OT-7100 (5-n-butyl-7-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoylamino)pyrazolo[1,5-a] pyrimidine) is an amide moiety-bearing pyrazolopyrimidine derivative with a potential analgesic effect. To determine the factors responsible for observed species differences in the bioavailability of this drug, human and experimental animal samples were used to investigate in vitro microsomal and cytosolic hydrolase activities in the liver and small intestine vis-à-vis the pharmacokinetics of OT-7100. The AUC(0-t) values of OT-7100 after oral administration in rats, dogs and monkeys were 0.163, 0.0383 and 0.00147 microg h ml(-1) divided by mg kg(-1), respectively. The bioavailabilities of OT-7100 after oral administration in rats, dogs and monkeys were 36, 17 and 0.3%, respectively. The plasma concentration-time profiles of intravenously administrated OT-7100 in rats, dogs and monkeys were similar. The hydrolase activities toward OT-7100 in liver microsomes or cytosol were approximately similar in rats, dogs, monkeys and humans. In contrast, hydrolase activities of small intestinal microsomes from monkeys were higher (36.1 ng mg protein(-1) min(-1)) than those of rats, dogs and humans (5.4, 1.4 and 4.3 ng mg protein(-1) min(-1), respectively). These results suggest that the primary factor influencing first-pass metabolism for the OT-7100 is enzymatic hydrolysis in the small intestine. This information provides an important index for extrapolating the pharmacokinetics of drugs in humans using studies on monkeys.  相似文献

A comparative study of bromhexine metabolism and excretory pathways demonstrated considerable species differences. The rabbit showed almost similarity to the human metabolic pattern, the rat, the least similarity, with the dog and mouse taking up intermediate positions. The formation of 3,5-dibromoanthranilic acid as a further metabolite is reported.  相似文献

Abstract

1. Prediction of human pharmacokinetics might be made more precise by using species with similar metabolic activities to humans. We had previously reported the species differences in intestinal and hepatic metabolic activities of 43 cytochrome P450 (CYP) substrates between cynomolgus monkeys and humans. However, the species differences between humans and rats or dogs had not yet been determined using comparable data sets with sufficient number of compounds.

2. Here, we investigated metabolic stabilities in intestinal and liver microsomes obtained from rats, dogs and humans using 43 substrates of human CYP1A2, CYP2J2, CYP2C, CYP2D6 and CYP3A.

3. Hepatic intrinsic clearance (CLint) values for most compounds in dogs were comparable to those in humans (within 10-fold), whereas in rats, those for the human CYP2D6 substrates were much higher and showed low correlation with humans. In dog intestine, as with human intestine, CLint values for almost all human CYP1A2, CYP2C, CYP2D6 substrates were not determined because they were very low. Intestinal CLint values for human CYP3A substrates in rats and dogs appeared to be lower for most of the compounds and showed moderate correlation with those in humans.

4. In conclusion, dogs showed the most similar metabolic activity to humans.  相似文献

Metabolism of 1,3-butadiene to 1,2-epoxybutene-3 in rats follows saturation kinetics. Comparative investigation of inhalation pharmacokinetics in mice also revealed a saturation pattern. For both species linear pharmacokinetics apply at exposure concentrations below 1000 ppm 1,3-butadiene; saturation of butadiene metabolism is observed at atmospheric concentrations of about 2000 ppm.For mice metabolic clearance per kg body weight in the lower concentration range where first order metabolism applies was 7300ml×h–1 (rat: 4500 ml×h–1). Maximal metabolic elimination rate (Vmax) was 400 mol×h–1 ×kg–1 (rat: 220 mol ×h–1×kg–1). This shows that 1,3-butadiene is metabolized by mice at higher rates compared to rats.Based on these investigations, the metabolic elimination rates of butadiene in both species were calculated for the exposure concentrations applied in two inhalation bioassays with rats and with mice. The results show that the higher rate of butadiene metabolism in mice when compared to rats may only in part be responsible for the considerable difference in the susceptibility of both species to butadiene-induced carcinogenesis.  相似文献

