多孔淀粉负载青蒿素微球的溶出、生物利用度和组织分布研究

探讨多孔淀粉负载青蒿素微球(ART-PS)在体外溶出实验中,相比于青蒿素原药的溶出效果以及在大鼠体内的生物利用度和组织分布规律。在体外溶出实验中,分别在水、人工胃液和人工肠液三种溶出介质中,与青蒿素原药的溶出效果进行比较分析。在体内生物利用度实验中,通过对18只大鼠分别灌胃青蒿素原药与多孔淀粉负载青蒿素微球后,检测不同时间点的血药浓度,考察药物在大鼠体内的吸收和代谢差异。在组织分布规律的研究中,对98只大鼠分别灌胃多孔淀粉负载青蒿素微球和青蒿素原药,在不同时间点检测大鼠心、肝、脾、肺、肾、脑,共6个组织器官中的药物浓度。多孔淀粉负载青蒿素微球的体外溶出率在水、人工胃液、人工肠液中分别是青蒿素原药的4.04、3.59和3.82倍。多孔淀粉负载青蒿素微球在大鼠体内的血药浓度明显高于青蒿素原药,生物利用度提高为青蒿素原药的2.90倍。在组织分布的结果中,多孔淀粉负载青蒿素微球和青蒿素原药都主要分布在心脏和肝脏中,其中多孔淀粉负载青蒿素微球在不同时间各个组织中的相应含量都比原药高。多孔淀粉负载青蒿素微球相比于青蒿素原药,在体外的溶出效果更好,在体内的吸收释放效果更佳,在各组织器官中的药物含量明显高于原药,为解决青蒿素因难溶于水而在实际应用中受限提供了重要的理论依据。

提高辅酶Q_(10)口服生物利用度的方法与思考

难溶性药物口服生物利用度较低一直困扰着该类药物的发展。尽管随着制剂技术及辅料的不断开发与发展,使得此问题有一定的改善,但仍然达不到人们预期的目标。近几年,药物纳米化成为国内外提高生物利用度的热门方法,虽然该方法存在着一定的优势,同时也存在一些问题。另一种提高口服生物利用度的主流方法为使用生物粘附材料,增加制剂在生物体内的粘附性。本文以辅酶Q10为代表药物,阐述了药物纳米化与增加生物粘附性两种方法结合,提高其口服生物利用度,为解决其它相同类型药物的问题提供了新思路。     

灯盏甲素在正常和脑缺血再灌注损伤大鼠体内的药代动力学研究

建立准确、灵敏的超高效液相色谱-串联质谱(UPLC-MS)法,研究灯盏甲素在正常和脑缺血再灌注损伤(MCAO)大鼠体内的药代动力学。采用改良Zea longa方法制作MCAO模型,正常和模型大鼠灌服灯盏细辛提取物后,UPLC-MS法测定灯盏甲素的血药浓度,通过DAS2.0软件拟合出药动学参数,SPSS11.5统计学软件对结果进行统计分析,比较灯盏甲素在正常和MCAO大鼠体内的药代动力学差异。与正常大鼠的药动学特征相比,灯盏甲素在MCAO大鼠血浆中的药时曲线下面积(AUC)、达峰浓度(Cmax)均明显增大,清除率(ClZ/F)、表观分布容积(VZ/F)和平均滞留时间(MRT)减小,其血药浓度-时间曲线存在明显的双峰。表明灯盏甲素在MCAO大鼠体内较正常大鼠体内生物利用度显著提高,反应了该药用于临床治疗脑缺血损伤疾病的合理性。造成这种差异吸收的原因可能是脑缺血再灌注损伤机体的膜通透性增强使药物跨膜转运加快,也可能是毛细血管通透性增强使通过细胞旁路通道的药物转运加快。     

Design and synthesis of factor Xa inhibitors and their prodrugs

In addition to our previously reported fluoro acrylamides Xa inhibitors 2 and 3, a series of potent and novel cyclic diimide amidine compounds has been identified. In efforts to improve their oral bioavailability, replacement of the amidine group with methyl amidrazone gives compounds of moderate potency (14, IC(50)=0.028 microM). In the amidoxime prodrug approach, the amidoxime compounds show good oral bioavailability in rats and dogs. High plasma level of prodrug 26 and significant concentration of active drug 26a were obtained upon oral administration of prodrug 26 in rats.     

