This overview highlights the collaborative contributions of Dr. Richard R. Almon and his colleagues in the field of systems biology, with a focus on their research on pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and gene expression relevant to complex biological systems. Their work encompasses quantitative modeling and experimental approaches investigating diseases such as arthritis, diabetes, and asthma, while employing advanced techniques like RT-PCR for gene expression analysis. Key insights from their recent publications reveal mechanisms of action and therapeutic implications of various pharmacological agents.

  3. What is systems Biology? • The study of phenomena that impact the intact organism • Multiple levels from Molecular Biology to Systems Physiology • Multiple Tissues (liver, muscle, kidney, abdominal fat, lung) • Time dynamics • Quantitative hypotheses

  4. The Approach: Giant Rat Time Series Dynamic Response Time

  5. Rotation Projects • Cloning a gene by PCR and developing a quantitative assay for that gene (cRNA standards) • Isolating total RNA from a set of tissues and quantifying the expression of a gene by real time RTPCR

  6. Current Projects • Arthritis • Anti-inflammatory Pharmacology • Circadian Rhythms • Diabetes • Bioinformatics • Asthma
