  1. 1. Computational and Experimental Models for the Prediction of Intestinal Drug Solubility and Absorption

    Author : Christel A. S. Bergström; Per Artursson; Han van de Waterbeemd; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutics; aqueous drug solubility; melting point; intestinal drug permeability; pH-dependent solubility; multivariate data analysis; molecular descriptors; molecular surface area; in silico modeling; drug absorption; Galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics; Galenisk farmaci;

    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. 2. In vitro and in silico prediction of drug-drug interactions with transport proteins

    Author : Gustav Ahlin; Per Artursson; Christel Bergström; Johan Karlsson; Jörg König; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Solute carrier; SLC transporter; OCT1; Organic cation transporter 1; SLC22A1; OATP1B1; SLCO1B1; Organic anion transporting peptide 1B1; Drug transport; Active transport; Genetic polymorphism; Cell lines; Gene expression; Multivariate data analysis; OPLS; Pharmaceutics; Galenisk farmaci; Biopharmacy; Biofarmaci; galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics; Biopharmaceutics; biofarmaci;

    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. 3. Improved Molecular Understanding of Lipid-Based Formulations : for Enabling Oral Delivery of Poorly Water-Soluble Drugs

    Author : Linda C. Alskär; Christel Bergström; Brendan Griffin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; lipid-based formulation; poorly water-soluble drug; solubility prediction; molecular properties; lipid digestion; precipitation; solid state; intestinal solubilization; in vitro in vivo correlation IVIVC ; coadministration; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    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. 4. Advanced Methods for Evaluation of the Performance of Complex Drug Delivery System

    Author : Caroline Alvebratt; Christel Anna Sofia Bergström; Maria Strömme; Caitriona O'Driscoll; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; amorphous solid dispersion; coadministration; digestion; dissolution; drug absorption; enabling formulation; in vitro assay; lipid-based formulation; mesoporous carrier; supersaturation; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    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. 5. Understanding the gastrointestinal mucus and its impact on drug absorption

    Author : Vicky Barmpatsalou; Christel Bergström; Eva Karlsson; Betty Lomstein Pedersen; Hanne Mørck Nielsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mucus; gastrointestinal; pigs; dogs; physiology; colonic; in vitro assay; drug diffusion; macromolecules;

    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
