Carbamoyl mycophenolic acid ethylester, an oral antitumor agent.

Pharmacokinetic studies and human absorbed dose estimation of 68Ga-(4 {[(bis (phosphonomethyl)) carbamoyl] methyl}-7,10-bis(carboxymethy l) -1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododec-1-yl) acetic acid

Background: In this study, human absorbed dose of a newly introduced bone imaging agent, 68Ga-(4-{[(bis(phosphonomethyl))carbamoyl]methyl}-7,10-bis(carboxymethyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododec-1-yl) acetic acid (68Ga-BPAMD), was estimated based on the rats data. Materials and Methods: 68Ga was obtained from the 68Ge/68Ga generator and it's radionuclidic and radiochemical purities were investigate...

Molecular identification of MPaB and MPaE genes from MPA gene cluster in new strain of Penicillium brevicompactum

Mycophenolic acid (MPA) is a fungal metabolite possessing antiviral, antifungal, antibacterial, antitumor and anti-psoriasis activities. It is being used as an immunosuppressive agent in kidney, heart and liver transplantation patients. In the presence of MPA, the proliferation of the B and T lymphocytes is inhibited. The MPaB and MPaE genes reside in a 25 kb gene cluster in t...

Pharmacokinetic Assessment of Drug‐Drug Interactions of Isavuconazole With the Immunosuppressants Cyclosporine, Mycophenolic Acid, Prednisolone, Sirolimus, and Tacrolimus in Healthy Adults

This report summarizes phase 1 studies that evaluated pharmacokinetic interactions between the novel triazole antifungal agent isavuconazole and the immunosuppressants cyclosporine, mycophenolic acid, prednisolone, sirolimus, and tacrolimus in healthy adults. Healthy subjects received single oral doses of cyclosporine (300 mg; n = 24), mycophenolate mofetil (1000 mg; n = 24), prednisone (20 mg;...

Nitrosation of aspartic acid, aspartame, and glycine ethylester. Alkylation of 4-(p-nitrobenzyl)pyridine (NBP) in vitro and binding to DNA in the rat.

In a colorimetric assay using 4-(p-nitrobenzyl)pyridine (NBP) as a nucleophilic scavenger of alkylating agents, the nitrosation and alkylation reactions were investigated for a number of amino acids and derivatives. The alkylating activity increased with the square of the nitrite concentration. The nitrosation rate constants for aspartic acid, aspartame, and glycine ethylester (= precursors C) ...
