  • In Silico Pharmacodynamics, Toxicity Profile and Biological Activities of the Saharan Medicinal Plant Limoniastrum Feei
    Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences Article http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s2175-97902017000300061 In silico pharmacodynamics, toxicity profile and biological activities of the Saharan medicinal plant Limoniastrum feei Ouahab Ammar* Department of Pharmacy, Faculty of Medical Sciences, University of Batna 2, Algeria In-silico study was performed to find the pharmacodynamics, toxicity profiles and biological activities of three phytochemicals isolated from Limoniastrum feei (Plumbagenaceae). Online pharmacokinetic tools were used to estimate the potential of Quercetin, kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (astragalin) and quercitin-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside as specific drugs. Then the prediction of potential targets of these compounds were investigated using PharmMapper. Auto-Dock 4.0 software was used to investigate the different interactions of these compounds with the targets predicted earlier. The permeability of quercetin s rule of five. Hematopoietic prostaglandin (PG) D׳ was found within the range stated by Lipinski synthase (HPGDS), farnesyl diphosphate synthetase (FPPS) and the deoxycytidine kinase (DCK) were potential targets for quercetin, astragalin and quercetin 7, respectively. Quercetin showed antiallergic and anti-inflammatory activity, while astragalin and quercetin 7 were predicted to have anticancer activities. The activity of Astragalin appeared to be mediated by FPPS inhibition. The inhibition of DCK was predicted as the anticancer mechanisms of quercetin 7. The compounds showed interesting interactions and satisfactory binding energies when docked into their targets. These compounds are proposed to have activities against a variety of human aliments such as allergy, tumors, muscular dystrophy, and diabetic cataracts. Keywords: Limoniastrum feei/pharmacokinetics.

This article is the second in a series of articles that aims to enhance the understanding of pharmacological principles relevant to nuclear medicine. This article will build on the introductory concepts, terminology and principles of pharmacodynamics explored in the first article in the series. Specifically, this article will focus on the basic principles associated with pharmacokinetics. Article 3 will outline pharmacology relevant to pharmaceutical interventions and adjunctive medications employed in general nuclear medicine, the fourth pharmacology relevant to pharmaceutical interventions and adjunctive medications employed in nuclear cardiology, the fifth the pharmacology related to contrast media associated with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and the final article will address drugs in the emergency trolley. 2 Introduction As previously outlined (1), pharmacology is the scientific study of the action and effects of drugs on living systems and the interaction of drugs with living systems (1-7). For general purposes, pharmacology is divided into pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics (Figure 1). The principle of pharmacokinetics is captured by philosophy of Paracelsus (medieval alchemist); “only the dose makes a thing not a poison” (1,8,9).

Satterwhite15 Received 23 May 2017; accepted 21 November 2017 Abstract. The American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS) biosimilar focus group on nonclinical and clinical assays has developed this manuscript to guide the industry on best practices and testing strategies when developing neutralizing antibody (NAb) assays for biosimilar programs. The immunogenicity assessment to biosimilar and originator drug products is one of the key aspects of clinical programs for biosimilars to demonstrate biosimilarity. Establishing that there are no clinically meaningful differences in immune response between a proposed product and the originator product is a key element in the demonstration of biosimilarity. It is critical to collect, evaluate, and compare the safety and immunogenicity data from the clinical pharmacology, safety, and/or efficacy studies especially when the originator drug product is known to have potential for immune-mediated toxicity. This manuscript aims to provide a comprehensive review and recommendations on assay formats, critical reagents, approaches to method development, and validation of the neutralizing antibody assays in extrapolation within the scope of biosimilar drug development programs. Even if there are multiple options on the development and validation of NAb assays for biosimilar programs, the type of drug and its MoA will help determine the assay format and technical platform for NAb assessment (e.g., cell-based or non-cell-based assay).

  • Primer on Forensic Toxicology
    1 OSAC’s purpose is to strengthen the nation's use of forensic science by providing technical leadership necessary to facilitate the development and promulgation of consensus-based documentary standards and guidelines for forensic science, promoting standards and guidelines that are fit-for-purpose and based on sound scientific principles, promoting the use of OSAC standards and guidelines by accreditation and certification bodies, and establishing and maintaining working relationships with other similar organizations. 2 The six subcommittees of the Chemistry/Instrumental Analysis SAC include Fire Debris and Explosives, Geological Materials, Gunshot Residue, Materials (Trace), Seized Drugs and Toxicology. 3 This resource is intended to provide a brief overview, or the “what”, “why”, “where”, and “how”, of the field of Forensic Toxicology. 4 Toxicology is the study of drugs and chemicals on biological systems. Toxicology relies on information from numerous scientific and social disciplines as well as engineering and statistics. 5 Forensic toxicology deals with the application of toxicology to cases and issues where adverse effects of the use of impairing, toxic and lethal concentrations of drugs have administrative or medicolegal consequences, and where the results are likely to be used in a legal setting. 6 Other career opportunities exist in hospitals, universities, and industry. 7 Paracelsus is often credited with one of the original conceivers of toxicology. Manly Hall, a famous author of the 19th Century called him "the precursor of chemical pharmacology and therapeutics and the most original medical thinker of the sixteenth century.“ A principle tenet of forensic toxicology is that the “dose makes something a poison”. For example, water is generally a safe and essential beverage all living organisms require to live, but if taken in an excessive amount this can interfere with a body’s chemistry and create a toxic environment.

  • QUESTION 1 (Principle: the Graded Dose-Response Curve)
    Pharmacology and Therapeutics Pharmacodynamics Small Group IV August 15, 2019, 10:30am-12:00 PM FACILITATORS GUIDE QUESTION 1 (Principle: The Graded Dose-Response Curve) A 34-year old man is brought to the emergency room in a disheveled and unresponsive state. His vital signs reveal a heart rate of 26 bpm and he is apneic. He has no palpable blood pressure, but has a palpable slow pulse in his femoral artery. Fresh needle track marks, consistent with recent injections, are present in his left antecubital fossa (elbow pit). He is suspected to be a victim of the epidemic of superpotent heroin, “China White”. Heroin overdose is typically treated by I.V. administration of naloxone (a drug that binds to the same site on the mu-opioid receptors as heroin, but without the narcotic effects of heroin). Despite oral intubation, mechanical ventilation, advanced cardiac life support measures, and large intravenous doses of naloxone, the patient died. Part 1 (Teaching Point: Graded Dose Response Curves for Various Opiate Receptor Agonists) China white is the street name for 3-methyl-fentanyl, a short-acting synthetic opioid agonist estimated to have 10,000 times the potency of heroin at mu-opioid receptors. Pharmaceutical fentanyl has a potency of 100 times that of heroin, while the commonly used opioid analgesic morphine is approximately 5 times less potent than heroin. All four drugs are equally efficacious with respect to the effects produced by their activation of m opioid receptors. If the potency of heroin at mu-opioid receptors is 10 mg/kg, using the axes below, draw semi-logarithmic dose- response curves to show the expected relative relationships between heroin, fentanyl, morphine and China White (3-methyl fentanyl), indicate their respective ED50’s and show in the figure how these are values are determined.
