Characterization of the circulating metabolites for a new chemical entity in humans is essential for safety assessment, an understanding of their contributions to pharmacologic activities, and their potential involvement in drug-drug interactions. This review examines the abundance of metabolites relative to the total parent drug [metabolite-to-parent (M/P) ratio] from 125 drugs in relation to ...
Drug-induced QT interval prolongation is one of the most common reasons for the withdrawal of drugs from the market. In the past decade, at least nine drugs, i.e. terfenadine, astemizole, grepafloxacin, terodiline, droperidol, lidoflazine, sertindole, levomethadyl and cisapride, have been removed from the market or their use has been severely restricted because of drug-induced QT interval prolo...
The human cytochrome P450 2J2 catalyzes an epoxygenase reaction to oxidize various fatty acids including arachidonic acid. In this study, three recombinant enzyme constructs of P450 2J2 were heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli and their P450 proteins were successfully purified using a Ni(2+)-NTA affinity column. Deletion of 34 amino acid residues in N-terminus of P450 2J2 enzyme (2J2-D...
INTRODUCTION: Non-clinical evaluation of a medication's potential to induce cardiac toxicity is recommended by regulatory agencies. 4-Aminopyridine (fampridine) is a potassium channel blocker with the demonstrated ability to improve walking ability in patients with multiple sclerosis. We evaluated the in vitro effects of 4-aminopyridine on the human ether-à-go-go-related gene (hERG) channel cur...
Basophil numbers are typically elevated in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and increase during disease progression. Histamine is an essential mediator and marker of basophils and is highly up-regulated in CML. We examined the biochemical basis of histamine synthesis in CML cells. The CML-specific oncoprotein BCR/ABL was found to promote expression of histidine decarboxylase (HDC) and synthesis o...
Organ interactions resulting from drug, metabolite or xenobiotic transport between organs are key components of human metabolism that impact therapeutic action and toxic side effects. Preclinical animal testing often fails to predict adverse outcomes arising from sequential, multi-organ metabolism of drugs and xenobiotics. Human microphysiological systems (MPS) can model these interactions and ...
The goal of the present study was to examine the utility of the conscious dog model by assessing the QT-interval-prolonging potential of ten positive compounds that have been reported to induce QT interval prolongation in clinical use and seven negative compounds considered not to have such an effect. Three doses of test compounds or vehicle were administered orally to male beagle dogs (n=4), a...
Glucuronidation is a listed clearance mechanism for 1 in 10 of the top 200 prescribed drugs. The objective of this article is to encourage those studying ligand interactions with UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) to adequately consider the potential consequences of in vitro UGT inhibition in humans. Spurred on by interest in developing potent and selective inhibitors for improved confidence a...
A novel approach to the quantitative determination of xenobiotics in whole blood samples without sample preparation or chromatography is described. This method is based on direct analysis of microlitre volumes of blood which are spotted onto specialized paper cards and dried, with the resulting dried blood spots (DBS) analyzed directly via desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) mass spectrom...
BACKGROUND Single-patient randomized clinical trials (RCTs) can be utilized to maintain methodologic precision in the analysis of treatment effect in individual patients. We describe the results of a single-patient RCT in a patient with atopic dermatitis and review practical considerations regarding the use of antihistamines. METHODS Using double-blind, crossover techniques, the patient was r...
