Physiological Pharmacokinetic Models: Incorporating Hepatic Transporter-Mediated Clearance

299
Drug transporters are critical in drug absorption, distribution, and excretion processes. They should be included in physiological-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models, which help predict human drug disposition. However, predicting this is challenging during drug development, especially when liver transport is involved. However, with a realistic representation of body transport processes, an accurate model may be possible.

Adaptability of Cytoskeletal Filaments01:12

Adaptability of Cytoskeletal Filaments

6.0K
The cytoskeleton is a complex dynamic structure performing varied functions based on cellular requirements. The adaptability of the individual filaments in the cytoskeleton determines their ability to perform various functions within the cell. It can undergo rapid reorganization during processes like cell division or remain stable for several hours as in the interphase. The adaptability of these filaments depends on stringent regulatory mechanisms. The microfilament and microtubules of the...

Natural Selection and Adaptation01:15

Natural Selection and Adaptation

1.4K
Natural selection, a fundamental concept in evolutionary biology, is the mechanism by which evolution is driven, favoring organisms that are best adapted to their environments. This process enhances their chances of survival and reproduction. Adaptation, a key outcome of this process, involves genetic modifications that optimize an organism's functionality under specific environmental challenges, such as extreme cold or thinner air at high altitudes.
Beyond physical adaptations,...

Introduction to Innate and Adaptive Immunity

9.6K
The human immune system is a complex defense mechanism that protects the body from harmful pathogens and foreign substances. It comprises two crucial components: innate and adaptive immunity.
Innate immunity is the body's natural, nonspecific defense system that acts quickly to protect against pathogens. It incorporates physical barriers like skin and mucous membranes and cellular elements such as phagocytes and natural killer cells. This part of our immune system provides an immediate,...

Adaptive Mechanisms in Cancer Cells

7.1K
Cancer cells accumulate genetic changes at an abnormally rapid rate due to the defects in the DNA repair mechanisms. From an evolutionary perspective, such genetic instability is advantageous for cancer development. Mutant cell lines accumulate a series of beneficial mutations that contribute to their progression into cancer.
Some of the advantages that cancer cells have on normal cells include - enhanced ability to divide without terminally differentiating, induce new blood vessel formation,...

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss01:57

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

28.2K
Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.

Area of Science:

  • Statistics
  • Biostatistics
  • Health Informatics

Background:

  • Incorporating historical data into current analyses presents statistical challenges, especially when models differ in covariates and parameter interpretation.
  • Existing methods may require additional regularization due to varying informativeness of historical data for current parameters.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop novel Bayesian approaches for integrating information from a historical model into a current analysis.
  • To address challenges arising from nested models and the unequal informativeness of historical data.
  • To improve mortality risk prediction models, specifically for pediatric patients undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).

Main Methods:

  • Proposed novel extensions of the power prior method.
  • Developed adaptive priors that combine historical information with variance-reducing priors (shrinking parameters toward zero).
  • Applied methods to build and expand mortality risk prediction models using registry and auxiliary cohort data.

Main Results:

  • The adaptive priors effectively utilized information from the original model.
  • Successfully identified novel mortality risk factors in the expanded model.
  • A simulation study demonstrated potential efficiency gains in parameter estimation across various scenarios.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed adaptive Bayesian priors offer a robust framework for leveraging historical data in current analyses.
  • These methods enhance the identification of risk factors and improve the efficiency of statistical modeling.
  • The approach is particularly valuable for complex health prediction tasks like pediatric ECMO mortality risk.
