A polyphenol-rich cranberry extract protects from diet-induced obesity, insulin resistance and intestinal inflammation in association with increased Akkermansia spp. population in the gut microbiota of mice (2014, background): “Singletons (OTUs with a unique sequence occurring only once among all reads) were discarded at this step.”
Preclinical Development and Clinical Translation of a PSMA-Targeted Docetaxel Nanoparticle with a Differentiated Pharmacological Profile (2012, methodology): “Rats received single intravenous doses of NPs at 1000, 1500, or 2000 mg/kg [about 6000, 9000, and 12,000 mg/m(2), respectively, corresponding to up to 20 g of NP in an adult human of average body surface area (32)] and were monitored for clinical observations, changes in body weight, and blood chemi”
Metformin inhibits mitochondrial complex I of cancer cells to reduce tumorigenesis (2014, neutral): “In our study, metformin was administered to drinking water at a concentration of 1.25 mg/ml, approximately 250 mg/kg. Conversion of doses from mice to human is achieved using a formula based on body surface area normalization (Reagan-Shaw et al., 2008).”
