  1. 11. Role of the Blood-Brain Barrier in Stereoselective Distribution and Delay in H1 Receptor Occupancy of Cetirizine in the Guinea Pig Brain

    Författare :Anubha Gupta; Margareta Hammarlund-Udenaes; Niclas E. Jonsson; Joseph W. Polli; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacokinetics Pharmacotherapy; Cetirizine enantiomers; Brain distribution; Microdialysis; H1 receptor occupancy; Stereoselective-pharmacokinetics; Farmakokinetik Farmakoterapi; PHARMACY; FARMACI;

    Sammanfattning : Cetirizine, an H1-antihistamine, is prescribed for allergic disorders. It exists as a racemic mixture, with levocetirizine being the active enantiomer. The central nervous system side-effects of H1-antihistamines are caused by their penetration into the brain. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Mechanism-Based Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Modelling of Paclitaxel

    Författare :Anja Henningsson; Mats O. Karlsson; Lena Friberg; Iñaki F. Trocóniz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacokinetics Pharmacotherapy; Pharmacokinetics; Pharmacodynamics; Mechanism-based; Modelling; Myelosuppression; Paclitaxel; Cremophor EL; NONMEM; Farmakokinetik Farmakoterapi; PHARMACY; FARMACI;

    Sammanfattning : Paclitaxel (Taxol®) is now widely used against breast, ovarian and non-small-cell lung cancer. Anticancer agents generally have narrow therapeutic indices, often with myelosuppression (mainly neutropenia) as dose-limiting side effect. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Mechanism-Based Modeling of the Glucose-Insulin Regulation during Clinical Provocation Experiments

    Författare :Petra Jauslin-Stetina; Mats Karlsson; Nicolas Frey; Philippe Jacqmin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Pharmacokinetics Pharmacotherapy; Glucose homeostasis; Type 2 diabetes; IVGTT; OGTT; Meal test; Circadian variation; Mechanism-based; NONMEM; Farmakokinetik Farmakoterapi;

    Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes is a complex chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia associated with a relative deficiency of insulin secretion and a reduced response of target tissues to insulin. Considerable efforts have been put into the development of models describing the glucose-insulin system. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Pharmacodynamics of Enzyme Induction and its Consequences for Substrate Elimination

    Författare :Mats O. Magnusson; Rikard Sandström; Mats Karlsson; Ulf Bredberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Pharmacokinetics Pharmacotherapy; Pharmacokinetics; Pharmacodynamics; Enzyme induction; Time course; Turnover model; Mechanism-based; Modelling; NONMEM; Farmakokinetik Farmakoterapi;

    Sammanfattning : Enzyme induction is a process whereby a molecule enhances the expression of enzymes. If the affected enzymes are involved in the elimination of a drug, this may result in a drug interaction. Induction is therefore of major concern during drug development and in clinical practice.

  7. 15. Covariate Model Building in Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models

    Författare :Jakob Ribbing; E. Niclas Johnsson; Mats O. Karlsson; Janet Wade; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Pharmacokinetics Pharmacotherapy; Pharmacokinetics; Pharmacodynamics; Modeling; Covariate selection; Stepwise selection; Covariate analysis; Methodology; Model validation; Model evaluation; Type-2 diabetes; Beta-cell function; Meta analysis; Cross-validation; Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator; Pharmacometrics; ED optimization; Farmakokinetik Farmakoterapi;

    Sammanfattning : Population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) models can be fitted using nonlinear mixed effects modelling (NONMEM). This is an efficient way of learning about drugs and diseases from data collected in clinical trials. LÄS MER
