A parasympathomimetic drug, sometimes called a cholinomimetic drug [1] or cholinergic receptor stimulating agent, [2] is a substance that stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS).
Electroosmotic pumps are fabricated from silica nanospheres [6] [7] or hydrophilic porous glass, the pumping mechanism is generated by an external electric field applied on an electric double layer (EDL), generates high pressures (e.g., more than 340 atm (34 MPa) at 12 kV applied potentials) and high flow rates (e.g., 40 ml/min at 100 V in a pumping structure less than 1 cm 3 in volume).
Diagram showing the site of injection of the product Vasalgel, a vasectomy alternative. Reversible inhibition of sperm under guidance (RISUG), formerly referred to as the synthetic polymer styrene maleic anhydride (SMA), is the development name of a male contraceptive injection developed at IIT Kharagpur in India by the team of Dr. Sujoy K. Guha.
Agents in common clinical use include: [1] [2] Prostaglandin analogs; Parasympathomimetic (miotic) agents, including cholinergic and anticholinesterase agents; Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (oral and topical)
The proton pump is the terminal stage in gastric acid secretion, being directly responsible for secreting H + ions into the gastric lumen, making it an ideal target for inhibiting acid secretion. [ citation needed ] Because the H,K-ATPase is the final step of acid secretion, an inhibitor of this enzyme is more effective than receptor ...
Renin inhibitors are pharmaceutical drugs inhibiting the activity of renin that is responsible for hydrolyzing angiotensinogen to angiotensin I, [2] [3] [4] which in turn reduces the formation of angiotensin II that facilitates blood pressure.
The use of nanoemulgel enhances patient compliance because the use of gel is less greasy than traditional cream or ointment, hence there is less incident in skin irritation. [16] Nanoemulgel increases the topical drug bioavailability by inserting the lipophilic drug molecules into the oil droplet of the nanoemulgel and it will travel through ...
An efflux pump is an active transporter in cells that moves out unwanted material. Efflux pumps are an important component in bacteria in their ability to remove antibiotics. [ 1 ] The efflux could also be the movement of heavy metals, organic pollutants, plant-produced compounds, quorum sensing signals, bacterial metabolites and ...
