Purpose. Some methoxyflavones (MFs) are known to inhibit the function of P-glycoprotein. The aim of this study is to characterize the reversal of multidrug resistance (MDR) by MFs. Methods. The effects of 19 MFs, including 3,5,6,7,8,3′,4′-heptamethoxyflavone, nobiletin, and tangeretin, and flavone on the uptake of [3H]vincristine into an adriamycin-resistant variant of human chronic myelogenous leukemia (K562/ADM) cells were investigated. Potentiation of vincristine-induced growth inhibition by these MFs was also tested in K562/ADM cells by means of WST-1 [2-(4-iodophenyl)-3-(4- nitrophenyl)-5-(2,4-disulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium] assay. Results. All MFs (20 μM) tested increased the uptake of [3H]vincristine. 3,5,6,7,8,3′,4′-heptamethoxyflavone, nobiletin, tangeretin, quercetagetin and quercetin pentamethylether showed especially potent effects. The increase in the uptake of [3H]vincristine was proportional to the number of methoxyl moieties. While substitution with a methoxyl moiety at the C3 position was the most influential, methoxyl substitution at both the C3′ and C5′ positions resulted in a decrease in the potentiation of uptake. Furthermore, there was a significant correlation between the potencies for increasing [3H]vincristine uptake and for growth inhibition assessed by WST-1 assay. Conclusions. MFs increased the uptake of [ 3H]vincristine into MDR cells and exhibited MDR-reversing effects. Their potencies were influenced by the number and positions of the methoxyl moieties. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.

We present a case of purpura associated with concomitant ingestion of cilostazol, aspirin and grapefruit juice. A 79-year-old man with atherosclerosis obliterans, taking cilostazol and aspirin, complained of purpura. Interview by a pharmacist revealed that he had been taking grapefruit juice for a month. His purpura disappeared upon cessation of grapefruit juice, although his medication was not altered. The most probable cause of his purpura is an increase in the blood level of cilostazol because of the inhibition of cilostazol metabolism by components of grapefruit juice. Aspirin may possibly have potentiated the risk of purpura. Grapefruit juice should be avoided in patients taking cilostazol, especially in patients being concomitantly treated with other anticoagulants. © 2007 The Authors.

Aims: To present a case of piloerection after replacing fluvoxamine maleate with milnacipran hydrochloride, and to analyse this effect based on receptor occupancy theory. Methods: A 40-year-old female with a 3-year history of panic disorder was prescribed fluvoxamine 50 mg day-1 in addition to clorazepate dipotassium and sulpiride. Depression was not improved and she complained of fatigue, lack of energy and drowsiness. These symptoms worsened within a few days of an increase in the dose of fluvoxamine to 50 mg twice daily. Since an interaction between fluvoxamine and tizanidine, prescribed by another clinic, was suspected, fluvoxamine was replaced with milnacipran 50 mg day-1. Although her drowsiness improved, she complained of piloerection throughout her body. This symptom gradually abated within a week and when the dosage of milnacipran was increased to 100 mg day-1 at 2 months, no further piloerection occurred. We calculated the changes in α1-adrenoceptor occupancy by endogenous norepinephrine during treatment with the usual doses of milnacipran, fluvoxamine and imipramine by using pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters obtained from the literature. Results: The ratios of α1-adrenoceptor occupancy by endogenous norepinephrine during the treatment with milnacipran, fluvoxamine and imipramine to that without drug were estimated to be 7.13, 1.00 and 4.12, respectively. The α1-adrenoceptor occupancy by endogenous norepinephrine was increased in a dose-dependent manner by milnacipran, whereas fluvoxamine had essentially no effect. Conclusions: The piloerection observed after the replacement of fluvoxamine with milnacipran in this patient appears to have been due to an increase in the α1-adrenoceptor occupancy by endogenous norepinephrine induced by milnacipran. © 2007 The Authors.

The plasma concentration of phenytoin (PHT) is decreased by coadministration of folinate (leucovorin; LV), a folate (FA) analogue. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of LV on the pharmacokinetics of PHT in rats in vivo and to investigate the mechanism of the interaction. LV (50 mg/kg) was administered orally to rats concomitantly given intravenous PHT (50 mg/kg) to evaluate the effect of LV on the pharmacokinetics of PHT. The effect of LV on the plasma protein binding of PHT was investigated by using plasma from rats that had received oral LV. We also examined the effects of LV on the uptake of PHT into isolated rat hepatocytes and on the metabolism of PHT in isolated rat hepatocytes and rat hepatic microsomes. LV significantly increased the systemic clearance (2-fold) and liver-to-blood partition coefficient (1.24-fold) of PHT. However, it did not affect the plasma protein binding or hepatic uptake of PHT. LV increased the metabolism of PHT in isolated rat hepatocytes, with a significant 1.41-fold increase in the maximum rate of metabolism and a decrease in the Michaelis-Menten constant. On the other hand, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF), a primary metabolite of LV and FA, significantly increased p-hydroxylation of PHT in rat hepatic microsomes, whereas LV and FA themselves had no effect. In conclusion, these results suggest that, in rats, LV, an FA analogue, decreases the plasma concentration of PHT by increasing the hepatic metabolism of PHT, and the increase in the PHT metabolism is, at least in part, attributable to 5-MTHF. © 2007 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Inc.