Intestinal introluminal pressure was measured in vivo in anesthetized guinea pigs, dogs, cats ad monkeys. In guinea pigs, but not in the other species, the intestinal stimulatory effect of 5-hydroxytryptamine was antagonized by morphine. The 5-HT-blocking action of morphine in intestine seems to be unique to the guinea pig.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to compare the hepatic and small intestinal metabolism, and to examine bioavailability and gastro‐intestinal first‐pass effects, of kaempferol in rats. Liver and small intestinal microsomes fortified with either NADPH or UDPGA were incubated with varying concentrations of kaempferol for up to 120 min. Based on the values of the kinetic constants (Km and Vmax), the propensity for UDPGA‐dependent conjugation compared with NADPH‐dependent oxidative metabolism was higher for both hepatic and small intestinal microsomes. Male Sprague‐Dawley rats were administered kaempferol intravenously (i.v.) (10, 25 mg/kg) or orally (100, 250 mg/kg). Gastro‐intestinal first‐pass effects were observed by collecting portal blood after oral administration of 100 mg/kg kaempferol. Pharmacokinetic parameters were obtained by non‐compartmental analysis using WinNonlin. After i.v. administration, the plasma concentration–time profiles for 10 and 25 mg/kg were consistent with high clearance (~3 L/hr/kg) and large volumes of distribution (8–12 L/hr/kg). The disposition was characterized by a terminal half‐life value of 3–4 h. After oral administration the plasma concentration–time profiles demonstrated fairly rapid absorption (tmax~1–2 h). The area under the curve (AUC) values after i.v. and oral doses increased approximately proportional to the dose. The bioavailability (F) was poor at ~2%. Analysis of portal plasma after oral administration revealed low to moderate absorption. Taken together, the low F of kaempferol is attributed in part to extensive first‐pass metabolism by glucuronidation and other metabolic pathways in the gut and in the liver.

To clarify species differences in the metabolism of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) we measured the activity of four DEHP-metabolizing enzymes (lipase, UDP-glucuronyltransferase (UGT), alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH)) in several organs (the liver, lungs, kidneys, and small intestine) of mice (CD-1), rats (Sprague–Dawley), and marmosets (Callithrix jacchus). Lipase activity, measured by the rate of formation of mono(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) from DEHP, differed by 27- to 357-fold among species; the activity was highest in the small intestines of mice and lowest in the lungs of marmosets. This might be because of the significant differences between Vmax/Km values of lipase for DEHP among the species. UGT activity for MEHP in the liver microsomes was highest in mice, followed by rats and marmosets. These differences, however, were only marginal compared with those for lipase activity. ADH and ALDH activity also differed among species; the activity of the former in the livers of marmosets was 1.6–3.9 times greater than in those of rats or mice; the activity of the latter was higher in rats and marmosets (2–14 times) than in mice. These results were quite different from those for lipase or UGT activity. Because MEHP is considered to be the more potent ligand to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor involved in different toxic processes, a possibly major difference in MEHP-formation capacity could be also considered on extrapolation from rodents to humans.  相似文献

Differences in the inhibitory potentials against UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) between species have been reported only rarely, even though the information would be useful for the precise characterization of drug candidates. In this study, the inhibition potentials of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) against UGT-catalyzed estradiol 3beta-glucuronidation (E3G) in the liver microsomes of rats, dogs, and humans were compared. Rat liver microsomes (RLMs) and human liver microsomes (HLMs) exhibited homotropic activation kinetics with S(50) values of 22 and 12 microM, respectively. However, dog liver microsomes (DLMs), exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics with no activation. Among the NSAIDs investigated (diclofenac, diflunisal, fenoprofen, flurbiprofen, ibuprofen, indomethacin, ketoprofen, mefenamic acid, niflumic acid, and sulindac), only niflumic acid and mefenamic acid inhibited E3G potently in all three species. The IC(50) values of NSAIDs against E3G in RLMs and HLMs were within a threefold difference of each other, while those in DLMs was more than three times higher than the other two. In conclusion, RLMs showed an inhibitory pattern similar to that of HLMs, whereas DLMs presented a distinct pattern. These results indicate that a rat animal model would be useful for evaluating the inhibitory potentials of drugs against estradiol glucuronidation, but a dog model would not.  相似文献

1.?This study examined the pharmacokinetics, distribution, metabolism and excretion of the selective prostacyclin receptor agonist selexipag (NS-304; ACT-293987) and its active metabolite MRE-269 (ACT-33679). The compounds were investigated following oral and/or intravenous administration to intact rats, dogs and monkeys, and bile-duct-cannulated rats and dogs.

