RESUMO

Skin photoaging is exogenous aging caused by long-term ultraviolet radiation, which not only affects skin appearance, but also has a close relationship with the development of skin cancer. Saponins, flavonoids, polyphenols, polysaccharides, and extracts of Chinese medicine have been found to have anti-skin photoaging effects in recent studies. Various mechanisms such as anti-oxidative stress damage, inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase expression, promotion of collagen synthesis, inhibition of inflammatory response, DNA damage repair, enhancement of cell autophagy, and inhibition of melanin synthesis can improve the symptoms of skin photoaging and delay the photoaging process. With the active ingredients of Chinese medicine for anti-skin photoaging as the entry point, the study systematically discussed the research progress of the mechanisms underlying the anti-photoaging effects of active ingredients of Chinese medicine in recent years, in order to provide theoretical reference for the development of new anti-photoaging drugs and methods.

RESUMO

Paeoniae Radix Alba is the dried root of Paeonia lactiflora, which was first recorded in the Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica and listed as the top grade. It is a common blood-tonifying herb, and its chemical components are mainly monoterpenes and their glycosides, triterpenes, flavonoids and so on. Modern research has demonstrated that Paeoniae Radix Alba has the activities of anti-inflammation, pain easing, liver protection, and anti-oxidation, and thus it is widely used in clinical practice and has broad development prospects. In this paper, the research progress on the chemical composition, pharmacological effects, and quality control of Paeoniae Radix Alba were summarized. On this basis, the Q-markers of Paeoniae Radix Alba were predicted from the aspects of mass transfer and traceability, chemical composition specificity, and availability and measurability of chemical components, which will provide a scientific basis for the quality evaluation of Paeoniae Radix Alba.

RESUMO

This work aims to investigate how the bile acid metabolism of newborns differs from that of adults along the axis of primary, secondary, and tertiary bile acids (BAs). The total unconjugated BA profiles were quantitatively determined by enzyme digestion techniques in urine of 21 newborns born by cesarean section, 29 healthy parturient women, 30 healthy males, and 28 healthy nonpregnant females. As expected, because of a lack of developed gut microbiota, newborns exhibited poor metabolism of secondary BAs. Accordingly, the tertiary BAs contributed limitedly to the urinary excretion of BAs in newborns despite their tertiary-to-secondary ratios significantly increasing. As a result, the primary BAs of newborns underwent extensive oxidative metabolism, resulting in elevated urinary levels of some fetal-specific BAs, including 3-dehydroCA, 3ß,7α,12α-trihydroxy-5ß-cholan-24-oic acid, 3α,12-oxo-hydroxy-5ß-cholan-24-oic acid, and nine tetrahydroxy-cholan-24-oic acids (Tetra-BAs). Parturient women had significantly elevated urinary levels of tertiary BAs and fetal-specific BAs compared with female control, indicating that they may be excreted into amniotic fluid for maternal disposition. An in vitro metabolism assay in infant liver microsomes showed that four Tetra-BAs and 3-dehydroCA were hydroxylated metabolites of cholate, glycocholate, and particularly taurocholate. However, the recombinant cytochrome P450 enzyme assay found that the fetal-specific CYP3A7 did not contribute to these oxidation metabolisms as much as expected compared with CYP3A4. In conclusion, newborns show a BA metabolism pattern predominated by primary BA oxidations due to immaturity of secondary BA metabolism. Translational studies following this finding may bring new ideas and strategies for both pediatric pharmacology and diagnosis and treatment of perinatal cholestasis-associated diseases. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The prenatal BA disposition is different from adults because of a lack of gut microbiota. However, how the BA metabolism of newborns differs from that of adults along the axis of primary, secondary, and tertiary BAs remains poorly defined. This work demonstrated that the urinary BA profiles of newborns born by cesarean section are characterized by oxidative metabolism of primary BAs, in which the fetal-specific CYP3A7 plays a limited role in the downstream oxidation metabolism of cholate.

