Prodrug Approaches for CNS Delivery
- J. Rautio, K. Laine, Mikko Gynther, J. Savolainen
- Medicine
- The AAPS Journal
- 5 February 2008
Central nervous system (CNS) drug delivery remains a major challenge, despite extensive efforts that have been made to develop novel strategies to overcome obstacles. Prodrugs are bioreversible… Expand
Large neutral amino acid transporter enables brain drug delivery via prodrugs.
- Mikko Gynther, K. Laine, +6 authors J. Rautio
- Medicine, Chemistry
- Journal of medicinal chemistry
- 25 January 2008
The blood-brain barrier efficiently controls the entry of drug molecules into the brain. We describe a feasible means to achieve carrier-mediated drug transport into the rat brain via the specific,… Expand
Glucose promoiety enables glucose transporter mediated brain uptake of ketoprofen and indomethacin prodrugs in rats.
- Mikko Gynther, J. Ropponen, +5 authors J. Rautio
- Medicine, Chemistry
- Journal of medicinal chemistry
- 29 April 2009
The brain uptake of solutes is efficiently governed by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The BBB expresses a number of carrier-mediated transport mechanisms, and new knowledge of these BBB transporters… Expand
LAT1-mediated prodrug uptake: a way to breach the blood-brain barrier?

Large amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) prodrugs of valproic acid: new prodrug design ideas for central nervous system delivery.
- L. Peura, Kalle Malmioja, +4 authors J. Rautio
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Molecular pharmaceutics
- 9 August 2011
Central nervous system (CNS) drug delivery is a major challenge in drug development because the blood-brain barrier (BBB) efficiently restricts the entry of drug molecules into the CNS at sufficient… Expand
Brain uptake of ketoprofen-lysine prodrug in rats.
- Mikko Gynther, Aaro J Jalkanen, +6 authors J. Rautio
- Chemistry, Medicine
- International journal of pharmaceutics
- 31 October 2010
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) controls the entry of xenobiotics into the brain. Often the development of central nervous system drugs needs to be terminated because of their poor brain uptake. We… Expand

- Chemistry, Medicine
- ChemMedChem
- 1 December 2014
L‐Type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) is a transmembrane protein expressed abundantly at the blood–brain barrier (BBB), where it ensures the transport of hydrophobic acids from the blood to the… Expand
A Selective and Slowly Reversible Inhibitor of l-Type Amino Acid Transporter 1 (LAT1) Potentiates Antiproliferative Drug Efficacy in Cancer Cells.
