Deciphering the Relative Contribution of CYP3A4 Versus P-Glycoprotein for the Shared Substrate Cyclosporine-Commentary on Lown et al. [PDF]
The oral bioavailability of cyclosporine, a substrate of both CYP3A4 and P‐glycoprotein, is subject to large inter‐individual variability, which requires frequent monitoring of plasma concentrations. In 1997, the study by Lown et al. showed that—in addition to hepatic CYP3A4—the expression of P‐gp in the intestine significantly influences the ...

No influence of dabigatran anticoagulation on hemorrhagic transformation in an experimental model of ischemic stroke [PDF]
Background: Dabigatran etexilate (DE) is a new oral direct thrombin inhibitor. Clinical trials point towards a favourable risk-to-benefit profile of DE compared to warfarin. In this study, we evaluated whether hemorrhagic transformation (HT) occurs after

Patient safety and estimation of renal function in patients prescribed new oral anticoagulants for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: In clinical trials of dabigatran and rivaroxaban for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (AF), drug eligibility and dosing were determined using the Cockcroft-Gault equation to estimate creatine clearance as a measure of renal function ...
