RESUMO

We aimed to investigate the resuscitative efficacy of hemoglobin vesicles (HbVs) as a red blood cell (RBC) substitute for the initial treatment of severe postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). Twenty-five pregnant rabbits underwent cesarean section; uncontrolled hemorrhage was induced by transecting the right uterine artery to establish a severe PPH model. During the first 30 min, all rabbits were administered 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) of an equivalent volume to the hemorrhage every 5 min. Thereafter, they received any of the following three isovolemic fluids for resuscitation every 5 min: RBCs with platelet-poor plasma (RBC/PPP) (n = 8), 6% HES (n = 7), or HbVs with 25% human serum albumin (n = 10). After surgical hemostasis at 60 min, survival was monitored until 12 h. No rabbits receiving only HES infusion survived beyond 6 h, whereas all rabbits receiving RBC/PPP transfusion survived. The rabbits receiving HbV infusion showed significantly higher mean arterial pressure and hemoglobin levels than the HES-receiving rabbits, and 8 of 10 rabbits survived for 6 h. The HbV group showed significantly higher survival than the HES group but worse survival than the RBC/PPP group. In conclusion, HbV infusion for severe PPH effectively prevents lethal hemorrhagic shock in a pregnant rabbit model.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Hemoglobin vesicles have been developed as artificial oxygen carriers, and they have the potential to serve as a substitute for red blood cell transfusion. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of hemoglobin vesicle infusion for the initial treatment instead of red blood cell transfusion in rabbits with massive obstetric hemorrhage. STUDY DESIGN: Pregnant New Zealand white rabbits (28th day of pregnancy; normal gestation period, 29-35 days) underwent uncontrolled hemorrhage to induce shock by transecting the right midartery and concomitant vein in the myometrium. Subsequently, rabbits received isovolemic fluid resuscitation through the femoral vein with an equivalent volume of hemorrhage every 5 minutes. Resuscitative infusion regimens included 5% human serum albumin (n=6), stored washed red blood cells with plasma (vol/vol=1:1; n=5), and hemoglobin vesicle with 5% human serum albumin (vol/vol=4:1; n=5). A total of 60 minutes after the start of bleeding, rabbits underwent surgical hemostasis by ligation of the bleeding vessels and then were monitored for survival within 24 hours. RESULTS: During fluid resuscitation, hemoglobin vesicle infusion and red blood cell transfusion maintained a mean arterial pressure of >50 mm Hg and a hemoglobin concentration of >9 g/dL and prevented the elevation of plasma lactate. In contrast, resuscitation with 5% human serum albumin alone could not prevent hemorrhagic shock as evidenced by a low mean arterial pressure (40 mm Hg), a low hemoglobin concentration (2 g/dL), and a marked elevation of plasma lactate. All animals in the red blood cell group and the hemoglobin vesicle group survived more than 8 hours, whereas all animals in the 5% human serum albumin group died within 8 hours. CONCLUSION: Hemoglobin vesicle infusion may be effective in the initial management of massive obstetric hemorrhage.

RESUMO

1. Roles of human cytochrome P450 (P450) 3A4 in oxidation of an antihistaminic drug terfenadine have been previously investigated in association with terfenadine-ketoconazole interaction. Several antihistamine drugs have been recently identified as substrates for multiple P450 enzymes. In this study, overall roles of P450 3A4, 2J2, and 4F12 enzymes in terfenadine t-butyl hydroxylation were investigated in small intestines and livers from humans, marmosets, and/or cynomolgus monkeys. 2. Human liver microsomes and liver and small intestine microsomes from marmosets and cynomolgus monkeys effectively mediated terfenadine t-butyl hydroxylation. Ketoconazole and N-hydroxy-N'-(4-butyl-2-methylphenyl)-formamidine (a P450 4A/F inhibitor) almost completely and moderately inhibited these activities, respectively, in human liver microsomes; however, these chemicals did not show substantially suppression in marmoset liver. Anti-human P450 3A and 4F antibodies showed the roughly supportive inhibitory effects. 3. Recombinant P450 3A4/90 and 4F12 showed high terfenadine t-butyl hydroxylation activities with substrate inhibition constants of 84-144 µM (under 26-76 µM of Km values), in similar manners to liver and intestine microsomes. 4. These results suggest that human and marmoset P450 3A4/90 and 4F12 in livers or small intestines played important roles in terfenadine t-butyl hydroxylation. Marmosets could be a model for humans during first pass extraction of terfenadine and related substrates.

RESUMO

Common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) are attracting attention as animal models in preclinical studies for drug development. However, cytochrome P450s (P450s), major drug-metabolizing enzymes, have not been fully identified and characterized in marmosets. In this study, based on the four novel P450 4F genes found on the marmoset genome, we successfully isolated P450 4F2, 4F3B, 4F11, and 4F12 cDNAs in marmoset livers. Deduced amino acid sequences of the four marmoset P450 4F forms exhibited high sequence identities (87%-93%) to the human and cynomolgus monkey P450 4F homologs. Marmoset P450 4F3B and 4F11 mRNAs were predominantly expressed in livers, whereas marmoset P450 4F2 and 4F12 mRNAs were highly expressed in small intestines and livers. Four marmoset P450 4F proteins heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli catalyzed the ω-hydroxylation of leukotriene B4 In addition, marmoset P450 4F12 effectively catalyzed the hydroxylation of antiallergy drug ebastine, a human P450 2J/4F probe substrate. Ebastine hydroxylation activities by small intestine and liver microsomes from marmosets and cynomolgus monkeys showed greatly higher values than those of humans. Ebastine hydroxylation activities by marmoset and cynomolgus monkey small intestine microsomes were inhibited (approximately 60%) by anti-P450 4F antibodies, unlike human small intestine microsomes, suggesting that contribution of P450 4F enzymes for ebastine hydroxylation in the small intestine might be different between marmosets/cynomolgus monkeys and humans. These results indicated that marmoset P450 4F2, 4F3B, 4F11, and 4F12 were expressed in livers and/or small intestines and were functional in the metabolism of endogenous and exogenous compounds, similar to those of cynomolgus monkeys and humans.
