  2. 1. Pharmacokinetic, efficacy and safety modeling of new treatments against drug-resistant tuberculosis

    Author : Lénaïg Tanneau; Mats Karlsson; Elin Svensson; Italo Poggesi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; pharmacometrics; nonlinear mixed effect models; tuberculosis; drug-resistance; bedaquiline; delamanid; metabolite; drug-drug interactions; QTc interval; transaminases; time-to-positivity; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Abstract : Tuberculosis (TB) is an ancient infectious disease that remains one of the greatest killers on the planet. Its eradication is impeded by the development of resistance to first-line treatment. Each year half a million patients are infected with drug-resistant (DR) TB. READ MORE

    Abstract : Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities are driving climate change, but the pending crisis could be mitigated by a circular carbon economy where released CO2 is recycled into commodity chemicals. Autotrophic microbes can make a contribution by producing chemicals, such as biofuels, from CO2 and renewable energy. READ MORE

    Abstract : Over the last decade environmental agencies worldwide have escalated their work to phase out animal testing for the purposes of chemical regulation. Meanwhile the number of commercially available chemicals and the requirements for hazard assessments have both increased, creating a large need for substitution of traditional in vivo assays with in vitro tests.

  6. 4. Transient State Fluorescence Microscopy - method development and biological applications : Exploiting the dark states of fluorophores to measure oxygen concentrations, redox state, Förster resonance energy transfer and membrane viscosity

    Author : Thiemo Spielmann; Jerker Widengren; Karsten König; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Transient States imaging TRAST ; Triplet State imaging; fluorescence microscopy; modulated excitation; triplet state; radical state; trans-cis isomerisation;

    Abstract : Due to their long lifetime, triplet, redox and other transient states of fluorophores are highly sensitive to the micro-environment. Imaging their spatial distribution in biological samples can therefore help answer interesting questions about the metabolism, molecular interactions and dynamics in living cells. READ MORE

  7. 5. Consequences of CYP2D6 polymorphism for the disposition and dynamics of tolterodine : a novel drug in the treatment of urinary bladder overactivity

    Author : Niclas Brynne; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : active metabolite; CYP2D6; CYP3A4; disposition; drug interaction; fluoxetine; ketoconazole; metabolic ratio; pharmacokinetics; tolterodine;

    Abstract : The pharmacokinetics and pharmacological effects of tolterodine were studied in man following administration of increasing oral and intravenous single-doses. The influence of metabolic phenotype in extensive and poor metabolizers of debrisoquine was determined. READ MORE
