During duration spaceflight, or after their return to earth, astronauts have often suffered from gait instability and cerebellar ataxia. Here, we use a mouse model of hindlimb unloading (HU) to explore a mechanism of how reduced hindlimb burden may contribute

Nanoparticle of Lactosome, which is composed of poly(l-lactic acid)-base depsipeptide with diameter of 35nm, accumulates in solid tumors by the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. However, a pharmacokinetic alteration of Lactosome was observed when Lactosome was repeatedly administered. This

Choline is essential for mammalian cell function. It plays a critical role in cell membrane integrity, neurotransmission, cell signaling and lipid metabolism. Moreover, choline is involved in methylation in two ways: a) its synthesis requires methyl groups donated by S-adenosyl-methionine
Acetaminophen and its glucuronide, sulfate, N-acetyl-L-cysteinyl, and L-cysteinyl metabolites can be rapidly detected by 1H NMR spectroscopy of intact, untreated human urine. Study of the time course of excretion of these metabolites in five clinically normal men after ingestion of
