Oxibendazole (OBZ) was administered to eight horses at an oral dose of 10 mg kg(-1) bodyweight each. Parent OBZ could only be detected in plasma at the 0.5 and 1.0 hours post administration sampling times and the mean maximum plasma concentration was 0.008 microg ml(-1). Parent OBZ was detected in faeces between 12 and 72 hours after administration and the highest dry faecal concentration was detected at 24 hours. An unidentified metabolite was detected in plasma between 0.5 and 72 hours. The unidentified metabolite in the plasma of treated horses corresponded to the second eluted metabolite in the in vitro study. Metabolism of OBZ to its metabolite in vitro was significantly inhibited by co-incubation with the cytochrome P450 inhibitor piperonyl butoxide. These results indicated that first-pass metabolism decreases OBZ bioavailability in horses. The in vitro metabolism of OBZ was significantly inhibited by piperonyl butoxide and this could be utilised to extend the exposure of nematodes to the parent molecule.  相似文献

Dantrolene is a skeletal muscle relaxant used commonly in performance horses to prevent exertional rhabdomyolysis. The goal of the study reported here was to begin to characterize cytochrome P450-mediated metabolism of dantrolene in the horse and describe the pharmacokinetics of the compound, formulated as a capsule or a compounded paste formulation, following oral administration. Dantrolene is rapidly metabolized to 5-hydroxydantrolene both in vivo and in vitro. Preliminary work with equine liver microsomes suggest that two enzymes are responsible for the metabolism of dantrolene, as evidenced by two distinct K(m) values, one at high and one at low substrate concentrations. For the pharmacokinetic portion of the study, a randomized, balanced 2-way crossover design was employed wherein eight healthy horses received a single oral dose of either capsules or paste followed by a 4 week washout period prior to administration of the second formulation to the same horse. Blood samples were collected at time 0 (prior to drug administration) and at various times up to 96 h postdrug administration. Plasma samples were analyzed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and data analyzed using both noncompartmental and compartmental analysis. Peak plasma concentrations were 28.9 ± 21.6 and 37.8 ± 12.8 ng/mL for capsules and paste, respectively and occurred at 3.8 h for both formulations. Dantrolene and its major metabolite were both below the limit of detection in both plasma and urine by 168 h postadministration.  相似文献

Date from plasma and urine samples from four ewe lambs were analyzed after administration of sulfamerazine as single IV and oral doses. A two-compartment pharmacokinetic model was developed to describe the disposition of sulfamerazine. The drug was eliminated, primarily by renal excretion of (i) unchanged sulfamerazine and metabolism to an acetyl metabolite, (ii) polar conjugates, and (iii) a third metabolite. The biological half-life of the drug was 6.6 hours. The average value of the absorption rate constant was 0.433 hour-1 (half-life 1.60 hours). Sulfarmerazine was relatively completely absorbed (approx 81% of dose) after oral administration in solution.  相似文献

Nebbia, C., Dacasto, M., Ceppa, L., Gennaro Soffietti, M., Spinelli, P., Bergo, V. and Di Simplicio, P., 1997. The comparative effects of subchronic administration of triphenyltin acetate (TPTA) on the hepatic and renal drug-metabolizing enzymes in rabbits and lambs. Veterinary Research Communications, 21 (2), 117-125The purpose of this study was to determine whether subchronic (70 days) oral exposure to moderate to high levels of triphenyltin acetate (TPTA), an organotin derivative used worldwide, would affect the microsomal hepatic and renal drug-metabolizing enzymes in rabbits and lambs. Rabbits were offered a diet containing 0, 15, 75 or 150 ppm TPTA, while lambs were daily given 0, 1.5 or 7.5 mg TPTA per kg bw. The tin content in the liver and kidneys was measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. In the rabbits' livers, TPTA failed to affect the cytochrome P450 content, or the oxidative, hydrolytic (carboxylesterase) or conjugative (UDPG-transferase) enzyme activities studied. In contrast, a striking dose-related increase in both P450 content and carboxylesterase activity (up to 280%) was detected in the rabbits' kidneys, but the ECOD and EROD activities were respectively unchanged or moderately depressed. None of the enzymes studied showed statistically significant changes in the ovine hepatic or renal subfractions. The results suggest that repeated exposure to TPTA could lead to the induction of a particular P450-isoenzyme in rabbit kidneys which is concerned with the metabolism of endogenous compounds (e.g. steroids, prostaglandins, thromboxanes). The lack of significant tissue- and species-related differences in the concentration of tin supports the hypothesis that the changes observed in the rabbits' kidneys may not have been caused solely by the accumulation of the metal in the tissues.  相似文献

