Perspectives in Pharmacology Mechanisms of Endocannabinoid Inactivation: Biochemistry and Pharmacology
The endocannabinoids, a family of endogenous lipids that activate cannabinoid receptors, are released from cells in a stimulus-dependent manner by cleavage of membrane lipid precursors. After release, the endocannabinoids are rapidly deactivated by uptake into cells and enzymatic hydrolysis. Endocannabinoid reuptake occurs via a carrier-mediated mechanism, which has not yet been molecularly cha...
متن کاملInsulin--history, biochemistry, physiology and pharmacology.
The discovery of insulin was a seminal event in both the study of diabetes and the care of diabetic pa tients. The development of procedures for purifying and modifying insulin took an additional 30 years. In his masterful rendition of these developments, Mi chael Bliss recounts the remarkable story surrounding the discovery of insulin and notes that the discovery of insulin at the University o...
متن کاملBiochemical and clinical pharmacology of 5-fluorouracil.
The cellular and clinical pharmacology of fluoropyrimidines is characterized by marked interpatient variability in tumor response and patient tolerance. Understanding the metabolic pathways followed by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) has led to new strategies to optimize therapy with these important agents. The "fluoropyrimidine phenotype" of tumor cells can be used to determine whether therapy with thes...
متن کاملBiochemistry , Pharmacology Ano Therapeutic Use of Urea
Modem dermatology looks more and more closely in to "old" substances wich proved to be effecti ve and safe. In addition, most of them are much cheaper than the new compounds. Urea is one of the o ld substances which were used more and more often in topica( therapy of dermatoses, either alone or in combination wi th a steroid, anthralin, retinoic acid or salicylic acid. In this paper, biochemist...
متن کاملConic tangency equations and Apollonius problems in biochemistry and pharmacology
The Apollonius Circle Problem dates to Greek antiquity, circa 250 BC. Given three circles in the plane, find or construct a circle tangent to all three. This was generalized by replacing some circles with straight lines. Vieta [19] (or Viète) solved the problem using circle inversions before 1580. Two generations later, Descartes considered a special case in which all four circles are mutually ...
