Biochem/physiol Actions

Misfolded proteins accumulate in many neurodegenerative diseases, including huntingtin in Huntington′s disease and alpha-synuclein in Parkinson′s disease. The disease-causing proteins can take various conformations and are prone to aggregate and form larger cytoplasmic or nuclear inclusions. CPNQ (B2) was identified as a compound that promotes inclusion formation in cellular models of both Huntington′s disease and Parkinson′s disease. Despite the aggregate-forming specifics the compound prevents huntingtin-mediated proteasome dysfunction and reduces alpha-synuclein-mediated toxicity. These results demonstrate that compounds that increase inclusion formation may actually lessen cellular pathology in both Huntington′s and Parkinson′s diseases, suggesting a therapeutic approach for neurodegenerative diseases caused by protein misfolding. The ability of B2 to prevent toxicity, despite increasing inclusions, suggests that inclusions are beneficial rather than toxic, which will be further explored as the molecular target and mechanism. CPNQ (B2) is a desirable tool for both Huntington′s and Parkinson′s research.

Polymyxin B is a last-line antibiotic for multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacterial infections. However, limited safety and pharmacokinetic information is available. We investigated the safety and pharmacokinetics of intravenous polymyxin B in healthy subjects. An open-label, single-dose clinical trial was conducted in

A number of companies manufacture polymyxin B using United States Pharmacopeia (USP) metrics, rather than chemical composition, to report biological activity. Given that polymyxin B contains several different components, it is unknown whether pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic variability exists between the

Infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli are an important cause of morbidity and mortality, especially in children. We compared 58 epidemiologically unrelated ESBL-producing E. coli strains that caused infections. They were isolated between 2008 and 2012 in two
