Inhibitors of Viral Protein Synthesis01:30

Inhibitors of Viral Protein Synthesis

57
Protein synthesis is indispensable for viral replication, as viruses lack the cellular machinery required for this process and must hijack the host's translational apparatus. In response, host cells deploy a critical innate immune defense involving interferons, specialized cytokines that play a central role in inhibiting viral propagation.Upon viral detection, infected cells release interferons that bind to receptors on adjacent uninfected cells, activating the JAK-STAT signaling pathway and...

Hepatitis01:25

Hepatitis

80
Hepatitis is an inflammatory condition of the liver most commonly caused by hepatotropic viruses (A–E), though non-infectious causes such as alcohol and drugs also exist.Hepatitis AHepatitis A virus (HAV) is a non-enveloped RNA virus of the Picornaviridae family. It is primarily transmitted via the fecal-oral route, typically through ingestion of contaminated food or water. After ingestion, HAV enters the bloodstream through the oropharynx or intestinal epithelium and reaches the liver.

Subviral Agents01:29

Subviral Agents

924
Subviral agents are infectious entities that resemble viruses but lack one or more viral components, such as a capsid or essential replication machinery. These agents include viroids, prions, and satellites, each possessing distinct structural and functional characteristics that influence their mode of infection and replication.Viroids are the simplest subviral agents, consisting of circular, single-stranded RNA molecules without a protein coat. They exclusively infect plants, relying entirely...

Viral Hepatitis I: Introduction

21
Viral hepatitis is an inflammatory condition of the liver caused by infection with hepatotropic viruses, most commonly hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. Despite variations in structure and transmission, all viruses mentioned infect hepatocytes and provoke immune responses that can hinder liver function. Additionally, some non-hepatotropic viruses can also lead to hepatic inflammation.Hepatitis A VirusHepatitis A virus (HAV) is transmitted through the fecal–oral route, typically by ingestion...

Retroviruses02:33

Retroviruses

11.9K
Retroviruses and retrotransposons both insert copies of their genetic elements into the genome of the host cell. Thus, the viral genes are passed on when the host genome is replicated or translated. A typical retroviral DNA sequence contains 3-4 genes that encode the different proteins required for its structural assembly and function as a molecular parasite. This DNA is transcribed into a single mRNA, which is very similar in structure to conventional mRNAs, i.e., it is capped at the 5’...

Antifungal Agents01:15

Antifungal Agents

118
Amphotericin B is a broad-spectrum antifungal agent that exploits structural differences between fungal and mammalian cell membranes. Its amphipathic structure—featuring a hydrophobic polyene-lactone ring and a hydrophilic region containing mycosamine and carboxylic acid groups—enables selective binding to ergosterol, a sterol predominantly found in fungal plasma membranes. This selective interaction underlies the drug’s antifungal activity, although weak binding to...

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide comprehensive monographs for new and investigational drugs.
  • To offer drug utilization evaluations (DUE/MUE) for targeted agents.
  • To support pharmacy and nursing in-service education with concise summaries.

Main Methods:

  • Publication of 5-6 detailed monographs monthly.
  • Inclusion of a 1-page summary monograph for each agent.
  • Provision of a comprehensive drug utilization evaluation/medication use evaluation (DUE/MUE) monthly.

Main Results:

  • Monographs cover newly released drugs and those in phase 3 trials.
  • Specific May 2014 topics included droxidopa, elosulfase alfa, vorapaxar, ramucirumab, and pimavanserin.
  • The DUE/MUE for May 2014 focused on droxidopa.

Conclusions:
