A Toolbox for Mimicking Gastrointestinal Conditions in Children: Simulated Paediatric Breakfast Media (SPBM) for Addressing the Variability of Gastric Contents After Typical Paediatric Breakfasts

Lisa Freerks et al.

Summary: This study focuses on the impact of food on drug exposure and highlights the lack of corresponding study designs for children. To avoid unnecessary in vivo studies, the use of Simulated Paediatric Breakfast Media (SPBM) is proposed for predicting food effects. The results demonstrate the influence of different simulated gastric conditions on drug release.

Comprehensive Evaluation of Biological Effects of Pentathiepins on Various Human Cancer Cell Lines and Insights into Their Mode of Action

Lisa Wolff et al.

Summary: In this study, six novel pentathiepins were synthesized and extensively evaluated in 14 human cancer cell lines, showing high cytotoxic and antiproliferative activity, with some compounds strongly inhibiting GPx1. There is a clear connection between the potential to provoke oxidative stress and damage to DNA. The different biological responses among pentathiepins suggest that modulation of the effects depends on distinct chemical structures, potentially allowing for optimization of their anticancer activity in the future.