Understanding the disposition kinetics and the pattern of metabolism is critical to optimise the flukicidal activity of triclabendazole (TCBZ) in ruminants. TCBZ is metabolised by both flavin-monooxygenase (FMO) and cytochrome P450 (P450) in the liver. Interference with these metabolic pathways may be useful to increase the systemic availabilities of TCBZ metabolites, which may improve the efficacy against Fasciola hepatica . The plasma disposition of TCBZ metabolites was evaluated following TCBZ co-administration with FMO [methimazole (MTZ)] and P450 [piperonyl butoxyde (PB) and ketoconazole (KTZ)] inhibitors in sheep. Twenty (20) healthy Corriedale x Merino weaned female lambs were randomly allocated into four experimental groups. Animals of each group were treated as follow: Group A, TCBZ alone (5 mg/kg, IV route); Group B, TCBZ (5 mg/kg, IV) + MTZ (3 mg/kg, IV); Group C, TCBZ (5 mg/kg, IV) + PB (30 mg/kg, IV) and Group D, TCBZ (5 mg/kg, IV) + KTZ (10 mg/kg, orally). Blood samples were taken over 240 h post-treatment and analysed by HPLC. TCBZ sulphoxide and sulphone were the main metabolites recovered in plasma. MTZ did not affect TCBZ disposition kinetics. TCBZ sulphoxide Cmax values were significantly increased ( P  < 0.05) after the TCBZ + PB (62%) and TCBZ + KTZ (37%) treatments compared to those measured in the TCBZ alone treatment. TCBZ sulphoxide plasma AUCs were higher ( P  < 0.05) in the presence of both PB (99%) and KTZ (41%). Inhibition of TCBZ P450-mediated oxidation in the liver accounted for the increased systemic availability of its active metabolite TCBZ sulphoxide. This work contributes to the search of different strategies to improve the use of this flukicidal drug in ruminants.  相似文献

To study the role of cytochrome P-450-dependent mixed function oxidase reactions in equine 3-methylindole (3MI) toxicosis, ponies were given 20 mg of phenobarbital/kg of body weight at 72, 60, 48, 36, and 24 hours before 100 mg of oral 3MI/kg to induce cytochrome P-450 or no treatment (controls). Maximal 3MI plasma concentration was decreased and clearance was faster in phenobarbital-treated ponies. Plasma 3MI was still detectable 12 and 36 hours after dosing in phenobarbital-treated and control ponies, respectively. Phenobarbital treatment induced a distribution phase with transition from a 1-compartment to a 2-compartment extravascular model. Bronchiolitis occurred in all ponies 72 hours after 3MI, but was more severe in those treated with phenobarbital. Appearance of a distribution phase, increased total body clearance, and more severe bronchiolitis in phenobarbital-treated ponies indicated that mixed function oxidases are involved in metabolism and conversion of 3MI to a toxic metabolite.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetic properties of the developmental Amino-Acetonitrile Derivative (AAD), monepantel and its sulfone metabolite, monepantel sulfone were investigated in sheep following intravenous (i.v.) and oral administrations. The sulfone metabolite was rapidly formed and predominated over monepantel 4 h after dosing, irrespective of the route of administration. The steady-state volume of distribution, total body clearance and mean residence time of monepantel were 7.4 L/kg, 1.49 L/(kg·h) and 4.9 h, respectively and 31.2 L/kg, 0.28 L/(kg·h) and 111 h, respectively for monepantel sulfone. The overall bioavailability of monepantel was 31%, but it was demonstrated that approximately the same amount of monepantel sulfone was produced whether monepantel was given intravenously or orally ( AUC (0–∞) oral/ AUC (0–∞) i.v. of 94% for monepantel sulfone), making oral administration a very efficient route of administration for monepantel in terms of the amount of sulfone metabolite generated. Because monepantel sulfone is the main chemical entity present in sheep blood after monepantel administration and because it is also an active metabolite, its pharmacokinetic properties are of primary importance for the interpretation of future residue and efficacy studies. Overall, these pharmacokinetic data aid in the evaluation of monepantel as an oral anthelmintic in sheep.  相似文献

