Biography as the Missing Variable in Drug Development: A Case for Bio‐Biographical Mechanistic Profiling

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Most clinical trial failures reflect unmeasured biological heterogeneity. Biography — chronic stress, adversity, trauma, and social isolation—is a neglected source of that heterogeneity, operating through the same molecular pathways drugs engage.

Maternal Dipyrone Exposure and Risk of Major Congenital Malformations, Adverse Perinatal and Postnatal Outcomes: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Pain and fever are common in pregnancy. Dipyrone is widely used in Europe, Latin America, and parts of Asia, but is banned in other countries due to concerns about agranulocytosis. Evidence on its safety in pregnancy remains limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate whether maternal dipyrone use during the first‐ and third‐trimesters is ...

Molecular Aspects of Opioid Receptors and Opioid Receptor Painkillers

open access: yes, 2012
The unpleasant sensation of pain is experienced by all human beings at a given point in life. When pain gets severe and/or chronic it requires medical treatment. For over a thousand years, opioid agonists have been employed therapeutically to treat pain, with the first reports of such use involving the alkaloid morphine dated to the second century B.C.(

Ancestral Vertebrate Complexity of the Opioid System

open access: yes, 2015
The evolution of the opioid peptides and nociceptin/orphanin as well as their receptors has been difficult to resolve due to variable evolutionary rates.

Tramadol Co‐Administration with Oxycodone or Hydrocodone Increases Opioid Burden without Improving Postoperative Pain Control

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Tramadol is frequently co‐prescribed with oxycodone or hydrocodone after surgery under the assumption that its dual mechanism of action provides an opioid‐sparing benefit. However, evidence supporting this practice is limited and inconsistent. We conducted a secondary analysis of the multicenter IGNITE ADOPT‐PGx pragmatic trial of patients undergoing ...

Do Brain Extracellular Fluid Concentrations Predict PET‐Inferred Receptor Occupancy in Human CNS? A Mechanistic Model‐Based Analysis of Dopamine D2 Receptor Ligands

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
A mechanistic CNS PBPK model framework was applied to eight antipsychotic D2 receptor ligands, comparing brain extracellular fluid (brainECF) and brain cell membrane (brainM) as biophase for predicting human receptor occupancy compared against PET neuroimaging data. BrainM concentrations showed improved agreement with PET‐derived receptor occupancy for

Nociceptin/orphanin FQ and motor activity: behavioural, biochemical and electrophysiological studies in models of Parkinson’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ) is an opioid-like neuropeptide which activates the NOP receptor. N/OFQ exerts an inhibitory control on locomotion through inhibition of dopamine (DA) neurons located in the substantia nigra (SN), which degenerate in ...

Initiation of Gabapentin with Opioids and Risk of Respiratory Cardiovascular and Opioid‐Related Adverse Events Following Surgery for Breast Cancer

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Pain is a key determinant of quality‐of‐life following breast cancer surgery, the most common cancer operation in the United States. Gabapentinoids are frequently prescribed for pain management, yet their respiratory, cardiovascular, and opioid‐related adverse effects remain unclear.

Transcriptomic Profiling of SLC and ABC Transporters in the Human Term Placenta

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Solute carriers (SLC) and ATP‐binding cassette (ABC) transporters are essential for placental solute exchange and fetal protection, yet their transcriptomic profiles in the human placenta remain poorly characterized. Although fetal sex influences placental development and function, its impact on transporter expression is unclear.
