The first chapter deals with metabolic factors affecting the biological activities of androgens. In the second chapter the structure-activity theories are reviewed. A new approach to the structure-activity relationship is offered in Chapter 3. The effects of structural and stereochemical changes on biological activities are extensively analyzed in this chapter. A new theory of steroid-receptor interaction concludes this chapter.

Various factors affect the activities of the enzymes metabolizing xenobiotics. The activities of these enzymes may differ substantially among species. Thus, for example, the possible toxicity or carcinogenicity of xenobiotics cannot be extrapolated freely from one species to another. There are significant differences in enzyme activities among individuals, many of which appear to be due to genetic factors. The activities of some of these enzymes vary according to age and sex. 

Transgenic E. coli accumulate comparatively low levels of carotenoids " compared to microbial algae, yeasts, and bacteria. Many efforts ° have focused on increasing accumulation by manipulation of factors affecting metabolic flux and metabolite accnmnlation (listed and discnssed in Sections 5.3.1.1 and 5.3.1.3 A) and have been reviewed." - " In bacterial systems, approaches to control can be categorized as either infrastructural (plasmids, enzymes, strains) or ultrastructural (media and feeding, enviromnent, precursor pools, substrate flux). 

Factors Affecting Allelochemical Production or Release and their Modes of Action. This area of research should prove fruitful for the plant physiologists and biochemists who are interested in regulation of plant metabolism. Studies to date have been limited to only a few compounds.

A biologically important factor affecting drug absorption is drug metabolism or reaction coincident with diffusion across a membrane. The reaction often produces inactive or less potent products than the parent drug. It is conceivable that the reaction will also reduce the drug flux into the systemic circulation. We are interested in the effect of reaction on membrane diffusion. 

The production of ligninolytic enzymes takes place during the secondary metabolism of several WRF. The lignin degrading system is induced when starvation of C or N occurs moreover, agitation and temperature can significantly affect the levels of these enzymes factors affecting LMEs are reviewed by Gao et al.

Nearly 15 years after Patched s speech, we still face the same problems that he highlighted. Medicinal chemists often synthesize a potent molecule and find later that it has poor exposure in vivo, and thus poor efficacy. Poor exposure can be caused by many different factors. Most of the factors affecting exposure are commonly known by acronym ADME - absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. A fifth factor, solubility, is also very important and is commonly considered to be part of ADME. 

The duration of acclimation is affected by several environmental factors, such as temperature, pH, aeration status, and nutrients. The concentration of the compound that is being metabolized greatly affects the length of time before a decline in its concentration is detectable. The rate of biodegradation of trace compounds increases with concentration, but because compound loss is usually determined and not C02 or product formation, the low precision of analysis leads to data indicating a longer acclimation at higher concentration [104,106,113,128]. 

While cotinine functions fairly well as a marker of nicotine intake, it is not perfect due to individual variation in metalxtlism as discussed previously. As described earlier in this chapter, cotinine metabolism is affected by factors such as race, gender, age, genetic variation in the liver enzyme CYP2A6, and/or by the presence of pregnancy, liver or kidney disease. Another limitation to the use of cotinine is that, given an average half-life of 16 h, cotinine levels reflect relatively short-term exposure to tobacco (that is, over the past 3 days).