2.?After oral administration of [14C]selexipag, selexipag was well absorbed in rats and dogs with total recoveries of over 90% of the dose, mainly in the faeces. Biliary excretion was the major elimination pathway for [14C]MRE-269 as well as [14C]selexipag, while renal elimination was of little importance. [14C]Selexipag-related radioactivity was secreted into the milk in lactating rats.

3.?Plasma was analysed for total radioactivity, selexipag and MRE-269 in rats and monkeys. Selexipag was negligible in rat plasma due to extensive metabolism, and MRE-269 was present in rat and monkey plasma. A species difference was clearly evident when selexipag was incubated in rat, dog and monkey plasma.

4.?Total radioactivity was rapidly distributed to tissues. The highest concentrations were found in the bile duct and liver without significant accumulation or persistence, while there was limited melanin-associated binding, penetration of the blood–brain barrier and placental transfer of drug-related materials.  相似文献

Levels of cytochrome P450 (P450 or CYP) proteins immunoreactive to antibodies raised against human CYP1A2, 2A6, 2C9, 2E1, and 3A4, monkey CYP2B17, and rat CYP2D1 were determined in liver microsomes of rats, guinea pigs, dogs, monkeys, and humans. We also examined several drug oxidation activities catalyzed by liver microsomes of these animal species using eleven P450 substrates such as phenacetin, coumarin, pentoxyresorufin, phenytoin, S-mephenytoin, bufuralol, aniline, benzphetamine, ethylmorphine, erythromycin, and nifedipine; the activities were compared with the levels of individual P450 enzymes. Monkey liver P450 proteins were found to have relatively similar immunochemical properties by immunoblotting analysis to the human enzymes, which belong to the same P450 gene families. Mean catalytic activities (on basis of mg microsomal protein) of P450-dependent drug oxidations with eleven substrates were higher in liver microsomes of monkeys than of humans, except that humans showed much higher activities for aniline p-hydroxylation than those catalyzed by monkeys. However, when the catalytic activities of liver microsomes of monkeys and humans were compared on the basis of nmol of P450, both species gave relatively similar rates towards the oxidation of phenacetin, coumarin, pentoxyresorufin, phenytoin, mephenytoin, benzphetamine, ethylmorphine, erythromycin, and nifedipine, while the aniline p-hydroxylation was higher and bufuralol 1′-hydroxylation was lower in humans than monkeys. On the other hand, the immunochemical properties of P450 proteins and the activities of P450-dependent drug oxidation reactions in dogs, guinea pigs, and rats were somewhat different from those of monkeys and humans; the differences in these animal species varied with the P450 enzymes examined and the substrates used. The results presented in this study provide useful information towards species-related differences in susceptibilities of various animal species regarding actions and toxicities of drugs and xenobiotic chemicals.

