Synthesis and evaluation of indomethacin prodrugs with a diester structure that are metabolically activated by human carboxylesterases
In this study, by changing the structure of the prodrug to a diester structure, it was found that CES2 activity was equivalent to CES1 activity.It should be noted that the use of diester prodrugs in prodrug discovery, where organ-specific hydrolysis reactions are expected, may not yield the expected results.PMID:38142303 | DOI:10.1080/00498254.2023.2298270 (Source: Xenobiotica)

Prediction of pharmacokinetics of an anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor in rat and monkey: application of physiologically based pharmacokinetic model as an alternative tool to minimise animal studies
Xenobiotica. 2023 Dec 18:1-13. doi: 10.1080/00498254.2023.2292725. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe pharmacokinetic (PK) and toxicokinetic profile of a drug from its preclinical evaluation helps the researcher determine whether the drug should be tested in humans based on its safety and toxicity.Preclinical studies require time and resources and are prone to error. Moreover, according to the United States Food and Drug Administration Modernisation Act 2, animal testing is no longer mandatory for new drug development, and an animal-free alternative, such as cell-based assay and computer models, can be used.Different physio...

CYP-catalysed Cycling of Clozapine and Clozapine- < em > N < /em > -oxide Promotes the Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species < em > in vitro < /em >
This study aimed to investigate the contribution of selected CYP isoforms to cycling between clozapine and its major circulating metabolites, N-desmethylclozapine and clozapine-N-oxide, with the potential for reactive species production. CYP supersomeā„¢-based in vitro techniques were utilised to quantify specific enzyme activity associated with clozapine, clozapine-N-oxide and N-desmethylclozapine metabolism. The formation of reactive species within each incubation were quantified, and known intermediates detected. CYP3A4 predominately catalysed clozapine-N-oxide formation from clozapine and was associated with concentrat...

It is not in the area expected, that of superior modelling of ADME data to increase its predictive power. It is influencing traditional exhaustive and careful literature research by providing almost perfect summaries of existing information.
