DITOP: drug-induced toxicity related protein database
MOTIVATION Drug-induced toxicity related proteins (DITRPs) are proteins that mediate adverse drug reactions (ADRs) or toxicities through their binding to drugs or reactive metabolites. Collection of these proteins facilitates better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of drug-induced toxicity and the rational drug discovery. Drug-induced toxicity related protein database (DITOP) is such a...
متن کاملGauging reactive metabolites in drug-induced toxicity.
Over the past decades, it has become abundantly clear that enzymes evolved to detoxify and eliminate foreign chemicals from the body, occasionally generate highly reactive metabolites which have toxicological implications. To decrease the probability of late clinical failure or market withdrawal, there has been an increased prioritization on understanding key metabolic processes that might caus...
متن کاملDrug-Induced Oxidative Stress and Toxicity
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a byproduct of normal metabolism and have roles in cell signaling and homeostasis. Species include oxygen radicals and reactive nonradicals. Mechanisms exist that regulate cellular levels of ROS, as their reactive nature may otherwise cause damage to key cellular components including DNA, protein, and lipid. When the cellular antioxidant capacity is exceeded, o...
متن کاملDrug Induced Liver Toxicity: a Survey
Liver toxicity refers to damage done to the liver by medications and chemicals. The liver is an essential organ to the human body. Located on the right side of the body behind the ribs, the liver stores nutrients and produces proteins important to remain healthy. One of the main functions of the liver is to remove toxic substances from the bloodstream. This process may be interrupted if toxins ...
متن کاملDrug Toxicity
Physicians prescribe drugs to prevent or treat disease. Those same drugs can be toxic to certain patients, however, because of genetic predisposition, nonselective action, or inappropriate use or administration of the drug. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) spends a significant portion of its $1 trillion budget to ensure that new drugs are not overtly or unnecessarily dangero...