Soy products containing phytoestrogens have received much attention as dietary components to promote better health. Daidzein, an isoflavone and phytoestrogen component of soy, was investigated for its potential to alter fertility and cause developmental toxicity to the reproductive tract in female rats, for chemoprevention to the mammary gland, and to study its bioavailability. Diets containing 0 mg, 250 mg (low dose), and 1000 mg (high dose) daidzein/kg feed were fed to virgin female rats, starting 2 weeks prior to breeding and continued until the offspring were 50 days postpartum. The serum daidzein concentrations in adult female rats fed the low and high daidzein-containing diets were determined to be 6- and 13-fold higher than serum daidzein concentrations of Asians eating a traditional diet high in soy. Both daidzein doses had no significant effect on fertility, numbers of male and female offspring, and anogenital distances. The high, but not the low, daidzein dose resulted in reduced body weight, a fact that may be explained by reduced feed consumption. Circulating progesterone, but not estrogen, levels were statistically reduced with the high, but not low daidzein-containing diet. Both daidzein doses resulted in slight, but not significant, decreases in ovarian and uterine weights, and mammary gland size. Histomorphological analysis of the reproductive tracts of female offspring 50 days of age exposed perinatally to daidzein did not reveal any pathology in the vaginal, uterine, ovarian, and mammary tissues. Perinatal exposure of female offspring to 250 mg daidzein/kg diet did not alter mammary gland development or ontogeny of chemically induced mammary tumors in rats treated with dimethylbenz(a)anthracene on day 50. With the low dietary daidzein dose, total equol (major metabolite) and daidzein concentrations in the blood of pregnant females, 7-day-old, 21-day-old, and 50-day-old female offspring were 529 and 303 nM, 163 and 982 nM, 1188 and 1359 nM, and 3826 and 630 nM, respectively. With the high daidzein diet, equol and daidzein concentrations in the blood of pregnant females, 7-day-old, 21-day-old, and 50-day-old female offspring were 4462 and 407 nM, 1013 and 3841 nM, 6472 and 3308 nM, and 7228 and 1430 nM, respectively. Eighty-nine to 99% of daidzein and equol were in the conjugated form. In the 21-day-old postconceptus exposed to the low and high daidzein diets, total equol and daidzein blood concentrations were 59 and 34 nM, and 358 and 132 nM, respectively. Virtually all of the daidzein in the milk of 7-day-old rats exposed to the low and high daidzein-containing diet were unconjugated, 2.6 microM and 7.3 microM, respectively. Total milk equol concentrations were 654 nM and 3.8 microM, of which 94% and 44% were unconjugated. In mammary glands of 7-day-old offspring exposed to 250 mg daidzein/kg diet, total daidzein concentrations were 407 nM (98% aglycone). We conclude that supraphysiological concentrations of daidzein administered via the diet did not cause significant toxicity to the female reproductive tract or provide a protective effect against chemically induced mammary cancer.  相似文献

More than 20% of clinically used drugs are glucuronidated by a microsomal enzyme UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT). Inhibition or induction of UGT can result in an increase or decrease in blood drug concentration. To avoid drug-drug interactions and adverse drug reactions in individuals, therefore, it is important to understand whether UGTs are involved in metabolism of drugs and drug candidates. While most of glucuronides are inactive metabolites, acyl-glucuronides that are formed from compounds with a carboxylic acid group can be highly toxic. Animals such as mice and rats are widely used to predict drug metabolism and drug-induced toxicity in humans. However, there are marked species differences in the expression and function of drug-metabolizing enzymes including UGTs. To overcome the species differences, mice in which certain drug-metabolizing enzymes are humanized have been recently developed. Humanized UGT1 (hUGT1) mice were created in 2010 by crossing Ugt1-null mice with human UGT1 transgenic mice in a C57BL/6 background. hUGT1 mice can be promising tools to predict human drug glucuronidation and acyl-glucuronide-associated toxicity. In this review article, studies of drug metabolism and toxicity in the hUGT1 mice are summarized. We further discuss research and strategic directions to advance the understanding of drug glucuronidation in humans.  相似文献

