Pharmacokinetics & Drug Transport
Philip E. Empey, Pharm.D., Ph.D., BCPS Assistant Professor, Department of Pharmacy and Therapeutics

University of Pittsburgh
Pharmacokinetics The study of the time course of a drug in
the body and the biological and chemical processes affecting absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.

Pharmacokinetics
Transport proteins in other organs
Some drugs are transported, some act to inhibit these processes leading to drug interactions! Penicillin/probenecid & quinidine/digoxin
Some physiological conditions or diseases change transporter gene expression
Breast Physiology
Modified from Breastfeeding (1994) by RA Lawrence
Transporters in breast barrier cellsTransporters upregulated
during lactation
Transporters expressed in LMECs at a level
similar or greater than other secretory tissues
10*7

Research techniques Collect breast milk, measure transporter gene expression. Compare drug concentrations in milk and blood in humans
and animals. Grow breast cells in culture and measure drug transport. Develop models to help predict which drugs accumulate in
breast milk.

Liver is the site of drug metabolism

Patients in a coma after heart attack now are having their body temperature lowered as a therapy, also being tested for spinal cord injury and trauma.

Concentration-time curves
Children with brain injuries
Measure drug concentrations in the brain and the blood to see cold temperature effect.
