In the evolution of AIE-based drug and gene delivery systems, light-up AIEgens start in real-time monitoring processes evaluation therapeutic responses drug/gene; The delicate structural design to form high-level carriers remarkably enhances drug/gene efficiency; Further, endowed with multifunctionalities, are synergized multimodality therapy achieve augmented efficiency(e282).

BACKGROUND Research for ontology evaluation is scarce. If biomedical ontological datasets and knowledgebases are to be widely used, there needs to be quality control and evaluation for the content and structure of the ontology. This paper introduces how to effectively utilize a semiotic-inspired approach to ontology evaluation, specifically towards drug-related ontologies hosted on the National...

An alternative in vitro approach to drug screening has been the use of human cell cultures for antiviral agents and microbial cell cultures for the assessment of the carcinogenic potential of selected compounds. A number of protozoan species have been also used as drug screens for anti-protozoal agents. The ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis species has been widely utilised as a dru...

Human hepatocytes, with complete hepatic metabolizing enzymes, transporters and cofactors, represent the gold standard for in vitro evaluation of drug metabolism, drug-drug interactions, and hepatotoxicity. Successful cryopreservation of human hepatocytes enables this experimental system to be used routinely. The use of human hepatocytes to evaluate two major adverse drug properties: drug-drug ...

to answer challenge of targeted and controlled drug release in oral delivery various materials were studied by different methods. in the present paper, controlled metal based drug (pd(ii) complex) release manner of β‑lactoglobulin (β-lg) nanoparticles was investigated using mathematical drug release model in order to design and production of a new oral drug delivery system for gastrointestinal ...

The recent developments in the isolation, culturing, and cryopreservation of human hepatocytes, and the application of the cells in drug development are reviewed. Recent advances include the improvement of cryopreservation procedures to allow cell attachment, thereby extending the use of the cells to assays that requires prolong culturing such as enzyme induction studies. Applications of human ...

gamma-scintigraphy is applied extensively in the development and evaluation of pharmaceutical delivery systems, particularly for monitoring formulations in the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts. the radiolabelling is generally achieved by the incorporation of an appropriate radionuclide such as technetium-99m or indium-111 into the formulation or by addition of a non-radioactive isotope s...

BACKGROUND Clinicians often encounter information about drug-drug interactions (DDIs) during clinical practice. This information is found within product information (hardcopy and electronic) and various electronic systems. Prescribers may receive medication-related communications in practice that are distributed by facsimile (fax), mail, or telephone from pharmacies and pharmacy benefit manager...
