The Role of Histidine-Rich Proteins in the Biomineralization of Hemozoin A Dissertation presented to the Bayer School of Natural and Environmental Sciences of Duquesne University As partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Lisa Pasierb August 26, 2005 Dr. David Seybert, thesis director Dr. David W. Wright, advisor In memory of Anna Pasierb April 24, 1924 – May 31, 2005 ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to my advisor, Dr. David W. Wright. His exuberating energy and conviction attracted me to his research group, while his unwavering faith in me taught me more than he could ever know. Secondly, of course, I would like to extend my appreciation to Glenn Spreitzer and James Ziegler, the other two original members of the Wright group, whom initially tried to exert male dominance, but eventually became very faithful friends and colleagues. Finally, to all the other members of the Wright group over the years, thanks for all of your help, suggestions, and camaraderie. -

METABOLISM AND PHARMACOKINETICS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW THERAPEUTICS FOR COCAINE AND OPIOID ABUSE A Dissertation presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Pharmaceutical Sciences in the Department of Pharmaceutics The University of Mississippi by PRADEEP KUMAR VUPPALA April 2012 Copyright © 2012 by Pradeep Kumar Vuppala All rights reserved ABSTRACT Cocaine and opioid abuse are a major public health concern and the cause of significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. The development of effective medication for cocaine and opioid abuse is necessary to reduce the impact of this issue upon the individual and society. The pharmacologic treatment for drug abuse has been based on one of the following strategies: agonist substitution, antagonist treatment, or symptomatic treatment. This dissertation is focused on the role of metabolism and pharmacokinetics in the development of new pharmacotherapies, CM304 (sigma-1 receptor antagonist), mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine (µ-opioid receptor agonists), for the treatment of drug abuse. -

POST-OPERATIVE AUDIT OF G6PD-DEFICIENT MALE CHILDREN WITH OBSTRUCTIVE ADENOTONSILLAR ENLARGEMENT AT UNIVERSITY COLLEGE HOSPITAL, IBADAN, NIGERIA. John EN1, Totyen EL1, Jacob N2, Nwaorgu OGB1 1 .Department of ENT/Head and Neck Surgery, University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria 2. Department of paediatrics, University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria All correspondences and request for reprint to Dr John EN, Department of ENT/Head and Neck Surgery, University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria Email: [email protected] Telephone: +2348036240109 Abstract Background: G6PD deficiency ranks among the commonest hereditary enzyme deficiency worldwide and notable as a predisposing condition to haemolyticcrises. The fear of possible untoward effects is often expressed by parents of G6PD deficient male children scheduled for surgery after obtaining an informed and understood consent. The parental perception of obstructive adenotonsillar enlargement in this condition was also appraised. Methods: A retrospective chart review of all G6PD deficient male children between ages 1 to 7years who had adenotonsillectomy over a 3year period at University college Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria. Results: The patients comprised of 22 G6PD deficient male children diagnosed shortly after birth upon development of neonatal jaundice. Fifteen(68.2%) and 6(27.3%) of the patients subsequently developed episodes of drug- induced haemolysis and non-haemolytic drug reactions prior to undergoing adenotonsillectomy by the otolaryngologists. None of the patients was observed to develop haemolytic crises up to 2weeks post-adenotonsillectomy. From the parental perception and responses in the follow-up period,all 22(100%) patient had resolution of noisy breathing, 20(91%) had improvement of snoring and apnoeic spells. Only 15 (68%) were reported to stop mouth-breathing. -

Although the overall effect of the cytochrome P450 (P450) important role of non-P450 enzymes in the clearance pathways of family of drug-metabolizing enzymes in this capacity cannot be U.S. Food and Drug Administration–approved drugs over the past understated, advancements in the field of non-P450–mediated me- 10 years. Specific examples will detail recent reports of aldehyde tabolism have garnered increasing attention in recent years. This is oxidase, flavin-containing monooxygenase, and other non-P450 perhaps a direct result of our ability to systematically avoid P450 pathways that contribute to the metabolic, pharmacokinetic, or liabilities by introducing chemical moieties that are not susceptible pharmacodynamic properties of xenobiotic compounds. -
