The document discusses the dynamics of drug absorption and distribution. It describes how physicochemical factors like molecular size, ionization, and lipid solubility determine how drugs pass through membranes. Drugs can cross cell membranes through passive diffusion, facilitated transport, or active transport. Absorption involves drugs crossing membranes and entering blood circulation, which depends on factors like solubility, molecular size, and dosage form. Distribution involves drugs spreading throughout tissues, influenced by blood flow, protein binding, and access to different compartments like the brain or placenta.

Neurotransmission (Latin: transmission "passage, crossing" from transmitter "send, let through"), is the process by which signalling molecules called neurotransmitters are released by the axon terminal of a neuron and bind to and react with the receptors on the dendrites of another neuron
Classification of receptors family by vivek sharmaAnimatedWorld
Definition- Receptor are the biologic molecule to which drug bind and produces a measurable response.
So, enzyme and structural proteins can be considerd to be pharmacologic receptors.
Majorly receptor are of 4 types and the molecule or a drug interact to receptor to give response often called as ligand.
The type of receptor a ligand will bind is depend on the nature of ligand.
Hydrophilliic ligand binds to the receptor found on the cell surface.
Hydrophobic ligand can enter the cell membrane to intract the receptor present on inside the cells.

Presentation covers the basics of pharmacokinetic. Mechanism for the transport of drug molecule. Absorption, factors affecting on absorption of drugs. Concept of bioavailability. Distribution, plasma protein binding, tissue binding, barriers.
Pharmacokinetics (PK) is the study of how the body interacts with administered substances for the entire duration of exposure (medications for the sake of this article). This is closely related to but distinctly different from pharmacodynamics, which examines the drug's effect on the body more closely.
Pharmacokinetics (Greek: Kinesis—movement)
This refers to movement of the drug in and alteration of the drug by the body; includes absorption, distribution, binding/ localization/ storage, biotransformation and excretion of the drug.
Bioavailability: is a subcategory of absorption.
Bioavailability is a measurement of the rate and extent to which a drug reaches at the site of action determined by its concentration-time curve in blood or by its excretion in urine.
Two preparations of a drug are considered bioequivalent when the rate and extent of bioavailability of the active drug from them is not significantly different under suitable test conditions
The clearance of a drug is the theoretical volume of plasma from which the drug is completely removed in unit time.
Pharmacokinetics is the study of the movement of drug molecules in the body. It includes absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs. Pharmacokinetics is the study of what happens to drugs once they enter the body (the movement of the drugs into, within, and out of the body). For a drug to produce its specific response, it should be present in adequate concentrations at the site of action. This depends on various factors apart from the dose.
Four pharmacokinetic properties determine the onset, intensity, and the duration of drug action (Figure 1.6.1):
• Absorption: First, absorption from the site of administration permits entry of the drug (either directly or indirectly) into plasma.
• Distribution: Second, the drug may then reversibly leave the bloodstream and distribute it into the interstitial and intracellular fluids.
• Metabolism: Third, the drug may be biotransformed by metabolism by the liver or other tissues.
• Elimination: Finally, the drug and its metabolites are eliminated from the body in urine, bile, or feces.
In short, pharmacokinetics means what the body does to the drug.
Pharmacokinetics, sometimes described as what the body does to a drug, refers to the movement of drug into, through, and out of the body—the time course of its absorption, bioavailability, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

1. The dynamics of drug absorption and
distribution
Presented by : Tailor Himani Rajubhai
Department of Pharmacology
L. M. College Of Pharmacy
2. Physicochemical factors in transfer of drugs
across membranes:
• The determining characteristics of the drug are
its molecular size and shape, degree of
ionization, relative lipid solubility of its ionized
and unionized forms, and its binding to tissue
proteins.
• Despite of structural differences the diffusion
and transport of drugs across these various
boundaries have many common characteristics,
since drugs in general pass through cells rather
than between them. The plasma membrane
thus represents the common barrier.
• Drug molecules can cross cell membrane by:
passive diffusion; protein-mediated transport (
facilitated and active transport)
3. Biological Membrane
• Bilayer of amphipathic lipid
hydrocarbon chains oriented
inward to form a continues
hydrophilic tail and hydrophilic
head oriented outward.
• Membrane proteins embedded
in the bilayer serve as receptors,
ion channel or transporters to
elicit electrical or chemical
signaling pathways and provide
selective targets for drug action.
-
4. Passage of drug across cell membrane
• The cell membrane acts as a biological barrier. The following are the
processes by which a drug can cross biological membrane
1. Passive transport
-Diffusion(simple)
-Filtration
-osmosis
2. Specialized transport
-Active transport
*Primary active transport(direct active transport)
*secondary active transport(co-transport)
6. A. Passive membrane transport
• This transport is energy independent and no utilization of ATPs.
a. Diffusion (simple)
• Diffusion is the net movement of drug molecules from an area of high concentration to an area with lower
concentration.
