Evolutie in de pediatrische farmacologie: microdosing, metabolisme en membraan transporters
The aims of this thesis are:
• To study the extent of oral drugs used in neonatal and pediatric intensive care.
• To review the current knowledge of age-related variation in processes that govern oral drug absorption.
• To review the current literature on human membrane transporters during childhood.
• To assess the ontogeny of relevant human membrane transporters gene and protein expression in pediatric intestinal and hepatic tissues.
• To study the feasibility of [14C]-labeled microdosing studies in children.
• To investigate the effect of age on the combined intestinal and hepatic glucuronidation and sulfation in young children, using a paracetamol microdosing study.
