Classification model of amino acid sequences prone to aggregation of therapeutic proteins.

Background: Total body clearance of biological drugs is for the most part dependent on the receptor mechanisms (receptor mediated clearance) and the concentration of antibodies aimed at administered drug - anti-drug-antibodies (ADA). One of the significant factors that induces the increase of ADA level after drug administration could be the aggregates present in the finished product or formed in the organism. Numerous attempts have been made to identify the sequence fragments that could be responsible for forming the aggregates - aggregate prone regions (APR).

Pharmacokinetic Studies of Oxathio-Heterocycle Fused Chalcones.

Background And Objectives: Chalcone constitutes one of the most used molecular frameworks in medicinal chemistry and its derivatives exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities. Low absolute bioavailability, poor distribution, intensive metabolism and elimination of chalcones are the main problems in designing new drugs based on their structure. One of the fundamental steps in evaluation of drug candidates is a comparative analysis of pharmacokinetic parameters.
