This study was to evaluate the effect of resveratrol on the pharmacokinetics of ticagrelor in rats and the metabolism of ticagrelor in human CYP3A4 and liver microsomes. Eighteen Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups: group A (control group), group B (50mg/kg resveratrol), and group C (150mg/kg resveratrol ). After 30 minutes administration of resveratrol, a single dose of ticagrelor (18mg/kg) was administered orally. The vitro experiment was performed to examine the influence of resveratrol on ticagrelor metabolism in CYP3A4*1, human, and rat liver microsomes. Serial biological samples were assayed by validated UHPLC-MS/MS methods. In vivo study, the AUC and Cmax of ticagrelor in group B and C appeared to be significantly higher than the control group, while Vz/F and CLz/F of ticagrelor in group B and C were significantly decreased. In vitro study, resveratrol exhibited an inhibitory effect on CYP3A4*1, human and rat liver microsomes. The IC50 values of resveratrol were 56.75μM,69.07μM and 14.22μM, respectively. Our results indicated that resveratrol had a inhibitory effect on the metabolism of ticagrelor in vitro and vivo. It should be paid more attention to the clinical combination of resveratrol with ticagrelor and ticagrelor plasma concentration should be monitored to avoid the occurrence of adverse reaction.

The objective of this work was to investigate the effect of orally administered silybin on the pharmacokinetics of imatinib in rats and the metabolism of imatinib in human liver microsome and rat liver microsomes. Eighteen healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: group A (control group), group B (received multiple doses of 50 mg·kg−1 silybin for 15 consecutive days), and group C (received a single dose of 50 mg·kg−1 silybin). A single dose of imatinib was administered orally 30 min after administration of silybin (50 mg·kg−1). Imatinib plasma levels were measured by UPLC-MS/MS, and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by DAS 3.0 software (Bontz Inc., Beijing, China). In addition, human and rat liver microsome were performed to determine the effects of silybin metabolism of imatinib in vitro. The multiple doses or single dose of 50 mg·kg−1 silybin significantly decreased the area under the curve (0-t) of imatinib (p < 0.01). And the half-life (t1/2) of imatinib is significantly increased (p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively). Also, silybin showed inhibitory effect on human and rat microsomes, the IC50 of silybin were 26.42 μmol·L−1 and 49.12 μmol·L−1 in human and rat liver microsomes, respectively. These results indicate that more attention should be paid to when imatinib is administrated combined with silybin.

Background: E2 (Camptothecin - 20 (S) - O- glycine - deoxycholic acid), and G2 (Camptothecin - 20 (S) - O - acetate - deoxycholic acid) are two novel bile acid-derived camptothecin analogues by introducing deoxycholic acid in 20-position of CPT(camptothecin) with greater anticancer activity and lower systematic toxicity in vivo. Objective: We aimed to investigate the metabolism of E2 and G2 by Rat Liver Microsomes (RLM). Methods: Phase Ⅰ and Phase Ⅱ metabolism of E2 and G2 in rat liver microsomes were performed respectively, and the mixed incubation of phase I and phase Ⅱ metabolism of E2 and G2 was also processed. Metabolites were identified by liquid chromatographic/mass spectrometry. Results: The results showed that phase I metabolism was the major biotransformation route for both E2 and G2. The isoenzyme involved in their metabolism had some difference. The intrinsic clearance of G2 was 174.7mL/min. mg protein, more than three times of that of E2 (51.3 mL/min . mg protein), indicating a greater metabolism stability of E2. 10 metabolites of E2 and 14 metabolites of G2 were detected, including phase I metabolites (mainly via hydroxylations and hydrolysis) and their further glucuronidation products. Conclusion: These findings suggested that E2 and G2 have similar biotransformation pathways except some difference in the hydrolysis ability of the ester bond and amino bond from the parent compounds, which may result in the diversity of their metabolism stability and responsible CYPs(Cytochrome P450 proteins).