• The difference of concentration between the two areas is termed as the concentration gradient, and
diffusion will continue until this gradient has been eliminated.
• Diffusion across the cell membrane depends on concentration gradient and lipid solubility. Lipid solubility
depends on ionization. Un-ionized drugs are more lipid soluble and are better absorbed (more reabsorbed
in the kidneys and less excreted).
• Ionized drugs are less lipid soluble and are less absorbed (less reabsorbed in kidneys and more excreted).
Ionization depends on pH of drug and pH of the medium (surrounding fluid).
• If the pH is the same the drug remain unionized and become more lipid soluble and absorbed better. Acidic
drugs like aspirin, barbiturates, etc. are better absorbed from the stomach. Alkaline drugs like morphine,
atropine, and chloroquine are better absorbed from the small intestine. If pH is opposite-> drug is ionized->
less lipid soluble-> less absorption (e.g. alkaline drugs are poorly absorbed in the stomach). .
7. b. Filtration and Osmosis
• This can be accelerated if hydrodynamic flow of the solvent is
occurring under hydrostatic or osmotic pressure gradient. E.g: across
most capillaries including glomeruli.
Filtration- is movement of drugs through aqueous pores in the
membrane or through paracellular spaces.
• Lipid insoluble drugs can cross the biological membrane by filtration if
the molecular size is smaller than that of the diameter of pores.
Osmosis-Osmosis is the movement of water molecule through the cell
membrane (semi permeable membrane) from the region of higher
water concentration to the region of less water concentration is called
osmosis
8.
9. Weak electrolytes and influence of pH
• Most drugs are- weak acids or bases.
• Non-ionized molecules- lipid soluble- diffuse across membrane.
• Transmembrane distribution of weak electrolyte is usually
determined by its pKa and pH gradient. pKa is numerically equal to
the pH at which the drug is 50% ionized.
• Henderson- hasselbalch equation: for weak acid,
• pH= pKa+ log [A-]/ [HA] where, A- is ionized and HA is unionized drug.
If concentration of both is equal then log 1= 0 hence pH= pKa.
• If pH is increased by scale 1 scale then log [A-]/ [HA] =1 or [A-]/ [HA]
=10. Similarly if reduced by 1 then [A-]/ [HA] = 1/10.
11. a. Facilitated diffusion(solute carrier SLC transporters)-It is the movement
of drug molecules across the cell membrane via special transport proteins
that are present within the cellular membrane.
• Many large molecules, such as glucose, are insoluble in lipids and too large
to pass through the membrane pores. Therefore, it will bind with its specific
carrier proteins, and moved through the cellular membrane.
12. • Active transport- In active transport, the drug molecule penetrates in
the lipid bilayer membrane from lower concentration to the higher
concentration of solutes against the concentration gradient by utilizing
energy (ATP) and with the help of carrier proteins.
• There are two types
- Primary active transport and
-secondary active transport.
14. Absorption
• Absorption is the movement or transfer of a drug from it’s site of
application into the blood circulation.
• Not only the fraction of administered dose that gets absorbed, but also the
rate of absorption is important
• When a drug is administered intravenously, absorption is not required
because the drug is transferred from the administration device directly
into the bloodstream. In the case of intravenous administration, the entire
dose of the drug is available to move to the sites of drug action.
• Drug administration by other routes may result in only partial absorption
and thus, lower bioavailability.
• Passage of drug across cell membrane- The cell membrane acts as a
biological barrier.
15. Factors affecting absorption
1. Lipid solubility- Absorption of drugs depends on lipid solubility.
Absorption is more if the drug is lipid soluble. Lipid solubility depends
on ionization. Un-ionized drugs are more lipid soluble and are better
absorbed. Ionized drugs are less lipid soluble and are less absorbed.
2. Molecular size- Smaller the molecular size of the drug rapid is the
absorption.
3. Particle size - Particle may be composed either of a single molecule
or more than hundred molecules. Larger is the particle size, slower will
be the diffusion and absorption and vice versa.
16. 4. Degree of ionization- Un-ionized drugs are more lipid soluble and
are better absorbed (more reabsorbed in the kidneys and less
excreted). Ionized drugs are less lipid soluble and are less absorbed
(less reabsorbed in kidneys and more excreted). Ionization depends on
pH of drug and pH of the medium (surrounding fluid). If the pH is the
same the drug remain unionized and become lipid soluble and
absorbed better. (e.g. acidic drugs like aspirin, barbiturates, etc. are
better absorbed from the stomach. Weakly alkaline drugs like
morphine, atropine, chloroquine are better absorbed from the small
intestine.
