH ETOMIDATE INFUSION () - Oct 13, 2021 - Abstract #CHEST2021CHEST_700; She was initiated on ketoconazole at that time, while closely monitoring ACTH and cortisol levels...Mifepristone (korlym) along with spironolactone and KCl were started...She is currently receiving chemotherapy - carboplatin/etoposide along with mitotane and her cortisol levels have been stable... Low dose etomidate infusion can be used to control severe Cushing's syndrome with life threatening complications as a bridge to long-term definitive management.

Journal: Histone H3K9 methylation regulates chronic stress and IL-6-induced colon epithelial permeability and visceral pain. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 10, 2021 Low dose etomidate infusion can be used to control severe Cushing's syndrome with life threatening complications as a bridge to long-term definitive management. Our findings support a novel role for methylation of the repressive histone H3K9 to regulate chronic stress, pro-inflammatory cytokine-mediated reduction in colon TJ protein levels, and increase in paracellular permeability and visceral hyperalgesia.

Journal: Effects of Bisphenols on RACK1 Expression and Their Immunological Implications in THP-1 Cells. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 9, 2021 Since BPA and BPAF induced RACK1 expression in the presence of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) antagonist mifepristone, a role of G-protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) has been considered due to their known estrogenic profile...Conversely, BPAF induced RACK1 up-regulation via androgen receptor (AR) activation, as confirmed by treatment with AR antagonist flutamide...Altogether, our data suggest that RACK1 could represent an important target of EDCs and serves as a screening tool for their immunotoxic potential. Furthermore, RACK1 can be exploited to unmask multiple molecular interactions of hormone-active substances to better dissect out their mechanisms of action.

Clinical, Journal: Clinical Efficacy and Safety Study of Mifepristone with Misoprostol Treatment in Patients with Missed Abortion. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 9, 2021 After drug treatment, no abnormal changes in liver and kidney functions were observed in both groups, and the incidence of adverse reactions was at a similar and lower level in both groups. This shows that mifepristone with misoprostol is a safer and more effective drug regimen for the treatment of MA, which can regulate the levels of serum sex hormones and inflammatory factors in the body, promote the shedding of placental tissue, and create conditions for improving the rate of curettage.

Clinical, Journal: Clinical and diagnostic-imaging findings in patellofemoral instability (Pubmed Central) - Oct 2, 2021 Medical abortion with combined mifepristone and misoprostol is a highly effective, safe, and widely used method for medical termination of pregnancy. In this review, it is shown that self-testing with a urine human chorionic gonadotropin stix (detection limit greater than 25 IU/l) four weeks after administration of medication is a safe, practical, and cheap method to determine successful termination.

[VIRTUAL] Regulation of lentivirusmediated expression in a human airway model () - Oct 2, 2021 - Abstract #ESGCT2021ESGCT_255; To establish proofofconcept that lentivirusmediated expression can be regulated, a commercial mifepristoneinducible system (GeneSwitch, Invitrogen) was cloned into a lentiviral backbone and VSVG vectors generated...GMCSF expression increased by 27.8fold in 1V cultures compared to 575.9fold with 2V cultures. In summary, we have demonstrated proofofconcept that lentivirusmediated gene expression can be regulated in a human airway model, with superior induction observed by the 2V system.

Journal: A method for overcoming plasma protein inhibition of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 1, 2021 In a mouse model of AGP drug inhibition, mifepristone restores midostaurin activity. This suggests combinatorial methods for overcoming plasma protein inhibition of existing TKIs for leukemia as well as providing a platform for investigating the drug-protein interaction space for developing more potent small-molecule agents.

The glucocorticoid antagonist PT150 reduces shock-induced fentanyl seeking, suggesting it may be effective against stress-induced relapse, although the sex difference in response may need further exploration.

Journal: GPGMH, a New Fixed Timed-AI Synchronization Regimen for Swamp and River Crossbred Buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis). (Pubmed Central) - Sep 24, 2021 Comparison of four conventional synchronization protocols [pregnant mare gonadotropin-prostaglandin Fα-gonadotropin-releasing hormone (PmPG), gonadotropin-releasing hormone-prostaglandin Fα-gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GPG), prostaglandin Fα-gonadotropin-releasing hormone-prostaglandin Fα-estradiol benzoate (PGPE), and progesterone-pregnant mare gonadotropin-prostaglandin Fα-gonadotropin-releasing hormone (PPmPG)] in crossbred buffaloes showed that the GPG protocol treated buffaloes displayed higher (P 0.05) and pregnancy rates (P > 0.05) than the PGPG and GPG protocols in crossbred buffaloes. The current study supported that new synchronization protocol (modified of GPG protocol; GPGMH) by the inclusion of mifepristone (with a dose of 0.4 mg/kg along second GnRH), AI after 24 h of mifepristone or second GnRH, and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG at day 5 of AI) enhance the ovulation and pregnancy rates in crossbred buffaloes.

Thus, we have substantially improved the applicability of the GS vector toward therapeutic use in patients.

Therefore, these results suggest that paeoniflorin might be a potent drug candidate for the treatment of endometrial implantation failure by enhancing endometrial receptivity.
