Exploring BSEP inhibition-mediated toxicity with a mechanistic model of drug-induced liver injury
Inhibition of the bile salt export pump (BSEP) has been linked to incidence of drug-induced liver injury (DILI), presumably by the accumulation of toxic bile acids in the liver.

BU08073 a Buprenorphine Analog with Partial Agonist Activity at mu Receptors in vitro but Long-Lasting Opioid Antagonist Activity in vivo in Mice
Buprenorphine is a potent analgesic with high affinity at μ, δ and κ and moderate affinity at nociceptin opioid (NOP) receptors.

Evaluation of a Three Compartment In Vitro Gastrointestinal Simulator Dissolution Apparatus to Predict In Vivo Dissolution
In vitro dissolution tests are performed for new formulations to evaluate in vivo performance, which is affected by the change of gastrointestinal (GI) physiology, in the GI tract.

Elucidation of Arctigenin Pharmacokinetics After Intravenous and Oral Administrations in Rats: Integration of In Vitro and In Vivo Findings via Semi-mechanistic Pharmacokinetic Modeling
Although arctigenin (AR) has attracted substantial research interests due to its promising and diverse therapeutic effects, studies regarding its biotransformation were limited.

Preparation and Evaluation of High Dispersion Stable Nanocrystal Formulation of Poorly Water-Soluble Compounds by Using Povacoat

A new in vitro system for evaluation of passive intestinal drug absorption: Establishment of a double artificial membrane permeation assay
The aim of this present study was to establish a new in vitro assay, double artificial membrane permeation assay (DAMPA), to evaluate the human intestinal permeability of drugs.

The Poorly Membrane Permeable Antipsychotic Drugs Amisulpride and Sulpiride Are Substrates of the Organic Cation Transporters from the SLC22 Family
Variations in influx transport at the blood-brain barrier might affect the concentration of psychotropic drugs at their site of action and as a consequence might alter therapy response.

Systems pharmacology modeling predicts delayed presentation and species differences in bile acid-mediated troglitazone hepatotoxicity.
Troglitazone (TGZ) causes delayed, life-threatening drug-induced liver injury in some patients but was not hepatotoxic in rats.

Experimental and Computational Prediction of Glass Transition Temperature of Drugs
Glass transition temperature (Tg) is an important inherent property of an amorphous solid material which is usually determined experimentally.

Improving genetic programming for the prediction of pharmacokinetic parameters
The prediction of pharmacokinetic parameters is a crucial phase of the drug discovery process, and the automatization of this task is a hot topic in computational bio-medicine.

Development of nanocrystal formulation of meloxicam with improved dissolution and pharmacokinetic behaviors
The present study aimed to develop nanocrystal formulations of meloxicam (MEL) in order to enhance its biopharmaceutical properties and provide a rapid onset of action. Nanocrystal formulations were...

Synthesis of a novel universal opioid receptor agonist with the 1,3,5-trioxazatriquinane skeleton and its pharmacologies
We designed and synthesized of 1,3,5-trioxazatriquinanes with o- or p-hydroxyphenyl rings as analogs of the κ opioid receptor agonist SYK-146 with m-hydroxyphenyl groups.

Biopharmaceutical profiling of new antitumor pyrazole derivatives
Several new pyrazole derivatives have demonstrated promising antiproliferative and cytotoxic effects, but their poor solubility raised concerns over possible biopharmaceutical limitations.

Pazopanib as third line therapy for metastatic renal cell carcinoma: clinical efficacy and temporal analysis of cytokine profile
Purpose: Pazopanib has been assessed primarily in cytokine refractory or treatment naïve patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Outcomes have been associated...

Model-Based Bioequivalence assessment of a commercial Azithromycin Capsule against Pfizer Zithromax® Tablet marketed in Jamaica
Clinical evidence indicated that effective substitution of azithromycin capsule with a tablet dosage form should be based on evidence of providing equivalent in vivo AUC/MIC ratio at the site of infection.

Isoxazolotacrines as non-toxic and selective butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors for Alzheimer’s disease
Owing to the complex nature of Alzheimer's disease, there is a renewed and growing search for multitarget non-toxictacrines as simple, easily available drugs in order to stop the progress and development of the disease.
