Background And Objective: The search for potential gene loci that affect the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of ticagrelor is a matter of broad clinical interest. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ticagrelor in healthy Chinese subjects.
Methods: This is a multi-center study in China, including three hospitals from Beijing, Nanchang, and Changsha. Healthy Chinese subjects aged 18-45 years with unknown genotypes were included. All subjects received a single oral dose of 90 mg of ticagrelor. Platelet aggregation and the area under the concentration-time curve for ticagrelor and its major active metabolite in plasma samples were assessed. Genome-wide association studies and candidate gene association analysis related to ticagrelor were performed.
Results: One hundred and seventy-five native Chinese subjects were enrolled and completed the study. According to the p value, the threshold of ticagrelor population was 6.57 × 10 (0.05/76106), one single-nucleotide polymorphism chr6:17616513 of gene NUP153 (p = 2.03 × 10) related to the area under the concentration-time curve for plasma concentration at time zero versus the last measurable timepoint, and one single nucleotide polymorphism rs17204533 of gene SVEP1 (p = 3.96 × 10) related to P2Y12 reaction unit of ticagrelor was identified. In addition, L1TD1, CETP, CLEC2A, CHSY1, PDZRN3, CTU2, PIEZO1, APOBEC1, SEMA6A, KAZN, and FASN polymorphisms might influence the pharmacokinetics of ticagrelor, while PARP10, TRIB1, CYP2C19, and UGT2B7 might affected its pharmacodynamics.
Conclusions: Genetic variation affects the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ticagrelor in healthy individuals. The detection of NUP153, SVEP1 gene variation will be helpful for pharmacodynamic prediction and evaluation, and the regulation of these genes may be the target of new drug development. Further studies are required to confirm the results and explore whether these single-nucleotide polymorphisms are associated only with platelet activity or also with cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality.

The impact of heteroresistance on tuberculosis (TB) treatment outcomes is unclear, as is the role of different rifampin and isoniazid exposures on developing resistance mutations. Hollow fiber system model of TB (HFS-TB) units were inoculated with drug-susceptible () and treated with isoniazid and rifampin exposure identified in a clinical trial as leading to treatment failure and acquired drug resistance. Systems were sampled for drug concentration measurements, estimation of total and drug-resistant , and small molecule overlapping reads (SMOR) analysis for the detection of heteroresistance.

The concept of "gender" refers to the socially constructed characteristics that define feminine or masculine behavior, which are constantly changing and can influence access to healthcare and patterns of help-seeking. These factors significantly impact forensic toxicology, a key area within the medicolegal landscape, forcing the adoption of a gender-sensitive approach to better understand the differing impacts of substances on men and women. Research indicates significant disparities in drug use between genders; men are more likely to abuse alcohol and illicit drugs, while women tend to use prescription medications.

Dordaviprone (ONC201) is a novel, small molecule imipridone with antitumor effects in glioma patients. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics and safety of dordaviprone following single escalating doses (Part A), as a capsule content mixed with applesauce or Gatorade (sports drink) [Part B1]), and with or without food [Part B2]. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events pooled across study parts (Parts A, B1, and B2) were headache, dizziness, and headache, respectively; all were mild.

Background: Clopidogrel, an antiplatelet drug commonly used in cardiovascular disease, is metabolized by the liver mainly through CYP2C19. Concomitant use of Proton pump inhibitors along with clopidogrel may affect the potency of clopidogrel by CYP2C19 inhibition. However, a novel PPI, ilaprazole is known to differ in its pharmacokinetic features, given the potential differences between ilaprazole's interactions and their metabolism with clopidogrel.

Purpose: Phytosome technology, an advanced lipid-based delivery system, offers a promising solution for enhancing the bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy of secondary metabolites, particularly in cancer treatment. These metabolites, such as flavonoids, terpenoids, and alkaloids, possess significant anticancer potential but are often limited by poor solubility and low absorption. This review aims to investigate how phytosome encapsulation improves the pharmacokinetic profiles and anticancer effectiveness of these bioactive compounds.
