RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Educational interventions are required to train pharmacists to provide culturally safe care to sexually- and gender-diverse patients. Programming must promote inclusivity and should also focus on systemwide change. The aim of this review was to identify, summarize, and map scholarly activity with respect to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, plus (LGBTQ+) health in entry-to-practice pharmacy curricula. METHODS: An electronic search of Medline, EMBASE, and International Pharmaceutical Abstracts was conducted to search for relevant literature up to May 2021. This search was supplemented with a keyword search of three pharmacy education journals. Articles were included in the review if they described an educational intervention for entry-to-practice pharmacy students related to health for sexually- or gender-diverse patients. RESULTS: Five articles met inclusion criteria. All articles reported interventions relating to gender-diverse patients. One reported interventions relating to sexually-diverse patients and another was deemed unclear. Four articles reported single teaching events or short modules, and one article reported a full course. Incorporating real patients into teaching events to share their experiences with the health system was consistently received positively by students. IMPLICATIONS: Scholars involved in developing and implementing educational interventions related to health for sexually- and gender-diverse patients should be encouraged to contribute to the scholarly conversation by sharing successful experiences, as well as lessons learned. Future areas of expansion include integration of sexual and gender minority health across curricula and including content to prepare students for implementing and supporting systemwide change.

Arsenic trioxide has shown the excellent therapeutic efficiency for acute promyelocytic leukemia. Nowadays, more and more research focuses on the design of the arsenic drugs, especially organic arsenicals, and on the mechanism of the inducing cell death. Here we have synthesized some organic arsenicals with Schiff base structure, which showed a better antitumor activity for three different kinds of cancer cell lines, namely HL-60, SGC 7901 and MCF-7. Compound 2a (2-(((4-(oxoarsanyl)phenyl)imino)methyl)phenol) and 2b (2-methoxy-4-(((4-(oxoarsanyl)phenyl)imino)methyl)phenol) were chosen for further mechanism study due to their best inhibitory activities for HL-60 cells, of which the half inhibitory concentration (IC50) were 0.77 µM and 0.51 µM, respectively. It was illustrated that 2a or 2b primarily induced the elevation of reactive oxygen species, decrease of glutathione level, collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential, release of cytochrome c, activation of Caspase-3 and apoptosis, whereas all of the phenomena can be eliminated by the addition of antioxidants. Therefore, we concluded that compound 2a and 2b can induce the oxidative stress-mediated intrinsic apoptosis in HL-60 cells. Both the simplicity of structure with Schiff base group and the better anticancer efficiency demonstrate that organic arsenicals are worthy of further exploration as a class of potent antitumor drugs.

PURPOSE: To explore whether p38 signal pathway regulates osteogenic differentiation of maxillary primordium mesenchymal cells. METHODS: The first passage of maxillary primordium mesenchymal cells (MPMCs) from E12.5 embryos were cultured in the osteogenic medium, and 10 nM SB203580 (an inhibitor of phosphorylation of p38) was added in the medium in the experimental group for 1 week. Then immunofluorescence staining was applied to detect the phosphorylation of p38 in MPMCs. Brdu label and immunofluorescence staining were used to detect the proliferation of MPMCs. ALP staining and qPCR were used to detect the mRNA expression of ALP, Runx2, OCN and OPN in MPMCs. ALP staining and PCR were used to evaluate the osteogenic capability of MPMCs. SPSS 18.0 software package was used to analyze the data. RESULTS: Osteogenic induction could promote phosphorylation of p38, inhibit phosphorylation of p38 and proliferation of MPMCs, down-regulate the expression of ALP, Runx2, OCN and OPN, thus weaken the ALP staining in MPMCs. CONCLUSIONS: p38 signal pathway regulates osteogenic differentiation of MPMCs in vitro.

Investigation on the extracts of Hydnocarpus anthelminthica seeds led to the isolation of three new compounds, anthelminthicins A-C (1-3, resp.), and two known ones, namely chaulmoogric acid (4) and ethyl chaulmoograte (5). Their structures were determined mainly by using spectroscopic techniques. The absolute configuration at the cyclopentenyl moiety of compound 2 was rationalized by quantum calculations. Base hydrolysis, followed by optical-rotation comparison, allowed assignment of the configuration of chaulmoogric-acid moiety of compounds 3 and 5. Biological assays revealed that compounds 1-5 significantly inhibit Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) growth with MIC values of 5.54, 16.70, 4.38, 9.82, and 16.80 microM, respectively. Compound 3 was found to inhibit the pathway between chorismate and para-aminobenzoic acid (pAba) with a MIC value of 11.3 microM, representing a new example of pAba inhibitor isolated from a natural source. All compounds were not toxic to Candida albicans SC5314 at a concentration up to 100 microM.