Enhanced bioavailability of soy isoflavones by complexation with beta-cyclodextrin in rats

In order to improve the solubility and bioavailability of a soy isoflavone extract (IFE), inclusion complexes (IFE-beta-CD) of the isoflavone extract with beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) were prepared and studied for their solubility and bioavailability. The aqueous solubility of the complexes of IFE with beta-CD (2.0 mg/ml) was about 26 times that of IFE itself (0.076 mg/ml). The same dosages of IFE and IFE-beta-CD were orally administered to SD rats (Sprague-Dawley) on an isoflavone glycoside (IFG) basis (daidzin, genistin and glycitin), and the plasma concentrations of daidzein, genistein and glycitein were measured over time to estimate the average AUC (area under the plasma concentration versus time curve) of the isoflavones. After the oral administration, the AUC values for daidzein, genistein and glycitein were 340, 11 and 28 microg x min/ml, respectively. In contrast, the respective AUC values after the administration of IFE-beta-CD were 430, 20 and 48 microg x min/ml. The bioavailability of daidzein in IFE-beta-CD was increased to 126% by the formation of inclusion complexes with beta-CD, compared with that in IFE. Furthermore, the bioavailability of genistein and glycitein in IFE-beta-CD formulation was significantly higher by up to 180% and 170%, respectively, compared with that of IFE p=0.008 and p=0.028, respectively). These results show that the absorption of IFE could be improved by the complexation of IFE with beta-CD (IFE-beta-CD).     

Pharmacokinetic profile of (+/-)-gossypol in male Sprague-Dawley rats following single intravenous and oral and subchronic oral administration

The pharmacokinetic profile of (+/-)-gossypol was determined in male Sprague-Dawley rats following a single intravenous or oral 10 mg/kg dose and after receiving a daily oral 10 mg/kg dose for 14 days. The intravenous plasma (+/-)-gossypol level data were fitted with a three-compartment, open-model system. The apparent half-life of elimination of (+/-)-gossypol following intravenous administration was 11.44 hr, corresponding to an elimination rate constant of 0.05 hr-1. The total plasma clearance (Cl), volume of distribution (Vd), and AUCplasma following a single intravenous administration were 0.16 liter/hr/kg, 0.05 liter/kg, and 63.09 mg.hr/liter, respectively. The bioavailability of a single oral dose of (+/-)-gossypol in rats was 60%. The change in plasma (+/-)-gossypol concentration after a single or after multiple doses showed a biphasic pattern. A single oral dose of (+/-)-gossypol, however, was eliminated five times faster than the daily administered chemical. Thus, a single oral dose of (+/-)-gossypol was eliminated at a rate constant of 0.01 hr-1, corresponding to half-life of 64.76 hr. Subchronic oral administration of (+/-)-gossypol showed an apparent half-life of 101.91 hr-1, corresponding to a rate constant of 0.007 hr-1. The results indicate that multiple oral dosing of (+/-)-gossypol resulted in its longer retention in body tissue than a single oral dose. This study suggests that pharmacokinetics of (+/-)-gossypol may play, at least in part, a role in the reproductive toxicity of subchronic but not single oral dosing.     

Absorption and enterohepatic circulation of baicalin in rats

Pharmacokinetics of baicalin, in form of its parent drug (BG) and conjugated metabolites (BGM), were studied following intravenous and oral administration of baicalin to intact rats. The enterohepatic circulation of BG and BGM was also assessed in a linked-rat model. Multiple plasma and urine samples were collected, and concentrations of BG and BGM were determined using a liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method. The concentration of BGM was assayed in the form of baicalein after treatment with beta-glucuronidase/sulfatase. After i.v. administration, plasma concentration of BG rapidly declined with the elimination half-life (T1/2) of 0.1 till 4 h post dose, followed by slight increase from 4-8 h in plasma concentrations after drug administration. These plasma concentrations resulted in a significant prolongation of the terminal elimination half-life of BG (T1/2 TER, 9.7 h). BG also displayed slight increase in plasma concentrations (12-24 h) after oral administration, with T1/2 TER of 12.1 h. Based on the AUC of BG and BGM, the absolute bioavailability of baicalin was 2.2+/-0.2% and 27.8+/-5.6%, respectively. The exposure of baicalin to the systemic circulation was approximately 118-fold lower than that of BGM after oral administration (AUC0-t, 4.43 versus 523.97 nmol.h/mL). The high extent of glucuronidation suggested the possible presence of enterohepatic circulation, which was confirmed in the linked-rat model since plasma concentrations of BG and BGM were observed in bile-recipient rats at 4 to 36 h. The extent of enterohepatic circulation after intravenous administration of baicalin was 4.8% and 13.3% for BG and BGM, respectively. It was determined that 18.7% and 19.3% of the administered baicalin were subjected to enterohepatic circulation for BG and BGM, respectively, after oral administration. These results confirm that BG undergoes extensive first-pass glucuronidation and that enterohepatic circulation contributes significantly to the exposure of BG and BGM in rats.     

