How To Avoid China ’ s Medicine Monopoly
I want to share a shocking statistic with you…
Around 80% of all the pharmaceuticals sold in America — both prescription and over-the-counter — are manufactured in China.
I’m talking about drugs for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, blood pressure and blood thinners, diuretics, aspirin, antibiotics, and a big chunk of the world’s insulin and diabetes drugs — just to name a few.1
We don’t even make penicillin anymore. The last penicillin plant in the U.S. closed its doors in 2004.
Americans who rely on medicine are now almost entirely at the mercy of a country whose relations with the U.S. have become more ...

Recent advances in the structure and activation mechanisms of metabolite-releasing Pannexin 1 channels
Biochem Soc Trans. 2023 Aug 25:BST20230038. doi: 10.1042/BST20230038. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPannexin 1 (PANX1) is a widely expressed large-pore ion channel located in the plasma membrane of almost all vertebrate cells. It possesses a unique ability to act as a conduit for both inorganic ions (e.g. potassium or chloride) and bioactive metabolites (e.g. ATP or glutamate), thereby activating varying signaling pathways in an autocrine or paracrine manner. Given its crucial role in cell-cell interactions, the activity of PANX1 has been implicated in maintaining homeostasis of cardiovascular, immune, and nervous systems....

Differential effect of gold nanoparticles on cerebrovascular function and biomechanical properties
This study provides the first evidence that GNPs affect the structure and function of the cerebrovasculature, which may be important for their development and use in biomedical applications.

Ketamine improves neuronal recovery following spreading depolarization in peri ‐infarct tissues
We examined spreading depolarization (SD) waves in a mouse stroke model. SDs were initiated by focal potassium chloride application and propagated through a region of graded perfusion deficit created by distal middle cerebral artery (dMCA) occlusion. Longer lasting depolarizations (DC shifts measured from local field potential (LFP) electrodes) and neuronal Ca2+ transients (epifluorescence GCaMP imaging) occurred at locations with larger perfusion deficits (proximal to occlusion), as compared with remote recording sites (laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) of cerebral perfusion). Ketamine, at concentrations that did not ...

Analysis of the clinical features and risk factors of kidney injury in patients with chronic heart failure-a retrospective cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Kidney injury occurred in more than half of the patients with CHF during hospitalization. The independent risk factors for kidney injury in the CHF patients included sex (male), hypertension, and stroke. Kidney injury was positively correlated with age and serum potassium, and negatively correlated with serum albumin, hemoglobin concentration, LVEF, and ARB application.PMID:37559657 | PMC:PMC10407521 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-23-1016
