Investigating the multifaceted characteristics of BaFeWO double perovskite: Insights from density functional theory.

This study undertook a comprehensive examination of the double perovskite complex BaFeWO, investigating its structural, electrical, magnetic, thermal and elastic characteristics. The study used density functional theory (DFT), specifically the full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. It also used different approximations, including the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and the modified Trans-Blaha (TB-mBJ) approach, to improve the accuracy of the band gap estimation more accurate.

Quantitative Proteomics for Translational Pharmacology and Precision Medicine: State of The Art and Future Outlook.

Over the past 20 years, quantitative proteomics has contributed a wealth of protein expression data, which are currently used for a variety of systems pharmacology applications, as a complement or a surrogate for activity of the corresponding proteins. A symposium at the 25th North American International Society for the Study of Xenobiotics meeting, in Boston, in September 2023, was held to explore current and emerging applications of quantitative proteomics in translational pharmacology and strategies for improved integration into model-informed drug development based on practical experience of each of the presenters. A summary of the talks and discussions is presented in this perspective alongside future outlook that was outlined for future meetings.

Dealing With Variable Drug Exposure Due to Variable Hepatic Metabolism: A Proof-of-Concept Application of Liquid Biopsy in Renal Impairment.

Precision dosing strategies require accounting for between-patient variability in pharmacokinetics (PK), affecting drug exposure, and in pharmacodynamics (PD), affecting response achieved at the same drug concentration at the site of action. Although liquid biopsy for assessing different levels of molecular drug targets has yet to be established, individual characterization of drug elimination pathways using liquid biopsy has recently been demonstrated. The feasibility of applying this approach in conjunction with modeling tools to guide individual dosing remains unexplored.
