Voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels play key roles in induction, transmission,transduction of pathological pain.Nay channels are composed of a pore-forming αt subunit and associated β subunits.Each of
Alpha2-adrenergic receptor (alpha2-AR) is involved in the modulation of pain occurrence and development.It reported that alpha2A-AR controlled the conduction and permeability of gap junction channels
Renal tubule interstitial fibrosis is the common and final pathologic change of kidney in end-stage renal disease.Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress contributes to the pathophysiological mechanisms dur
Many published studies have indicated that the growing application of complementary and alternative medicine, particularly Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) use in combination with conventional cance
Epidemiological studies suggest that an increase of diesel exhaust particles (DEP) in ambient air corresponds to an increase in hospital recorded myocardial infarctions and atherosclerosis after expos
皮肤为阻挡环境物质暴露的主要屏障,可以阻挡许多有害的物质.在评估化合物暴露之伤害时,化合物穿皮能力是重要的考虑因素.过去研究一般利用实验方法测量化合物穿皮能力,然而耗时费力,因此若能开发准确的计算方法预测化合物穿皮能力来初步筛选化合物,再利用实验方法确认化学物质穿透皮肤组织的能力,便能加速化合物暴露风险评估过程并减少实验动物使用,同时也能应用于发展穿皮药物.本研究首先从文献中搜集了197个化合物之

食品安全为全世界的重要议题，食用遭受微生物及加工过程之化学物等污染之食物将会危害人体健康.邻苯二甲酸二(2-乙基己基)酯(diethylhexyl phthalate；DEHP)，常添加于聚氯乙烯产品中以增加材质的延展性，且广泛应用于建材、汽车产品、食品包装、儿童产品与医疗用品等.DEHP因其非以共价键与材料键结，常会因加热或磨损而从塑料产品释放以污染食品及环境.目前人类暴露DEHP多经由饮食途径
