Influence of additives on swelling and mucoadhesion properties of glyceryl monooleate liquid crystals

Abstract Liquid crystalline systems of glyceryl monooleate/water are used as drug delivery systems due to their complex structure that controls drug diffusion. Mucoadhesive properties of glyceryl monooleate suggest it can be used for buccal delivery. Using additives is a strategy to modify physical and c...

Pharmacogenomics of mycophenolic acid in kidney transplantation: Contribution of immune response-related genes

Abstract Mycophenolic acid (MPA) inhibits IMPDH, involved in the guanosine nucleotides synthesis, and prevents DNA replication in immune cells. The repression of cell and humoral immunity by MPA induces allograft tolerance preventing acute rejection in solid organ transplantation. MPA is an effective and...