RESUMO

Kaempferol is a natural flavonol that possesses various pharmacological activities, including anti-arthritis effects, yet the underlying mechanisms remain controversial. To evaluate the anti-arthritis efficacy and the underlying mechanisms of kaempferol, collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice were treated with kaempferol intragastrically (200 mg · kg-1 · d-1) and intraperitoneally (20 mg · kg-1 · d-1). Pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic studies showed that the oral administration of kaempferol produced distinct anti-arthritis effects in model mice with arthritis in terms of the spleen index, arthritis index, paw thickness, and inflammatory factors; the bioavailability (1.5%, relative to that of the intraperitoneal injection) and circulatory exposure of kaempferol (Cmax = 0.23 ± 0.06 ng/mL) and its primary metabolite kaempferol-3-O-glucuronide (Cmax = 233.29 ± 89.64 ng/mL) were rather low. In contrast, the intraperitoneal injection of kaempferol caused marginal anti-arthritis effects, although it achieved a much higher in vivo exposure. The much higher kaempferol content in the gut implicated a potential mechanism involved in the gut. Analysis of 16S ribosomal RNA revealed that CIA caused imbalance of 14 types of bacteria at the family level, whereas kaempferol largely rebalanced the intestinal microbiota in CIA mice. A metabolomics study showed that kaempferol treatment significantly reversed the perturbation of metabolites involved in energy production and the tryptophan, fatty acid and secondary bile acid metabolisms in the gut contents of the CIA mice. In conclusion, we demonstrate for the first time that the high level of kaempferol in the gut regulates the intestinal flora and microbiotic metabolism, which are potentially responsible for the anti-arthritis activities of kaempferol.

RESUMO

The primary bile acids (BAs) synthesized from cholesterol in the liver are converted to secondary BAs by gut microbiota. It was recently disclosed that the major secondary BA, deoxycholate (DCA) species, is stereoselectively oxidized to tertiary BAs exclusively by CYP3A enzymes. This work subsequently investigated the in vitro oxidation kinetics of DCA at C-1ß, C-3ß, C-4ß, C-5ß, C-6α, C-6ß, and C-19 in recombinant CYP3A enzymes and naive enzymes in human liver microsomes (HLMs). The stereoselective oxidation of DCA fit well with Hill kinetics at 1-300 µM in both recombinant CYP3A enzymes and pooled HLMs. With no contributions or trace contributions from CYP3A5, CYP3A7 favors oxidation at C-19, C-4ß, C-6α, C-3ß, and C-1ß, whereas CYP3A4 favors the oxidation at C-5ß and C-6ß compared with each other. Correlation between DCA oxidation and testosterone 6ß-hydroxylation in 14 adult single-donor HLMs provided proof-of-concept evidence that DCA 19-hydroxylation is an in vitro marker reaction for CYP3A7 activity, whereas oxidation at other sites represents mixed indicators for CYP3A4 and CYP3A7 activities. Deactivation caused by DCA-induced cytochrome P450-cytochrome P420 conversion, as shown by the spectral titrations of isolated CYP3A proteins, was observed when DCA levels were near or higher than the critical micelle concentration (about 1500 µM). Unlike CYP3A4, CYP3A7 showed abnormally elevated activities at 500 and 750 µM, which might be associated with an altered affinity for DCA multimers. The disclosed kinetic and functional roles of CYP3A isoforms in disposing of the gut bacteria-derived DCA may help in understanding the structural and functional mechanisms of CYP3A.

RESUMO

The gut microbiota modifies endogenous primary bile acids (BAs) to produce exogenous secondary BAs, which may be further metabolized by cytochrome P450 enzymes (P450s). Our primary aim was to examine how the host adapts to the stress of microbe-derived secondary BAs by P450-mediated oxidative modifications on the steroid nucleus. Five unconjugated tri-hydroxyl BAs that were structurally and/or biologically associated with deoxycholate (DCA) were determined in human biologic samples by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry in combination with enzyme-digestion techniques. They were identified as DCA-19-ol, DCA-6ß-ol, DCA-5ß-ol, DCA-6α-ol, DCA-1ß-ol, and DCA-4ß-ol based on matching in-laboratory synthesized standards. Metabolic inhibition assays in human liver microsomes and recombinant P450 assays revealed that CYP3A4 and CYP3A7 were responsible for the regioselective oxidations of both DCA and its conjugated forms, glycodeoxycholate (GDCA) and taurodeoxycholate (TDCA). The modification of secondary BAs to tertiary BAs defines a host liver (primary BAs)-gut microbiota (secondary BAs)-host liver (tertiary BAs) axis. The regioselective oxidations of DCA, GDCA, and TDCA by CYP3A4 and CYP3A7 may help eliminate host-toxic DCA species. The 19- and 4ß-hydroxylation of DCA species demonstrated outstanding CYP3A7 selectivity and may be useful as indicators of CYP3A7 activity.

