Abstract
Metabolomics is based on the simultaneous analysis of multiple low-molecular-weight metabolites from a given sample. The goals of metabolomics are to catalog and quantify the myriad small molecules found in biological fluids under different conditions. The metabolomics represents the collection of all metabolites in a biological organism, and metabolic profiling can give an instantaneous ‘snapshot’ of the physiology of that cell. Together with the other more established omics technologies, metabolomics will strengthen its claim to contribute to the detailed understanding of the in vivo function of gene products, biochemical analysis, regulatory networks and more ambitious, the mathematical description and simulation of the whole cell in the systems biology approach. This phenomenon will allow the construction of designer organisms for process application using biotransformation and fermentative approaches making effective use of single enzymes, whole microbial and even higher cells and allows the connection of data from genomics, proteomics to enables coordinating the timing of the analysis to physiologically important windows.

Exploring oxidative stress and the anti-oxidant defense system in chronic diseases: therapeutic strategies and future perspective
Ageing is facilitated by oxidative stress (OS), which happens spontaneously. Several studies have demonstrated that OS over an extended period of time has a role in the emergence of several chronic illnesses. Diabetes, cancer, and heart disease are a few examples of these ailments. An imbalance between the body's antioxidants ...read more
Impact of brain tissue binding and plasma protein binding of drugs in DMPK
The impression of brain tissue binding (BTB) or plasma protein binding (PPB) in Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics is critical to understanding the distribution, efficacy, and potential toxicity of drugs that target the central nervous system (CNS). BTB and high PPB influence the distribution of drugs in the body and their ...read more
Interaction between drugs and endocrine diseases
The introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy accelerated studies and our understanding on the interaction between pharmacological therapies and endocrine diseases. Drugs can precipitate endocrine via different mechanisms, including direct alteration of hormone production and secretion, dysregulation of hormonal axis, effects on hormonal transport, receptor-binding, and cellular signalling. Common drug-induced ...read more
Safety evaluation of vaccine combination
Vaccine combination safety evaluation is a critical field within immunology and public health that focuses on assessing the safety and efficacy of combining different vaccines to maximize protection against various diseases while minimizing potential adverse effects. This process is significant because it ensures that vaccines can be administered together without ...read more
