چکیده

The major metabolic pathway of quinine in the human has been shown to be 3-hydroxylation mediated mainly by human cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4. In this extended in vitro study, quinine 3-hydroxylation was further investigated using microsomes from mouse, rat, dog and human livers and was compared among them in terms of the in vitro enzyme-kinetic parameters and quinine-drug interaction screenings. In all species, 3-hydroxyquinine was the principal metabolite of quinine. There was intra- and interspecies variability among all the kinetic parameters, and dogs exhibited a closer resemblance to humans in terms of the mean kinetic data. Ketoconazole and troleandomycin inhibited the 3-hydroxylation of quinine in all species. Both alpha-naphthoflavone and diazepam showed an interspecies difference in quinine 3-hydroxylation: a trend toward an activation in dog and human, and a significant inhibition in mouse and rat, liver microsomes. Antisera raised against rat CYP3A2 strongly inhibited quinine 3-hydroxylation by about 96, 84 and 92% with mouse, rat and dog liver microsomes, respectively, but neither anti-rat 2C11 and 2E1 antisera did so with rat liver microsomes. Primaquine, doxycycline and tetracycline substantially inhibited the formation of 3-hydroxyquinine in rat, dog and human species, but proguanil had no such effect in any species. Chloroquine inhibited quinine 3-hydroxylation with rat and dog liver microsomes but not with human liver microsomes. There was a significant correlation (r = 0.986, P < .001) between the CYP3A contents and the formation rates of 3-hydroxyquinine in eight human liver microsomal samples. It is concluded that 3-hydroxyquinine is a main metabolite of quinine and that CYP3A/Cyp3a is a principal isoform involved in this metabolic pathway in the respective (rat, dog and human/mouse) species tested. The dog and possibly the rat may be qualitatively and quantitatively suitable animal models for exploring the quinine 3-hydroxylase activity and for screening quinine-drug interactions in vitro, at certain inconsistency with the human liver microsomal data.

Comparative analysis of in vitro and in vivo pharmacokinetic parameters related to individual variability of GTS-21 in canine.

To clarify the cause of the canine individual variability in plasma concentration after oral administration of GTS-21, we evaluated in vitro the metabolism to 4-OH-GTS-21 in liver microsomes of the same individuals from in vivo pharmacokinetic study. First, we applied to the Michaelis-Menten kinetic parameters to a dispersion model, and compared hepatic availability (F(H)) and hepatic clearance...

Prediction of species differences (rats, dogs, humans) in the in vivo metabolic clearance of YM796 by the liver from in vitro data.

The bioavailability after oral administration of (S)-(-)-2,8-dimethyl-3-methylene-1-oxa-8-azaspiro [4,5] decane-L-tartarate monohydrate (YM796), which is being developed as an antidementia drug, at a dose of 1 mg/kg was very low (3.4%) in rats, but considerably higher (16.1%) in dogs. The oral clearances (CLoral, Dose/AUCoral) in rats and dogs were, respectively, 300 and 18 times more than that...

Pharmacokinetics of mirodenafil, a new erectogenic, and its metabolite, SK3541, in rats: involvement of CYP1A1/2, 2B1/2, 2D subfamily, and 3A1/2 for the metabolism of both mirodenafil and SK3541.

PURPOSE This study was performed to find which types of hepatic CYP isoforms are responsible for the metabolism of mirodenafil (a new erectogenic) and one of its metabolite, SK3541, using various hepatic CYP inducers and inhibitors in rats. METHODS Mirodenafil at a dose of 20 mg/kg was administered intravenously to control rats and rats pretreated with various CYP inducers and inhibitors. The...

CP-199,331 is a potent antagonist of the cysteinyl leukotriene-1 (LT(1)) receptor, targeted for the treatment of asthma. The pharmacokinetic/metabolism properties of CP-199,331 were studied in rats and compared with those in human liver microsomes/hepatocytes. In vitro biotransformation of CP-199,331 in rat and human hepatocytes was similar, consisting primarily of CP-199,331 O-demethylation. M...
