  2. 1. Proteomic and Functional Analysis of In Vitro Systems for Studies of Drug Disposition in the Human Small Intestine and Liver

    Author : Magnus Ölander; Per Artursson; Pär Matsson; Edward L. LeCluyse; Volker Lauschke; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; proteomics; drug disposition; ADMET; drug transport; drug metabolism; hepatotoxicity; small intestine; liver; caco-2; human hepatocytes; cryopreservation; apoptosis; liver zonation; non-parenchymal cells; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Abstract : To reach the bloodstream, an orally administered drug must be absorbed through the small intestine and avoid extensive clearance in the liver. Estimating these parameters in vitro is therefore important in drug discovery and development. READ MORE

  4. 2. Development and Applications of Microfluidic Devices for Liver-on-a-Chip Studies

    Abstract : Modeling the human physiology in vitro is a challenging task, yet one of importance for the development of drugs and the study of diseases. To better address the complexities of human organs, microfluidic systems called organs-on-chips are being developed to emulate organ-specific environments for cell culture. READ MORE