Pharmacokinetics of ipriflavone, an isoflavone derivative, after intravenous and oral administration to rats hepatic and intestinal first-pass effects

Pharmacokinetic parameters of ipriflavone were evaluated after intravenous administration of spray-dried ipriflavone with polyvinylpyrrolidone, SIP (5, 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg as ipriflavone) and oral administration of SIP (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg as ipriflavone) to rats. The hepatic, gastric, and intestinal first-pass effects of ipriflavone were also measured after intravenous, intraportal, intraduodenal, and oral administration of SIP (20 or 50 mg/kg as ipriflavone) to rats. After intravenous and oral administration, the pharmacokinetic parameters of ipriflavone were dose-independent. The extent of absolute oral bioavailability (F) was also independent of oral doses; the mean F value was approximately 24%. Considering the amount of unchanged ipriflavone recovered from 24-hr gastrointestinal tract (the mean value was approximately 12%), the low F values could be due to the hepatic, gastric, and/or intestinal first-pass effects. Based on total body clearance (CL) data of ipriflavone after intravenous administration, the first-pass effect in the heart and lung could be almost negligible, if any, in rats. Approximately 30% of ipriflavone absorbed into the portal vein was eliminated by liver (hepatic first-pass effect) based on intravenous and intraportal administration of SIP. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to time infinity (AUC) values after oral administration and intraduodenal instillation of SIP, 50 mg/kg as ipriflavone, were not significantly different, but the values were significantly smaller (129 and 116 microg ml/min) than that after intraportal administration of SIP, 20 mg/kg as ipriflavone (513 microg ml/min based on 50 mg/kg), indicating that gastric first-pass effect of ipriflavone was negligible, but intestinal first-pass effect was considerable in rats. Therefore, the low F value of ipriflavone after oral administration to rats was mainly due to intestinal first-pass effect. The hepatic first-pass effect and incomplete absorption of ipriflavone from rat gastrointestinal tract could also contributed to the low F in rats.     

The effects of PGF1α, PGE2 and 16,16 dimethyl PGE2 on gastric emptying and small intestinal transit in rat

Prostaglandins are well known for their ability to stimulate contraction in gastrointestinal smooth muscle, yet very little information is available on how their activity affects propulsion . Thus, studies were undertaken to determine the effect of various prostaglandins on qastric emptying (GE) and small intestinal transit (SIT) in unanesthetized fasted rats. Rats were treated with intravenous, subcutaneous, or oral PGF_2α, PGE₂, or 16,16 dimethyl PGE₂ at various doses, followed 1 (intravenous), 20 (subcutaneous) or 10 (oral) mins later by intragastric ⁵¹Cr oxide in black ink. Forty-five mins later, rats were sacrificed by CO₂ asphyxiation, the pylorus clamped, and the gut excised. SIT was expressed as the percent of intestinal length traveled by the most distal portion of ink. GE was expressed as the percent of the ⁵¹Cr emptied into the intestines. If GE was affected by prostaglandin treatment, the experiments were repeated with rats pre-implanted with duodenal cannula. This preparation allowed the visual transit marker to be deposited directly into the dueodenum, thus avoiding acceleration or delay of SIT caused by fluctuations in GE. The results of these studies show that: (1) intravenous 16,16 dimethyl PGE₂ (5–50 μg/kg), but not PGF_2α or PGE₂, accelerates GE and delays SIT; (2) oral prostaglandin administration increases SIT; (3) oral 16,16 dimethyl PGE₂ delays GE; (4) subcutaneous 16,16 dimethyl PGE₂ accelerates, has no effect upon, or delays GE depending upon dose, but accelerates SIT at all doses tested; and (5) subcutaneous PGE₂ accelerates SIT while PGF_2α does not. Thus, the effect of prostaglandins on GE and SIT depends upon the dosage and route of administration as well as type of prostaglandin used.     

