Gout is a type of arthritis that occurs due to the accumulation of uric acid crystals in the joints, leading to inflammation and pain. According to the Biopharmaceutical Classification System (BCS), FEB was classified under class II drugs. The low dissolution rate of the drug determines its bioavailability at approximately 49%. Drug nanosizing, such as Nanosuspensions (NS), represents an exciting and potentially beneficial method to improve the bioavailability of hydrophobic drugs. This study aimed to prepare and characterize FEB NS to increase the dissolution rate, which can enhance its oral bioavailability. Using solvent/anti-so

Let be a ring with 1 and D is a left module over . In this paper, we study the relationship between essentially small quasi-Dedekind modules with scalar and multiplication modules. We show that if D is a scalar small quasi-prime -module, thus D is an essentially small quasi-Dedekind -module. We also show that if D is a faithful multiplication -module, then D is an essentially small prime -module iff is an essentially small quasi-Dedekind ring.
Nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor-2 (NFE2L-2) is one important endogenous anti -oxidative stress signal pathway. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) or genetic variants of NFE2L-2 may be accountable for the genesis of diabetic retinopathy. Glyoxalase-1 (Glo-1) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the detoxification of methylglyoxal (MG) into D-lactate. The activity of GLO1 is regulated by the transcription factor NFE2L2.The goal of this study is to ascertain whether there is an association between the rs6706649 of NFE2L2 gene variant with serum GLO-1 levels in a group of Iraqi diabetic patients diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy (DR).

Show MoreAn -module is called absolutely self neat if whenever is a map from a maximal left ideal of , with kernel in the filter is generated by the set of annihilator left ideals of elements in into , then is extendable to a map from into . The concept is analogous to the absolute self purity, while it properly generalizes quasi injectivity and absolute neatness and retains some of their properties. Certain types of rings are characterized using this concept. For example, a ring is left max-hereditary if and only if the homomorphic image of any absolutely neat -module is absolutely self neat, and is semisimple if and only if all -modules are absolutely self neat.

It has a poor rate of absorption when taken orally, a maximum bioavailability of about 26%, and limited solubility in water. OLM is therefore categorized as class II in the Biopharmaceuticals Classification System (BCS), suggesting that it has high permeability and low solubility. By generating nanomicelles, this work attempts to increase the aqueous solubility and dissolution rate of OLM. Mixed polymeric nanomicelles made up of soluplus (SLP) with tween 80 (TWN80) and SLP with d-α tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS), had been prepared in different gravimetric ratios.

In this research, 12C(p, γ) 13N and 14N(p, γ) 15O reactions have been calculated by means of Matlab codes to find the reaction rate across a temperature range of 0.006 to 10 GK using non-resonant parts, as well as the astrophysical S- factor S(E) at low energies. It was concluded that the high binding energy of 12C and 14N nuclei make the reaction less probable thus enabling other competitive processes to develop, which enhances the probability of other competitive proton reactions in the CNO cycle.

Most of the clinically used HDACi are pan-inhibitors and have poor pharmacokinetic properties. Therefore, several attempts are ongoing to develop new HDACis with optimum structural features to overcome the structural limitations. In this work, six new triazole-based compounds (k1-k6) were proposed via special modification of common pharmacophores of HDACi using 1,2,4-triazole as a zinc-binding group (ZBG), diverse group in CAP group, and hydrophobic linker. These compounds were analyzed by docking study
