  • In Silico Methods for Drug Repositioning and Drug-Drug Interaction Prediction
    In silico Methods for Drug Repositioning and Drug-Drug Interaction Prediction Pathima Nusrath Hameed ORCID: 0000-0002-8118-9823 Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Mechanical Engineering THE UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE May 2018 Copyright © 2018 Pathima Nusrath Hameed All rights reserved. No part of the publication may be reproduced in any form by print, photoprint, microfilm or any other means without written permission from the author. Abstract Drug repositioning and drug-drug interaction (DDI) prediction are two fundamental ap- plications having a large impact on drug development and clinical care. Drug reposi- tioning aims to identify new uses for existing drugs. Moreover, understanding harmful DDIs is essential to enhance the effects of clinical care. Exploring both therapeutic uses and adverse effects of drugs or a pair of drugs have significant benefits in pharmacology. The use of computational methods to support drug repositioning and DDI prediction en- able improvements in the speed of drug development compared to in vivo and in vitro methods. This thesis investigates the consequences of employing a representative training sam- ple in achieving better performance for DDI classification. The Positive-Unlabeled Learn- ing method introduced in this thesis aims to employ representative positives as well as reliable negatives to train the binary classifier for inferring potential DDIs. Moreover, it explores the importance of a finer-grained similarity metric to represent the pairwise drug similarities. Drug repositioning can be approached by new indication detection. In this study, Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification is used as the primary source to determine the indications/therapeutic uses of drugs for drug repositioning.

  • The Genetics of Adverse Drug Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes: a Systematic Review
    SYSTEMATIC REVIEW published: 14 June 2021 doi: 10.3389/fgene.2021.675053 The Genetics of Adverse Drug Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review Assefa M. Baye 1, Teferi G.

Dawed 2* 1 Department of Pharmacology and Clinical Pharmacy, College of Health Sciences, Addis Ababa University, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 2 Division of Population Health and Genomics, Ninewells Hospital and School of Medicine, University of Dundee, Dundee, United Kingdom Background: Adverse drug reactions (ADR) are a major clinical problem accounting for significant hospital admission rates, morbidity, mortality, and health care costs. One-third of people with diabetes experience at least one ADR. However, there is notable interindividual heterogeneity resulting in patient harm and unnecessary medical costs. Genomics is at the forefront of research to understand interindividual variability, and there are many genotype-drug response associations in diabetes with inconsistent findings. Here, we conducted a systematic review to comprehensively examine and synthesize the effect of genetic polymorphisms on the incidence of ADRs of oral glucose-lowering drugs in people with type 2 diabetes. Edited by: Celine Verstuyft, Methods: A literature search was made to identify articles that included specific Université Paris-Saclay, France results of research on genetic polymorphism and adverse effects associated with Reviewed by: oral glucose-lowering drugs.

  • Sulfonylureas
    Therapeutic Class Overview Sulfonylureas INTRODUCTION In the United States (US), diabetes mellitus affects more than 30 million people and is the 7th leading cause of death (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC] 2018). Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most common form of diabetes and is characterized by elevated fasting and postprandial glucose concentrations (American Diabetes Association [ADA] 2019[a]). It is a chronic illness that requires continuing medical care and ongoing patient self-management education and support to prevent acute complications and to reduce the risk of long-term complications (ADA 2019[b]). ○ Complications of T2DM include hypertension, heart disease, stroke, vision loss, nephropathy, and neuropathy (ADA 2019[a]). In addition to dietary and lifestyle management, T2DM can be treated with insulin, one or more oral medications, or a combination of both. Many patients with T2DM will require combination therapy (Garber et al 2019). Classes of oral medications for the management of blood glucose levels in patients with T2DM focus on increasing insulin secretion, increasing insulin responsiveness, or both, decreasing the rate of carbohydrate absorption, decreasing the rate of hepatic glucose production, decreasing the rate of glucagon secretion, and blocking glucose reabsorption by the kidney (Garber et al 2019). Pharmacologic options for T2DM include sulfonylureas (SFUs), biguanides, thiazolidinediones (TZDs), meglitinides, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogs, amylinomimetics, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, combination products, and insulin (Garber et al 2019). SFUs are the oldest of the oral antidiabetic medications, and all agents are available generically. The SFUs can be divided into 2 categories: first-generation and second-generation.

Influx of Ca2 ϩ through L-type Ca2 channels after membrane depolarization induced activation of MEK and ERK through activation of Ras in neurons. Although KBs are frequently used to treat cardiac arrhythmias, their effect on signaling pathways remains unknown. METHODS Primary cultured rat cardiomyocytes were stimulated with four different KBs—4- aminopyridine (4-AP), E-4031, tetra-ethylammonium and quinidine—and phosphorylation of ERK, proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was detected. Action potentials were recorded by use of a conventional microelectrode.
