82 and 0.88 in subscales of the survey and Intraclass Correlation Coefficient values were between 0.52 and 0.65 in subscales of the survey and 0.64 in overall survey. CONCLUSION In the Turkish version of MISSCARE Survey-Pediatric version, the section A with 29 items and the section B with 16 items were valid and reliable. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS The survey is a valid and reliable tool for intercultural studies revealing the nursing care activities missed by nurses working in pediatric clinics and the reasons for such activities. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are active pharmaceutical ingredients in antibody drugs, produced mainly using recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The regulation of recombinant CHO cell proliferation can improve the productivity of heterologous proteins. Chemical compound approaches for cell cycle regulation have the advantages of simplicity and ease of use in industrial processes. However, CHO cells have genetic and phenotypic diversity, and the effects of such compounds might depend on cell line and culture conditions. Increasing the variety of cell cycle inhibitors is a promising strategy to overcome the dependency. Marine microorganisms are a vast and largely undeveloped source of secondary metabolites with physiological activity. In this study, we focused on secondary metabolites of marine microorganisms and evaluated their effectiveness as cell cycle inhibitory compounds. Of 720 extracts from microorganisms (400 actinomycetes and 320 filamentous fungi) collected from the Okinawan Sea, we identified nine extracts that decreased the specific growth rate and increased the specific production rate without reducing cell viability. After fractionating the extracts, the components of active fractions were estimated using time-of-flight mass spectrometry analysis. Then, four compounds, including staurosporine and undecylprodigiosin were deduced to be active compounds. These compounds have been reported to exert a cell cycle inhibitory effect on mammalian cells. These compounds might serve as additives to improve mAb production in CHO cells. This study indicates that secondary metabolites of marine microorganisms are a useful source for new cell cycle inhibitory compounds that can increase mAb production in CHO cells. Urethanase (EC 3.5.1.75) is an effective enzyme for removing ethyl carbamate (EC) present in alcoholic beverages. However, urethanase is not well studied and has not yet been developed for practical use. In this study, we report a new urethanase (CPUTNase) from the yeast Candida parapsilosis. Because C. parapsilosis can assimilate EC as its sole nitrogen source, the enzyme was extracted from yeast cells and purified using ion-exchange chromatography. The CPUTNase was estimated as a homotetramer comprising four units of a 61.7 kDa protein. In a 20% ethanol solution, CPUTNase had 73% activity compared with a solution without ethanol. Residual activity after 18 h indicated that CPUTNase was stable in 0%-40% ethanol solutions. The optimum temperature of CPUTNase was 43°C. This enzyme showed urethanase activity at pH 5.5-10.0 and exhibited its highest activity at pH 10. The gene of CPUTNase was identified, and a recombinant enzyme was expressed in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Characteristics of recombinant CPUTNase were identical to the native enzyme. The putative amino acid sequence indicated that CPUTNase was an amidase family protein. Further, substrate specificity supported this sequence analysis because CPUTNase showed higher activities toward amide compounds. These results suggest that amidase could be a candidate for urethanase. We discovered a new enzyme and investigated its enzymatic characteristics, sequence, and recombinant CPUTNase expression. These results contribute to a further understanding of urethanase. OBJECTIVE The objective of this systematic review is to evaluate the impact of prescription opioid-related education provided to a patient by a health care provider on patient outcomes. DATA SOURCES The databases searched were PubMed, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature (EBSCO), Academic Search Premier (EBSCO), Health Source Nursing/Academic Edition (EBSCO), and International Pharmaceutical Abstracts (OVID). STUDY SELECTION Studies were included if they were in English, peer-reviewed, and published between 1996 and October 22, 2018. Patient educational approaches initiated by health care providers for opioid medications in adults older than 18 years of age were evaluated. Studies were excluded if the full articles were unavailable or duplicates, or if they involved studies that did not explore provider-initiated patient educational interventions targeting opioid medications. Studies taking place outside the United States were excluded, as well. DATA EXTRACTION Titles and abstracts of 4863as this could inform pharmacists on how they should educate their patients. OBJECTIVES To determine if a difference in the use of point-of-care (POC) testing and treatment under a collaborative pharmacy practice agreement exists between insured and uninsured patients and also between patients established with a primary care provider (PCP) and those who are not established. A secondary objective was to assess patient satisfaction with a new, pharmacist-provided service. SETTING Two independent community pharmacies. PRACTICE DESCRIPTION Perkins Drugs is an independent community pharmacy practice that operates 2 sites in Gallatin, Tennessee. PRACTICE INNOVATION This practice innovation was pharmacist-provided POC influenza and group A Streptococcus (GAS) pharyngitis testing and associated treatment when appropriate. Pharmacists entered into a collaborative pharmacy practice agreement with a physician at a nearby primary care clinic, which allowed for the testing and prescribing of medication under a predetermined decision tree.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ptc-209.html  EVALUATION Patient demographics and satisfaction levels witts and elevate the pharmacist's role within the health care system. The cynomolgus macaque, partly due to its evolutionary closeness to humans, is an important nonhuman primate species used in drug metabolism studies. In humans, expressions of cytochromes P450 (P450s), including the important drug-metabolizing enzyme P450 3A4, are affected by various cytokines. However, this phenomenon has not been fully investigated in cynomolgus macaques. In this study, the effects of cytokines on P450 expression were investigated using the quantitative polymerase chain reaction to evaluate mRNA expression. Hepatocytes from cynomolgus macaques were treated with lipopolysaccharide and various cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-6, interferon-γ, and tumor necrosis factor-α, and the expression levels of 11 P450s were compared with those of solvent-treated controls. Tumor necrosis factor-α significantly decreased cynomolgus P450 2C8 and 2C76 mRNA expression in multiple lots of cynomolgus hepatocytes investigated. IL-1β significantly decreased cynomolgus P450 1A1, 2C8, 2C19, and 2C76 mRNA expression, but increased P450 3A5 mRNA expression in multiple lots of hepatocytes.
