Study monitoring – why is it important?

Guy Healing, Senior Toxicologist at ApconiX is interviewed by Jon Clements of Metamorphic PR What is study monitoring and why is it important to drug discovery projects? Pharma companies need to ensure their drugs are safe but also that they work. In drug development this requires numerous studies to be presented to international regulators, and [...]

Differential expression of cyclin-dependent kinases in the adult human retina in relation to CDK inhibitor retinotoxicity

Abstract Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are a family of kinases associated predominantly with cell cycle control, making CDK inhibitors interesting candidates for anti-cancer therapeutics. However, retinal toxicity (loss of photoreceptors) has been associated with CDK inhibitors, including the pan-CDK inhibitor AG-012896. The purpose of this research was to use a novel planar sectioning technique to determine [...]
