TV 3326 for Alzheimer ’s dementia: a novel multimodal ChE and MAO inhibitors to mitigate Alzheimer’s‐like neuropathology
AbstractObjectivesAlzheimer ’s disease (AD) is one of the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorders and a well‐recognized cause of dementia with ageing. In this review, we have represented the ChE and MAO inhibitory potential of TV 3326 against AD based on current scientific evidence.Key findingsThe aetiology of AD is quite complex and not completely understood. However, it has been observed that AD involves the deposition of abnormal amyloid beta (A β), along with hyperphosphorylation of tau, oxidative stress, low acetylcholine (ACh) level and biometal dyshomeostasis. Due to the complex nature of AD aetiology, activ...

Taste masking of water ‐soluble drug by solid lipid microspheres: a child‐friendly system established by reversed lipid‐based nanoparticle technique
ConclusionsAtomoxetine hydrochloride ‐reversed lipid‐based nanoparticle‐solid lipid microsphere exhibited excellent taste‐masking effect with negligible leakage in the oral cavity environment and thorough collapse upon lipase stimulation, simultaneously enhancing the bioavailability of ATX. The study paves a new way to efficien tly mask the undesirable taste of some water‐soluble drugs. (Source: Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology)

Glucuronidation and its effect on the bioactivity of amentoflavone, a biflavonoid from Ginkgo biloba leaves
ConclusionsA low AMF bioavailability was due to extensive glucuronidation, which was mediated by UGT1A1 and UGT1A3. Glucuronidated AMF metabolites had the same antioxidant but had a lower anticancer activity than that of AMF. (Source: Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology)

Clomipramine, a tricyclic antidepressant, and selegiline, a monoamine oxidase ‐B inhibitor, modulate the activity of phagocytic cells after oral administration in mice
ConclusionsBoth clomipramine and selegiline administered in vivo changed the phagocytic activity of blood cells and IL ‐1β and NO production by murine peritoneal macrophages. This effect depended on the drug, the number of doses and the type of phagocytic cells. (Source: Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology)

Urinary metabolomics research for Huangqi Jianzhong Tang against chronic atrophic gastritis rats based on 1H NMR and UPLC ‐Q/TOF MS
ConclusionsThe main mechanism of HQJZ might be due to the balance of energy consumption, inflammatory inhibition, improvement of the immune system and oxidative stress on the constructed CAG rats. These findings provided comprehensive metabolic information of TCM by parallel measurements by LC ‐MS and NMR. (Source: Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology)

Treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy: a review
The objectives of this paper are to review current guidelines for the pharmacological management of DPN and to discuss research rel evant to the further development of pharmacological recommendations for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy.SummaryDiabetic neuropathy is a highly prevalent, disabling condition, the management of which is associated with significant costs. Evidence supports the use of specific anticonvulsants and antidepressants for pain management in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. All current guidelines advise a personalised approach with a low ‐dose start that is tailored to the maximum re...
