CYP1A2 is important for metabolizing various clinically used drugs. Phenotyping of CYP1A2 may prove helpful for drug individualization therapy. Several HPLC methods have been developed for quantification of caffeine metabolites in plasma and urine. Aim of the present study was to develop a valid and simple HPLC method for evaluating CYP1A2 activity during exposure in xenobiotics by the use of human saliva. Caffeine and paraxanthine were isolated from saliva by liquid‐liquid extraction (chlorophorm/isopropanol 85/15v/v). Extracts were analyzed by reversed‐phase HPLC on a C18 column with mobile phase 0.1% acetic acid/methanol/acetonitrile (80/20/2 v/v) and detected at 273nm. Caffeine and paraxanthine elution times were <13min with no interferences from impurities or caffeine metabolites. Detector response was linear (0.10–8.00µg/ml, R2>0.99), recovery was >93% and bias <4.47%. Intra‐ and inter‐day precision was <5.14% (n=6). The limit of quantitation was 0.10µg/ml and the limit of detection was 0.018±0.002µg/mL for paraxanthine and 0.032±0.002µg/ml for caffeine. Paraxanthine/caffeine ratio of 34 healthy volunteers was significantly higher in smokers (p<0.001). Saliva paraxanthine/caffeine ratios and urine metabolite ratios were highly correlated (r=0.85, p<0.001). The method can be used for the monitoring of CYP1A2 activity in clinical practice and in studies relevant to exposure to environmental and pharmacological xenobiotics.

The action of the non-abelian T-dual of the WZW model is related to an appropriate gauged WZW action via a limiting procedure. We extend this type of equivalence to other σ-models with non-abelian isometries and their non-abelian T-duals, focusing on Principal Chiral models. We reinforce and refine this equivalence by arguing that the non-abelian T-duals are the effective backgrounds describing states of an appropriate parent theory corresponding to divergently large highest weight representations. The proof involves carrying out a subtle limiting procedure in the group representations and relating them to appropriate limits in the corresponding backgrounds. We illustrate the general method by providing several non-trivial examples. 相似文献

We are examining the classical problem of unsteady flow in a phreatic semi-infinite aquifer, induced by sudden rise or drawdown
of the boundary head, by taking into account the influence of the inertial effects. We demonstrate that for short times the
inertial effects are dominant and the equation system describing the flow behavior can be reduced to a single ordinary differential
equation. This equation is solved both numerically by the Runge-Kutta method and analytically by the Adomian’s decomposition
approach and an adequate polynomial-exponential approximation as well. The influence of the viscous term, occurring for longer
times, is also taken into account by solving the full Forchheimer equation by a finite difference approach. It is also demonstrated
that as for the Darcian flow, for the case of small fluctuations of the water table, the computation procedure can be simplified
by using a linearized form of the mass balance equation. Compact analytical expressions for the computation of the water stored
or extracted from an aquifer, including viscous corrections are also developed. 相似文献

We study the movement of a surplus process with initial capital u in the presence of two barriers: a lower barrier at zero and an upper barrier at b (b > u). More specifically, we consider the behaviour of the surplus: (a) in continuous time; and (b) only at claim arrival times. For each of these cases, we find the expected time until the process exits the interval [0,b]. We also obtain results related to the undershoot and overshoot of the surplus which, in particular for case (b) above, are derived under the assumption that the distribution of claim sizes and/or claim interarrival times belongs to the mixed Erlang class. In the final section we discuss the implementation of the methods in a number of examples using computer algebra software. These examples illustrate the efficiency of the methods even in fairly complicated cases. 相似文献

We consider the recently proposed non-relativistic Ho?ava–Lifshitz four-dimensional theory of gravity. We study a particular limit of the theory which admits flat Minkowski vacuum and we discuss thoroughly the quadratic fluctuations around it. We find that there are two propagating polarizations of the metric. We then explicitly construct a spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat, black hole solution that represents the analog of the Schwarzschild solution of GR. We show that this theory has the same Newtonian and post-Newtonian limits as GR and thus, it passes the classical tests. We also consider homogeneous and isotropic cosmological solutions and we show that although the equations are identical with GR cosmology, the couplings are constrained by the observed primordial abundance of 4He. 相似文献
