The effect of a protein-rich meal on the pharmacokinetics of moclobemide was studied after intravenous (75 mg) and oral (100 mg) administrations of this selective MAO-A inhibitor to eight healthy male volunteers. The meal chosen did not affect plasma concentration-time curves of the drug after oral administration apparently, because the influence of blood flow changes to the liver on hepatic first-pass metabolism (AUC increases) and on systemic clearance (AUC decreases) balance each other out.

Pharmacological differences and switching among anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies: A narrative review.
Headache

Section of Clinical Pharmacology and Oncology, Department of Health Sciences, University of Florence, Florence, Italy.
Antibodies targeting either the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), such as galcanezumab, fremanezumab, and eptinezumab, or the receptor (erenumab) have been approved for the prevention of episodic and chronic migraine. Although widely used and generally effective, a proportion of patients discontinue treatment due to lack of efficacy. In both randomized controlled trials and observational studies, all anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have consistently demonstrated comparable efficacy and tolerability, suggesting a pharmacological class effect.

This study aims to synthesize a new localized drug delivery system of bioglass, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), cellulose (CNC), and sodium alginate (SA) beads as a carrier for methotrexate (MTX) drugs for the treatment of osteosarcoma. Methotrexate /Bioglass-loaded Polyvinyl/Cellulose/Sodium alginate biocomposite beads were prepared via the dropwise method with different concentrations of (65%SiO-30%CaO- 5%PO) bioglass. Samples were named B0, S0, S1, S2, and S3, respectively.

The transdermal route is one of the effective routes for delivering drugs. It also overcomes many limitations associated with oral delivery. One of the limitations of this route is the drug's poor skin permeability-stratum corneum, the skin's outermost layer that also acts as a barrier for the drug to penetrate.

Metabolic requirements of dividing hepatocytes are prerequisite for liver regeneration after injury. In contrast to transcriptional dynamics during liver repair, its metabolic dependencies remain poorly defined. Here, we screened metabolic genes differentially regulated during liver regeneration, and report that SLC13A2, a transporter for TCA cycle intermediates, is decreased in rapid response to partial hepatectomy in mice and recovered along restoration of liver mass and function.