Poziotinib is an orally active, irreversible, pan-HER tyrosine kinase inhibitor used to treat non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, and gastric cancer. Poziotinib is currently under clinical investigation, and understanding its drug-drug interactions is extremely important for its future development and clinical application. The cocktail method is most suitable for evaluating the activity of cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs). As poziotinib is partially metabolized by CYPs, cocktail probes are used to study the interaction between drugs metabolized by each CYP subtype. Midazolam, bupropion, dextromethorphan, tolbutamide, chlorzoxazone, phenacetin, and their metabolites were used to examine the effects of poziotinib on the activity of cyp1a2, 2b1, 2d1, 2c11, 2e1, and 3a1/2, respectively. The in vitro experiment was carried out by using rat liver microsomes (RLMs), whereas the in vivo experiment involved the comparison of the pharmacokinetic parameters of the probes after co-administration with poziotinib to rats to those of control rats treated with only probes. UPLC-MS/MS was used to detect the probes and their metabolites in rat plasma and rat liver microsomes. The in vitro results revealed that the half-maximal inhibitory concentration values of bupropion and tolbutamide in RLMs were 8.79 and 20.17 μM, respectively, indicating that poziotinib showed varying degrees of inhibition toward cyp2b1 and cyp2c11. Poziotinib was a competitive inhibitor of cyp2b1 and cyp2c11, with Ki values of 16.18 and 17.66 μM, respectively. No time- or concentration-dependence of inhibition by poziotinib was observed toward cyp2b1 and cyp2c11 in RLMs. Additionally, no obvious inhibitory effects were observed on the activity of cyp1a2, cyp2d1, cyp2e1, and cyp3a1/2. In vivo analysis revealed that bupropion, tolbutamide, phenacetin, and chlorzoxazone showed significantly different pharmacokinetic parameters after administration (p &lt; 0.05); there was no significant difference in the pharmacokinetic parameters of dextromethorphan and midazolam. These results show that poziotinib inhibited cyp2b1 and cyp2c11, but induced cyp1a2 and cyp2e1 in rats. Thus, poziotinib inhibited cyp2b1 and cyp2c11 activity in rats, suggesting the possibility of interactions between poziotinib and these CYP substrates and the need for caution when combining them in clinical settings.

The ability of horse chestnut extract (HCE) to induce contraction force in fibroblasts, a process with remarkable significance in skin repair, motivated us to evaluate its wound healing potential in a series of experiments. In the in vitro study of the ability of human dermal fibroblasts to form myofibroblast-like cells was evaluated at the protein level (Western blot and immunofluorescence). The in vivo study was conducted on male Sprague-Dawley rats with inflicted wounds (one open circular and one sutured incision) on their backs. Rats were topically treated with two tested HCE concentrations (0.1% and 1%) or sterile water. The control group remained untreated. The incisions were processed for wound tensile strength (TS) measurement whereas the open wounds were subjected to histological examination. On the in vitro level the HCE extract induced fibronectin-rich extracellular matrix formation, but did not induced α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) expression in dermal fibroblasts. The animal study revealed that HCE increased wound TS and improved collagen organization. In conclusion, the direct comparison of both basic wound models demonstrated that the healing was significantly increased following HCE, thus this extract may be found useful to improve healing of acute wounds. Nevertheless, the use of an experimental rat model warrants a direct extrapolation to the human clinical situation.

(-)-Linalool is the major floral scent occurring mainly in families Lamiaceae, Lauraceae and Rutaceae and is the main active compound of lavender oil. The purpose of this study was to reveal the influence of subchronic systemic treatment with (-)-linalool on the metabolic activity of CYP2A, 2B, 2C6, 2C11 and 3A in rat liver microsomes (RLM). The second aim was to reveal possible inhibitory effect of (-)-linalool on CYP2C6 in vitro. Wistar albino male rats were treated with (-)-linalool intragastrically at the doses of 40, 120, and 360 mg/kg/day for 13 days. Treatment with (-)-linalool at the dose of 360 mg/kg increased the metabolic activity of CYP2A assessed with testosterone as a probe substrate. (-)-Linalool showed weak competitive inhibition of CYP2C6 in rat liver microsomes, with IC50 of 84 μM with use of diclofenac as a probe substrate.

Background: Oxymatrine is one of the most promising alkaloids from Sophora flavescens for its excellent pharmacological effects. Objective: The aim of this research is to assess the biopharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic activities of oxymatrine, and clarify its mechanisms of absorption and metabolism. Methods: The biological characteristics of oxymatrine were systematically investigated by UHPLC-MS/MS. The mechanisms of absorption and metabolism of oxymatrine were further clarified through incubation in rat liver microsomes and transport across Caco-2 monolayer cell absorption model. Results: It was found that the absolute oral bioavailability of oxymatrine was 26.43% and the pharmacokinetic parameters Cmax, Tmax, and t1/2 were 605.5 ng/mL, 0.75 h, and 4.181 h after oral administration, indicating that oxymatrine can be absorbed quickly. The tissue distribution tests showed that oxymatrine distributed throughout all the organs, with the small intestine accumulating the highest level followed by kidney, stomach and spleen. The Papp in Caco-2 cell line absorption model was over 1 × 10-5 and PDR 1.064, t1/2 of oxymatrine in rat liver microsome in vitro was 1.042 h, indicating that oxymatrine can be absorbed easily through passive diffusion and CYP450 enzymes could be involved in its metabolism. The plasma protein binding rate of oxymatrine was 2.78 ± 0.85%. Conclusion: Oxymatrine can be absorbed into blood easily through passive diffusion, mainly distributed in the intestine, stomach, liver and spleen in vivo, and CYP450 enzymes in liver could be involved in its metabolism.