Quantitative determination of the anticancer agent tubeimoside I in rat plasma by liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry

Tubeimoside I is an important component isolated from Bolbostemma paniculatum. Tubeimoside I has been demonstrated to possess many pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and antitumor-promoting effects. The purpose of the present study was to examine in vivo pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of tubeimoside I in rats by using a liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry quantitative detection method (LC/MS). The plasma samples were deproteinated, evaporated and reconstituted in 100 microl methanol prior to analysis. The separation was performed by Waters Symmetry C18 reversed-phase column (3.5 microm, 150 mm x 2.1mm, Waters Inc., USA) and a SB-C18 guard column (5 microm, 20 mm x 4.0mm). The mobile phase was a mixture of acetonitrile and water containing 5 microM NaAc (60:40, v/v). The method was validated within the concentration range 20-5000 ng/ml, and the calibration curves were linear with correlation coefficients >0.999. The lowest limit of quantitation (LLOQ) for tubeimoside I was 20 ng/ml in 0.1 ml rat plasma. The intra-assay accuracy and precision ranged from 92.4 to 104.9% and from 5.8 to 10.5%, respectively, while inter-assay accuracy and precision ranged from 94.2 to 95.0% and from 5.1 to 8.8%, respectively. The method was further applied to assess pharmacokinetics and oral bioavailability of tubeimoside I after intravenous and oral administration to rats. The oral bioavailability of tubeimoside I is only 0.23%, which indicates that tubeimoside I has poor absorption or undergoes acid-induced degradation. Practical utility of this new LC/MS method was confirmed in pilot pharmacokinetic studies in rats following both intravenous and oral administration.     

Orally active factor Xa inhibitors: investigation of a novel series of 3-amidinophenylsulfonamide derivatives using an amidoxime prodrug strategy

A series of novel and potent 3-amidinophenylsulfonamide derivatives of factor Xa inhibitors were designed and synthesized using an amidoxime prodrug strategy. We focused on systemic clearance of parent compounds in rats, and performed in vivo pharmacokinetic screening. Incorporation of a carboxymethoxy group markedly improved systemic clearance (compound 43), and the related amidoxime 44 showed sufficient prodrug conversion. Compound 45, the double prodrug of 43, exhibited practicable bioavailability after oral administration in rats. Among the various compounds under investigation, KFA-1982 was selected for clinical development.     

Pharmacokinetics of methyl parathion: a comparison following single intravenous,oral or dermal administration

Assessment of the risks posed by the residential use of methyl parathion requires an understanding of its pharmacokinetics after different routes of exposure. Thus, studies were performed using adult female rats to define the pharmacokinetic parameters for methyl parathion after intravenous injection and to apply the described model to an examination of its pharmacokinetics after single oral or dermal exposure. The pharmacokinetics of methyl parathion after intravenous administration (1.5 mg/kg) were best described by a three-compartment model; the apparent volume of the central compartment was 1.45 liters/kg, clearance was 1.85 liters/h/kg and the terminal half-life was 6.6 h with an elimination constant of 0.50 h(-1). The apparent oral absorption coefficient for methyl parathion (1.5 mg/kg) was 1.24 h(-1), and its oral bioavailability was approximately 20%. The latter likely includes a significant first pass effect. Concentrations of methyl parathion increased during the initial 10-60 min and then declined during the next 15-36 h. After dermal administration (6.25-25 mg/kg), methyl parathion concentrations peaked within 12-26 h and then declined dose dependently. The apparent dermal absorption coefficient was approximately 0.41 h(-1), and only two pharmacokinetic compartments could be distinguished. In conclusion, the pharmacokinetics of methyl parathion are complex and route dependent. Also, dermal exposure, because of sustained methyl parathion concentrations, may pose the greatest risk.
