Istaroxime, an investigational new drug that targets defective Ca(2+) cycling without compromising cardiac efficiency, may represent a promising and safe treatment of both acute and chronic heart failure. Even though the compound demonstrated good tolerability in a phase I/II safety

The treatment of anemia and thrombocytopenia with allogeneic cell transfusions is an effective and well-developed technology. However, leukocyte replacement transfusion has been frustrated by the physiology of the leukocytes. To achieve effective leukocyte replacement, the continuous-flow centrifugal blood cell separator

Pro-arrhythmic risk strongly limits the therapeutic value of current inotropic interventions. Istaroxime (previously PST2744) is a novel inotropic agent, significantly less pro-arrhythmic than digoxin that, in addition to block Na(+)/K(+) pump, stimulates sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) ATPase (SERCA2). Here we

17-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) can be converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) via an alternative "backdoor" route that bypasses the conventional intermediates androstenedione and testosterone. In this backdoor pathway, 17-OHP is converted to 5α-pregnane-3α,17α-diol-20-one (pdiol), which is an excellent substrate for the 17,20 lyase