BACKGROUND: TS-1 is a combination preparation of tegafur, a prodrug of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), with gimeracil, a potent inhibitor of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), which mediates the inactivation of 5-FU. UFT is a combination preparation of tegafur with uracil, which also inhibits DPD, though less potently; UFT has a higher content of tegafur than that in TS-1. We aimed to develop a pharmacokinetic model to describe the kinetics of tegafur and 5-FU after the administration of TS-1 and UFT. METHODS: We developed a model incorporating the inhibition of DPD by gimeracil and uracil, and fitted the model to the observed kinetics of tegafur and 5-FU after the administration of TS-1 and UFT. Then, we simulated the plasma 5-FU profiles in patients with renal dysfunction and those after replacement of TS-1 with UFT and compared them with the observed profiles. RESULTS: The developed model could appropriately describe the plasma concentration profiles of 5-FU and tegafur after the administration of TS-1 in patients with normal and impaired renal function. CONCLUSION: The developed model may be useful to optimize the dosage regimen of TS-1 under various clinical conditions.

The aim of this study was to develop a pharmacokinetic model to describe the transplacental transfer of drugs, based on the human placental perfusion study. The maternal and fetal sides of human placentas were perfused with salicylic acid together with antipyrine, a passive diffusion marker. The drug concentration in the placental tissue was determined at the end of perfusion. A compartment model consisting of maternal space, fetal intravascular space, and placental tissue was fitted to the observed concentration profiles of salicylic acid in the maternal and fetal effluents. The developed model could adequately explain the concentration profiles of salicylic acid in the effluents with influx clearances from maternal and fetal perfusates to placental tissue of 0.0407 and 0.0813 ml/min/g cotyledon and efflux rate constants from placental tissue to maternal and fetal perfusates (k2 and k3) of 0.0238 and 0.176 min-1, respectively. The kinetics of antipyrine was adequately described by assuming rapid equilibrium between fetal perfusate and placental tissue compartments. The influx plasma clearance from the maternal side (K″1) in humans was estimated by taking into account the protein binding. The K″1/k2 value of salicylic acid was 1.07 ml/g cotyledon and was larger than that of antipyrine (0.642 ml/g cotyledon). We evaluated the transplacental transfer kinetics of salicylic acid by human placental perfusion study with various perfusion protocols. Based on the data obtained, we developed a pharmacokinetic model, which should enable us to estimate the influx profile of drugs into umbilical arterial blood from the maternal plasma concentration profile.

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of macrolide antibiotics, clarithromycin, erythromycin, roxithromycin, josamycin and azithromycin, on the hepatic uptake of digoxin. The uptake of [3 H]digoxin was studied in rats in vivo, using the tissue-sampling single-injection technique, and in isolated rat hepatocytes in vitro. The uptake of [3H]digoxin into rat hepatocytes was concentration-dependent with a Michaelis constant (Km) of 445 nM. All the macrolide antibiotics inhibited the uptake of [3H]digoxin into rat hepatocytes in a concentration-dependent manner. However, clarithromycin did not affect the in vivo hepatic uptake of digoxin in rats. The in vivo permeability-surface area product of digoxin for hepatic uptake (PSinf) was estimated to be 12.5 ml/min/g liver from the present in vitro data, which is far larger than the hepatic blood flow rate (1.4 ml/ min/g liver). Macrolide antibiotics at clinically relevant concentrations inhibit digoxin uptake by rat hepatocytes in vitro, but not in vivo, probably because hepatic uptake of digoxin in rats is blood flow-limited. Clinically observed digoxin-macrolide interaction in humans could be due to macrolide inhibition of hepatic digoxin uptake, if the uptake is permeation-limited.

