Challenges in Development of Targeted Liposomal Therapeutics
Liposomes, phospholipid vesicles with a bilayered membrane structure, have been widely used as pharmaceutical carriers for drugs and genes, in particular for treatment of cancer. To enhance the efficacy of the liposomal...
A Workflow Example of PBPK Modeling to Support Pediatric Research and Development: Case Study with Lorazepam
The use of physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models in the field of pediatric drug development has garnered much interest of late due to a recent Food and Drug Administration recommendation. The purpose of thi...
Mechanistic Modeling of Monocarboxylate Transporter-Mediated Toxicokinetic/Toxicodynamic Interactions Between γ-Hydroxybutyrate and l -Lactate
Overdose of γ-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) can result in severe respiratory depression. Monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) inhibitors, including l -lactate, increase GHB clearance and represent a potential treatment for...
Single nucleotide polymorphisms of the human M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor gene
The gene encoding the human muscarinic receptor, type 1 (CHRM1), was genotyped from 245 samples of the Coriell Collection (Coriell Institute for Medical Research, Camden, NJ). Fifteen single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP...
Comparisons of pKa and log P values of some carboxylic and phosphonic acids: Synthesis and measurement
The changes in the physiochemical properties accompanying the substitution of a phosphonic acid group for a carboxylic acid group on various heterocyclic platforms was determined. A series of low molecular weight heteroc...
