Book Concepts and Models for Drug Permeability Studies

Download or read book Concepts and Models for Drug Permeability Studies written by Bruno Sarmento and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-02-23 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concepts and Models for Drug Permeability Studies: Cell and Tissue Based in Vitro Culture Models, Second Edition, summarizes the most important developments in in vitro models for predicting the permeability of drugs. This book is structured around three different approaches, summarizing the most recent achievements regarding models comprising (i) immortalized cells with an intrinsic ability to grow as monolayers when seeded in permeable supports, (ii) primary cells isolated from living organisms and directly cultured as barrier monolayers, and (iii) tissue-based models constructed with cell lines and extracellular matrix that resembles the tridimensional structure of mucosae and other biological membranes, or animal/patient-derived tissues. Each model is covered in detail, including the protocol of generation and application for specific drugs/drug delivery systems. The equivalence between in vitro cell and tissue models and in vivo conditions is discussed, highlighting how each model may provisionally resemble different drug absorption route. Chapters included in the first edition were updated with relevant data published in recent years, while four new chapters were included to reflect new emerging directions and trends in drug permeability models.

Book The Impact of Food Bioactives on Health

Download or read book The Impact of Food Bioactives on Health written by Kitty Verhoeckx and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-04-29 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Infogest” (Improving Health Properties of Food by Sharing our Knowledge on the Digestive Process) is an EU COST action/network in the domain of Food and Agriculture that will last for 4 years from April 4, 2011. Infogest aims at building an open international network of institutes undertaking multidisciplinary basic research on food digestion gathering scientists from different origins (food scientists, gut physiologists, nutritionists...). The network gathers 70 partners from academia, corresponding to a total of 29 countries. The three main scientific goals are: Identify the beneficial food components released in the gut during digestion; Support the effect of beneficial food components on human health; Promote harmonization of currently used digestion models Infogest meetings highlighted the need for a publication that would provide researchers with an insight into the advantages and disadvantages associated with the use of respective in vitro and ex vivo assays to evaluate the effects of foods and food bioactives on health. Such assays are particularly important in situations where a large number of foods/bioactives need to be screened rapidly and in a cost effective manner in order to ultimately identify lead foods/bioactives that can be the subject of in vivo assays. The book is an asset to researchers wishing to study the health benefits of their foods and food bioactives of interest and highlights which in vitro/ex vivo assays are of greatest relevance to their goals, what sort of outputs/data can be generated and, as noted above, highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the various assays. It is also an important resource for undergraduate students in the ‘food and health’ arena.

Book Innovative 3D models for Understanding Mechanisms underlying Lung Diseases  Powerful Tools for Translational Research

Download or read book Innovative 3D models for Understanding Mechanisms underlying Lung Diseases Powerful Tools for Translational Research written by Janette K. Burgess and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-02-05 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mechanisms underlying acute and chronic lung diseases are complex, reflecting the interplay between multiple cell types, their microenvironment and exogenous challenges. While traditional in vitro cell culture approaches have been instrumental in advancing our knowledge of cellular signalling and function, they typically lack the cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions that define the niche in which lung cell and tissue functions emerge. Implementing in vivo and ex vivo three-dimensional (3D) models more realistically mimicking the in vivo cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) crosstalk should facilitate a considerable leap towards better understanding lung diseases and thus in investigating new pharmacological tools. We are experiencing a revolution in our understanding of the cell types that deposit and remodel ECM in the lung, the dynamic spatial composition of the ECM and cell-cell interactions during disease, and the influence of ECM and cell-derived cues on lung cell biology. In concert, the ex vivo and in vitro models that are being used to examine the role of the 3D microenvironment of the cell in the lung are rapidly developing. The European Respiratory Society has partnered with Frontiers in Pharmacology to launch this research topic in conjunction with the ERS Research Seminar “Innovative 3D models for understanding mechanisms underlying lung diseases: powerful tools for translational research”.
