Cultured chick embryo hepatocytes were iron-loaded with ferric nitrilotriacetate. Iron-loading was confirmed by both quantitative cellular iron determinations and ultrastructural studies. With iron-loading, lipid peroxidation, as detected by malonaldehyde released into the medium, occurred at a linear rate for 12h, after which time the rate of malonaldehyde production decreased. No cell toxicity, as detected by lactate dehydrogenase release, was noted. The amount of malonaldehyde recovered in the medium after 18h of exposure to iron represented 24-33% of the total malonaldehyde that could be produced by incubating lysed cells with iron and ascorbate. Cellular glutathione was not affected by iron-stimulated lipid peroxidation, but was increased by allylisopropylacetamide. Although iron-loading by itself had no effect on activity of 5-aminolaevulinate synthase, the first and rate-limiting step in haem synthesis, iron-loading in the presence of the porphyrogenic drug allylisopropylacetamide ...

Endotoxin was administered to rats at a dose shown previously to stimulate hepatic haem oxygenase activity and to block induction of delta-aminolaevulinate synthase, apparently by causing redistribution of haem from cytochrome P-450 to a regulatory haem pool in the liver. Within 5h of the administration of endotoxin (at a time when the effect of the compound on cytochrome P-450 is maximal) the relative saturation of tryptophan pyrrolase with intrinsic haem rose, from a basal value of 50% to 90%, indicating that free haem had become available. Concurrently, the activity of delta-aminolaevulinate synthase was decreased to 25% of its basal value. Haem oxygenase reached peak activity 13h after endotoxin administration. These findings provide new evidence for the existence of an unassigned hepatic haem fraction, which exchanges with cytochrome P-450 haem and regulates these three enzyme functions. ...

There is considerable evidence that the level of cerebral serotonin plays a key role in the volitional consumption of ethanol in both man and animals. Naive alcohol-preferring C57BL/6J mice have been shown to have a lower cerebral serotonin content compared to the non-preferring CBA/Ca mouse strain. This has been attributed to the enhancement of hepatic tryptophan pyrrolase activity in C57 mice. Activity and/or expression of tryptophan pyrrolase may be an important biological determinant of alcohol preference. We have investigated the possible mechanism/s underlying this strain difference in tryptophan pyrrolase activity by assaying both mRNA levels encoding for the tryptophan pyrrolase gene and by mutational analysis of tryptophan pyrrolase cDNA. We were unable to demonstrate any difference in tryptophan pyrrolase mRNA levels between naive C57 and CBA mice. Tryptophan pyrrolase mRNA levels were increased following starvation in C57 mice and following glucocorticoid administration in both C57 ...

Voltage-gated potassium 11.1 (Kv11.1) channels play a critical role in repolarization of cardiomyocytes during the cardiac action potential (AP). Drug-mediated Kv11.1 blockade results in AP prolongation, which poses an increased risk of sudden cardiac death. Many drugs, like pentamidine, interfere with normal Kv11.1 forward trafficking and thus reduce functional Kv11.1 channel densities. Although class III antiarrhythmics, e.g., dofetilide, rescue congenital and acquired forward trafficking defects, this is of little use because of their simultaneous acute channel blocking effect. We aimed to test the ability of a combination of dofetilide plus LUF7244, a Kv11.1 allosteric modulator/activator, to rescue Kv11.1 trafficking and produce functional Kv11.1 current. LUF7244 treatment by itself did not disturb or rescue wild type (WT) or G601S-Kv11.1 trafficking, as shown by Western blot and immunofluorescence microcopy analysis. Pentamidine-decreased maturation of WT Kv11.1 levels was rescued by 10 ...

