  1. 1. Intracellular unbound drug concentrations : Methodology and application for understanding cellular drug exposure

    Författare :André Mateus; Per Artursson; Pär Matsson; José A. G. Morais; Jeff Krise; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intracellular unbound drug concentrations; free drug; drug binding; drug transport; drug accumulation; cellular drug response; drug target engagement; Pharmaceutical Science; Farmaceutisk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Most known drug targets and metabolizing enzymes are located inside cells. Interactions with these proteins are determined by intracellular unbound drug concentrations. Assessing intracellular drug exposure is technically challenging, but essential for predicting pharmacokinetic, pharmacological, and toxicological profiles of new drugs. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Molecular Approaches to Explore Drug-Target Interactions

    Författare :Abdullah Al-Amin; Ulf Landegren; Christopher Schofield; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Drug discovery; target engagement; target engagement-mediated amplification; cellular thermal shift assay; proximity extension assay; in situ PLA; high-content imaging; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Improved means to assess the clinical potential of drug candidates can critically influence development of new therapeutic entities, a central aim in medical life science. Drug discovery and development relies on construction and selection of small organic compounds or biological agents that bind targets of interest. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA) for elucidating drug mechanism of action and resistance in cancer

    Författare :Smaranda Bacanu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A complete understanding over drug mechanism of action (MoA) is important when attempting to predict treatment outcome or the presence of resistance in patients. Despite decades of scientific efforts, the MoAs of even some of the oldest and most utilized drugs in cancer therapy today remain only partially understood, while resistance continues to be a frequent and often unpredictable occurrence.

  5. 4. Proximity Extension Assay : a universal tool for proteomics in precision medicine

    Författare :Phathutshedzo M. Muthelo; Ulf Landegren; Jochen Schwenk; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Proximity Extension Assay; Precision medicine; Assay development; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Precision medicine aims to utilise biomarkers to ensure the right treatment is given to the right patient at the right time. In pursuit of this goal, sensitive protein detection is essential to improve opportunities for discovery, verification, validation and development of valuable protein biomarkers. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Deciphering Binding Patterns of Therapeutic Antibodies with Immune Cells : From Method Development to Application

    Författare :Sina Bondza; Jos Buijs; Marika Nestor; Mark Cragg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; affinity; binding kinetics; CD20; cell-based assay; immunology; receptor-ligand interaction; therapeutic antibody; Immunologi; Immunology; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Reversible binding, for example between signaling molecules and receptors on the cell surface, is one of the main means to communicate information in cellular systems. Knowledge about how molecules interact is crucial for both understanding biological function and for therapeutic intervention. LÄS MER
