Tierexperimentelle Untersuchungen zur Abh�ngigkeit der Ototoxicit�t von der Dosierung des Kanamycin und zur Schutzwirkung durch Vitamine
1963
Mit einer einfachen Methodik wird die durch Kanamycin bei Ratten ausgeloste Horschadigung quantitativ gemessen. Die Abhangigkeit der Schwere der Horschadigung von der Dosis und vom Dosierungsschema wird bestimmt. Der Nachweis, das die Vitamine A oder D eine protektive Wirkung gegenuber der Ototoxicitat des Kanamycin besitzen, kann nicht erbracht werden. Die Folgerungen aus diesen toxikologischen Untersuchungen fur die Anwendung von Kanamycin am Menschen werden kurz erortert.
Znaczenie i rola witaminy D w praktyce farmaceutycznej
2022
Pierwsze doniesienia o witaminie D pojawiły się w pierwszej połowie XX w. Jej odkrycie wywarło istotny wpływ na prewencję i leczenie krzywicy, a także umożliwiło poznanie i udokumentowanie roli w regulacji równowagi gospodarki wapniowo-fosforanowej. Dalsze doniesienia sugerują również inne istotne dla zdrowia właściwości witaminy D, w tym wpływ na układ mięśniowy, nerwowy, immunologiczny, krążenia, gospodarkę węglowodanową, otyłość, ryzyko wystąpienia chorób nowotworowych, a także (istotne dziś) zagadnienie wpływu na przebieg i zapadalność na COVID-19. Wyróżniono sześć form witaminy D różniących się strukturą łańcuchów bocznych. Do grupy witaminy D zaliczamy: cholekalcyferol (witamina D3) p…
Density Functional Theory Modelled Absorption and Raman Spectra Applicable to Ergocalciferol (Vitamin D2) and Cholecalciferol (D3)
2021
The study establishes optically relevant lines by modelling ergocalciferol (D2) and cholecalciferol (D3) and compare these to measured and earlier reported absorption and Raman spectra lines. This is a step to reach a further goal of finding if minute Vitamin D (D2 and D3) concentration changes could be determined so that a non-invasive sensor could be developed with a reference to non-invasive measurements reported in [1] describing a Raman spectroscopy method of blood glucose concentration of threshold of 5 mmol/l. However, our concentrations are lower by two orders, i.e., 50 nmol/l. At such concentrations random-type metabolites may have an important role, like those related with person’…
Density Functional Theory Calculated Raman Spectra of Ergocalciferol (Vitamin D2) and Cholecalciferol (D3)
2021
Density functional theory (DFT)-calculated Infrared and Raman spectra of Vitamin D2 and D3 are presented. The calculated results are compared with each other and with available experimental data. Applicability of Raman spectra for non-invasive optical Vitamin D sensors is discussed.
Use of nutritional supplement to improve performance in professional soccer players: A case report
2020
The aim of the study was to investigate the intake percentage and the satisfaction level of some nutritional supplements used by professional soccer players. Twenty-nine professional soccer players (age: 24.6 ± 5.2 years, body weight: 79.2 ± 4.9 kg, body height: 1.83 ± 0.05 m) belonging to a team of Serie A were interviewed on: frequency of use, tolerability, and acceptance of the supplements (creatine, β-alanine, whey protein, nitrates, vitamin D3, caffeine) proposed by the nutritionist team. This survey revealed a great inter-individual variability on the intake of the proposed supplements. All respondents (n = 29) said they take cholecalciferol (vitamin D3), 17 out of 29 creatine, 14 out…
Vitamin D3 in fish oil extracted with limonene from anchovy leftovers
2020
Abstract Aiming to identify and assess the amount of fat-soluble vitamins in anchovy oil extracted with d-limonene from anchovy fillet leftovers via the UHPLC–HESI–MS advanced mass spectrometry analytical technique, this study shows that only vitamin D3 is present in anchovy by-product oil. The sum of the quantities of the three isomers of vitamin D3 amounts to 0.0815 μg vitamin D3 per g oil, namely a 81.5 μg/kg content, in good agreement with the typical amounts of vitamin D3 in fish oils (ranging from 18 to 350 μg/kg).
Identification of polymorphic variants associated with erlotinib-related skin toxicity in advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients by DMET microa…
2016
Purpose: Erlotinib is a targeted agent commonly used in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC). However, drug-related skin toxicity often may affect the quality of life of cancer patients and lead to treatment discontinuation. Genetic polymorphisms in drug transporters and metabolizing enzymes play a major role in the interindividual variability in terms of efficacy and toxicity of erlotinib treatment. The aim of our study was to identify genetic determinants in adsorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion genes influencing skin rash (SR) by the novel drug-metabolizing enzyme and transporter (DMET) microarray Affymetrix platform in aNSCLC patients. Methods: In a retrospective s…
Vitamin D Deficiency in Cushing’s Disease: Before and After Its Supplementation
2022
Background: The primary objective of the study was to assess serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] values in patients with Cushing’s disease (CD), compared to controls. The secondary objective was to assess the response to a load of 150,000 U of cholecalciferol. Methods: In 50 patients with active CD and 48 controls, we evaluated the anthropometric and biochemical parameters, including insulin sensitivity estimation by the homeostatic model of insulin resistance, Matsuda Index and oral disposition index at baseline and in patients with CD also after 6 weeks of cholecalciferol supplementation. Results: At baseline, patients with CD showed a higher frequency of hypovitaminosis deficiency (p = 0…

Immunohistochemical Expression of Vitamin D Receptor in Uterine Fibroids
2022
One of the many factors involved in the development of uterine fibroids is vitamin D deficiency. One aspect of this deficiency is decreased serum concentration of calcidiol-25(OH)D, a metabolite of D3 vitamin. The active form of vitamin D3, which arises after numerous enzymatic reactions, is calcitriol-1,25(OH)2D3; this compound is transported to various body tissues. Vitamin D possesses extra-genomic effects due to its influence on various signaling pathways, i.e., through activating tyrosine kinases and by genomic effects via binding to a specific nuclear receptor, vitamin D receptor (VDR). The vitamin D/VDR complex regulates the expression of genes and is involved in the pathogenesis of …
