"Molecular pathology offers tools and techniques that can greatly enhance the drug discovery and development process, helping to make the promises of personalized medicine a reality. Molecular Pathology in Drug Discovery and Development provides an unmatched guide to this cutting-edge discipline and its applications to pharmaceutical science.With contributions from leading lights in drug discovery, drug development, and molecular pathology balanced by a consistent editorial approach, this reference offers both an overview of molecular pathology and a close look at the methods as they are applied to the process of drug discovery and development. Presented as steps in the drug development process, the coverage includes the use of molecular pathology to :

• Identify and validate new drug candidates
• Enhance transcriptional profiling to better find and validate biomarkers
• Assess toxicology
• Employ toxicogenomics to identify genes relevant to the safety of compounds
• Identify correct doses for different drugs
• Identify patients for treatment
• Develop molecular therapies
• Further the new techniques of Immunohistochemistry and Immunofluorescence

With many tests and treatments already working today, drug research and development using molecular pathology has shown itself an extremely fruitful area. Molecular pathology in drug Discovery and development gives practitioners an up-to-date resource on this highly active discipline and its role in furthering pharmaceutical research."

"This unique reference source, edited by the world's most respected expert on molecular interaction field software, covers all relevant principles of the GRID force field and its applications in medicinal chemistry. Entire chapters on 3D-QSAR, pharmacophore searches, docking studies, metabolism predictions and protein selectivity studies, among others, offer a concise overview of this emerging field. "

"This book contains case studies of the discovery of erythromycin analogs (antibiotics), Tagamet, and Ultiva (remifentanil). Discusses the discovery of agents for the treatment and management of bacterial infections, Parkinson's disease, psoriasis, ulcers and stomach pain, atopic dermatitis, asthma, and cancer. Contains chapters on combinatorial chemistry, molecular biology-based drug discovery, genomics, and chemogenomics.The first volume of this set thoroughly describes conceptualizing a drug, creating a library of candidates for testing, screening those candidates for in vitro and in vivo activity, conducting and analyzing the results of clinical trials, and revising the drug as necessary."

"This handbook provides the first-ever inside view of today's integrated approach to rational drug design. Chemoinformatics experts from large pharmaceutical companies, as well as from chemoinformatics service providers and from academia demonstrate what can be achieved today by harnessing the power of computational methods for the drug discovery process. With the user rather than the developer of chemoinformatics software in mind, this book describes the successful application of computational tools to real-life problems and presents solution strategies to commonly encountered problems. It shows how almost every step of the drug discovery pipeline can be optimized and accelerated by using chemoinformatics tools-from the management of compound databases to targeted combinatorial synthesis, virtual screening and efficient hit-to-lead transition.

"Born out of a project of the IUPAC's committee on Medicinal Chemistry and Drug Development, this reference addresses past and current strategies for successful drug analog development, extending the previously published volume by nine new analog classes and eight case studies. Like its precursor, this volume also contains a general section discussing universally applicable strategies for analog discovery and development. Spanning a wide range of therapeutic fields and chemical classes, the two volumes together constitute the first systematic approach to drug analog development."

"The drug discovery handbook gives professionals a tool to facilitate drug discovery by bringing together, for the first time in one resource, a compendium of methods and techniques that need to be considered when developing new drugs. This comprehensive, practical guide presents an explanation of the latest techniques and methods in drug discovery, including: genomics, proteomics, high-throughput screening, and systems biology; summaries of how these techniques and methods are used to discover new central nervous system agents, antiviral agents, respiratory drugs, oncology drugs, and more; and, specific approaches to drug discovery, including problems that are encountered, solutions to these problems, and limitations of various methods and techniques.
