← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a pharmaceutical protein drug undergoes molecular aggregation during storage?
A)Reduced bioavailability and immunogenicity✓
B)Increased therapeutic enzymatic activity
C)Enhanced rate of drug clearance
D)Improved protein folding equilibrium
💡 Explanation
Protein aggregation reduces effectiveness because increased size reduces solubility and promotes immune responses; the therapeutic effect declines through decreased drug absorption via steric hindrance, generating immunogenic oligomers rather than improving efficacy, therefore resulting in reduced bioavailability.
