iomimetic HPLC stationary phases such as immobilized artificial
membrane (IAM), human serum albumin (Chiral-HSA) and α-1-glycoprotein
(Chiral-AgP) are able to mimic the
in vivo
interactions of the drug molecules to
lipids and proteins. The calibrated retention times obtained on the biomimetic
HPLC stationary phases can be used to build models for
in vivo
tissue-
plasma partition, unbound volume of distribution, drug efficiency, and cellular
concentration without using animal experiments. The measurements can be
fully automated and large number of compounds can be ranked for further
studies for the fraction of the cost of
in vivo
experiments. The methodology can
be applied for new modalities in drug discovery such as peptides that would
be difficult to characterize by traditional methods such as equilibrium dialysis
to estimate their tissue binding and volume of distribution. Comparison of IAM
partition and membrane disruption of antibiotic peptides has been investigated
in order to predict their interactions with lipids. The chromatographic retention
of potential drug molecules on biomimetic stationary phases can mimic their
in vivo
binding to lipids and proteins that was validated using human clinical
data of over 150 known drug molecules.
