Multiplicity of Hepatic Excretory Mechanisms for Organic Anions

Multiplicity of Hepatic Excretory Mechanisms for Organic Anions

Previous studies based upon competition between different organic anions for biliary excretion in vivo have suggested that all organic anions share a common hepatic secretory mechanism. Corriedale sheep with an inherited defect in organic anion excretion by the liver were used to study this problem directly without the need for competition studies, the results of which are difficult to analyze....

The impact of hepatic uptake on the pharmacokinetics of organic anions.

The disposition of seven marketed and two AstraZeneca acid (organic anion) compounds with a range of volume of distribution at steady state (V(ss)) and clearance have been profiled in rat and dog. Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters along with liver and muscle tissue levels were collected, and their contributions to total V(ss) were calculated. The physiologically based prediction of V(ss) correlat...

Biliary secretion in elasmobranchs. II. Hepatic uptake and biliary excretion of organic anions.

[35S]Bromosulfophthalein ([35C]BSP), [14C]sodium taurocholate ([14C]NaTC), AND 10 MG OF UNLABELED BSP.and of phenol-3,6-dibromophthalein disulfonate (DBSP) per kilogram body weight were injected in the caudal artery of free-swimming dogfish sharks (Squalus acanthias) and small skates (Raja erinacea). Twenty-four hours later, 85.8 +/- 15.7% of [35S]BSP was recovered in bile and liver in dogfish ...

Ultraviolet Photoelectron Spectroscopy of Organic Anions

Entry of organic acid anions into roots.

Entry of formate, acetate, succinate, and salts of several other organic acids into barley roots takes place chiefly as ions from solutions at pH 5 to 7. The results are in accord with entry of the organic acid predominantly at pH 5 as ions through hydrophylic regions of the limiting membranes rather than by distribution of the undissociated acid to lipid-rich regions, as has previously been he...
