  1. 1. ATP-Binding Cassette Efflux Transporters and Passive Membrane Permeability in Drug Absorption and Disposition

    Author : Pär Matsson; Per Artursson; Ulf Norinder; Peter Swaan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Pharmaceutics; ATP-binding cassette; ABC transporter; P-gp; P-glycoprotein; ABCB1; BCRP; Breast cancer resistance protein; ABCG2; MRP2; Multidrug-resistance associated protein 2; ABCC2; Membrane permeability; Drug transport; Active transport; Passive diffusion; Multivariate data analysis; PLS; OPLS; QSAR; Galenisk farmaci;

    Abstract : Transport into and across the cells of the human body is a prerequisite for the pharmacological action of drugs. Passive membrane permeability and active transport mechanisms are major determinants of the intestinal absorption of drugs, as well as of the distribution to target tissues and the subsequent metabolism and excretion from the body.

  2. 2. Improved CoMFA Modeling by Optimization of Settings : Toward the Design of Inhibitors of the HCV NS3 Protease

    Author : Shane Peterson; Anders Karlén; Anja Sandström; Ulf Norinder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Pharmaceutical chemistry; CoMFA; 3D-QSAR; model validation; Docking; SAR; hepatitis C virus; HCV; NS3 protease inhibitor; Farmaceutisk kemi;

    Abstract : The hepatitis C virus (HCV), with a global prevalence of roughly 2%, is among the most serious diseases today. Among the more promising HCV targets is the NS3 protease, for which several drug candidates have entered clinical trials. READ MORE

  3. 3. In vitro and in silico Predictions of Hepatic Transporter-Mediated Drug Clearance and Drug-Drug Interactions in vivo

    Author : Anna Vildhede; Per Artursson; Maria Karlgren; Maria Kjellsson; Ulf Norinder; Kim Brouwer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; OATP1B1; OATP1B3; OATP2B1; NTCP; drug transporters; human hepatocytes; atorvastatin; pitavastatin; proteomics; sandwich-cultured human hepatocytes; SCHH; mechanistic modeling; in vitro-in vivo extrapolation; transport inhibition; hepatic uptake; hepatocyte isolation; transporter contribution; Biopharmaceutics; Biofarmaci;

    Abstract : The liver is the major detoxifying organ, clearing the blood from drugs and other xenobiotics. The extent of hepatic clearance (CL) determines drug exposure and hence, the efficacy and toxicity associated with exposure. Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) that alter the hepatic CL may cause more or less severe outcomes, such as adverse drug reactions. READ MORE