The cytochrome P450 (P450) superfamily represents a group of relevant enzymes in the field of drug metabolism and several exogenous or constitutional factors contribute to regulate its expression. Cattle represent an important source of animal-derived food-products and studies concerning the P450 expression are needed for the extrapolation of pharmacotoxicological data from one species to another and for the evaluation of the consumer's risk associated with the consumption of harmful residues found in foodstuffs. In the present study, possible breed-, gender- and species-differences in P4503A (the P450 subfamily more expressed in the human liver) expression were studied in vitro in Piedmontese (PDM) and Limousin (LIM) meat cattle breeds of both sexes and in domestic Ruminants (cattle, sheep and goats). Cytochrome P450 and P4503A contents as well as CYP3A-dependent drug metabolising enzymes (DME) were measured in liver microsomes. Significant lower levels of P450 (P < 0.001) and P4503A (P < 0.05) contents were observed in PDM vs. LIM of both sexes; the P4503A-dependent DME activities were significantly (P values ranging from 0.05 up to 0.001) higher in PDM cattle, particularly in males. A gender-effect in DME activities was noticed (P < 0.05) only in PDM male cattle. With regards to the species, the expression of both P4503A apoprotein and some of the related DME activities were more pronounced in sheep (P < 0.01 vs. cattle) and in goats (P < 0.05 vs. sheep; P < 0.01 vs. cattle) than in cattle. The significant differences in P4503A expression observed in LIM and PDM cattle are consistent with previously published data on strain- and breed-differences pointed out in rats and men. As far as a possible sex-effect is concerned, no clear-cut evidence is likely to be drawn. Finally, P4503A expression was more relevant in small ruminants.  相似文献

The anthelmintic properties of rotenone and its activity in combination with the cytochrome P450 inhibitor piperonyl butoxide, were examined in in vitro assays with adults and larvae of Haemonchus contortus and larvae of Trichostrongylus colubriformis. Rotenone was toxic to larvae of both species, with LC(50) values in larval development assays of 0.54 and 0.64 microg/ml for H. contortus and T. colubriformis, respectively. The compound also caused complete cessation of movement in adult H. contortus after 72 h at a concentration of 20 microg/ml. Toxicity of rotenone towards the larvae of both species was increased in the presence of piperonyl butoxide (synergism ratios of 3-4-fold at the LC(50)) and the activity against adult H. contortus was also significantly enhanced following pre-treatment with piperonyl butoxide. This significant synergism suggests that these nematode species are able to utilize a cytochrome P450 enzyme system to detoxify rotenone and indicates that a role may exist for cytochrome P450 inhibitors to act as synergists for other anthelmintics which are susceptible to oxidative metabolism within the nematode.  相似文献

