Drug-eluting stents are cardiovascular stents able to release a medical drug after implantation. The medical drug is, in general, aimed at healing the vascular tissues injured after implantation and to prevent restenosis. In spite of their apparent simplic ...
In order to decrease the peri-implant bone loss during the life-time of the implant, oral use of anti-osteoporosis drugs (like bisphosphonates) has been suggested. In this study, bone remodeling parameters identified from clinical trials of alendronate wer ...
We have investigated the pharmacokinetics (PK) of Lutetium Texaphyrin (Lu-Tex), a second-generation photosensitizer, in the Syrian hamster cheek pouch early cancer model. Ten male hamsters, five with chem. induced early squamous cell cancer of the left che ...
FMOC-L-Leucine (F-L-Leu) is a chemically distinct PPARgamma ligand. Two molecules of F-L-Leu bind to the ligand binding domain of a single PPARgamma molecule, making its mode of receptor interaction distinct from that of other nuclear receptor ligands. F-L ...
A review. With the advances in genomics, proteomics and functional genomics new therapeutic targets to be tackled by medicinal chem. are expected. This article reviews applications of first principle methods to address medicinal chem. issue related to drug ...
HIV-1-infected patients vary considerably by their response to antiretroviral treatment, drug concentrations in plasma, toxic events, and rate of immune recovery. This variability could have a genetic basis. We did a pharmacogenetics study to analyse the a ...
Telomerase, a ribonucleoprotein acting as a reverse transcriptase, has been identified as a target for cancer drug discovery. The synthetic, non-nucleosidic compound, BIBR1532, is a potent and selective telomerase inhibitor capable of inducing senescence i ...
A review with 130 refs. on optical techniques such as total internal reflection fluorescence, waveguides, and SPR for the detection of mol. interactions of membrane receptors. The outlook on how these emerging techniques may be applied to solve important q ...
Reversible and oriented immobilization of proteins in a functionally active form on solid surfaces is a prerequisite for the investigation of mol. interactions by surface-sensitive techniques. We demonstrate a method generally applicable for the attachment ...
The inter- and intramol. interactions between the different domains of the catalase-peroxidase KatG from Mycobacterium tuberculosis were analyzed using the two-hybrid assay. It was shown that the dimerization of the enzyme is due to a strong interaction of ...
