6. Developmental Aspects of Drug Transport Across the Blood-Brain Barrier
Abstract : The developmental aspect of drug transport across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) was investigated. Microdialysis was used to study unbound morphine BBB transport at different ages in sheep. An in vitro study was performed to find differentially expressed genes in brain capillary-rich fractions of the brain in rats of different ages. READ MORE

7. Translational Aspects of Blood-Brain Barrier Transport and Brain Distribution of Drugs in Health and Disease
Abstract : A high unmet medical need in the area of CNS diseases coincides with high failure rates in CNS drug development. Efficient treatment of CNS disease is constrained by limited entrance of drugs into the brain owing to the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which separates brain from blood. READ MORE

8. Monitoring of antiepileptic drugs using microdialysis : methodological and clinical aspects
Abstract : In therapeutic monitoring of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) the level of unbound drug at the sampling site should ideally equal the unbound concentration at receptor sites. Microdialysis enables direct sampling of the unbound drug concentration and avoids some of the difficulties encountered with ex vivo protein binding. READ MORE

9. Microdialysis as a tool in pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic studies investigating the brain distribution and effect delay of morphine and morphine-6-glucuronide
Abstract : The microdialysis technique was developed as a tool for studying the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamicrelationships of morphine and morphine-6-glucronide (M6G). Concentrations of unbound drug in blood andbrain were monitored in order to elucidate the origin of the observed delay in antinociceptive effect in rats. READ MORE

10. In vitro Pharmacodynamics of Antifungal Agents in the Treatment of Candida Infections
Abstract : Pharmacodynamic studies are important for the optimal use of antimicrobial agents. Combination antifungal therapy may be one method to improve outcome in invasive Candida infections. READ MORE
