  • Computational modeling of signal transduction is currently attracting much attention as it can promote the understanding of complex signal transduction mechanisms. Although several mathematical models have been used to examine signaling pathways, little attention has been given to crosstalk mechanisms. In this study, an attempt was made to develop a computational model for the pathways involving growth-factor-mediated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt). In addition, the dynamics of the protein activities were analyzed based on a set of kinetic data. The simulation approach integrates the information on several levels and predicts systems behavior. The in-silico analysis conducted revealed that the Raf and Akt pathways act independently.

  • The LC/MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of sildenafil and its active metabolite N-demethylsildenafil in human plama was developed. Sildenafil. its active metabolite and the internal standard. DA-8159 were extracted form human plasma by liquid-liquid partitioning. A reverse-phase HPLC separation was performed on Luna phenylhexyl column with the mixture of acetonitrile-5 mM ammonium formate (55:45. v/v) as mobile phase. (omitted)

  • The in vitro effects of extracted fractions of C. militaris on the secretion of cytokines in murine macrophage cell line, RAW 264.7 were studied. F1 (crude cordycepin containing adenosine), F2 (ethanol precipitation), F3 (ethanol soluble supernatant) and F4 (fraction of through SK-1B) significantly stimulated the production of cytokine and nitric oxide (NO) on murine macrophage cell line RAW264.7. We examined how the ethanol extract of C. militaris regulates production of interleukine 1-beta(IL-1$\beta$), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-$\alpha$), and NO in vitro. (omitted)

  • A simple, specific and sensitive method for the determination of methyltestosterone (MT) in human serum has been developed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry with the purpose of conducting pharmacokinetic and bioequivalence studies of MT. This method involves the use of liquid-liquid extraction with diethyl ether and derivatization with MSTFA, using 1 ml of serum obtained from volunteers orally taken 50 mg MT. MT showed good resolutions in this conditions and no significant interfering peaks were observed. (omitted)

  • ABSTRACT-The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the bioequivalence of two enalapril maleate tablest, $Renitec^{TM}$(MSD Korea Ltd.) and $Enalace^{TM}$(Welfide Korea Ltd.), according to the guidelines of Korea Food and Drug Administration (DFDA). Twenty-four normal male volunteers, 22.33 ${\pm}$ 2.55 year in age and 66.54 ${\pm}$ 8.30 kg in body weight, were divided into two groups and a randomized 2${\times}$2 cross-over study was employed. After two tablets containing 10 mg of enalapril maleate per tablet were orally administered, blood was taken at predetermined time intervals and concentrations of enalapril in plasma were determined using LC-MS-MS.
