Yacon isolates could be distinguished from potato isolates by their inability to infect Physalis floridana, and potato isolates from Ecuador and Peru could be distinguished by their symptomatology in this host as well as phylogenetically. The non-recombinant yacon isolates were closely related to a recently described isolate from Solanum muricatum (pepino dulce), and all isolates were related to Fragaria chiloensis latent virus (FCiLV) reported in strawberry from Chile, and probably should be considered the same species. Although PYV is not serologically related to Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV), they are both transmitted by aphids and share several other characteristics that support the previous suggestion to reclassify AMV as a member in the genus Ilarvirus. KP-457 Glucagon is a 29 amino acid peptide hormone secreted by pancreatic α-cells that interacts with specific receptors located in various organs. Glucagon tends to form gel-like fibrillar aggregates that are cytotoxic due to their activation of apoptotic signaling pathways. To understand the glucagon-membrane interactions, morphological changes in dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) bilayers containing glucagon in neutral solution were investigated by observing 31P NMR spectra. First, lipid bilayers with a DMPC/glucagon molar ratio of 50/1 were observed. One day after preparing the DMPC/glucagon lipid bilayer sample, lipid bilayers were disrupted below the phase transition temperature (Tc). Membrane disruption was reduced 2 days after preparation due to the reduction of glucagon-DMPC interaction, and subsequently increased by 4 days and was reduced again by 7 days. TEM measurements showed that small ellipsoidal intermediates of glucagon were observed inside the small size of lipid bilayer after 4 days, while fibrils grew inside lipid bilayer after 19 days. These results indicate that morphological changes in DMPC/glucagon lipid bilayers are correlated with the evolution of glucagon aggregate state. Particularly, fibril intermediate shows a strong glucagon lipid bilayer interaction. We further investigated the structure and kinetics of glucagon fibril formation inside the DMPC lipid bilayer in a neutral solution using 13C solid-state NMR spectroscopy. α-Helical structures were observed around Gly4 and Ala19 in the monomeric form, which changed to β-sheet structures in the fibril form. The fibrillation process can be explained by a two-step autocatalytic reaction mechanism in which the first step is a homogeneous nuclear formation (k1), and the second step is an autocatalytic heterogeneous fibrillation process (k2). V.Although diagnostic criteria have been developed characterizing postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), no single set of criteria is universally accepted. Furthermore, there are gaps in the present criteria to identify individuals who have this condition. The reproducibility of the physiological findings, the relationship of symptoms to physiological findings, the presence of symptoms alone without any physiological findings and the response to various interventions confuse rather than clarify this condition. As many disease entities can be confused with POTS, it becomes critical to identify what this syndrome is. What appears to be POTS may be an underlying condition that requires specific therapy. POTS is not simply orthostatic intolerance and symptoms or intermittent orthostatic tachycardia but the syndrome needs to be characterized over time and with reproducibility. Here we address critical issues regarding the pathophysiology and diagnosis of POTS in an attempt to arrive at a rational approach to categorize the syndrome with the hope that it may help both better identify individuals and better understand approaches to therapy. Filgrastim, a biopharmaceutical listed on WHO model list of essential medicines, was approved in USA in 1991 for patients with non-myeloid malignancies associated with severe neutropenia and fever. Several filgrastim biosimilars have now been approved in USA, Europe and elsewhere since 2008, based on the reference product which has lost patent exclusivity; however their immunogenicity and safety is controversial. We conducted a retrospective, post market study between 1991 and May 2018 using VigiBase®. The study included all adverse events with case reports ≥150. Overall, 11,183 adverse drugs reaction reports were identified during observation period; of which 5764; 51.5% reports concerned to Neupogen®, the originator, and rest consists of Leucostim® (N = 680), Zarzio® (N = 622), Grasin® (N = 545), Nivestim® (N = 359) and Tevagrastim® (N = 152) biosimilars. When compared with the originator, Grasin® was associated with higher reporting of pyrexia (11.5% vs 7.9%, ROR 1.52, IC025 1.12), myalgia (37% vs 2.2%, ROR 25.94, IC025 2.11) and back pain (11.3% vs 4%, ROR 3.09, IC025 2.32). Zarzio® was associated with increased reporting of arthralgia (4.5% vs 2.9%, ROR 1.59, IC025 1.25) and neutropenia (11.4% vs 4%, ROR 2.59, IC025 3.07). Bone pain was reported more often with Nivestim® (14.4% vs 8.3%, ROR 1.87, IC025 5.30). Drug ineffectiveness was reported in cases with Zarzio® (35.9%), Nivestim® (19.4%) and Tevagrastim® (42.2%). Authors observed significant differences among originator and biosimilars in particular to efficacy, adverse events reported and time to onset of occurrences. Large epidemiologic studies are needed to further confirm these finding and provide additional insights. Bile acid conjugates are emerging as important chemical resources due to their low cost and wide availability of bile acids, making them privileged molecules in drug carrier systems and building blocks for derivatization and chiral template introduction into bioactive molecules. In recent years, bile acids as scaffolds in supramolecular, medicinal, and material chemistry attracted prime focus of researchers as an area of research to be followed with passion. Due to peculiar physicochemical and biological properties, bile acid exhibited various applications in biomedical and pharmaceutical fields. In this review, the bile acid conjugations with different bioactive compounds have been discussed to understand their influence on the bioavailability of bioactive compounds.
