  2. 1. The Hepatobiliary Transport of Rosuvastatin In Vivo

    Author : Ebba Bergman; Hans Lennernäs; Ulf Bondesson; Jack Cook; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rosuvastatin; Biliary excretion; Transport inhibition; Pharmacokinetics; Drug-drug interactions; Hepatobiliary transport; Organic anion transporting polypeptide; OATP; Statins; Gemfibrozil; Cyclosporine; Imatinib; Rifampicin; Canalicular transport; Sinusoidal transport; Hepatic uptake; Hepatic extraction; Biopharmacy; Biofarmaci; Biopharmaceutics; biofarmaci;

    Abstract : In vivo studies of hepatobiliary disposition are challenging. The hepatobiliary system is complex, as its physiological localization, complex cellular structure with numerous transporters and enzymes, and the interindividual variability in protein expression and biliary flow will all affect the in vivo disposition of a drug under investigation.

  5. 3. Intestinal transport and hepatic extraction of fluvastatin in humans and rats

    Author : Anders Lindahl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacy; FARMACI; PHARMACY; FARMACI; galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics;

    Abstract : The oral route is the most convenient route of delivering drugs intended to have systemic effects. One of the key variables determining the rate and extent of absorption from the gastrointestinal tract is the intestinal permeability to the drug. READ MORE

  6. 4. Involvement of Membrane Transport Proteins in Intestinal Absorption and Hepatic Disposition of Drugs Using Fexofenadine as a Model Drug

    Author : Niclas Petri; Hans Lennernäs; Geoffrey Tucker; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biopharmacy; Fexofenadine; OATP; P-glycoprotein; Organic Anion Transporters; ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters; membrane transport proteins; Bioavailability; Biopharmaceutics; Biofarmaci; Biopharmacy; Biofarmaci;

    Abstract : The aims of this thesis were to study the in vivo relevance of membrane transporters for intestinal absorption and the hepatic disposition of drugs in humans and preclinical models. Fexofenadine is a substrate for ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein) and members of the organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP/SLCO) family. READ MORE

  7. 5. Nitric oxide in experimental sepsis

    Author : Peter Dahm; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intensive care; Nitric oxide; Sepsis; NO inhalation; Endotoxin; Acute lung injury; ARDS; Nitric oxide synthase; L-NMMA; L-NAME; Anestesiologi; Anaesthesiology; Pigs; intensivvård;

    Abstract : Nitric oxide (NO) is important in the control of blood pressure and organ perfusion. In septic shock, NO produced by inducible NO-synthase (NOS) has been claimed to mediate pathological vasodilation and cell injury, while NO produced by constitutive NOS may be protective in counteracting hypoperfusion and organ injury.
