Predicting the Intravenous Pharmacokinetics of Covalent Drugs in Animals and Humans

Covalent Modifiers

Human volume of distribution (Vd) was well predicted using allometric scaling of animal pharmacokinetic data; the most reliable results were achieved using simple allometric scaling of unbound Vd values. These results provide a quantitative framework to guide appropriate method selection for human PK prediction with covalent drugs.

Evaluation of Systemic and Brain Pharmacokinetic Parameters for Repurposing Metformin Using Intravenous Bolus Administration [Drug Discovery and Translational Medicine]

ASPET

Yet, the absence of established systemic and brain pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters at relevant pre-clinical doses presents a significant knowledge gap. Our findings emphasize the importance of metformin dose selection based on pharmacokinetic parameters for pre-clinical pharmacological studies.

Pharmacokinetic study of the interaction between luteolin and magnoflorine in rats

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

The pharmacokinetic study was performed on male Sprague–Dawley rats randomly grouped as the single administration of luteolin and the co-administration of luteolin and magnoflorine with six rats of each. Luteolin was co-administrated with magnoflorine to evaluate their potential interaction.
