Extracellular Vesicles as Drug Transporters

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-delimited particles. According to their size and synthesis pathway, EVs can be classified into exosomes, ectosomes (microvesicles), and apoptotic bodies. Extracellular vesicles are of great interest to the scientific community due to their role in cell-to-cell communication and their drug-carrying ...

Prediction of human drug clearance and anticipation of clinical drug-drug interaction potential from in vitro drug transport studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A major concern in drug development is the characterization of new molecular entities (NMEs) with respect to their safety and efficacy. Both factors are determined by the drug’s exposure within the body which itself is affected by drug clearance ...

A Mini-Review of the Role of Glutamate Transporter in Drug Addiction

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Goals: The development of new treatment for drug abuse requires identification of targetable molecular mechanisms. The pathology of glutamate neurotransmission system in the brain reward circuit is related to the relapse of multiple drugs.

Novel drug transporter substrates identification: An innovative approach based on metabolomic profiling, in silico ligand screening and biological validation

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2023
Solute carrier (SLC) transport proteins are fundamental for the translocation of endogenous compounds and drugs across membranes, thus playing a critical role in disease susceptibility and drug response.

Trypanosoma brucei aquaglyceroporin 2 is a high-affinity transporter for pentamidine and melaminophenyl arsenic drugs and the main genetic determinant of resistance to these drugs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Objectives: Trypanosoma brucei drug transporters include the TbAT1/P2 aminopurine transporter and the high-affinity pentamidine transporter (HAPT1), but the genetic identity of HAPT1 is unknown. We recently reported that loss of T.

Equine Drug Transporters: A Mini-Review and Veterinary Perspective

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2020
Xenobiotic transport proteins play an important role in determining drug disposition and pharmacokinetics. Our understanding of the role of these important proteins in humans and pre-clinical animal species has increased substantially over the past few ...

Expression of drug transporters in intestine and blood [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Proteins that are capable to transport molecules across membranes are fundamental for the accurate functioning of the body. Many diseases have their cause in a dysfunction of a particular transport protein.

Life cycle studies of the hexose transporter of Plasmodiumspecies and genetic validation of their essentiality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A Plasmodium falciparum hexose transporter (PfHT) has previously been shown to be a facilitative glucose and fructose transporter. Its expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes and the use of a glucose analogue inhibitor permitted chemical validation of PfHT ...