Aims: To assess the mechanistic relationship between doxazosin (α1-receptor antagonist) and receptor occupancy and a measure of pharmacological effect (Qmax, the maximum urinary flow rate) and to compare the mean receptor occupancy ratio at clinical doses of doxazosin, tamsulosin, terazosin and prazosin in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods: A ternary complex model, which described the mechanism of α1-receptor antagonists, was fitted to the pharmacological effects and receptor occupancy ratio data for doxazosin (standard tablet). In addition, mean receptor occupancy was calculated for other α1- receptor antagonists and the optimal receptor occupancy was evaluated. The clinical pharmacological effects of the controlled release formulation of doxazosin (doxazosin GITS) were estimated based on the receptor occupancy. Results: The mechanistic based model was able to describe the pharmacological effects of doxazosin. Regardless of the plasma concentrations or clinical dose of each drug, the results suggest that receptor occupancy is useful to assess quantitatively and compare the pharmacological effects of drugs with similar mechanisms of action. The clinical dosage for doxazosin GITS was estimated to be at least 8 mg and the stable pharmacological effect is expected based on the estimated receptor occupancy. Conclusions: A model for Qmax improvement in BPH based on the receptor occupancy theory was able to describe the clinical effects of the α1-receptor antagonists. Receptor occupancy is a useful index for predicting the clinical effects of α1-receptor antagonists. © 2006 The Authors.

Objective: New quinolones (NQs) are wily used to treat various infections. However, concomitant oral administration of metal cations may decrease absorption of NQs and consequently decrease their blood concentration and pharmacological effect. A convenient approach to avoid this interaction is to separate the dosages by a certain interval. In this study, we aimed to develop a novel pharmacokinetic model to describe NQs-metal cation interactions in order to estimate the optimal dosing interval. Methods: Plasma concentration-time profiles of NQs after administration without or with metal cations at various dosing intervals were collected from the literature and analyzed with a pharmacokinetic model incorporating the formation ofNQs-metal cations complex. The model was fitted to the reported time profiles of ciprofloxacin (CPFX) plasma concentration after concomitant administration with aluminum hydroxide/ magnesium hydroxide antacid (Al/Mg antacid; Maalox, Maalox70) at various dosing intervals to obtain the pharmacokinetic parameters of CPFX. Model analysis was also carried out for gatifloxacin (GFLX) and norfloxacin (NFLX). Results: The developed model could adequately explain the interactions in all the combinations investigated. The model predicted, in the cases of usual doses of CPFX with Maalox, GFLX with Maalox70 and NFLX with sucralfate, that the NQ should be administered 4.5, 4.5 and 3.5 hours after, or 1, 1 and 0.5 hours before the administration of metal cations, respectively, to ensure 90% of control absorption. Conclusions: The developed model can adequately describe the extent of interaction between NQs and metal cations, and should be clinically useful to design dosage regimens to circumvent the interaction. © 2007 Dustri-Verlag Dr. K.

Human organic anion transporter 4 (OAT4) is the only member of the OAT family that is expressed in the placenta and also expressed in kidney. Although OAT4 has been shown to transport certain organic anions as well as other members of the OAT family, fewer numbers of substrates have been identified for OAT4 compared with OAT1 and OAT3, suggesting that the substrate specificity of OAT4 is greater than other OAT members. However, the substrate specificity of OAT4 remains to be investigated in detail. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of various drugs on the OAT4-mediated transport of estrone-3-sulfate, a typical substrate of OAT4, by using human embryonic kidney cells stably transfected with OAT4 (HEK-OAT4). HEK-OAT4 cells exhibited concentration- dependent uptake of estrone-3-sulfate, with a Km value of 20.9±3.53 μM. Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and probenecid potently inhibited estrone-3-sulfate uptake. We also searched for the potential inhibitors of OAT4 and identified candesartan, candesartan cilexetil, losartan, losartan carboxyl (EXP3174) and valsartan as inhibitors of OAT4, with K i values of 88.9, 135.2, 24.8, 13.8 and 19.6 μM, respectively. The above angiotensin II receptor antagonists and leukotriene receptor antagonists share a common structural feature, that is the tetrazole group. Although pranlukast is devoid of anionic motifs other than the tetrazole group, it potently inhibited the OAT4-mediated uptake of estrone-3-sulfate, indicating that a tetrazole group may be one important structural feature in substrate recognition by OAT4. © 2006 The Authors.

The aim of this study was to verify an approach for calculating pharmacokinetic parameters suitable for adjusting dosage regimens in patients with renal dysfunction. We carried out a retrospective analysis of the pharmacokinetic profiles of 12 new quinolone antibiotics and 11 angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) in patients with normal and impaired renal function to obtain the renal excretion ratio (Rrenal) of each drug. We demonstrated that the pharmacokinetics of each drug in a patient with renal dysfunction can be adequately estimated using the Rrenal value of each drug together with the creatinine clearance as an index of the individual's renal function. Using the Rrenal value obtained, we could successfully simulate pharmacokinetic profiles of the drugs in publications other than that used to obtain the Rrenal values. On the other hand, age-related changes in the pharmacokinetics of new quinolone antibiotics are not always adequately predicted using the Rrenal value compared to using creatinine clearance alone as an index, and the reasons for this are not fully understood. These results demonstrate that dosage regimens of quinolone antibiotics and ACEIs in patients with renal dysfunction can be adequately optimized using the Rrenal value for each drug using the present approach. © 2006 Dustri-Verlag Dr. K.
