First-pass hydrolysis of a propranolol ester derivative in rat small intestine.

چکیده
To evaluate the first-pass hydrolysis of O-isovaleryl-propranolol (isovaleryl-PL), which was used as a model ester-compound, rat intestinal jejunum and blood vessels were perfused simultaneously. The membrane permeability of isovaleryl-PL was greater than that of PL because it was more lipophilic. Isovaleryl-PL was almost completely hydrolyzed to PL and isovaleric acid (IVA) in epithelial cells at a rate limited by its uptake. Based on pH partitioning, PL and IVA were transported into both vascular (pH 7.4) and luminal sides (pH 6.5). Therefore, when isovaleryl-PL was perfused into the jejunal lumen, more than 90% permeated into the blood vessel as PL. In addition, PL appeared in the lumen at a rate 6-fold greater than that in blood vessels. When isovaleryl-PL was perfused, its disappearance (50.5+/-1.95 nmol/min) was the sum of the absorption and secretion rates of PL. In contrast, IVA was transported into blood vessels rather than the jejunal lumen. In addition, the calculated degradation clearance from in vitro hydrolysis (Km 13.7+/-1.71 microM, Vmax 29.1+/-3.81 nmol/min/mg protein) was 3.42 ml/min/10 cm jejunum, which was 24-fold greater than the observed degradation clearance (CLdeg) (0.14+/-0.02 ml/min/10 cm jejunum). These findings indicate that in addition to the liver, the intestine markedly contributes to first-pass hydrolysis.

The age-associated alteration in expression levels of carboxylesterases (CESs) can affect both intestinal and hepatic first-pass metabolism after oral administration of xenobiotic esters such as prodrugs. In this study, the age-related expression of CES isozymes and hydrolase activities were simultaneously investigated in liver, jejunum, and ileum from 8-, 46-, and 90-week-old rats. Rat liver e...
متن کامل[Hydrolysis by carboxylesterase and disposition of prodrug with ester moiety].
Prodrug is a useful approach for improving the bioavailability of therapeutic agents through increased passive transport. Carboxylesterases (CESs, EC.3.1.1.1.) that show ubiquitous expression profiles play an important role in the biotransformation of ester-containing prodrugs into their therapeutically active forms in the body. High levels of CESs are found in the liver, small intestine and lu...
متن کاملEvidence for the involvement of a pulmonary first-pass effect via carboxylesterase in the disposition of a propranolol ester derivative after intravenous administration.
The disposition kinetics of O-butyryl propranolol (butyryl-PL), a model compound containing an ester moiety, after intravenous administration was compared with that of PL in rats and beagle dogs. Rats showed only 30% conversion of butyryl-PL to PL up to 2 h after dosing, whereas dogs showed nearly complete conversion within 10 min after administration. The CL(total) of butyryl-PL in rats was 5....
متن کاملIntestinal first-pass metabolism via carboxylesterase in rat jejunum and ileum.
To determine the activity of a major intestinal esterase in the first-pass hydrolysis of O-isovaleryl-propranolol (isovaleryl-PL), a model ester compound, rat intestinal jejunum and blood vessels were perfused simultaneously after inhibition of a carboxylesterase (CES) by bis-p-nitrophenyl phosphate (BNPP). BNPP specifically inhibits approximately 90% of CES activity without influencing aminope...
