Diclofenac toxicity in human intestine ex vivo is not related to the formation of intestinal metabolites.

Arch. Toxicol. 89(1) , 107-19, (2015)

The use of diclofenac (DCF), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, is associated with a high prevalence of gastrointestinal side effects. In vivo studies in rodents suggested that reactive metabolites of DCF produced by the liver or the intestine might be re...

cIEF for rapid pKa determination of small molecules: a proof of concept.

Eur. J. Pharm. Sci. 63 , 14-21, (2014)

A capillary isoelectric focusing (cIEF) method was developed for the determination of the ionization constants (pKa) of small molecules. Two approaches used to decrease the electroosmotic flow (EOF) were compared: (i) a hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) coated cap...

Involvement of the H1 Histamine Receptor, p38 MAP Kinase, Myosin Light Chains Kinase, and Rho/ROCK in Histamine-Induced Endothelial Barrier Dysfunction.

Microcirculation 22 , 237-48, (2015)

The mechanisms by which histamine increases microvascular permeability remain poorly understood. We tested the hypothesis that H1 receptor activation disrupts the endothelial barrier and investigated potential downstream signals.We used confluent EC monolayer...

Identification of the rat liver cytochrome P450 enzymes involved in the metabolism of the calcium channel blocker dipfluzine hydrochloride.

Environ. Toxicol. Pharmacol. 38(3) , 901-12, (2014)

This study aimed to identify the specific cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes involved in the metabolism of dipfluzine hydrochloride using the combination of a chemical inhibition study, a correlation analysis and a panel of recombinant rat CYP450 enzymes. The i...

A primary fish gill cell culture model to assess pharmaceutical uptake and efflux: evidence for passive and facilitated transport.

Aquat. Toxicol. 159 , 127-37, (2015)

The gill is the principle site of xenobiotic transfer to and from the aqueous environment. To replace, refine or reduce (3Rs) the large numbers of fish used in in vivo uptake studies an effective in vitro screen is required that mimics the function of the tel...

Translating Human Effective Jejunal Intestinal Permeability to Surface-Dependent Intrinsic Permeability: a Pragmatic Method for a More Mechanistic Prediction of Regional Oral Drug Absorption.

AAPS J. 17 , 1177-92, (2015)

Salidroside (SAL) is a phenylpropanoid glycoside isolated from the medicinal plant Rhodiola rosea. A recent study has reported that SAL can efficiently decrease atherosclerotic plaque formation in low-density lipoprotein receptor-deficient mice. This study wa...

Pharmacokinetic study of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose microparticles loaded with cimetidine.

Adv. Clin. Exp. Med. 22(1) , 41-5, (2013)

The objective of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetic behavior of floating hydroxypropylmethylcellulose microparticles loaded with cimetidine (FMC) prepared using the non-solvent addition coacervation technique.Based on the physico-chemical characteri...

Nizatidine, a small molecular compound, enhances killed H5N1 vaccine cell-mediated responses and protects mice from lethal viral challenge.

Hum. Vaccin. Immunother. 10(2) , 461-8, (2014)

Nizatidine (NIZ), closely related to Cimetidine, is a histamine H2 receptor inverse agonist used primarily as an anti-acid drug. Recent studies showed that this class of compounds may also modulate immune responses. To evaluate adjuvant effects of NIZ on vacc...

The binding selectivity of vonoprazan (TAK-438) to the gastric H+, K+ -ATPase.

Aliment. Pharmacol. Ther. 42 , 1315-26, (2015)

The gastric H(+) ,K(+) -ATPase is the preferred target for acid suppression. Until recently, the only drugs that effectively inhibited this ATPase were the proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). PPIs are acid-activated prodrugs that require acid protection. Once acid...

Exacerbation of intracranial aneurysm and aortic dissection in hypertensive rat treated with the prostaglandin F-receptor antagonist AS604872.

J. Pharmacol. Sci. 126(3) , 230-42, (2014)

Intracranial aneurysm (IA) and aortic dissection are both complications of hypertension and characterized by degeneration of the media. Given the involvement of prostaglandin F2α and its receptor, FP, in extracellular matrix remodeling in a mouse model of pul...
