Abstract
This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the effects on the clinical signs of poisoning and adverse effects of intravenous lipid emulsion treatment in 82 animals (dogs and cats) with suspected poisonings over 18 months. Physical examination parameters and state of consciousness were documented every hour after the intravenous administration of a bolus of 2 ml/kg and 0.25 ml/kg/min over 60 minutes of a 20% intravenous lipid emulsion. The modified Glasgow coma scale and laboratory findings (blood gas analysis, triglyceride, lactate) were evaluated initially and three hours after discontinuing intravenous lipid emulsion administration. A statistical evaluation of the occurrence of adverse effects and the development of laboratory values was performed. A decrease in respiratory rate in the second control (8-12 hours) after ILE was observed. Three hours after completing of the intravenous lipid emulsion, triglyceride concentration increased about 10 times (p <0.001). Venous carbon dioxide partial pressure, bicarbonate, base excess, as well as the electrolytes sodium, potassium and ionized calcium decreased significantly (p <0.001). Patients who experienced a worsening of the modified Glasgow coma scale had a higher increase in triglyceride concentrations (p = 0.041) and plasma lactate (p = 0.034) and a larger decrease in bicarbonate concentrations (p = 0.053) compared to others. About 54% (n = 44) of the patients showed adverse effects which could be attributed to the administration of intravenous lipid emulsion and may be associated with a higher triglyceride increase. All of them were completely reversible within 33 hours. Adverse effects associated with intravenous lipid emulsion therapy were observed in half of the patients and were associated with a higher increase in triglycerides.

Capillary electrokinetic chromatography for studying interactions between β-blockers and Intralipid emulsion. J Pharm Biomed Anal 2023; 234:115554.

Abstract
Toxicity of β-blockers is one of the most common causes of poison-induced cardiogenic shock throughout the world. Therefore, methodologies for in vivo removal of the drugs from the body have been under investigation. Intralipid emulsion (ILE) is a common commercial lipid emulsion used for parenteral nutrition, but it has also been administered to patients suffering from drug toxicities. In this work, a set of β-blockers of different hydrophobicity's (log KD values ranging from 0.16 to 3.8) were investigated. The relative strength of the interactions between these compounds and the ILE was quantitatively assessed by means of binding constants and adsorption constants of the formed β-blocker-ILE complexes. The binding constants were determined by capillary electrokinetic chromatography and the adsorption constants were calculated based on different adsorption isotherms. Expectedly, the binding constants were strongly related to the log KD values of the β-blockers. The binding and adsorption constants also show that less hydrophobic β-blockers interact with ILE, suggesting that this emulsion could be useful for capturing such compounds in cases of their overdoses. Thus, the use of ILE for treatment of toxicities caused by a larger range of β-blockers is worth further investigation.

Abstract
β-Blockers belong to a frequently used class of drugs primarily used to treat heart and circulatory conditions. Here we describe the use of lipid vesicles and liposomes as cell membrane biomimicking models in capillary electromigration (CE) and liquid chromatography (LC) techniques for the investigation of interactions between lipid membranes and β-blockers. In addition to liposomes, the use of commercial intravenous lipid emulsions, and their interactions with β-blockers are also discussed. Different CE and LC instrumental techniques designed for these purposes are introduced. Other methodologies for studying interactions between β-blockers and lipid membranes are also briefly discussed, and the different methodologies are compared. The aim is to give the reader a good overview on the status of the use of liposomes and lipids in CE and LC for studying β-blocker interactions.

Abstract
Biodetoxification using intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) in acute poisoning is of growing interest. As well as for local anesthetics, ILE is currently used to reverse toxicity caused by a broad-spectrum of lipophilic drugs. Both pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic mechanisms have been postulated to explain its possible benefits, mainly combining a scavenging effect called "lipid sink" and cardiotonic activity. Additional mechanisms based on ILE-attributed vasoactive and cytoprotective properties are still under investigation. Here, we present a narrative review on lipid resuscitation, focusing on the recent literature with advances in understanding ILE-attributed mechanisms of action and evaluating the evidence supporting ILE administration that enabled the international recommendations. Many practical aspects are still controversial, including the optimal dose, the optimal administration timing, and the optimal duration of infusion for clinical efficacy, as well as the threshold dose for adverse effects. Present evidence supports the use of ILE as first-line therapy to reverse local anesthetic-related systemic toxicity and as adjunct therapy in lipophilic non-local anesthetic drug overdoses refractory to well-established antidotes and supportive care. However, the level of evidence is low to very low, as for most other commonly used antidotes. Our review presents the internationally accepted recommendations according to the clinical poisoning scenario and provides the precautions of use to optimize the expected efficacy of ILE and limit the inconveniences of its futile administration. Based on their absorptive properties, the next generation of scavenging agents is additionally presented. Although emerging research shows great potential, several challenges need to be overcome before parenteral detoxifying agents could be considered as an established treatment for severe poisonings.

