Lactacystin exemplifies the role that serendipity plays in drug discovery and why “finding things without actually looking for them” retains such a pivotal role in the search for the useful properties of chemicals. The first proteasome inhibitor discov
Individual variability in drug response (IVDR) can be a major cause of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and prolonged therapy, resulting in a substantial health and economic burden. Despite extensive research in pharmacogenomics regarding the impact of individual genetic background on pharmacokinetics (PK)...
The identity of the aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor, its activation by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), the subsequent translocation of the PAH-Ah receptor complex into the cell nucleus, and the subsequent increase in the transcription of CYP1A1 resulting in increased cellular levels of its...
(Hb) combines with NO2−to form methemoglobin, (c) the effect of methemoglobin reduces the oxygen supply in red blood cells and drops the oxygen level in the body and (d) higher rate of methemoglobin formations (> 10%) leads to the blueish colouration of the skin, known as a ...
Aged individuals start with higher intracellular sodium levels and have greater sodium increase with injury associated with a decline in myocardial function. The lack of cellular ATP due to hypoxia and mitochondrial dysfunction with aging may limit the function of the sodium-potassium ATPase, resulting...
have shown effectiveness in reducing GUSs activity and diarrhea in clinical studies.254,255However, the potential risks and costs of probiotics must be carefully considered, particularly when administering them to immunocompromised individuals, as they could potentially increase the risk of superinfection. ...

(Wang et al., 2009). Studies also show that hyperglycemia is not a determinant factor for macrovascular disease since whereas an increase inglycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c) from 5.5 to 9.5% implies a two-fold increase in the incidence of macrovascular disease, the same increase in HbA1C implies ...