RESUMO

Biological responses of a variety of naturally occurring compounds in vivo were restrained by their poor oral bioavailability. Silybin, as one of the active ingredients of silymarin, has presented promising bioactivity for the treatment of chronic liver diseases and cancer. However, its exposure in body was limited. In this study, silybin was demonstrated to be substrates of both BCRP and MRP2 by utilizing monolayer Caco-2 cell model and confirmed in MDCK cells overexpressing specific efflux transporter. Of all compounds screened, tangeretin, a potent inhibitor of efflux transporters of BCRP, MRP2 and P-gp, was able to enhance exposure of silybin by inhibiting functions of the barriers mediating transcellular transport. Moreover, study carried out in sandwich-cultured rat hepatocyte (SCH) model showed that the biliary excretion index (BEI) and in vitro biliary clearance of silybin decreased as levels of tangeretin increased, indicating efflux transporters mediating biliary excretion of silybin might be involved. Pharmacokinetic behaviors of silybin in rats were altered by co-administration of tangeretin, in terms of increased AUC and Cmax of silybin by comparing with that of silybin given alone. In addition, results coming from CCl4-induced acute liver injury rat model revealed that protection effect of silybin against liver damage in the presence of tangeretin was significantly enhanced. All these data were evident that efflux transporters play a critical role in transcellular transport of silybin and account for its low bioavailability. Enhanced bioavailability of silybin with co-administration of tangeretin by significantly inhibiting the efflux transporters further boost its bioactivity which is of particular importance in clinical use.

RESUMO

Temozolomide (TMZ) combination with whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) has been tested by many randomized controlled trials in the treatment of brain metastases (BMs) in China and other countries. We performed an up-to-date meta-analysis to determine (i) the log odds ratios (LORs) of objective response (ORR) and adverse effects (AEs) for all-grade, and (ii) the T value of mean overall survival in patients with BMs treated with WBRT combined with TMZ versus WBRT alone. PubMed, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, and WanFang Data were searched for articles published up to 28 January 2015. Eligible studies were selected according to the PRISMA statement. ORR, AEs, and 95% confidence intervals were calculated using random-effects models. Eighteen studies were included in our analysis. A total of 1028 participants were enrolled. Summary LORs of ORR were 1.0239 (P<0.0001) on comparing WBRT plus TMZ with WBRT ORR (n=17). The overall mean difference of mean overall survival (n=17) between TMZ plus WBRT and WBRT was 2.2505 weeks (P=0.02185). There was a significant difference between WBRT plus TMZ and WBRT alone with a LOR of AEs for all-grade of (i) 0.923 for gastrointestinal toxicity and (ii) 0.7978 for myelosuppression. Sensitivity analysis and subgroup analysis were also performed. The 18 eligible randomized controlled trials demonstrated that the combination of WBRT and TMZ significantly improves the ORR and is statistically insignificant in prolonging the survival of patients with BMs. In addition, an increase in the incidence of gastrointestinal toxicity and myelosuppression was significant for all-grade.

RESUMO

Pharmacokinetic behavior of orally administrated formulations involves dissolution and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), which is required for the systemic effects of a drug. The dissolution and subsequent penetration through the intestinal epithelia is a vital step toward in vivo bioavailability. A lot of effort has been devoted to the study of physiological characteristics of GIT by means of in vitro dissolution methods or in vitro permeation methods. Moreover, drug dissolution/permeation synchronous evaluation technology could be employed to predict the process of drug dissolution and absorption by the combination of dissolution apparatus and permeation apparatus. Better prediction tools are priority in the critical path initiative of US Food and Drug Administration. The studies and applications of the drug dissolution/permeation synchronous evaluation technology are attracting more and more attention each year. However, there is no systematic review on the theoretical basis and the recent development. Therefore, in this review, we will give an overview on the physiological basis and theoretical basis of the drug dissolution/permeation synchronous evaluation technology, as well as their recent advances of this kind of equipments at home and abroad. Moreover, we have also compared their advantages and disadvantages, and the applicable scopes. With hope that the critical path study will promote the development of innovative drug research and development, and improve the druggability.

