Chronic < em > Toxoplasma < /em > infection affects gene expression of drug-metabolizing enzymes in mouse liver
Xenobiotica. 2023 Nov 22:1-11. doi: 10.1080/00498254.2023.2286597. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTToxoplasma gondii is an intracellular protozoan parasite causing toxoplasmosis, an infectious disease affecting warm-blooded vertebrates worldwide. Many drug-metabolizing enzymes are located in the liver, a major organ of drug metabolism, and their function can be affected by pathogen infection.Using next-generation sequencing (RNA-seq) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), changes in the hepatic expressions of drug-metabolizing enzymes were analyzed in mice chronically infected with T. gondii. The analysis found t...

Population pharmacokinetics of mycophenolic acid and dose optimization in adult Chinese kidney transplant recipients
This study aimed to establish a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model of mycophenolic acid (MPA), quantify the effect of clinical factors and pharmacogenomics of MPA, and optimize the dosage for adult kidney transplant recipients.2. One-hundred and four adult renal transplant patients were enrolled. The PPK model was established using the Phoenix® NMLE software and the stepwise methods were filtered for significant covariates. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to optimize the dosage regimen.3. A two-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination (including lag time) provided a more accurate descriptio...

Investigation of pharmacokinetic properties of a PEGylated bilirubin nanoparticle in male Sprague-Dawley rats using liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry
Xenobiotica. 2023 Nov 16:1-36. doi: 10.1080/00498254.2023.2284859. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPolyethylene glycol (PEG) was introduced into synthetic bilirubin 3α and a PEGylated bilirubin 3α nanoparticle (BX-001N, Brixelle®) was developed for the first time.An in vitro microsomal stability study, in vivo PK studies with intravenous bolus (IV) and subcutaneous injection (SC), and a semi-mass balance study of BX-001N were investigated to evaluate its pharmacokinetic (PK) properties in male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats using developed liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-qTOF/MS).Following ...

Study on the transport and internalization mechanism of dietary supplement nattokinase in the small intestine using animal and Caco-2 cell monolayer models
This study first evaluated the preventive effect of supplementing low dose (4000 FU (Fibrin Unit)/kg, n = 6), medium dose (8000 FU/kg, n = 6), and high dose (12000 FU/kg, n = 6) of nattokinase on carrageenan induced thrombosis in mice. Subsequently, we used the rat gut sac model, ligated intestinal loop model, and Caco-2 cell uptake model to study the intestinal transport mechanism of NK.4. Results indicate that NK is a moderately absorbed biomolecule whose transport through enterocytes is energy- and time-dependent. Chlorpromazine, nystatin and EIPA all inhibited the endocytosis of NK to varying degrees, indicating that t...