Twenty-one wild male Japanese black bears (Ursus thibetanus japonicus) were captured in the summer-autumn of 1998-2000 in the vicinity of Neo Village, Gifu Prefecture. Testes were measured, and testicular samples were biopsied and observed histologically. Four steroidogenic enzymes, i.e., cholesterol side-chain cleavage cytochrome P450 (P450scc), 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3betaHSD), 17-alpha hydroxylase cytochrome P450 (P450c17), and aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom) were immunolocalized. Serum testosterone concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay. Testis size changed little from 1-3 years of age, increased rapidly at 4 years, and attained its peak at 5 years. Serum testosterone concentrations ranged from 0.05 to 1.78 ng/m l, and the mean +/- standard deviation was 0.43 +/- 0.48 ng/ml. Age of sexual maturation in wild male Japanese black bears was estimated to be 3-4 years. Seasonal changes in spermatogenesis were obvious; active in June, July and August, degenerated by September. Leydig cells, Sertoli cells and germ cells have the capability of synthesizing androgen, and Leydig cells, Sertoli cells, spermatids and spermatogonia have the capability of synthesizing estrogen in Japanese black bears.  相似文献

Nivalenol (NIV) is a toxic Fusarium secondary trichothecene metabolite occurring naturally in cereal grains. In order to evaluate the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL), we tested the effects of a large array of oral doses of this toxin for responses on plasma biochemistry, the immune system and hepatic drug metabolism in mice. C57Bl6 mice received oral doses of toxin (0.014, 0.071, 0.355, 1.774 or 8.87 mg/kg bw) 3 days a week for 4 weeks. Only the highest dose of NIV induced an increase in plasma phosphate, decreases in plasma urea and immunoglobulin M and additional changes like increases in plasma alkaline phosphatase and immunoglobulin G. Interleukin 4 production was increased in cultured murine splenocytes. Regarding liver drug metabolising enzymes, the only glutathione transferase activity accepting 1-chloro-2,4-dinitro-benzene as substrate was transiently increased in mice receiving low doses (0.071 and 0.355 mg/kg bw) of NIV. Regarding the cytochrome P450 monooxygenases, no significant change was observed in ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase activity whereas both methoxyresorufin and pentoxyresorufin O-dealkylase activities were decreased by 38-45% for the highest dose (8.87 mg/kg bw) of NIV. However, when analysed by Western blot analysis, the protein expression of mouse P450 1a, 2b, 2c, 3a and 4a subfamilies was unchanged in animals receiving NIV. In conclusion, the NOAEL of this toxin in our study was 1.774 mg/kg bw, corresponding to an exposure to 5 ppm contaminated food. Indeed hepatotoxicity appears in the only mice treated with a five fold higher oral dose of 8.87 mg/kg bw of NIV. Such exposure levels appear to be by far higher than the maximal natural occurrence measured in European cereals, known to range from 0.34 to 1.86 ppm.  相似文献

The intramuscular (i.m.), oral (p.o.), and bath immersion disposition of enrofloxacin were evaluated following administration to a cultured population of red pacu. The half-life for enrofloxacin following i.m. administration was 28.9 h, considerably longer than values calculated for other animals such as dogs, birds, rabbits, and tortoises. The 4 h maximum concentration ( C max) of 1.64 μg/mL following a single 5.0 mg/kg dosing easily exceeds the in vitro minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for 20 bacterial organisms known to infect fish. At 48 h post i.m. administration, the mean plasma enrofloxacin concentration was well above the MIC for most gram-negative fish pathogens. The gavage method of oral enrofloxacin administration produced a C max of 0.94 μg/mL at 6–8 h. This C max was well above the reported in vitro MIC. A bath immersion concentration of 2.5 mg/L for 5 h was used in this study. The C max of 0.17 μg/mL was noted on the 2 hour post-treatment plasma sample. Plasma concentrations of enrofloxacin exceeded published in vitro MIC's for most fish bacterial pathogens 72 h after treatment was concluded. Ciprofloxacin, an active metabolite of enrofloxacin, was detected and measured after all methods of drug administration. It is possible and practical to obtain therapeutic blood concentrations of enrofloxacin in the red pacu using p.o., i.m., and bath immersion administration. The i.m. route is the most predictable and results in the highest plasma concentrations of the drug.  相似文献

