Mapping opioid exposure through prescription data and postmortem analysis of opioid drugs in multiple tissues

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Although opioids are central to end of life (EoL) care, tissue‐level opioid exposure remains poorly understood. The objective of this study was to characterize the relationship between prescription‐derived morphine equivalent daily dose (MEDD) and measured morphine concentrations across multiple organs.

Active surveillance of drug safety in healthcare data: Sequential monitoring of bacterial and serious urinary tract infection risk in sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor users

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Active surveillance of adverse events using healthcare data is emerging as complementary to the monitoring of spontaneous reports and stand‐alone pharmacoepidemiologic studies. The risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) was listed as a special warning for sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) when marketed in Europe

High-affinity RNA Aptamers Against the HIV-1 Protease Inhibit Both In Vitro Protease Activity and Late Events of Viral Replication

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2015
HIV-1 aspartyl protease (PR) plays a key role in virion morphogenesis, underscoring the effectiveness of protease inhibitors (PI). Despite their utility, side effects and drug-resistance remains a problem.

A cell-free enzymatic activity assay for the evaluation of HIV-1 drug resistance to protease inhibitors

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Due to their high frequency of genomic mutations, human retroviruses often develop resistance to antiretroviral drugs. The emergence of drug-resistant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is a significant obstacle to the effective long-term ...

Unintended Consequences of Life‐Saving Pharmaceutical Innovations: How HAART Led to the Resurgence of Syphilis

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection that can lead to serious health complications, was almost eliminated in the United States by 2000. But since then, its incidence began to increase, recently reaching a 60‐year peak. We suggest that the introduction of the highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) drug regimen, which transformed HIV

CD8+ T lymphocyte responses target functionally important regions of Protease and Integrase in HIV-1 infected subjects

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2004
Background CD8+ T cell responses are known to be important to the control of HIV-1 infection. While responses to reverse transcriptase and most structural and accessory proteins have been extensively studied, CD8 T cell responses specifically directed to