Abstract
Profiling of lipid-water partition coefficients (KL/W ) of drugs is an essential issue during the early stage of drug development. In this study, two liposomes, including 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DSPC) + cholesterol (Chol) (DSPC/Chol liposomes) and soybean lecithin (SPC) + Chol (SPC/Chol liposomes), were prepared for the liposome electrokinetic chromatography (LEKC) analysis, and the logarithm of lipid-water partition coefficients (log KL/W ) of neutral and ionic drugs were determined based on an iterative method. The log KL/W values determined by the SPC/Chol or DSPC/Chol liposomes LEKC were linearly fitted, which showed a good fitting coefficient (R2 = 0.89). Furthermore, the linear relationship between the data obtained from LEKC system and octanol-water system, immobilized artificial membrane, Caco-2 cell model, and software prediction was analyzed, respectively. Results illustrated that DSPC/Chol liposomes or SPC/Chol liposomes had a good linear relationship with Caco-2 cell model, and R2 was 0.81 and 0.72, respectively. Moreover, the linear free energy relationship analysis suggested that the solute volume, hydrogen bond basicity, and J- were the main descriptors that drove the partition process of solutes in the SPC/Chol or DSPC/Chol LEKC system. In addition, the normalized properties of the SPC/Chol and DSPC/Chol LEKC systems through linear free energy relationship analysis were very close. In short, DSPC/Chol liposomes are more suitable for simulating cell membranes than SPC/Chol liposomes, and the developed LEKC is an effective partitioning model for measuring the log KL/W of drugs.

Superior Efficacy of Lipid Emulsion Infusion Over Serum Alkalinization in Reversing Amitriptyline-Induced Cardiotoxicity in Guinea Pig. Anesth Analg 2019; 126:1159-1169.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) are a major cause of fatal drug poisoning due to their cardiotoxicity. Alkalinization by sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) administration, the first-line therapy for TCA-induced cardiotoxicity, can occasionally yield insufficient efficacy in severe cases. Because most TCAs are highly lipophilic, lipid emulsion may be more effective than alkalinization. However, it remains to be determined whether lipid emulsion is more beneficial than alkalinization in reversing amitriptyline-induced cardiotoxicity. METHODS Hemodynamic variables were recorded from in vivo guinea pig models and Langendorff-perfused hearts. Whole-cell patch-clamp experiments were conducted on enzymatically isolated ventricular cardiomyocytes to record fast sodium currents (INa). Lipid solutions were prepared using 20% Intralipid. The pH of the alkaline solution was set at 7.55. We assessed the effect of lipid emulsion on reversing amitriptyline-induced cardiotoxicity, in vivo and in vitro, compared to alkalinization. The data were evaluated by Student t test, 1-way repeated-measures analysis of variance, or analysis of covariance (covariate = amitriptyline concentration); we considered data statistically significant when P < .05. RESULTS In the in vivo model, intervention with lipids significantly reversed the amitriptyline-induced depression of mean arterial pressure and prolongation of QRS duration on electrocardiogram more than alkalinization (mean arterial pressure, mean difference [95% confidence interval]: 19.0 mm Hg [8.5-29.4]; QRS duration, mean difference [95% confidence interval] -12.0 milliseconds [-16.1 to -7.8]). In the Langendorff experiments, perfusion with 1% and 2% lipid solutions demonstrated significant recovery in left ventricular developed pressure (LVdevP), maximum change rate of increase of LVdevP (dP/dtmax) and rate-pressure product compared with alkaline solution (LVdevP [mm Hg], alkaline 57 ± 35, 1% lipid 94 ± 12, 2% lipid 110 ± 14; dP/dtmax [mm Hg/s], alkaline 748 ± 441, 1% lipid 1502 ± 334, 2% lipid 1753 ± 389; rate-pressure product [mm Hg·beats·minute], alkaline 11,214 ± 8272, 1% lipid 19,025 ± 8427, 2% lipid 25,261 ± 4803 with analysis of covariance). Furthermore, lipid solutions (0.5%-4%) resulted in greater recovery of hemodynamic parameters at 3 μM amitriptyline. Amitriptyline inhibited INa in a dose-dependent manner: the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was 0.39 μM. The IC50 increased to 0.75 μM in the alkaline solution, 3.2 μM in 1% lipid solution, and 6.1 μM in 2% lipid solution. Furthermore, the lipid solution attenuated the use-dependent block of sodium channels by amitriptyline more than alkaline solution. On 30 consecutive pulses at 1 Hz, the current decreased to 50.1 ± 2.1, 60.3 ± 1.9, and 90.4% ± 1.8% in standard, alkaline, and 1% lipid solution, respectively. Even 0.5% lipid solution showed greater effects than the alkaline solution in all experiments. CONCLUSIONS Lipid emulsion significantly suppressed amitriptyline-induced INa, inhibition, which was likely related to the marked improvement in hemodynamic status observed in vivo and in isolated perfused hearts. These results suggest the superiority of lipid emulsion as the first-line therapy for TCA-induced cardiotoxicity compared to alkalinization therapy.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess what properties of the pseudostationary phases in electrokinetic capillary chromatography affect the interactions between monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) and hydrophilically modified structural analogues thereof with various lipophilic phases. MMAE is a widely used cytotoxic agent in antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), which are used as selective biopharmaceutical drugs in the treatment of cancers. MMAE and its derivatives are highly lipophilic, yet they fail to interact with biomimicking phosphatidylcholine-phosphatidylserine liposomes. To reveal what properties affect the interaction of the auristatin derivatives with cell plasma membrane-mimicking vesicles, capillary electrokinetic chromatography was used with four different types of micellar and vesicular pseudostationary phases: pure vesicles, mixed vesicles, mixed micelles, and pure micelles. Vesicular phases were composed of pure phospholipids [dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dilauroylphosphatidylcholine (DLPC)] and phospholipid-surfactant mixtures [sodium dodecyl sulfate, (SDS) with DMPC and DLPC] while the micellar phases comprised pure surfactant (SDS) and surfactant-phospholipid mixtures (SDS-DMPC and SDS-DLPC). In addition, differential scanning calorimetry and dynamic light scattering were used to monitor the aggregate composition. Our data shows that the interaction between hydrophobic auristatin derivatives and hydrophobic pseudostationary phases critically depends on the type, size, and hydrogen bonding capability of the pseudostationary phases.