The oxidative metabolism of monensin, an ionophore antibiotic extensively used in veterinary practice as a coccidiostat and a growth promoter, was studied in hepatic microsomal preparations from horses, pigs, broiler chicks, cattle and rats. As assayed by the measurement of the amount of the released formaldehyde, the rate of monensin O-demethylation was nearly of the same order of magnitude in all species, but total monensin metabolism, which was estimated by measuring the rate of substrate disappearance by a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method, was highest in cattle, intermediate in rats, chicks and pigs, and lowest in horses. When expressed as turnover number (nmol of metabolized monensin/min nmol cytochrome P450-1), the catalytic efficiency (chick > cattle > pig approximately rat > horse) was found to correlate inversely with the well known interspecies differences in the susceptibility to the toxic effects of the ionophore, which is characterized by an oral LD50 of 2-3 mg/kg bodyweight (bw) in horses, 50-80 mg/kg bw in cattle and 200 mg/kg bw in chicks. Chick and cattle microsomes also displayed both the highest catalytic efficiency toward two P450 3A dependent substrates (erythromycin and triacetyloleandomycin) and the highest immunodetectable levels of proteins cross-reacting with anti rat P450 3A1/2. Further studies are required to define the role played by this isoenzyme in the oxidative biotransformation of the drug in food producing species.  相似文献

The metabolism of dexamethasone (DXM) in the camel was assessed by in vivo and in vitro techniques. Liver samples were collected at the abattoir from camels of either sex, and microsomes were isolated and characterized as to their protein and haemoprotein content as well as for their ability to metabolise several cytochrome P450 model substrates. The expression of different P450 enzymes was evaluated by means of immunoblotting, and the glucuronidating capacity was assessed with 1-naphthol as the substrate. The activity of 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 was assayed using metyrapone as a model substrate. To examine the in vitro metabolism of DXM, microsomes were incubated with the corticoid in the presence of either a NADPH-generating system or of uridindiphosphoglucuronic acid. In vivo metabolism of DXM was studied in two male camels, injected with a bolus intravenous dose of DXM (0.2 mg/kg body weight) and DXM metabolites were evaluated in urine samples collected at different times after the administration. DXM and metabolites were extracted using solid phase and liquid-liquid extraction, and analysed by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and by LC/MS/MS. Comparative results were obtained by in vitro and in vivo studies. Two phase I metabolites were detected: the major one resulted from reduction of the 3-carbonyl group in ring A and the minor metabolite from ring hydroxylation of ring A. Glucuronidation involved both phase I metabolites as well as the parent compound.  相似文献

Moxidectin is an antiparasitic drug widely used in cattle, sheep and companion animals. Due to the involvement of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and cytochrome P450 3A in the metabolism of moxidectin, we studied the influence of various P-gp interfering agents (ivermectin, quercetin and ketoconazole) on the metabolism of 14C moxidectin in cultured rat hepatocytes over 72 h. This in vitro study allowed selection of compounds which are able to increase the moxidectin bioavailability in lambs. From this, the modulation of moxidectin pharmacokinetics in plasma of lambs was studied after co-administration of 0.2 mg kg(-1) moxidectin (subcutaneously (SC)) and 0.2 mg kg(-1) ivermectin (SC), or 10 mg kg(-1) quercetin (SC), or 10 mg kg(-1) ketoconazole (orally). Ivermectin and quercetin increased significantly the quantity of 14C moxidectin in the rat hepatocytes. Ketoconazole co-administration led to a higher concentration of moxidectin in the rat hepatocytes. In vivo, only quercetin was able to modify the pharmacokinetics of moxidectin in plasma of lambs by increasing significantly the area under the plasma concentration-time curve. This study allowed the use of a natural agent, quercetin, to improve the bioavailability of moxidectin.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine if acute and chronic changes in circulating metabolic hormone and metabolite concentrations are associated with β-agonist-induced nutrient repartitioning in young growing lambs. Two groups of 12 Dorset and Dorset-Finn cross ram lambs weighing 36 or 33 kg live weight were assigned to 3- or 6-week treatment intervals, respectively, to achieve similar slaughter weights. Six lambs within each treatment interval were fed ad libitum a complete mixed high-concentrate diet containing either 0 or 10 ppm cimaterol. During the first 12 hr of cimaterol administration plasma somatotropin (ST), thyroxine (T4), and triiodothyronine (T3) concentrations were not altered by treatment, but plasma insulin, glucose, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and glycerol concentrations were elevated 2 hr after ingestion. These acute responses suggest direct stimulation of glycogenolysis and lipolysis by cimaterol, which is characteristic of β-adrenergic alteration of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Chronic administration of cimaterol significantly decreased insulin concentrations by 36% and 52% at 3 and 6 weeks, respectively, while glucose concentrations remained unchanged. Serum IGF-I concentrations were not significantly altered by cimaterol. T4 levels were reduced 22.1% after 3 weeks of cimaterol treatment. Although plasma NEFA concentrations were chronically elevated 56% to 65% in lambs fed cimaterol, plasma glycerol concentrations remained at baseline levels. The relative changes in plasma NEFA and glycerol concentrations are consistent with a decreased rate of lipogenesis, rather than an increase in lipolysis.  相似文献