RESUMO

This study was designed to explore the mechanism of Yuanhu Zhitong Dropping Pills(YHZT) in the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea by pharmacological network technology and establish a research approach of "Compound-Target-Pathway-Disease" network. Twenty-eight compounds absorbed into blood including 22 prototype and 6 metabolites of YHZT were submitted to Pharm Mapper and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) bioinformatics softwares to predict the target proteins and related pathways respectively. The network of "Compound-Target-Pathway-Disease" was constructed and analyzed using Cytoscape software. The in silico prediction results showed that the 28 constituents of YHZT affected 111 pathways through 109 target proteins. Among them, a total of 52 proteins and 31 pathways were related to the primary dysmenorrhea. The effect of YHZT on primary dysmenorrhea may be dependent on regulation of the proteins and pathways related with hormonal regulation, central analgesia, spasmolysis, inflammation and immunoregulation.

RESUMO

The chemical constituents of Corydalis Rhizoma were identified in the 60% ethanol extract using high performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization quadruple time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-QTOF/MS). The stimulation and inhibition effects of Corydalis Rhizoma and its representative compounds (protopine, palmatine, tetrahydropalmatine) on G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), including 5-hydroxytryptamine 1A receptor(5-HT(1A)), µ opioid receptor (OPRM1), ß(2) adrenergic receptor (ADRB2), dopamine receptor (D(2)), acetylcholine receptor (M(2)) and thromboxane-prostaglandin receptor (TP) were explored using the fluorescence assay of intracellular calcium ion. As a result, 31 compounds were obtained and 28 alkaloid compounds were identified. The results of GPCR experiments showed that Corydalis Rhizoma could activate 5-HT(1A), OPRM1, ADRB2 receptors and block D(2) receptor. Protopine showed antagonism on D2 and M2 receptors, tetrahydropalmatine could agitate ADRB2 receptor and antagonize D(2) and TP receptors, while palmatine showed no significant biological activity on the 6 GPCRs. In conclusion, Corydalis Rhizoma may exert biological activity by multi-components acting on multi-targets.

RESUMO

Bentysrepinine (Y101), a derivative of phenylalanine dipeptide, is a novel drug candidate for the treatment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Our previous preclinical pharmacokinetic study showed that its in vivo absorption and distribution characteristics were probably related to transmembrane transport after Y101 was administered intragastically in rats. In this study, Caco-2 and MDCK-MDR1 cell models were used to investigate interactions between Y101 and P-gp through the apparent permeation coefficient (P(app)) and efflux ratio (RE); the results showed that Y101 was a substrate of P-gp. In addition, gene-transfected cell models, HEK293-h OATP1B1, HEK293-h OATP2B1 and CHO-PEPT1 were used to evaluate the affinity to OATP1B1, OATP2B1 and PEPT1. The results suggest that Y101 has a weak inhibitory effect on OATP1B1 and OATP2B1, and Y101 may not be substrates of OATP1B1, OATP2B1 or PEPT1. The above results can be used to explain the in vivo absorption and distribution characteristics, and to provide a scientific basis for the further development of Y101.

RESUMO

Bentysrepinine (Y101), a derivative of phenyalanine dipeptide, has a novel mechanism in the treatment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection with a good anti-HBV effect. In the present study, a fluorometric-based high throughput method using cytochrome P450 (CYP) screening kit was adopted to evaluate in vitro inhibition potential of Y101 on CYP isoenzymes by calculating remaining enzyme activities and inhibitory potential (IC(50) values) using the determined values of fluorescence intensity. The result showed that Y101 exhibited little activity in the inhibition of CYP1A2, CYP3A4, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 (IC(50) > 100 µmol·L(-1)). Y101 was used to treat human primary hepotocytes for 72 h, and the enzyme activities of CYP1A2, CYP2B6 and CYP3A4 were determined with a cocktail of probe substrates for the three CYP isoforms. The metabolites were simultaneously determined using a LC-MS/MS method. Y101 had no activity in the induction of CYP1A2, CYP2B6 and CYP3A4 on the basis of the following results: 1 The ratio of enzyme activities between test and control groups were all below than 1 (varied from 0.662 to 0.928); 2 The induction potential of Y101 were lower than forty percent compared with that of positive groups. The above results suggest that Y101 has little activity in the regulation of metabolic drug-drug interactions based on the CYP isoform changes following co-administration of drugs.

