Chez l’homme, de nombreux médicaments ne sont toxiques que chez un petit nombre de patients traités. Divers facteurs de susceptibilité, génétiques et autres (doses quotidiennes, stress inflammatoire, réaction immune, maladie hépatique,…), favoriseraient la survenue de ces toxicités de type idiosyncratique, non prévisibles par des études chez l’animal. Leur prédiction et la caractérisation des mécanismes impliqués représentent donc un challenge majeur.

Abstract:
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids are proposed to be metabolized in the liver to reactive pyrrole species, or dehydroalkaloids. These reactive pyrroles are hypothesized to be responsible for pyrrolizidine alkaloid toxicity. This dissertation research has established that dehydroalkaloids are, in fact, metabolites of pyrrolizidine alkaloids. It was first determined that dehydromonocrotaline is produced during hepatic microsomal metabolism of monocrotaline and that it has the ability to bind in vitro with a synthetic thiol-containing resin, Thiopropyl Sepharose 6B. Similarly, synthetic dehydromonocrotalin

Abstract:
It has been previously reported that acute hypervitaminosis A in rats dramatically increases the hepatotoxicity of a number of chemicals. This potentiation appears to be mediated by the enhanced release of reactive oxygen species from retinol-primed Kupffer cells. However, in the lung it has been shown that retinol can protect against many of the inflammatory effects caused by bleomycin. Whether or not retinol pretreatment can modulate chemical-induced injury of compounds that cause both liver and lung toxicity is unknown.

Abstract:
Dissertação de Mestrado em Biotecnologia Farmacêutica apresentada à Faculdade de Farmácia<br>Nanotechnology is experiencing a rising interest from the pharmaceutical field due to the ability of nanoparticles (NPs) to increase the safety and efficiency of encapsulated drugs. Curcumin is a polyphenol with great therapeutic properties, especially regarding its anti-cancer abilities. However, its pharmacokinetics are poor, having poor bioavailability and being rapidly metabolized and excreted in vivo. The NPs chosen to overcome the curcumin’s poor pharmacokinetics were glucan NPs, as glucan has gr
