Progress And Perspectives On Targeting Nanoparticles For Brain Drug Delivery
Abstract Due to the ability of the bloodbrain barrier BBB to prevent the entry of drugs into the brain it is a challenge to treat central nervous system disorders pharmacologically The development of nanotechnology provides potential to overcome this problem In this review the barriers to braintargeted drug delivery are reviewed including the BBB
PBPK Modeling And Simulation In Drug Research And Development
Abstract Physiologically based pharmacokinetic PBPK modeling and simulation can be used to predict the pharmacokinetic behavior of drugs in humans using preclinical data It can also explore the effects of various physiologic parameters such as age ethnicity or disease status on human pharmacokinetics as well as guide dose and dose regiment selecti...
Structure-based Drug Discovery For Prion Disease Using A Novel Binding Simulation
Abstract The accumulation of abnormal prion protein PrPSc converted from the normal cellular isoform of PrP PrPC is assumed to induce pathogenesis in prion diseases Therefore drug discovery studies for these diseases have focused on the protein conversion process We used a structurebased drug discovery algorithm termed Nagasaki University Docking...