The administration of xenobiotics such as phenobarbital (PB) and chlorinated hydrocarbons to rats, mice and several other species has been shown to increase the level of hepatic mixed function oxidases. Experiments were conducted to establish the effect of dose of PB, sex of animals, and effect of interval from dose to measurement on concentration of hepatic enzymes in barrows and gilts 6 to 9 mo of age and weighing 100 to 120 kg. Animals given 1 or 2 g PB for 3 d had higher concentrations of microsomal protein cytochrome b5 and P-450 and NADPH cytochrome c reductase than control animals (P less than .01). Animals given 2 g PB had 3.5 times as much cytochrome P 450 as did controls. Barrows and gilts did not differ from each other in any variables measured (P less than .20). In a study of the time course of induction all animals given PB had higher levels of microsomal protein, cytochrome P-450 and reductase in 24 h than controls; however, cytochrome b5 was depressed on d 1 and was elevated by d 3. Concentration of cytochrome P-450 reached a maximum by d 7 (P less than .01); cytochromes b5 and c reductase reached a maximum by d 9 and 3, respectively (P less than .01). Levels of cytochrome P-450 were higher in gilts than in barrows on all days following PB treatment (P less than .04). Microsomal protein, cytochrome b5, cytochrome P-450 and reductase remained elevated for 6 d after the last treatment with PB.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Enrofloxacin was given to broiler chickens, 3 groups of 6 birds each, at a dose of 5 mg/kg. Routes of administration were intravenous (i.v.), intramuscular (i.m.) and oral (p.o.) and blood samples were collected from the jugular vein for determination of serum drug levels over a 54-hour period after administration. Drug levels were determined using Bacillus subtilis spore suspension on Meuller-Hinton antibiotic medium. Intravenous administration produced drug levels which followed a bi-exponential decay according to the model C = 101e(-1.84(t)) + 1.30e(-0.06(t)). After i.m. administration, the mean Cmax observed (2.01 microg/mL) occurred at 1 h and levels were detected for up to 48 h. The mean time to maximum concentration (Tmax) for the birds occurred at 0.79 h. The model describing serum concentrations after i.m. administration was C = 1.35e(-0.48(t)) + 1.27e(-0.07(t)) - 2.06e(-2.1(t)). Serum concentrations after oral administration were lower and the mean +/- standard error of mean, of the maximum concentrations (Cmax) was 0.99 microg/mL at 2 h after administration. The mean residence times after the 3 routes of administration were not significantly different and ranged from 12.5-13.7 h. Bioavailability by the oral route was 80.1%. Dialysis of chicken plasma vs saline indicated that the protein binding was 22.7%.  相似文献
