EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAre we Able to Harness the Immunomodulatory Power of Cytokines for Novel Autoimmune Disease Treatments?Giuseppe Nocentini, Graziella Migliorati, Carlo RiccardiSince the end of the 1970s, interleukin 2 (IL-2) has been known as a key player in T cell expansion/activation (Watson et al., 1980). In the late 1980s, some groups used IL-2 to stimulate the immune systems of tumour patients (Jacobs et al., 1986). The idea seemed brilliant and several attempts were made, but the results were disappointing (Lim et … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 22 Oct 2015 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Quantitative Pharmacology on Drug DevelopmentAna Ruiz-Garcia, Kourosh ParivarThesuccess of drug development rests over two well defined pillars, a goodunderstanding of the drug’s clinical pharmacology and the appropriate targetpopulation for whom the clinical use is intended. The label for human prescription drugsrequires a good understanding of the pharmacological effects (pharmacodynamicsor PD) and the mechanism of action of the drug as well as detailed informationof the drug’s Pharmacokinetics (PK): … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Apr 2015 · 7,164 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAMINO ACID TRANSPORTERS IN DRUG DISCOVERYMariafrancesca Scalise, Lorena Pochini, Michele Galluccio, Cesare IndiveriAdministered drugs interact with membrane transporters of epithelia, Blood Brain Barrier and other districts influencing their delivery and efficacy. Drugs can also be used as inhibitors of transporters involved in human pathology. Drug-transporter interactions are responsible of off-target effects contributing to toxicity. High Throughput Screening technologies increased the potential applications in therapy or in predicting side effects. These strategies will … …Current Research in Drug Discovery, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 2 Oct 2014 · 7,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Pharmacological Targets Combining Docking and Molecular Dynamics SimulationsIlizaliturri-Flores Ian, Rosas-Trigueros Jorge Luis, Carrillo-Vazquez Jonathan Pablo et al.Studies that include both experimental data and computational simulations (in silico) have increased in number because the techniques are complementary. In silico methodologies are currently an essential component of drug design; moreover, identification and optimization of the best ligand based on the structures of biomolecules are common scientific challenges. Geometric structural properties of biomolecules explain their behavior and interactions and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2013 · 8,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntrinsically Unstructured Proteins: Potential Targets for Drug DiscoveryPathan Salma, Chintan Chhatbar, Sriram SeshadriProblem statement: The function of a protein is dependent on its three-dimensional structure. However, numerous proteins lacking intrinsic globular 3D structure under physiological conditions had been recognized. These proteins are frequently involved in some of the most critical cellular control mechanisms and it appears that their rapid turnover, aided by their unstructured nature in the unbound state, provides a level … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,579 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrophobic, Polar and Hydrogen Bonding Based Drug-Receptor Interaction of TetrahydroimidazobenzodiazepinonesV.K. Sahu, A.K.R. Khan, R.K. Singh, P.P. SinghAnti-HIV drug discovery has been increasingly focusing on HIV-1-RT (reverse transcriptase) as a potential therapeutic target. Tetrahydroimidazobenzodiazepinone (TIBO) belongs to non-nucleoside group of reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs). A computational chemistry study has been performed on a series of tetrahydroimidazo-benzodiazepinones as HIV-1-NNRT inhibitors. Problem statement: In order to search out new drug of desired activity from the lead compounds, there was … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,839 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolymyositis Initiation Involving Amlodipine BesylateR. M. Golding, L. G.F. Giles, E. M. SokoyaBased on extensive blood pressure data and results from a scientific model of the analysis of the rate processes involved in polymyositis the evidence suggests that the polymyositis in a particular patient was initiated by taking the drug amlodipine besylate (norvasc). The method of our analysis should serve as a foundation in handling other drug related interactions. …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Extent of Community Awareness Using Natural Element’s Instead of Using Chemical DrugsMeliz Yuvalı, Ismail Bakır, Ilker EtikanAlternative medicine it is a medicine that is not taught in traditional medicine. It is based on ancient historical foundations and different experiments in treatment without building it on the basis of scientific teacher. Alternative medicine is used in many peoples, especially non-developed peoples. Alternative medicine is used as primary medicine. The evidence of poor quality and knowledge about the … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Oct 2017 · 8,037 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProton Pump Inhibitors in Veterinary MedicineOguzhan Yavuz, Handan Hilal ArslanInhibition of gastric acid secretion is necessary to treat many gastrointestinal diseases. Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) are very effective drugs, used for gastric acid inhibition and therapy of important erosive and non-erosive gastrointestinal disorders in animals as well as humans. In this review, general properties of PPIs, their mode of action, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, adverse effects, drug interactions and clinical and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 5 Jul 2017 · 14,270 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRetinoids and Opioids: Factors in the Development of HIV-Related Neurological DiseaseWalter Royal, III, Joseph L. BryantNeurological disease occurs frequently in HIV-infected individuals and may occur at even higher rates among infected drug users. Among the potential mechanisms that promote such impairment, retinoid deficiency may have selective effects that could both lead to alterations in immune function and enhanced replication of HIV. Studies are currently underway to examine the possible selective effects of retinoid receptor activation … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,768 accessesView PDFCite