Summary The pharmacological properties of presynaptic serotonin autoreceptors were compared in slices of rat, rabbit, and guinea-pig brain cortex. The slices were preincubated with 3H-serotonin and then superfused with medium containing fluvoxamine 3 mol/l and stimulated four times by trains of four pulses delivered at 100 Hz. Cumulative concentration-response curves were determined and used for the calculation of agonist EC50 values and maximal effects and antagonist K B values.Unlabelled serotonin itself and the serotonin receptor agonists 5-carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT), 5-methoxy-3-(1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridinyl)-1H-indole (RU 24969) and (±)-8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) reduced the stimulation-evoked overflow of tritium with a rank order of potency 5-CT = RU 24969 > serotonin > 8-OH-DPAT in the rat and 5-CT > serotonin > RU 24969 > 8-OH-DPAT in the rabbit and guinea-pig. Ipsapirone caused no change. Metitepine and metergoline antagonized the effect of 5-CT; the K B values were lower in the rabbit and guinea-pig than in the rat. Yohimbine at up to 1 mol/1 did not reduce the evoked overflow of tritium and did not antagonize the inhibitory effect of 5-CT in the rat but reduced the evoked overflow in the rabbit and counteracted the effect of 5-CT in the guinea-pig. (–)-Propranolol, conversely, reduced the evoked overflow of tritium in the rat but neither reduced the evoked overflow nor antagonized the effect of 5-CT in the rabbit and guinea-pig. Isamoltane did not significantly change the effect of 5-CT in any species. In the rat, it also failed to antagonize the inhibitory effect of 8-OH-DPAT but did antagonize the effect of RU 24969. The inhibition caused by 8-OH-DPAT persisted in the presence of idazoxan but was attenuated by metitepine in all species.The experimental conditions used permit the determination of the constants of agonist and antagonist action undistorted by autoinhibition. The results confirm the view that the serotonin axons of rat brain possess 5-HT1B autoreceptors. They show by direct comparison under identical conditions that the autoreceptors in rabbit and guinea-pig are very similar to each other but differ markedly from those in the rat. The results give additional credence to previous suggestions that, in the rabbit and guinea-pig, the autoreceptors are 5-HT1D. The serotonin axons of rat brain cortex may possess 5-1D in addition to 5-HT1B autoreceptors. In many previous studies agonist potencies at, and antagonist affinities for, presynaptic serotonin autoreceptors have been underestimated due to the use of too intense stimuli to elicit serotonin release.

Liver microsomal flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMO, EC 1.14.13.8) 1 and 3 were functionally characterized in terms of expression levels and molecular catalytic capacities in human, cynomolgus monkey, rat, and minipig livers. Liver microsomal FMO3 in humans and monkeys and FMO1 and FMO3 in rats and minipigs could be determined immunochemically with commercially available anti-human FMO3 peptide antibodies or rat FMO1 peptide antibodies. With respect to FMO-dependent N-oxygenation of benzydamine and tozasertib and S-oxygenation of methimazole and sulindac sulfide activities, rat and minipig liver microsomes had high maximum velocity values (Vmax) and high catalytic efficiency (Vmax/Km, Michaelis constant) compared with those for human or monkey liver microsomes. Apparent Km values for recombinantly expressed rat FMO3-mediated N- and S-oxygenations were approximately 10–100-fold those of rat FMO1, although these enzymes had similar Vmax values. The mean catalytic efficiencies (Vmax/Km, 1.4 and 0.4 min−1 μM−1, respectively) of recombinant human and monkey FMO3 were higher than those of FMO1, whereas Vmax/Km values for rat and minipig FMO3 were low compared with those of FMO1. Minipig liver microsomal FMO1 efficiently catalyzed N- and S-oxygenation reactions; in addition, the minipig liver microsomal FMO1 concentration was higher than the levels in rats, humans, and monkeys. These results suggest that liver microsomal FMO1 could contribute to the relatively high FMO-mediated drug N- and S-oxygenation activities in rat and minipig liver microsomes and that lower expression of FMO1 in human and monkey livers could be a determinant factor for species differences in liver drug N- and S-oxygenation activities between experimental animals and humans.  相似文献

