    Leerboek metabolisme en voeding

    Dit boek behandelt de belangrijkste aspecten van het menselijke metabolisme op een inzichtelijke manier. Het bespreekt de basisbegrippen, de complexe relatie tussen metabolisme en voeding en tussen metabolisme en ziektemechanismen. Het boek is bestemd voor studenten geneeskunde, mondzorg, farmacie en biomedische wetenschappen, hbo voeding en diëtetiek. De inhoud van het boek is verweven met een van de pijlers van de bachelorfase van de hiervoor vermelde opleidingen: de chemische basis van gezondheid en ziekte. Metabolisme gaat over chemische reacties die brandstoffen omzetten in nuttige energie en bouwstenen vanuit de voeding opbouwen tot bestanddelen van het lichaam. Het is belangrijk om te weten hoe het metabolisme normaal werkt en inspeelt op dagelijkse veranderingen in de voedingstoestand en fysische activiteit. Maar ook wat er speelt bij specifieke stofwisselingsziekten en de complexe bijdragen van een veranderd metabolisme aan frequente ziekten zoals diabetes en kanker.De derde herziene druk van Leerboek metabolisme en voeding bestaat uit twaalf hoofdstukken. De kernleerstof wordt ondersteund door 270 afbeeldingen, concrete leerdoelen en studeeraanwijzingen. In elk hoofdstuk staan ook verdiepende kaders over de grenzen van wetenschappelijk verantwoorde vakkennis, de rol van pioniers in vroeger onderzoek, het belang hiervan voor huidige medische toepassingen en beschouwingen uit de evolutieleer. Daarbij wordt steeds verwezen naar recente literatuur.Op de bijbehorende website zijn 300 toetsvragen, casussen en hot topics te vinden.

  3. Drug Design
    1. Gerhard , Klebe

    Drug Design

    This English-language textbook, based on the successful German edition 'Wirkstoffdesign', brings the subject of drug design back to the cutting edge of research. The reader learns about new methods in genetic engineering and the expanded range of structural biological methods. Especially in the last 10 years, many complex target structures such as G-protein coupled receptors or ion channels have been elucidated by using these methods. The reader learns how these long-sought complex structures with classical drugs look like and how the therapeutic effect is achieved. This textbook is aimed at students of pharmacy, chemistry and the life sciences, but also at career changers and medicinal chemists in research and development departments of the pharmaceutical industry. Conceptually, it is very different from classical textbooks on pharmaceutical chemistry. It focuses on the path to a new drug substance. The selection of case studies is based on didactic aspects and attempts to give a broad overview of methods and strategies without forgetting to look back at the beginnings of this field of work. Thus, the arc spans from the history of drug research, the mechanisms of action of drugs and the methods for lead structure search and optimisation to structure determination methods, modelling, molecular dynamics and QSAR methods to structure- and computer-aided design.

  5. Sustainable Pharmaceutical Product Development and Optimization Processes

    Sustainable Pharmaceutical Product Development and Optimization Processes

    This book offers unparalleled insight into the convergence of sustainability and pharmaceutical product development, with a specific focus on optimization processes. By addressing the urgent demand for more environmentally conscious and efficient strategies in the drug development industry, particularly in an era where the world faces the mounting challenges posed by climate change, the book provides a comprehensive guide for integrating sustainability principles throughout the pharmaceutical product lifecycle, directly contributing to the United Nationals Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) and SDG 13 (Climate Action). The chapters cover key topics, including the application of green chemistry, eco-design principles, sustainable sourcing of raw materials, waste reduction strategies, and the use of renewable energy in pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. Throughout the book, case studies are integrated, offering practical insights and concurrently highlighting the economic and environmental advantages of sustainable practices, thereby addressing skepticism regarding the feasibility and profitability of such initiatives. The book also discusses regulatory considerations, ethical implications, and the challenges and opportunities associated with moving toward more sustainable practices in pharmaceutical development. Importantly, this book seeks to solve the problem of the knowledge gap and lack of practical resources for professionals in the pharmaceutical industry who aspire to implement sustainable and optimized processes. This work consolidates a network of professionals and scholars keenly focused on future sustainability challenges, developing enhancement methodologies, and sharing successful strategies for implementing eco-friendly practices in pharmaceutical sectors worldwide, ultimately contributing to the global effort to achieve the SDGs by 2030. With a focus on pharmaceutical professionals, researchers, academicians, and students, the book serves as a valuable reference for those involved in drug development and process optimization. Policymakers and regulatory bodies might also find it insightful, as it addresses current landscapes, challenges, and future directions in sustainable pharmaceutical product development.

  11. Respiratory Delivery of Biologics, Nucleic Acids, and Vaccines

    Respiratory Delivery of Biologics, Nucleic Acids, and Vaccines

    Therapeutic macromolecules and biologics have gained increasing importance in the last decade. Pulmonary and intranasal delivery of these therapeutic modalities, which have poor oral bioavailability, could constitute an attractive, non-invasive alternative to parenteral delivery. They can be considered for either topical use for treating diseases affecting the airways or for systemic use for treating a variety of other diseases. Therefore, this book is a readable, thoughtful, and useful guide on the latest research developments and the best options that people involved with pulmonary and intranasal route of administration and biologically active agents can bring to their practices. Furthermore, it explores the underlying scientific rationale for the strategies applied to overcome drug delivery challenges and provides insights to inspire further research in this growing area.
