Abstract:
Many publications in databases deal with the interactions of new drugs with albumin. However, it is not only albumin that is responsible for binding pharmaceutical molecules to proteins in the human body. There are many more proteins in plasma that are important for the study of the ADME pathway. Therefore, in this study, we have shown the results of the interactions between the plasma proteins albumin, orosomucoid, and gamma globulins and non-toxic anti-inflammatory phthalimide analogs, which due to the promising obtained results, may be potential candidates in the group of analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs. Using spectroscopic methods and molecular modeling, we showed that all four tested compounds form complexes with the analyzed proteins. The formation of a complex with proteins raises the pharmacological efficacy of the drug. Therefore, the obtained results could be a step in the study of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of new potential pharmaceuticals.

Protein-Drug Binding: Determination Methods
Indirect methods involve isolating the bound drug from its free form in biological samples such as blood, serum, or plasma. These techniques aim to measure the percentage of drugs bound to proteins. Equilibrium dialysis is a commonly used method where the free drug concentration at equilibrium is measured by separating the bound...
