Pharmacokinetics and distribution over the blood brain barrier of two acyclic guanosine analogs in rats, studied by microdialysis.

چکیده
The free extracellular concentrations of acyclovir and (R)-9-[4-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)butyl]guanine (H2G) in the blood and in brain tissue of rats were measured in microdialysis samples by high-pressure liquid chromatography with UV detection. The half-life of acyclovir in blood was 2 h, while that of H2G was 28 min. The concentration attained in the brain compared with the concentration in blood was slightly lower for H2G than for acyclovir. The results show that the pharmacokinetic profiles of acyclic nucleosides may vary as a consequence of the structure of the acyclic chain corresponding to the sugar moiety.

Glutathione PEGylated liposomes: pharmacokinetics and delivery of cargo across the blood–brain barrier in rats
Partly due to poor blood-brain barrier drug penetration the treatment options for many brain diseases are limited. To safely enhance drug delivery to the brain, glutathione PEGylated liposomes (G-Technology®) were developed. In this study, in rats, we compared the pharmacokinetics and organ distribution of GSH-PEG liposomes using an autoquenched fluorescent tracer after intraperitoneal administ...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of BPA in Gliomas with Ultrasound Induced Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption as Measured by Microdialysis
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) can be transiently disrupted by focused ultrasound (FUS) in the presence of microbubbles for targeted drug delivery. Previous studies have illustrated the pharmacokinetics of drug delivery across the BBB after sonication using indirect visualization techniques. In this study, we investigated the in vivo extracellular kinetics of boronophenylalanine-fructose (BPA-f)...
متن کاملRelationship between dietary virgin Olive oil on brain Cholesterol, Cholesteryl ester and Triglyceride levels and Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) permeability in a rat stroke model
Introduction: Recent studies suggest that dietary virgin olive oil (VOO) reduces hypoxia-re oxygenation injury in rat brain. We have attempted to determine the effect of dietary virgin olive oil on brain lipidomics and its relationship with brain edema in a rat stroke model. Methods: Five groups, each consisting of 6 male Wistar rats, were studied. The first and second groups (control and s...
متن کاملIntensification of brain injury and blood-brain barrier permeability by short-term hypertension in experimental model of brain ischemia/reperfusion
Introduction: Arterial hypertension is one of the causes of stroke, and as one of the vasculotoxic conditions intensifies ischemic stroke complications. The aim of the present study was to analyze the effects of short-term cerebral hypertension on ischemia/reperfusion injury and pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Methods: The experiments were performed on three groups of rats (N=36) Sham, cont...

The N-substituted 3alpha-[bis(4'-fluorophenyl)methoxy]tropanes (AHN 2-003, AHN 1-055, AHN 2-005, and JHW 007) bind with high affinity to the dopamine transporter and inhibit dopamine uptake more potently than cocaine, but they demonstrate behavioral profiles in animal models of psychostimulant abuse that are unlike that of cocaine. The objective of this study was to characterize the in vitro pe...
