Understanding how drugs traverse cellular membranes and reach their targets is fundamental to effective pharmacotherapy. This book examines the intricate processes of drug transport, including passive diffusion, active transport, and endocytosis. It explores the cellular mechanisms that influence drug distribution, efficacy, and toxicity, highlighting the role of transport proteins and cellular barriers. Designed for pharmacologists, biochemists, and healthcare professionals, it provides a comprehensive overview of drug transport dynamics and their implications for drug development and clinical practice.
Noah Payne is a leading dermatologist specializing in drug transport and cellular mechanisms, focusing on how medications traverse cellular barriers and exert their effects in the skin. His research investigates the pathways and mechanisms by which dermatological drugs are absorbed, distributed, and interact with skin cells at the molecular level. Noah has published extensively on optimizing drug delivery systems and enhancing cellular uptake to improve the efficacy of dermatological treatments. He has developed comprehensive drug transport and cellular mechanism protocols that enhance targeted therapy for skin conditions.