(+)-Limonene is shown to cause renal toxicity in male rats, but not in female rats and other species of animals including mice, guinea pigs, rabbits, and dogs. We have previously shown that male-specific rat CYP2C11 (but not female-specific CYP2C12) is able to convert limonenes to carveols and perillyl alcohols (M. Miyazawa, M. Shindo, and T. Shimada: Chem. Res. Toxicol., 15, 15-20, 2002). Here, we investigated whether (+)- and (-)-limonene enantiomers are differentially metabolized by P450 enzymes in liver microsomes of mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, monkeys, and humans. Limonene enantiomers were converted to respective carveols, perillyl alcohols, and carvones (oxidative metabolites of carveols) by liver microsomes of dogs, rabbits, and guinea pigs. Mice, rats, monkeys, and humans produced carveols and perilly alcohols, but not carvones. Reconstituted monooxygenase systems containing purified rabbit CYP1A2 and 2B4 and NADPH-P450 reductase were found to catalyze (+)-limonene to (+)-carveol, (+)-carvone, and (+)-perillyl alcohol, being more active with CYP2B4. When (+)-carveol and (+)-carvone were used as substrates, dogs, rabbits, and guinea pigs metabolized them to (+)-carvone and (+)-carveol, respectively. Again humans, monkeys, rats, and mice did not convert (+)-carveol to (+)-carvone, but metabolized (+)-carvone to (+)-carveol, with male rats having the highest rates. CYP2C enzymes were suggested to play major roles in metabolizing (+)-carveol to (+)-carvone and (+)-carvone to (+)-carveol by liver microsomes, since the activities were inhibited significantly by anti-human CYP2C9 antibodies in these animal species. Studies with recombinant P450 enzymes suggested that CYP2C9 and 2C19 in humans and CYP2C11 in untreated male rats were the major enzymes in metabolizing (+)-carvone. These results suggest that there are species-related differences in the metabolism of limonenes by P450 enzymes, particularly in the way from (+)-carveol to (+)-carvone. However, it remains unclear whether these differences in limonene metabolism by these animal species explain species-related differences in limonene-induced renal toxicity.  相似文献

Our previous study in rats demonstrated that the metabolic pathways of DS-8500a, a novel GPR119 agonist, include cleavage pathways: reductive cleavage of the oxadiazole ring in the liver and hydrolysis of the amide side chain. In the present study, in vivo metabolic profiling in humans and monkeys after the oral administration of two 14C-labeled compounds was performed to investigate species differences of the cleavage pathways. In monkeys, the oxadiazole ring-cleaved metabolites were mainly detected in feces, but not observed in bile, unlike in rats, suggesting that the reductive ring-opening metabolism occurs in the gastrointestinal tract. In vitro incubation with enterobacterial culture media demonstrated that the reductive cleavage of the oxadiazole ring in humans and monkeys was considerably faster than that in rats. The other cleavage metabolite (M20), produced via hydrolysis of the amide side chain, was detected as the major plasma metabolite in humans and monkeys, and its subsequent metabolite (M21) was excreted in feces, whereas M21 was not a major component in rats, indicating a notable species difference in the amide hydrolysis. In conclusion, this study comprehensively revealed the pronounced species difference of the cleavage pathways: reductive ring-opening by intestinal microflora and liver, and amide hydrolysis.  相似文献

Species differences in the formation of DA-8164 after intravenous and/or oral administration of DA-8159 to mice, rats, rabbits, dogs and humans were investigated. After intravenous administration of DA-8159, the formation of DA-8164 decreased in the order mice, rats, rabbits and dogs; the AUC(DA-8164)/AUC(DA-8159) ratios were 0.479, 0.199, 0.0452 and close to 0 (DA-8164 was below the detection limit in dog plasma), respectively. After oral administration of DA-8159, the formation of DA-8164 was considerable in mice, rats and humans, but almost negligible in dogs; the AUC (or AUC(0-t))(DA-8164)/AUC (or AUC(0-t))(DA-8159) ratios were 2.99, 2.67, 1.39 and 0.0650, respectively. The above data suggested that the formation of DA-8164 was almost negligible after both intravenous and oral administration in dogs. The species differences for the formation of DA-8164 may be due to the involvement of different CYP isozymes for each species and/or a different amount or activity of CYP isozyme if the same CYP isozyme is involved for the formation of DA-8164 for all species. The AUC (or AUC(0-t))(DA-8164)/AUC (or AUC(0-t))(DA-8159) ratios after oral administration were greater than those after intravenous administration in mice, rats and dogs, and this could be due to considerable first-pass (gastric, intestinal and/or hepatic) effects in the species as proved in rats.  相似文献