Consequences of genetic polymorphisms in Cytochrome P450 2C9 for pharmacokinetics and effects of Diclofenac and Ibuprofen. Cytochrome-P450 2C9 is considered to catalyse the 4-hydroxylation of the nonsteroidal analgesic drug diclofenac and the hydroxylation of S-ibuprofen in humans. There are two variants of Cyp2C9. Their impact on diclofenac/ ibuprofen pharmacokinetics and on the inhibition of cyclooxygenases 1 and 2 was studied in 21 healthy volunteers with all combinations of the Cyp2C9 variants *2 and *3. Blood concentrations of diclofenac/ racemic ibuprofen (and of S-ibuprofen and R-ibuprofen) were measured by HPLC. Thromboxane B2 and prostaglandin E2 were measured with use of an enzyme immunoassay. There was no evidence of impaired metabolism of diclofenac in heterozygous and homozygous carriers of the Cyp2C9 alleles *2 and *3 compared to the wildtype. Furthermore, plasma concentrations of the metabolite 4-OH-diclofenac were not lower in carriers of Cyp2C9*2 and *3. Marked diclofenac ...

The use of herbs to treat illnesses was common in all historical eras. Furthermore, many modern drugs have natural origins, and this point of view is pursued and stressed for commercial purposes in any fields of treatment. A plethora of dietary supplements, phytotherapeutics and homeopathic substances are nowadays easy to buy and, for this reason, the thought that natural is equal to safe is becoming widespread among the population. Anyhow, all the substances we take herbs or food, are drugs and thus could cause adverse effects as direct toxicity (e.g. use of foxglove, even a rare case of belladonna berries misidentified as juniper berries) or interaction with other substances. In the latter case, many foods, herbs and spices have already proved to alter co-administered drugs pharmacokinetics and/or pharmacodynamics. The results range from a reduced drug activity to the onset of drug-mediated side effects, thus potentially hampering the efficacy of pharmacological therapy.. ...

Aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALA synthase, ALAS, or delta-aminolevulinic acid synthase) is an enzyme (EC 2.3.1.37) that catalyzes the synthesis of D-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) the first common precursor in the biosynthesis of all tetrapyrroles such as hemes, cobalamins and chlorophylls. The reaction is as follows: succinyl-CoA + glycine ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } δ-aminolevulinic acid + CoA + CO2 This enzyme is expressed in all non-plant eukaryotes and the α-class of proteobacteria. Other organisms produce ALA through a three enzyme pathway known as the Shemin pathway. ALA is synthesized through the condensation of glycine and succinyl-CoA. In humans, transcription of ALA synthase is tightly controlled by the presence of Fe2+-binding elements, to prevent accumulation of porphyrin intermediates in the absence of iron. There are two forms of ALA synthase in the body. One form is expressed in red blood cell precursor cells (ALAS2), whereas the other (ALAS1) is ubiquitously expressed ...

Several xenobiotics caused hepatic porphyrin accumulation through mechanism-based inactivation of cytochrome P450(P450) and heme alkylation. Loss of iron from the alkylated heme results in formation of an N-alkylporphyrin, which is a potent inhibitor of ferrochelatase. N-Vinylprotoporphyrin IX (N-vinylPP) was identified in chick embryo liver after in ovo administration of 3-[(arylthio)ethyl]sydnone (TTMS). Pretreatment of chick embryos with beta-naphthoflavone, which causes a 90-fold increase in P450 1A levels, did not increase the formation of N-vinylPP after TTMS administration, showing that the heme moiety of P450 1A does not contribute to the formation of N-vinylPP. Increased amounts of N-vinylPP were isolated from dexamethasone-, phenobarbital-, and glutethimide-pretreated chick embryos, and it is possible that P450 2H and/or a P450 3A-like isozyme contributes to the formation of N-vinylPP. The ring B-substituted (NB) regioisomer of N-vinylPP constituted the lowest percentage of the total ...

R-H + 1/2 O2 -----, R- OH. Such reactions are imperative for the elimination of harmful hydrophobic compounds such as steroid precursors and pesticides. This reaction is of great interest to many industries, in particular the petroleum industry, which produces thousands of tons of alkanes per annum. These industries have a limited usage for alkanes and they are therefore compounds of low value. Thus, companies like Sasol are interested in the partial oxidation of alkanes , which will produce fine chemicals of high value such as alcohols, ketones and aldehydes.. Intensive research has been undertaken during the past few decades using synthetic iron porphyrins as models of the Cytochrome-P450 enzymes. A large amount of success has been achieved using porphyrins with good turnover rates, yields and selectivity on an industrial scale. Phthalocyanines have the same chemical behaviour as the naturally occurring porphyrins, with an added advantage of stability and ease of production. We plan to study ...
