In vitro metabolism study of edaravone in Wistar and hairless rat skin.

چکیده
We investigated the skin metabolism of edaravone as a radical scavenger in Wistar and hairless rat skin. Approximately 1 g of abdominal skin was excised from 10-week-old Wistar and hairless rats, homogenized in 10 ml saline, and centrifuged at 10000 g for 20 min. The supernatant fluid was used for the examination of edaravone metabolism in the skin, and we also used supernatant fluid that was heated at 80 degrees C. Edaravone solution (0.05 ml, 2.4 micromol/ml) was added to 0.95 ml Wistar rat and hairless rat skin homogenate supernatant fluids. In Wistar rats, the residual amount of edaravone in skin homogenate supernatant fluid at 37 degrees C after 0, 5, 10, 20 and 30 min was 61.58+/-1.65, 41.84+/-8.52, 35.54+/-8.62, 19.73+/-5.99 and 13.89+/-4.40%, respectively. In hairless rats, the residual amount of edaravone in skin homogenate supernatant fluid at 37 degrees C after 0, 5 and 10 min was 50.19+/-14.17, 6.71+/-5.82 and 0.89+/-0.80%, respectively, and edaravone was not detected after 20 min. Although it was thought that metabolic enzyme activity in skin homogenate supernatant fluid was lost following heat treatment at 80 degrees C, the residual amount of edaravone in our skin homogenate supernatant fluid decreased with time. It is suggested that edaravone metabolism in the skin is necessary for non-enzymatic reactions.

Piroxicam is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent which has an extensive use in rheumatic disorders. Since its skin penetration is still a subject for research, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dimethyl sulfoxide on percutaneous penetration of piroxicam gel formulation through skin. In this study, as a model, two types of 0.5% piroxicam new gels, so called red and gr...

Edaravone, an antioxidant and radical scavenger, showed protective effects against oxidative stress-like condition. Paraquat (PQ) is a toxic herbicide considerable evidence suggests that oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction contribute to PQ toxicity. In this study, protective effect of edaravone against PQ induced toxicity and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in A549 cells and...
