Drugs Affecting GI Tract Motility: Serotonin Receptor Agonists

212
Serotonin, a crucial neurotransmitter synthesized by enterochromaffin cells, plays a cardinal role in regulating gastrointestinal (GI) motility. With over 90% of the body's total serotonin in the GI tract, its influence on digestive processes is profound. Serotonin is swiftly released upon various stimuli, such as food boluses or certain drugs, triggering intrinsic sensory neurons in the myenteric plexus and extrinsic vagal and spinal sensory neurons. This leads to the activation of the...

Pharmacovigilance01:19

Pharmacovigilance

773
Post-marketing surveillance is a critical component of pharmaceutical regulation, often uncovering unanticipated adverse drug reactions (ADRs) once a drug is widely used over an extended period.
This process, termed pharmacovigilance, aims to detect, evaluate, and minimize harmful effects related to medication use. The data collection for pharmacovigilance depends on spontaneous reporting systems, where healthcare professionals or patients voluntarily report suspected ADRs.
In some cases, there...

Drugs for Treatment of Diarrhea-Predominant IBS

147
Diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) is a subtype of IBS characterized primarily by frequent, loose, or watery stools, abdominal pain, and abdominal discomfort. Therapeutic approaches to managing IBS-D include dietary changes, stress management techniques, and pharmaceutical interventions.
Two specific drugs used in the treatment are alosetron (Lotronex) and eluxadoline (Viberzi). Alosetron, a 5-HT3 antagonist, works by slowing the movement of stools in the gut, reducing bowel...

Structure-Activity Relationships and Drug Design01:28

Structure-Activity Relationships and Drug Design

595
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...

Summary

Seladelpar, a selective PPARδ agonist, received accelerated US approval for primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). This oral treatment offers a new option for patients with inadequate response or intolerance to ursodeoxycholic acid.

Area of Science:

  • Pharmacology
  • Hepatology
  • Drug Development

Background:

  • Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease.
  • Existing treatments for PBC include ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA).
  • Some patients exhibit inadequate response or intolerance to UDCA.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize the development milestones of seladelpar.
  • To highlight the regulatory approval of seladelpar for PBC treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Review of seladelpar's development pathway.
  • Analysis of regulatory submission data for PBC.

Main Results:

  • Seladelpar, a selective peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)δ agonist, demonstrated efficacy.
