چکیده
Delamanid, a new anti-tuberculosis drug, is metabolized to M1, a unique metabolite formed by cleavage of the 6-nitro-2,3dihydroimidazo[2,1-b] oxazole moiety, in plasma albumin in vitro. The metabolic activities in dogs and humans are higher than those in rodents. In this study, we characterized the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of delamanid in animals and humans. Eight metabolites (M1–M8) produced by cleavage of the imidazooxazole moiety of delamanid were identified in the plasma after repeated oral administration by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis. Delamanid was initially catalyzed to M1 and subsequently metabolized by three separate pathways, which suggested that M1 is a crucial starting point. The major pathway in humans was hydroxylation of the oxazole moiety of M1 to form M2 and then successive oxidation to the ketone form (M3) mainly by CYP3A4. M1 had the highest exposure among the eight metabolites after repeated oral dosing in humans, which indicated that M1 was the major metabolite. The overall metabolism of delamanid was qualitatively similar across nonclinical species and humans but was quantitatively different among the species. After repeated administration, the metabolites had much higher concentrations in dogs and humans than in rodents. The in vitro metabolic activity of albumin on delamanid probably caused the species differences observed. We determined that albumin metabolism is a key component of the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of delamanid. Nonhepatic formation of M1 and multiple separate pathways for metabolism of M1 suggest that clinically significant drug–drug interactions with delamanid and

Comparison of the Dynamic Thin Shell and Quasi-cylindrical Models for Blown Film Extrusion
Most models of blown film extrusion are based on thin shell theory, which was first applied to these processes by Pearson and Petrie. There has been some contention in the literature as to the suitability of the thin shell model. More recently, Liu and coworkers presented an alternative quasi-cylindrical model that neglects longitudinal curvature but was reported to agree more closely with expe...

متن کاملIschemia in Exercising Dogs
To determine whether ischemia in the exercising dog is associated with preservation of subepicardial thickening relative to subendocardial thickening, 10 dogs were chronically instrumented with circumflex artery flow probes, hydraulic occluders, and pairs of ultrasonic microcrystals for determination of wall thickness in the circumflex artery distribution. One pair of crystals spanned the entir...