Abstract
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are promising state-of-the-art biopharmaceutical drugs for selective drug-delivery applications and the treatment of diseases such as cancer. The idea behind the ADC technology is remarkable as it combines the highly selective targeting capacity of monoclonal antibodies with the cancer-killing ability of potent cytotoxic agents. The continuous development of improved ADCs requires systematic studies on the nature and effects of warhead modification. Recently, we focused on the hydrophilic modification of monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), the most widely used cytotoxic agent in current clinical trial ADCs. Herein, we report on the use of micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) for studying the hydrophobic character of modified MMAE derivatives. Our data reveal a connection between the hydrophobicity of the modified warheads as free molecules and their cytotoxic activity. In addition, MMAE-trastuzumab ADCs were constructed and evaluated in preliminary cytotoxic assays.

Abstract
The experimental use of lipid emulsion for local anesthetic toxicity was originally identified in 1998. It was then translated to clinical practice in 2006 and expanded to drugs other than local anesthetics in 2008. Our understanding of lipid resuscitation therapy has progressed considerably since the previous update from the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, and the scientific evidence has coalesced around specific discrete mechanisms. Intravenous lipid emulsion therapy provides a multimodal resuscitation benefit that includes both scavenging (eg, the lipid shuttle) and nonscavenging components. The intravascular lipid compartment scavenges drug from organs susceptible to toxicity and accelerates redistribution to organs where drug (eg, bupivacaine) is stored, detoxified, and later excreted. In addition, lipid exerts nonscavenging effects that include postconditioning (via activation of prosurvival kinases) along with cardiotonic and vasoconstrictive benefits. These effects protect tissue from ischemic damage and increase tissue perfusion during recovery from toxicity. Other mechanisms have diminished in favor based on lack of evidence; these include direct effects on channel currents (eg, calcium) and mass-effect overpowering a block in mitochondrial metabolism. In this narrative review, we discuss these proposed mechanisms and address questions left to answer in the field. Further work is needed, but the field has made considerable strides towards understanding the mechanisms.

Abstract
Objective The objective of this study was to describe a case of severe lamotrigine toxicosis in a dog, which was successfully treated using minimal medical interventions. Case summary A 7-month-old male, intact, Labrador mix was evaluated because of acute onset of vomiting, rigidity, and dull mentation after ingesting lamotrigine tablets. The estimated oral dose that had been ingested was 278 mg/kg (611.6 mg/lb). Physical examination was unremarkable other than abnormalities noted in the cardiovascular and neurological systems. Neurological examination revealed dull mentation, vertical nystagmus, four-legged extensor limb rigidity, and alligator rolling. Cardiovascular examination revealed pale pink mucous membranes and multifocal ventricular tachycardia. Intravenous (IV) fluids were started at three times maintenance (180 mL/kg/day). Methocarbamol (100 mg/kg [220 mg/lb], rectally) and lidocaine (2 mg/kg [4.4 mg/lb, IV]) were administered. Twenty-four and seventy-two hours after presentation, the dog was clinically normal with no ventricular tachycardia being noted. Conclusion Lamotrigine (6-[2,3-dichlorophenyl]-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-diamine) is an anticonvulsant medication used in humans, which inhibits voltage-gated sodium channels. The clinical success of this case suggests that administration of only methocarbamol for the neurologic effects and lidocaine for the arrhythmias, as well as supportive IV fluid therapy, could be a successful treatment strategy for dogs, even with severe lamotrigine toxicosis.

