Development Of Quantitative Bioanalytical Methods For The Pharmacological Studies Of Anti-Cancer Drugs, Ye Feng
ETD Archive
In the anticancer drug discovery and therapy development, it is essential to understand the pharmacological properties of the drugs. Today, pharmaceutical analysis is employed throughout the whole drug discovery and development process. Pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships are playing an increasingly important role in decisions on the rational development and use of new drugs and they can provide a detailed knowledge of the mechanism of the drug and a better understanding of the molecular targets on which they act. Due to the significance of pharmacological analysis, sensitive analytical methods are critically needed for pharmacological studies. Therefore, our long-term goal is to provide guidelines …

Chronic Kidney Disease: Vitamin D Treatment Regimens And Novel Assay Development For Kidney And Cardiovascular Function Biomarkers, Joe M. El-Khoury
Chronic Kidney Disease: Vitamin D Treatment Regimens And Novel Assay Development For Kidney And Cardiovascular Function Biomarkers, Joe M. El-Khoury

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is highly prevalent in the US population and has high incidence of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. A known complication of CKD is secondary hyperparathyroidism that is caused by bone and mineral imbalances, including vitamin D deficiency. Supplementation of CKD patients with vitamin D is based on guidelines issued by the Kidney Disease Quality Outcomes Initiative (K/DOQI), which recommend administration of vitamin D2 in variable doses depending on the severity of vitamin D deficiency. Retrospective and pilot studies have shown that vitamin D2 was not as effective as vitamin D3 in treating vitamin D deficiency. In Chapter …
Development Of Bioanalytical Methods For Clinical Applications And Drug Screening, Xiaohan Cai
Development Of Bioanalytical Methods For Clinical Applications And Drug Screening, Xiaohan Cai
ETD Archive
In the past decade, bioanalytical method development has become an integral part of clinical diagnosis, biomarker discovery, and drug discovery and development. The new and emerged bioanalytical technologies allow the quantitative and qualitative analysis of small molecules and biomolecules with high sensitivity and specificity. Specifically, the bioanalytical methods based on LC-MS and methylation-specific PCR are well suited for detecting low-abundance metabolites, proteins, and DNA in biofluids and tissues for biomarker investigation. They offer great clinical promises for early diseases diagnosis and therapeutic interventions. Besides, the LC-MS/MS quantitative method is essential for the estimation of pharmacokinetic and toxicological properties in drug …

In the development of anti-cancer drugs, it is essential to study the pharmacological profiles of the drugs. Among the analytical tools utilized in the pharmacological studies, LC-MS/MS has gained increased popularity due to its unequivocal sensitivity and specificity, as well as the ability of handling a wide variety of compounds with relatively simple sample preparation procedures. In this work, a brief review on the method rational, instrumentations, analytical method validation, and work flow of the method development was included. The processes of LC-MS/MS method development for the pharmacological studies of three anti-cancer drugs (i.e., methoxyamine, fludarabine, and 6-benzylthioinosine) were illustrated. …

There are a wide array of sciences at our disposal to further our understanding of the roles of toxins in the environment and their effects on living organisms. Of these disciplines, the field of mass spectrometry offers a powerful analytical means to identify compounds in varying and complex sample media. The presence of altered expressions of biomolecules upon exposure to toxins, the effects that these toxins may have on biomolecule structure and the identity of toxins in the sample all can be determined by mass spectrometry. In this study mass spectrometric analysis has been applied to environmental toxicological problems. First, …
