Current standard care drugs are associated with undesirable side effects, treatment failures, and an increasing incidence of drug resistance. As follow-up to a high-throughput screening of an approved drug libr...

Utility of whole-body autoradioluminography in drug discovery for the quantification of tritium-labeled drug candidates.

Whole-body autoradioluminography (WBAL) has evolved as the preferred method for conducting tissue distribution studies that are required for regulatory filings of a new drug entity (DE) and for projecting tissue dosimetry in human mass balance studies. Four experiments were designed to assess WBAL utility using tritium as early as lead development in the drug discovery process. The objective of...

A novel medium-throughput biological assay system for HTLV-1 infectivity and drug discovery

Objective(s): Here, a reporter cell line containing two reporter vectors were developed, in order to monitor the Human T-Lymphotropic Virus type1(HTLV-1) infectivity and the cell viability simultaneously. Materials and Methods: The reporter cell line was constructed by stably transfected baby hamster's kidney cell line (BHK-21), with the genomes expressing two different reporters in separate pl...

Repurposing of drug candidates for treatment of skin cancer

Skin cancers are highly prevalent malignancies that affect millions of people worldwide. These include melanomas and nonmelanoma skin cancers. Melanomas are among the most dangerous cancers, while nonmelanoma skin cancers generally exhibit a more benign clinical pattern; however, they may sometimes be aggressive and metastatic. Melanomas typically appear in body regions exposed to the sun, alt...