RESUMO

A rapid, sensitive and simple liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of clevidipine butyrate and its primary metabolite clevidipine acid in dog blood. After one-step protein precipitation with methanol, the chromatographic separation was carried out on an Ecosil C18 column (150 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 µm) with a gradient mobile phase consisting of methanol and 5 mmol · L(-1) ammonium formate. A chromatographic total run time of 13.0 min was achieved. The quantitation analysis was performed using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) at the specific ion transitions of m/z 454.1 [M-H]- --> m/z 234.1 for clevidipine butyrate, m/z 354.0 [M-H]- --> m/z 208.0 for clevidipine acid and m/z 256.1 [M-H]- --> m/z 227.1 for elofesalamide (internal standard, IS) in the negative ion mode with electrospray ionization (ESI) source. The linear calibration curves for clevidipine butyrate and clevidipine acid were obtained in the concentration ranges of 0.5-100 ng · mL and 1-200 ng · mL(-1), separately. The lower limit of quantification of clevidipine butyrate and clevidipine acid were 0.5 ng · mL(-1) and 1 ng · mL(-1). The intra and inter-assay precisions were all below 12.9%, the accuracies were all in standard ranges. Stability testing indicated that clevidipine butyrate and clevidipine acid in dog blood with the addition of denaturant methanol was stable under various processing and/or handling conditions. The validated method has been successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study of clevidipine butyrate injection to 8 healthy Beagle dogs following intravenous infusion at a flow rate of 5 mg · h(-1) for 0.5 h.

RESUMO

The teaching status of Molecular Pharmacognosy in 28 institutions in China was investigated by questionnaire and the survey data was analyzed by SPSS. Research contents included course beginning years, majors, class hours, characteristics of the course, teaching ways, the theory and practice contents, evaluation modes, selection of teaching material, teaching achievements, teachers and so on for undergraduates and graduates. Research results showed that with 20 years' development, Molecular Pharmacognosy had been offered for both undergraduate and graduate students in at least 20 colleges and universities and Molecular Pharmacognosy education in China showed good development momentum. At the same time, to promote the development of Molecular Pharmacognosy further, investment for it should be increased and practical teaching condition should be improved.

RESUMO

Twenty-one non-peptide substituted desloratadine class compounds were synthesized as novel arginine vasopressin receptor antagonists from desloratadine via successive acylation, reduction and acylation reactions. Their structures were characterized by 1H-NMR and HRMS, their biological activity was evaluated by in vitro and in vivo studies. The in vitro binding assay and cAMP accumulation assay indicated that these compounds are potent selective V2 receptor antagonists. Among them compounds 1n, 1t and 1v exhibited both high affinity and promising selectivity for V2 receptors. The in vivo diuretic assay demonstrated that 1t presented remarkable diuretic activity. In conclusion, 1t is a potent novel AVP V2 receptor antagonist candidate.

RESUMO

AIM: 20(S)-Ginsenoside Rh2 (Rh2) has shown potent inhibition on P-glycoprotein (P-gp), while most HIV protease inhibitors are both substrates and inhibitors of P-gp and CYP3A4. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential pharmacokinetic interactions between Rh2 and the HIV protease inhibitor ritonavir. METHODS: The effects of Rh2 on the cellular accumulation and transepithelial transport of ritonavir were studied in Caco-2 and MDCK-MDR1 cells. Male rats were administered Rh2 (25 or 60 mg/kg, po) or Rh2 (5 mg/kg, iv), followed by ritonavir (25 mg/kg, po). The P-gp inhibitors verapamil (20 mg/kg, po) or GF120918 (5 mg/kg, po) were used as positive controls. The concentrations of ritonavir in plasma, bile, urine, feces and tissue homogenates were analyzed using LC-MS. RESULTS: Rh2 (10 µmol/L) significantly increased the accumulation and inhibited the efflux of ritonavir in Caco-2 and MDCK-MDR1 cells, as verapamil did. But Rh2 did not significantly alter ritonavir accumulation or transport in MDCK-WT cells. Intravenous Rh2 significantly increased the plasma exposure of ritonavir while reducing its excretion in the bile, and oral verapamil or GF120918 also increased plasma exposure of ritonavir but without changing its excretion in the bile. Interestingly, oral Rh2 at both doses did not significantly change the plasma profile of ritonavir. Moreover, oral Rh2 (25 mg/kg) significantly elevated the ritonavir concentration in the hepatic portal vein, and markedly increased its urinary excretion and tissue distribution, which might counteract the elevated absorption of ritonavir. CONCLUSION: Rh2 inhibits the efflux of ritonavir through P-gp in vitro. The effects of Rh2 on ritonavir exposure in vivo depend on the administration route of Rh2: intravenous, but not oral, administration of Rh2 significantly increased the plasma exposure of ritonavir.
