Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)-E-gel enables robust preclinical study of voluntary THC consumption in mice, revealing sex-dependent psychotomimetic effects that are valuable for understanding cannabimimetic responses.
The number and effects of mutations leading to full drug resistance crucially determine treatment failure probability and should be used to inform antimicrobial treatment strategies with regard to avoidance of resistance emergence.

Pharmacokinetics, the venerable science that measures the dynamics and concentrations an administered drug attains in organs, has been extended to the subcellular level – organelles – by a generalizable new paradigm.
Shortened hepatitis C therapy, with retreatment if needed, can reduce antiviral drug use in patients with mild liver disease, but day 2 viral load is not an adequate predictor of outcome.
