Accurate determination of plasma protein binding (PPB) is crucial in understanding the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs, particularly for highly bound compounds where traditional methods may fall short. In this study, we present a pioneering approach for the precise determination of PPB that takes advantage of the lipophilicity of highly bound compounds. Twenty four highly bound compounds (with a fraction unbound (f) from 10 to 10) were tested with the most commonly used method, i.

Background: It is unknown if glucocorticoid malabsorption contributes to the approximate 50% treatment failure rate in dogs with protein-losing enteropathy (PLE).
Objective: To compare pharmacokinetics (PK) of orally administered prednisolone in dogs with PLE vs healthy controls.
Animals: Fourteen dogs with well-characterized PLE and 7 control dogs.

Various high-efficiency hemodialysis techniques exist, including different online high- volume hemodiafiltration (HDF) modes and expanded hemodialysis (HDx) utilizing dialyzers with medium cut-off (MCO) membranes. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of uremic toxin removal among four modalities: (I) HDx, (II) pre-dilution HDF (PRE-HDF), (III) mixed-dilution HDF (MIX-HDF), and (IV) post-dilution HDF (POST-HDF), each applied for 1 week in a randomized order. This research was a single-center, prospective, open-label, exploratory crossover study.

Vision and magnetoreception in navigating songbirds are strongly connected as recent findings link a light dependent radical-pair mechanism in cryptochrome proteins to signalling pathways in cone photoreceptor cells. A previous yeast-two-hybrid screening approach identified six putative candidate proteins showing binding to cryptochrome type 4a. So far, only the interaction of the cone specific G-protein transducin α-subunit was investigated in more detail.

Among the numerous biofunctional properties of lactoferrin, its ability to bind iron ions can be considered a core function. The saturation level with ferric iron affects the stability and functionality of the protein. To reliably quantify the iron saturation, an assay based on the color reagent Ferrozine was developed and validated concerning the lower detection (0.
