Based upon the known potential interaction between omeprazole (OMP) and clopidogrel (CLOP), the current study was designed to evaluate the effect of CLOP on disposition of OMP and its two major metabolites, 5-hydroxyomeprazole (5-OH-OMP) and omeprazole sulfone (OMP-S) in healthy clinical subjects. A randomized, open label, 2-period, crossover study was designed. Twelve volunteers were selected,...

A large set of Bacillus megaterium CYP102A1 mutants are known to metabolize various drugs to form human metabolites. Omeprazole (OMP), a proton pump inhibitor, has been widely used as an acid inhibitory agent for the treatment of gastric acid hypersecretion disorders. It is primarily metabolized by human CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 to 59-OH OMP and a sulfone product, respectively. It was recently report...

A large set of Bacillus megaterium CYP102A1 mutants are known to metabolize various drugs to form human metabolites. Omeprazole (OMP), a proton pump inhibitor, has been widely used as an acid inhibitory agent for the treatment of gastric acid hypersecretion disorders. It is primarily metabolized by human CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 to 5'-OH OMP and a sulfone product, respectively. It was recently report...

BACKGROUND We determined whether the market exclusivity incentive of the European Orphan Drug Regulation results in a market monopoly or that absence of another Orphan Medicinal Product (OMP) for the same rare disorder, a so-called follow-on OMP, is a matter of time or market size. In the interest of rare disorder patients better understanding of the effect of the market exclusivity incentive o...

Orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) is a canonical greedy algorithm for sparse signal reconstruction. When the signal of interest is block sparse, i.e., it has nonzero coefficients occurring in clusters, the block version of OMP algorithm (i.e., Block OMP) outperforms the conventional OMP. In this paper, we demonstrate that a new notion of block restricted isometry property (Block RIP), which is ...

Background: Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) constitute the main structure and about half of the cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria. The OMPs of Escherichia coli (E. coli) play an important role in its drug resistance. Previous studies have shown that the OMPs of E. coli enhance its pathogenic effects by helping the bacterium to evade the immune defense and promote its adsorption to host cells. ...

OBJECTIVE enthesitis-related arthritis subtype of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA-ERA) clinically resembles reactive arthritis (ReA). In patients with ReA the immune response is targeted at the outer membrane protein (OMP) of Salmonella typhimurium. We studied the immune response in JIA-ERA to S. typhimurium OMP. METHODS synovial fluid mononuclear cells (SFMC) and peripheral blood mononucl...

Poly(A)+ mRNA was isolated from rat olfactory mucosa and translated in a rabbit reticulocyte cell-free protein synthesizing system. Olfactory marker protein (OMP) of Mr 18,500 was faithfully produced by this system upon addition of mucosal mRNA. The protein was identified by radioimmunoprecipitation with specific anti-OMP serum and by competitive displacement of the radioactive product with aut...
