Many drugs are administered at sites that are remote from their site of action. The most common route of drug delivery is the oral route. The optimal physicochemical properties to allow high… (More)
Cytochrome P450 mediated metabolism of methyleugenol to the proximate carcinogen 1'-hydroxymethyleugenol has been investigated in vitro. Kinetic studies undertaken in liver microsomes from control… (More)
The occurrence of idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions during late clinical trials or after a drug has been released can lead to a severe restriction in its use and even in its withdrawal. Metabolic… (More)
A human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) strain was isolated in a CD4+ T-lymphocyte culture established from a healthy seropositive Australian Aboriginal. This isolate, identified as… (More)

Using physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling, we predicted the magnitude of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) for studies with rifampicin and seven CYP3A4 probe substrates administered i.v. (10… (More)
cytochrome P450 enzyme system (3). The 1 9-hydroxy metabolCytochrome P450 mediated metabolism of methyleugenol ites are then sulfated, yielding 1 9-sulfooxy metabolites (4) to the proximate… (More)
Development of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and their functional derivatives represents a growing segment of the development pipeline in the pharmaceutical industry. More than 25 mAbs and derivatives… (More)
INTRODUCTION
Safety pharmacology is integral to the non-clinical safety assessment of new chemical entities prior to first administration to humans. The zebrafish is a well established model organism… (More)
Elevated cytokine levels are known to downregulate expression and suppress activity of cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs). Cytokine-modulating therapeutic proteins (TPs) used in the treatment of… (More)
F.W.R. Brambell deduced the existence of a protective receptor for IgG, the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn), long before its discovery in the early to mid-1990s. With the coincident, explosive… (More)
