Journal ArticleDOI

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) - pathogenesis, classification, and effect on drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters.

TL;DR: The effects of NAFLD on the regulation, expression and activity of major DMEs and transporters are summarized and the potential mechanisms underlying these alterations are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-Influenza Prodrug Oseltamivir Is Activated by Carboxylesterase Human Carboxylesterase 1, and the Activation Is Inhibited by Antiplatelet Agent Clopidogrel

TL;DR: Con concurrent use of both drugs would inhibit the activation of oseltamivir, thus making this antiviral agent therapeutically inactive, which is epidemiologically of significance because people who receive osel Tamsivir and clopidogrel simultaneously may maintain susceptibility to influenza infection or a source of spreading influenza virus if already infected.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxytocin by intranasal and intravenous routes reaches the cerebrospinal fluid in rhesus macaques: determination using a novel oxytocin assay

TL;DR: CSF penetrance of d5, exogenous OT delivered by IN and IV administration is demonstrated and suggests that peripheral administration of OT does not lead to central release of endogenous OT, and that IN administration offered an advantage compared to IV administration with respect to achieving greater CSF concentrations of OT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secondary Metabolites Produced by the Marine Bacterium Halobacillus salinus That Inhibit Quorum Sensing-Controlled Phenotypes in Gram-Negative Bacteria

TL;DR: A marine gram-positive bacterium is presented that secretes secondary metabolites capable of quenching quorum sensing-controlled behaviors in several gram-negative reporter strains, and it is shown that these nontoxic metabolites may act as antagonists of bacterial quorum sensed by competing with N-acyl homoserine lactones for receptor binding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distribution of cyclosporin in organ transplant recipients.

TL;DR: The distribution characteristics of cyclosporin in blood, plasma and various tissues are clinically important and mathematical models that calculate CsAfu, and hence CsAU, from the concentration of plasma lipoproteins may be a more practical option and should provide a more accurate correlate of effectiveness and toxicity of this drug in transplant recipients than do conventional monitoring procedures.
