Ustekinumab (UST) is a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody that targets to the share p40 subunit of interleukin-12(IL-12) and IL-23. Evidence has shown UST therapy well tolerated effective in inducing clinical response refractory CD(Crohn's disease) dose escalation recapturing over half patients. However, no predictive factor been reported be helpful for treatment practice. Additionally, there were few reports about therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) administration China due its late launch time...

In cardiac tissues, the expression of multiple connexins (Cx40, Cx43, Cx45, and Cx30.2) is a requirement for proper development function. Gap junctions formed by these have distinct permeability gating mechanisms. Since single cell can express more than one connexin isoform, formation hetero-multimeric gap junction channels provides tissue with an enormous repertoire combinations to modulate intercellular communication. To study further perm-selectivity properties containing Cx43 we studied...
