1. Computational and Experimental Models for the Prediction of Intestinal Drug Solubility and Absorption
Abstract : New effective experimental techniques in medicinal chemistry and pharmacology have resulted in a vast increase in the number of pharmacologically interesting compounds. However, the number of new drugs undergoing clinical trial has not augmented at the same pace, which in part has been attributed to poor absorption of the compounds. READ MORE

2. In vitro and in silico prediction of drug-drug interactions with transport proteins
Abstract : Drug transport across cells and cell membranes in the human body is crucial for the pharmacological effect of drugs. Active transport governed by transport proteins plays an important role in this process. A vast number of transport proteins with a wide tissue distribution have been identified during the last 15 years. READ MORE

3. Improved Molecular Understanding of Lipid-Based Formulations : for Enabling Oral Delivery of Poorly Water-Soluble Drugs
Abstract : The majority of emerging drug candidates are not suited for conventional oral dosage forms, as they do not dissolve in the aqueous environment of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Consequently, a large number of enabling formulation strategies have emerged. READ MORE

4. Advanced Methods for Evaluation of the Performance of Complex Drug Delivery System
Abstract : Low oral bioavailability of drugs originating from poor aqueous solubility is a common issue in drug development. Various enabling formulations have been presented to circumvent this limitation, many making use of supersaturation. In these, the drug is delivered to the gastro-intestinal lumen in a high energy state e.g. READ MORE

5. Understanding the gastrointestinal mucus and its impact on drug absorption
Abstract : The gastrointestinal mucus is a hydrogel lining the luminal side of the gastrointestinal epithelium. Mucus is vital for gut homeostasis because it protects the epithelium from the noxious external environment. READ MORE
