Background: Imatinib (IM) is a chemotherapy medication metabolized by CYP3A4 to Ndesmethyl imatinib (NDI), which shows similar pharmacologic activity to the parent drug. Although methods for determination of IM and/or NDI have been developed extensively, only few observations have been addressed to simultaneously determine IM and NDI in biological tissues such as liver, kidney, heart, brain and bone marrow. Methods: A validated LC-MS/MS method was developed for the quantitative determination of imatinib (IM) and N-desmethyl imatinib (NDI) from rat plasma, bone marrow, brain, heart, liver and kidney. The plasma samples were prepared by protein precipitation, and then the separation of the analytes was achieved using an Agilent Zorbax Eclipse Plus C18 column (4.6 × 100 mm, 3.5 µm) with gradient elution running water (A) and methanol (B). Mass spectrometric detection was achieved by a triplequadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray source interface in positive ionization mode. Results: This method was used to investigate the pharmacokinetics and the tissue distributions in rats following oral administration of 25 mg/kg of IM. The pharmacokinetic profiles suggested that IM and NDI are disappeared faster in rats than human, and the tissue distribution results showed that IM and NDI had good tissue penetration and distribution, except for the brain. This is the first report about the large penetrations of IM and NDI in rat bone marrow. Conclusion: The method demonstrated good sensitivity, accuracy, precision and recovery in assays of IM and NDI in rats. The described assay was successfully applied for the evaluation of pharmacokinetics and distribution in the brain, heart, liver, kidney and bone marrow of IM and NDI after a single oral administration of IM to rats.

BACKGROUND Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a budding infectious disease that has affected various countries globally. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of COVID-19 disease on liver and kidney functions and to determine their association with the severity and mortality of disease METHODS A total of 100 confirmed COVID-19 adult patients from Madinah city of Saudi Arabia hospitalized between April 28, and June 30, 2020 were included,and categorized into asymptomatic,mild to moderate and severely ill patients.We analyzed the clinical status of liver and renal functioning in all of the three groups. RESULTS The majority of patients (51%) were diagnosed with mild to moderate disease, 27% of patients were severely ill and 22% of patients were asymptomatic.The liver and renal functional analysis showed that the severity of the COVID-19 patients were significantly associated with the kidney and renal impairments exhibiting higher levels of ALT, AST, Creatinine, Urea levels (P < 0.05). Furthermore, in this study, a novel association is found between high Na and Cl levels with the severely ill COVID-19 patients. CONCLUSIONS We concluded from the present study that a significant percentage of COVID-19 patients continued to have a normal liver and renal function during the course of their disease. Nevertheless, severely ill COVID-19 patients were more prone to have abnormal liver and renal functions. During the course of treatment, the patients had a gradual normalization of their liver and kidney parameters and subsequently achieved a complete normal liver and renal functions upon discharge with no mortality.

The aim of this study was to assess the antioxidant and anti-schistosomal activities of the garlic extract (AGE) and Nigella sativa oil (NSO) on normal and Schistosoma mansoni-infected mice. AGE (125 mg kg-1, i.p.) and NSO (0.2 mg kg-1, i.p.) were administrated separately or in combination for successive 28 days, starting from the 1st day post infection (pi). All mice were sacrificed at weeks 7 pi. Hematological and biochemical parameters including liver and kidney functions were measured to assess the progress of anemia, and the possibility of the tissue damage. Serum total protein level, albumin, globulin and cholesterol were also determined. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels were determined in the liver tissues as biomarkers for oxidative and reducing status, respectively. The possible effect of the treatment regimens on Schistosoma worms was evaluated by recording percentage of the recovered worms, tissue egg and oogram pattern. Result showed that, protection with AGE and NSO prevented most of the hematological and biochemical changes and markedly improved the antioxidant capacity of schistosomiasis mice compared to the infected-untreated ones. In addition, remarkable reduction in worms, tissue eggs and alteration in oogram pattern were recorded in all the treated groups. The antioxidant and antischistosomal action of AGE and NSO was greatly diverse according to treatment regimens. These data point to these compounds as promising agents to complement schistosomiasis specific treatment.

 The effect of myeloid leukemia,  especially cute myeloid leukemia (AML), has been widely noticed on the parameters of liver and kidney functions and the levels of certain hormones. This study aimed to evaluate a number of biochemical parameters of liver and kidney functions and hormones in Iraqi subjects with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Eighty newly diagnosed AML adult patients (40 males and 40 females) and forty healthy individuals (20 males and 20 females) with an age range of 16-75 years were involved in this study during their attendance at the Hematology Department of Baghdad Teaching Hospital/ Medical city in Baghdad province from March 2019 to February 2020. Blood samples were collected from all subjects for the determination of serum levels of the parameters of liver function parameters., kidney function , lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and Erythropoietin (EPO). The results showed that the serum levels of liver function parameters (alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) had highly significant increases (p< 0.01)  in AML patients (85.87±2.49 , 53.93±1.76, 150.87±7.04 U/L, respectively) as compared  to the control (30.58 ±2.04, 22.89 ±0.97, 75.51 ±2.12 U/L, respectively ). Also, the level of kidney function parameters (blood urea, creatinine and uric acid) showed highly significant increases (p< 0.01) in AML patients (58.82 ±1.49, 1.831 ±0.05, 8.34 ±0.15 mg/dl, respectively) as compared to the control (31.10 ±1.03, 0.850 ±0.02, 4.81 ±0.14 mg/dl, respectively). In addition, the level of LDH showed a highly significant increase (p< 0.01) in the patients with AML (657.72 ±80.76 U/L) as compared to the control (166.05 ±6.15 U/L). Moreover, the level of EPO showed a highly significant increase (p<0.01) in the patients with AML (11763.80 ±329.46 pg/ml ) as compared  to the control (316.94 ±34.42 pg/ml).

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is the most frequent endocrine disease in females of reproductive age and is characterized by multifactorial unhealthy conditions related to hormonal unbalance and also to dysmetabolism and inflammation. Recently, increasing evidence has shown that natural plant-based products may play a role in PCOS management. The aim of this one-group pretest–post-test explanatory study was to evaluate, in normal–overweight PCOS women with normal menses, the effectiveness of berberine on: Insulin resistance (IR) by Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA); Inflammation by C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Tumor Necrosis Factor α (TNF-α); Lipid metabolism; Sex hormone profile and symptoms correlated to hyperandrogenism, such as acne, by Global Acne Grading System (GAGS) and Cardiff Acne Disability Index (CADI); Body composition by DXA. Finally, adverse effects were assessed by liver and kidney functions and creatine phosphokinase (CPK). All these parameters were collected at baseline and 60 days after supplementation with a new bioavailable and safe berberine formulation. Twelve females (aged 26.6 ± 4.9, BMI 25.3 ± 3.6) were supplied for 60 days with two tablets/day (550 mg/table) of the bioavailable berberine. Results showed a statistically significant decrease in HOMA, CRP, TNF-α, Triglycerides, testosterone, Body Mass Index (BMI), Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT), fat mass, GAGS and CADI scores, and a statistically significant increase in sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG). Liver and kidney functions and CPK are not statistically significantly different. Therefore, berberine can represent a safe novel dietary supplement, helpful in treatment strategy for PCOS.
