Book Description
Drug Discovery is the process by which new molecules are discovered and now a days everybody is becoming aware of its level of importance especially in this era of COVID 19, which creates a possible anticipation of an increment in the demand for books related to screening methods of pharmacology. Pharmacological screening of drugs is a sequential testing of new chemical entities or extracts from biological material in isolated organs followed by test in whole experimental animals. Screening Methods in Pharmacology focuses on the methods for screening of moieties for pharmacological activities and discussions for organization of screening programs. This book envelops a descriptive approach detailed about CPCSEA, OECD and ICH guidelines that must be followed during screening of new drug moieties. It also provides a brief idea about bioassay and research methodology along with various experimental animal screening models for different diseases. This book shall serve as a reference guide for students of Pharmacy and life sciences graduates. Salient Features: 1. Beneficial for Pharmacy and life science graduates and research scholars. 2. Provides various experimental animal screening models for different diseases. 3. Gives special guidelines for animal use during experimental protocols. 4. Provides brief description about Bioassay

Virtual Screening
Author: Christoph Sotriffer
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 3527633340
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 774
Book Description
Drug discovery is all about finding small molecules that interact in a desired way with larger molecules, namely proteins and other macromolecules in the human body. If the three-dimensional structures of both the small and large molecule are known, their interaction can be tested by computer simulation with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Alternatively, if active ligands are already available, molecular similarity searches can be used to find new molecules. This virtual screening can even be applied to compounds that have yet to be synthesized, as opposed to "real" screening that requires cost- and labor-intensive laboratory testing with previously synthesized drug compounds. Unique in its focus on the end user, this is a real "how to" book that does not presuppose prior experience in virtual screening or a background in computational chemistry. It is both a desktop reference and practical guide to virtual screening applications in drug discovery, offering a comprehensive and up-to-date overview. Clearly divided into four major sections, the first provides a detailed description of the methods required for and applied in virtual screening, while the second discusses the most important challenges in order to improve the impact and success of this technique. The third and fourth, practical parts contain practical guidelines and several case studies covering the most important scenarios for new drug discovery, accompanied by general guidelines for the entire workflow of virtual screening studies. Throughout the text, medicinal chemists from academia, as well as from large and small pharmaceutical companies report on their experience and pass on priceless practical advice on how to make best use of these powerful methods.

High Throughput Screening Methods
Author: Joshua A. Bittker
Publisher: Royal Society of Chemistry
ISBN: 1782624716
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
High throughput screening remains a key part of early stage drug and tool compound discovery, and methods and technologies have seen many fundamental improvements and innovations over the past 20 years. This comprehensive book provides a historical survey of the field up to the current state-of-the-art. In addition to the specific methods, this book also considers cultural and organizational questions that represent opportunities for future success. Following thought-provoking foreword and introduction from Professor Stuart Schreiber and the editors, chapters from leading experts across academia and industry cover initial considerations for screening, methods appropriate for different goals in small molecule discovery, newer technologies that provide alternative approaches to traditional miniaturization procedures, and practical aspects such as cost and resourcing. Within the context of their historical development, authors explain common pitfalls and their solutions. This book will serve as both a practical reference and a thoughtful guide to the philosophy underlying technological change in such a fast-moving area for postgraduates and researchers in academia and industry, particularly in the areas of chemical biology, pharmacology, structural biology and assay development.

Anticancer Drug Development Guide
Author: Beverly A. Teicher
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1592597394
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 514
Book Description
This unique volume traces the critically important pathway by which a "molecule" becomes an "anticancer agent. " The recognition following World War I that the administration of toxic chemicals such as nitrogen mustards in a controlled manner could shrink malignant tumor masses for relatively substantial periods of time gave great impetus to the search for molecules that would be lethal to specific cancer cells. Weare still actively engaged in that search today. The question is how to discover these "anticancer" molecules. Anticancer Drug Development Guide: Preclinical Screening, Clinical Trials, and Approval, Second Edition describes the evolution to the present of preclinical screening methods. The National Cancer Institute's high-throughput, in vitro disease-specific screen with 60 or more human tumor cell lines is used to search for molecules with novel mechanisms of action or activity against specific phenotypes. The Human Tumor Colony-Forming Assay (HTCA) uses fresh tumor biopsies as sources of cells that more nearly resemble the human disease. There is no doubt that the greatest successes of traditional chemotherapy have been in the leukemias and lymphomas. Since the earliest widely used in vivo drug screening models were the murine L 1210 and P388 leukemias, the community came to assume that these murine tumor models were appropriate to the discovery of "antileukemia" agents, but that other tumor models would be needed to discover drugs active against solid tumors.
