Description

Drug Molecular pharmacologists are engaged in molecular research on medicines and natural products used to treat diseases, and study diseases on a molecular basis with the aim of developing pharmacologically active drugs that can be used to treat diseases. Employment in this area is generally limited to those with a college degree and often does postdoctoral work in this area. One of the most important aspects of molecular pharmacology understands how drugs work on a molecular basis. For patients taking antibiotics for infections, the molecular explanation of the efficacy of the drug may seem less important while they are working, but for molecular pharmacologists. Molecular pharmacologists understand how drugs attack the bacteria that cause infection, how bacteria develop antibiotic resistance, and how pharmaceutical companies develop new antibiotics that target antibiotic-resistant bacteria at the molecular level.

Molecular pharmacologists are also interested in molecular pathology, which is the study of disease progression at the molecular level. This is especially relevant for spontaneously occurring malignancies. Understanding the number of malignancies that develop can be an important part of developing drugs that target these malignancies. Molecular pharmacology researchers are also interested in developing highly sophisticated drugs that can combat malignant diseases and thereby reduce patient side effects. It is also important to understand the molecular structure of the drug. From a pharmaceutical company's point of view, possible about their drugs as they help protect patents, develop similar drugs, organize drug families, and understand how drugs work. It makes sense to know as much as you can. The molecular biology approach has greatly expanded our knowledge of the structure and function of drug discovery targets such as receptors, enzymes and transport molecules, revealing far more diversity than previously envisioned. The obvious effects of biologically active chemicals are explained. Pharmacology is currently studying the molecular mechanisms by which drugs produce biological effects.

In the broadest sense, pharmacology is concerned with how both natural and synthetic chemicals affect biological systems. This includes investigating drug derivation, chemical properties, physiological and behavioral effects and mechanisms of action, biological transformations, and therapeutic and non-therapeutic use. Pharmacological studies can determine the effects of chemicals on intracellular, systemic, physiologic, or behavioral processes. Focus on the treatment and prevention of illness. Or address the potential dangers of pesticides and herbicides. Pharmacology is often referred to as bridge science because it covers knowledge and skills from many basic scientific disciplines such as physiology, biochemistry, cell and molecular biology. Pharmacologists can "transform" this knowledge into rational development of treatments. Interdisciplinary training allows pharmacologists to provide their own perspectives on solving drug, hormonal, and chemical problems.

Conclusion

The interdisciplinary nature of this field provides pharmacologists with a variety of research opportunities not found in other areas of scientific research. It is this flexibility and the potential for practical application of research that drives people to become pharmacologists. The University of California, San Diego's Faculty of Pharmacology is known for its strengths in elucidating the basic cellular and molecular mechanisms of signal transduction, and is home to the newly established center, Cell Signaling San Diego. Most of researchers’ members in this field are committed to research efforts that have a direct impact on human health, supported by cardiovascular, inflammation and metabolic disorders. The strengths of the faculties in the field of cancer biology are noteworthy, as evidenced by the number of faculties assigned to the field of cancer biology. Further research focuses on structural biology, computer-assisted structural control drug design, systems biology, and bioinformatics and environmental health sciences.
