RESUMO

Myclobutanil is a chiral triazole fungicide that is employed worldwide. Although enantiomers have the same physical-chemical properties, they may differ in terms of activity, metabolism, and toxicity. This investigation consisted of in vitro enantioselective metabolism studies that employed a human model to assess the risks of myclobutanil in humans. A LC-MS/MS enantioselective method was developed and validated. The enzymatic kinetic parameters (VMAX, KMapp, and CLINT) determined for in vitro rac-myclobutanil and S-(+)-myclobutanil metabolism revealed enantioselective differences. Furthermore, human CYP450 enzymes did not metabolize R-(-)-myclobutanil. The predicted in vivo toxicokinetic parameters indicated that S-(+)-myclobutanil may be preferentially eliminated by the liver and suffer the first-pass metabolism effect. However, because CYP450 did not metabolize R-(-)-myclobutanil, this enantiomer could reach the systemic circulation and stay longer in the human body, potentially causing toxic effects. The CYP450 isoforms CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 were involved in rac-myclobutanil and S-(+)-myclobutanil metabolism. Although there were differences in the metabolism of the myclobutanil enantiomers, in vitro inhibition studies did not show significant enantioselective differences. Overall, the present investigation suggested that myclobutanil moderately inhibits CYP2D6 and CYP2C9 in vitro and strongly inhibits CYP3A and CYP2C19 in vitro. These results provide useful scientific information for myclobutanil risk assessment in humans.

RESUMO

New effective compounds for tuberculosis treatment are needed. This study evaluated the effects of a series of quinoxaline-derived chalcones against laboratorial strains and clinical isolates of M. tuberculosis. Six molecules, namely N5, N9, N10, N15, N16, and N23 inhibited the growth of the M. tuberculosis H37Rv laboratorial strain. The three compounds (N9, N15 and N23) with the lowest MIC values were further tested against clinical isolates and laboratory strains with mutations in katG or inhA genes. From these data, N9 was selected as the lead compound for further investigation. Importantly, this chalcone displayed a synergistic effect when combined with moxifloxacin. Noteworthy, the anti-tubercular effects of N9 did not rely on inhibition of mycolic acids synthesis, circumventing important mechanisms of resistance. Interactions with cytochrome P450 isoforms and toxic effects were assessed in silico and in vitro. The chalcone N9 was not predicted to elicit any mutagenic, genotoxic, irritant, or reproductive effects, according to in silico analysis. Additionally, N9 did not cause mutagenicity or genotoxicity, as revealed by Salmonella/microsome and alkaline comet assays, respectively. Moreover, N9 did not inhibit the cytochrome P450 isoforms CYP3A4/5, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19. N9 can be considered a potential lead molecule for development of a new anti-tubercular therapeutic agent.
