Structure-Activity Relationships and Drug Design

Structure-Activity Relationships and Drug Design

Drug design is a dynamic field that involves discovering and developing new medications based on specific biological targets. This process heavily relies on structure-activity relationships (SAR) and quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) to guide the design and optimization of efficient drugs.
SAR studies the intricate relationship between a drug's chemical structure and biological activity. It focuses on understanding how modifications to a drug's structure can influence...

Factors Affecting Dissolution: Drug Permeability, Stability and Stereochemistry

Factors Affecting Dissolution: Drug Permeability, Stability and Stereochemistry

Orally administered drugs primarily enter the systemic circulation via passive diffusion through the intestinal membranes. The drug's absorption is influenced by drug stability in the gastrointestinal GI tract, membrane permeability, the surface area available for absorption, luminal drug concentration, and residence time in the lumen. Drug permeability can be enhanced by adjusting the lipophilicity, polarity, or molecular size of the drug, promoting its passive transport across intestinal...

Area of Science:

Pharmaceutical Sciences
Drug Delivery Systems

Background:

Lipid-based novel drug delivery systems are crucial for improving the bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs.
Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS) form oil-in-water emulsions in the gastrointestinal tract, enhancing lipophilic drug absorption.
SEDDS offer advantages such as improved solubility, bypassing lymphatic transport, and increased bioavailability.

Conclusions:

SEDDS represent a promising platform for enhancing the bioavailability of lipophilic drugs.
Careful selection of excipients and optimization of formulation parameters are key to successful SEDDS development.
Solidification techniques are vital for transforming liquid SEDDS into stable, manageable dosage forms.
