Background
Lovastatin, a type of statin usually considered as a lipid‐lowering drug that lowers blood cholesterol and low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, has been rediscovered to have anticancer activity. Fewer studies exist regarding the effect of lovastatin on esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
Methods
Here, we report that lovastatin shows anticancer effect on ESCC By affecting...
Compared with crystalline molybdenum sulfide (MoS2) employed as an efficient hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalyst, amorphous MoSx exhibits better activity. To synthesize amorphous MoSx, electrodeposition serving as a convenient and time‐saving method is successfully applied. However, the loading mass is hindered by limited mass transfer efficiency and the available active sites require further...
Valbenazine (Ingrezza), a potent and highly selective inhibitor of vesicular monoamine transporter type 2 (VMAT2) through the active metabolite hydrotetrabenazine (HTBZ), has been approved for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia and, very recently, for chorea, which is associated with Huntington's disease. Despite numerous synthetic efforts dedicated to the synthesis of HTBZ, the industrial preparation...
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has been proved as an excellent potential hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalyst. Compared with thermodynamically stable 2H‐MoS2, 1T‐MoS2 exhibits higher conductivity and catalytic activity, whereas it is usually difficult to prepare since of thermodynamically metastable. Herein, a feasible method is reported to fabricate ambient‐stable MoS2 with high concentration...
