Biotransformation of deramciclane in primary hepatocytes of rat, mouse, rabbit, dog, and human.

چکیده
The metabolic fate of deramciclane [(1R,2S,4R)-(-)-2-phenyl-2-(2'-dimethylamino-ethoxy)-1,7,7-trimethyl-bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane], a new anxiolytic drug candidate, has been determined in rat, mouse, rabbit, dog, and human hepatocytes. Rat and rabbit cells were the most active, whereas the rate of metabolism was quite slow in human hepatocytes. During biotransformation, deramciclane underwent side chain modification and oxidation at several positions of the molecule. The side chain modification led to the formation of N-desmethyl deramciclane and phenylborneol. The oxidation of deramciclane resulted in several hydroxy-, carboxy-, and N-oxide derivatives. The hydroxylation took place at primary or secondary carbons of the camphor ring as well as at the side chain; furthermore, dihydroxylated derivatives were also found. The side chain-modified metabolites were also oxidized to hydroxy- or carboxy-derivatives. Conjugation of phase I metabolites, as a route of elimination, was also observed in rat, rabbit, and dog hepatocytes. Although there were some species differences in biotransformation of deramciclane, it was concluded that phase I metabolism in human liver cells seemed to be similar to the metabolism in the hepatocytes isolated from rat. With careful approach, the rat model may be considered to be predictive for human metabolism of deramciclane.

Role of CYP2E1 in deramciclane metabolism.
The aim of our study was to identify the form(s) of cytochrome P450 responsible for the metabolism of deramciclane, a new anxiolytic drug candidate. The main routes of biotransformation in hepatic microsomes were side chain modification (N-demethylation or total side chain cleavage) and hydroxylation at several points of the molecule. Although several cytochrome P450 forms were involved in the ...
متن کاملComparative metabolism of geranyl nitrile and citronellyl nitrile in mouse, rat, and human hepatocytes.
Geranyl nitrile (GN) and citronellyl nitrile (CN) are fragrance components used in consumer and personal care products. Differences in the clastogenicity of these two terpenes are postulated to result from differential biotransformation, presumably involving the conjugated nitrile moiety. The metabolic clearance and biotransformation of GN and CN were compared in primary hepatocytes from mice, ...
متن کاملComparison of the Cytotoxic Effects of Nanosilver and Ancient Iranian and Pakistani Silver Kushtas on Primary Rat Hepatocytes and Human Cancer Cell Lines
Tumor growth is characterized by uncontrolled cell division. For centuries, silver kushta powder, composed of nano and submicro silver particles, has been used in traditional Iranian and Pakistani medicine for the treatment of melanoma and breast cancer. We have found that these nanocomposite particles are similar to silver nanoparticles (AgNps) in size and shape and that there are so differenc...
متن کاملAssessing the metabolic competence of sandwich-cultured mouse primary hepatocytes.
Primary human and rat hepatocyte cultures are well established in vitro systems used in toxicological studies. However, whereas transgenic mouse models provide an opportunity for studying mechanisms of toxicity, mouse primary hepatocyte cultures are less well described. The potential usefulness of a mouse hepatocyte-based in vitro model was assessed in this study by investigating time-dependent...
