Efficient screening of PPAR active compounds
Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPARs) are ligand-activated transcription factors of the Nuclear Receptor superfamily. PPAR active compounds are of significant interest in multiple pharmaceutical
What is a clinical trial?
Clinical trials are the bedrock of medical research. They are conducted in distinct phases that we will detail in this article. But before clinical trials can even start, it is necessary to conduct preclinical
What is the role of ADME in drug discovery?
ADME is an abbreviation in pharmacokinetics (a branch of pharmacology that studies how substances act and remain in organisms) for “Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion”.
Why are certain drugs called enzyme inhibitors?
Our bodies’ normal functioning relies on chemical reactions (for instance, the conversion of food into energy or the replenishment of cells in tissue, like in muscles or organs). These biochemical reactions
