Research progress on nematode drug absorption and metabolism

Caenorhabditis elegans is widely used as a drug screening and research model in various research fields, such as developmental biology, chemical biology, fat metabolism and obesity, aging, neurodegenerative diseases, environmental toxicology, and cancer research. Because the nematode is very small (the adult is only about 1 mm), the different drug administration methods lead to different drug absorption efficiency, so there are differences between different research results and it is difficult to make comparative analysis.

The research group of Luo Huairong of Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences used low-water resveratrol and water-soluble fluorouridine (FUDR) as reference drugs. Five common methods of administration were used to treat nematodes separately. And the absorption efficiency of water-soluble drugs reveals the law of drug absorption and metabolism under different administration methods of nematodes. The results of the study showed that the concentrations of resveratrol and FUDR gradually increased in the nematodes cultured by the five methods of administration, reached the highest in 12-24 hours, and slowly decreased with the cultivation time. At the same time, the higher the administered concentration, the faster the nematode metabolism and efflux. Nematodes have similar absorption and metabolism patterns for low-water resveratrol and water-soluble FUDR. Because the drug in the culture medium used for cultivating nematodes is absorbed by live bacteria, the concentration of the drug in the culture medium decreases rapidly, and the absorption efficiency of the nematode edible bacteria is higher than that when the edible bacteria are alive. Among the five culture methods, the nematodes cultured by NGM dead method and liquid growing method have the highest efficiency of absorbing drugs. The drug concentration in the nematode can be converted into the dose of the drug in the mouse, which provides a bridge between the dose of the nematode and the dose of the mammal.

Floor Lamp

Floor lamps are often used for local lighting, not comprehensive, but to emphasize the convenience of movement, for the creation of the corner atmosphere is very practical. Floor lamp lighting way if the direct downward projection, suitable for reading and other activities that require mental concentration, if the indirect lighting, you can adjust the overall light changes. The lower side of the shade of the floor lamp should be more than 1.8 meters from the ground.
The shade of the floor lamp requires simple and generous, decorative. The tube type shade is more popular, the Chinese lamp shape, lantern shape is also more used. Some people like to prepare their own shade, like the use of film white film and painting made into a large lampshade, very interesting.

Floor lamp brackets are mostly made of metal, spun wood or the use of natural forms of materials.

The light is more concentrated, the local effect is obvious, and the influence on the surrounding area is small. The light of the lamp shines on the ceiling diffused down, evenly scattered in the room. This "indirect" lighting, light is softer, less irritating to the human eye can also be a certain degree of relaxation. Now popular in some modern minimalist home design, the use of such lamps is quite common.