5. Physical forms- Drugs may exist as solids, liquids or gases. Gases are
rapidly absorbed than the liquids, while liquids are rapidly absorbed
than the solids. Thus the drugs in syrup or suspension form are rapidly
absorbed than the tablets or capsules. Volatile general anaesthetics
absorbed rapidly through the pulmonary route.
.
17. 6. Chemical nature-Chemical nature is responsible for the selection of the
route of drug administration. Examples- Heparin is a drug with large
molecular weight, and is cannot be given orally, insulin is degraded if given
orally, benzyl penicillin also get degraded if given orally. Hence these drugs
should be administered parenterally to avoid the inactivation
7. Dosage forms- Dosage forms affect the rate and extent of absorption.
Example – nitroglycerin when given by sublingual route disintegrates rapidly
but stays for a shorter duration. When it is given orally, it disintegrates slowly
and stays for longer duration.
8. Concentration - If the drug concentration increases the drug absorption
across the cell membrane also increases.
9. Area of absorptive surface- Most of the drugs are given orally because of
the large area of absorptive surface, so that greater absorption occurs.
Organophosphate compounds (insecticides) are highly lipid soluble and
poisoning can occur even by absorption through skin.
18. 10.Vascularity - If the vascularity (blood supply) is more, the drug absorption
also increases. In shock, the blood supply decreases, hence the drug
absorption decreases. During IM inj massage increases vascular supply and
drug absorption
11. pH – Acidic pH favours the absorption of acidic drugs and basic pH
favours the absorption of basic drugs.
12. Presence of other substances- Food can increase or decrease the drug
absorption. Examples- Atorvastatin is better absorbed when taken with the
food. Milk decreases the absorption of iron. Vitamin C enhances the
absorption of iron. Milk decreases the absorption of tetracycline.
13. GI motility- The drug absorption gets altered in diarrhoea or
constipation.
14-Diseases- In diarrhoea drug absorption decreases, malabsorptive
syndrome- decreases drug absorption, in achlorhydria – decreases the
absorption of acidic drugs.
19. DRUG DISTRIBUTION
• Once in the blood, drugs are simultaneously distributed throughout
the body and eliminated. Typically, distribution is much more rapid
than elimination, is accomplished via the circulation, and is influenced
by regional blood flow.
Volume of Distribution (Vd)
Definition: Apparent Volume of distribution is defined as the volume
that would accommodate all the drugs in the body, if the concentration
was the same as in plasma,
Expressed as: in Liters
Vd =
Dose administered IV
Plasma concentration
20. A. Compartments
1. Central Compartment
• The central compartment includes the well-perfused organs and
tissues
• (heart, blood, liver, brain and kidney) with which drug equilibrates
rapidly.
21. 2. Peripheral Compartment(s)
• The peripheral compartment(s) include(s) those organs (e.g., adipose
and skeletal muscle) which are less well-perfused, and with which
drug therefore equilibrates more slowly.
• Redistribution from one compartment to another often alters the
duration of effect at the target tissue.
• For example, thiopental, a highly lipid-soluble drug, induces
anaesthesia within seconds because of rapid equilibration between
blood and brain.
• Despite the fact that the drug is slowly metabolized, however, the
duration of anesthesia is short because of drug redistribution into
adipose tissue, which can act as a storage site, or drug reservoir.
22. 3. Special compartment
• Several special compartments deserve mention.
• Entry of drug into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and central nervous
system (CNS) is restricted by the structure of the capillaries and
pericapillary glial cells (the choroid plexus is an exception).
• The blood-brain barrier limits the success of antibiotics, anticancer
drugs and other agents used to treat CNS diseases.
• Drugs also have relatively poor access to pericardial fluid, bronchial
secretions and fluid in the middle ear, thus making the treatment of
infections in these regions difficult.
23.
24. B. Protein Binding
• Many drugs bind to plasma proteins.
Weak acids and neutral drugs bind particularly to albumin,
while basic drugs tend to bind to alpha-1-acid glycoprotein
(orosomucoid).
25. Effects on drug distribution
• Only that fraction of the plasma drug concentration which is freely
circulating (i.e., unbound) can penetrate cell membranes.
• Protein binding thus decreases the net transfer of drug across
membranes.
• Drug binding to plasma proteins is generally weak and rapidly
reversible, however, so that protein-bound drug can be considered to
be in a temporary storage compartment.
• The protein concentration of extravascular fluids (e.g., CSF, lymph,
synovial fluid) is very low.
• The extent of protein binding must be considered in interpreting
"blood levels" of drugs.
26. Placental Transfer of Drugs
• The transfer of drugs across the placenta is of critical importance
because drugs may cause anomalies in the developing fetus.
• Administered immediately before delivery, as is often the case with
the use of tocolytics in the treatment of preterm labor, they also may
have adverse effects on the neonate.
• As in the brain, P-gp and other export transporters are present in the
placenta and function to limit fetal exposure to potentially toxic
agents.