Abstract
Liposomes were used as biomimetic models in capillary electrokinetic chromatography (EKC) for the determination of distribution constants (KD) of certain local anesthetics and a commonly used preservative. Synthetic liposomes comprised phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylglycerol phospholipids with and without cholesterol. In addition, ghost liposomes made from red blood cell (RBC) lipid extracts were used as pseudostationary phase to acquire information on how the liposome composition affects the interactions between anesthetics and liposomes. These results were compared with theoretical distribution coefficients at pH 7.4. In addition to 25°C, the distribution constants were determined at 37 and 42°C to simulate physiological conditions. Moreover, the usability of five electroosmotic flow markers in liposome (LEKC) and micellar EKC (MEKC) was studied. LEKC was proven to be a convenient and fast technique for obtaining data about the distribution constants of local anesthetics between liposome and aqueous phase. RBC liposomes can be utilized for more representative model of cellular membranes, and the results indicate that the distribution constants of the anesthetics are greatly dependent on the used liposome composition and the amount of cholesterol, while the effect of temperature on the distribution constants is less significant.

Abstract
Triglyceride micro-emulsions such as Intralipid® have been used to reverse cardiac toxicity induced by a number of drugs but reservations about their broad-spectrum applicability remain because of the poorly understood mechanism of action. Herein we report an integrated mechanism of reversal of bupivacaine toxicity that includes both transient drug scavenging and a cardiotonic effect that couple to accelerate movement of the toxin away from sites of toxicity. We thus propose a multi-modal therapeutic paradigm for colloidal bio-detoxification whereby a micro-emulsion both improves cardiac output and rapidly ferries the drug away from organs subject to toxicity. In vivo and in silico models of toxicity were combined to test the contribution of individual mechanisms and reveal the multi-modal role played by the cardiotonic and scavenging actions of the triglyceride suspension. These results suggest a method to predict which drug toxicities are most amenable to treatment and inform the design of next-generation therapeutics for drug overdose.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent publications have questioned the validity of the "lipid sink" theory of lipid resuscitation while others have identified sink-independent effects and posed alternative mechanisms such as hemodilution. To address these issues, the authors tested the dose-dependent response to intravenous lipid emulsion during reversal of bupivacaine-induced cardiovascular toxicity in vivo. Subsequently, the authors modeled the relative contribution of volume resuscitation, drug sequestration, inotropy and combined drug sequestration, and inotropy to this response with the use of an in silico model. METHODS Rats were surgically prepared to monitor cardiovascular metrics and deliver drugs. After catheterization and instrumentation, animals received a nonlethal dose of bupivacaine to produce transient cardiovascular toxicity, then were randomized to receive one of the four treatments: 30% intravenous lipid emulsion, 20% intravenous lipid emulsion, intravenous saline, or no treatment (n = 7 per condition; 28 total animals). Recovery responses were compared with the predictions of a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model parameterized using previously published laboratory data. RESULTS Rats treated with lipid emulsions recovered faster than did rats treated with saline or no treatment. Intravenous lipid emulsion of 30% elicited the fastest hemodynamic recovery followed in order by 20% intravenous lipid emulsion, saline, and no treatment. An increase in arterial blood pressure underlay the recovery in both lipid emulsion-treated groups. Heart rates remained depressed in all four groups throughout the observation period. Model predictions mirrored the experimental recovery, and the model that combined volume, sequestration, and inotropy predicted in vivo results most accurately. CONCLUSION Intravenous lipid emulsion accelerates cardiovascular recovery from bupivacaine toxicity in a dose-dependent manner, which is driven by a cardiotonic response that complements the previously reported sequestration effect.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Cardiovascular resuscitation upon intoxication with lipophilic ion channel–blocking agents has proven most difficult. Recently, favorable results have been reported when lipid rescue therapy is performed, i.e., the infusion of a triglyceride-rich lipid emulsion during resuscitation. However, the mechanism of action is poorly understood.
Methods:
The authors investigate the effects of a clinically used lipid emulsion (Lipovenös® MCT 20%; Fresenius Kabi AG, Bad Homburg, Germany) on the block of the fast Na+ current (INa) induced by the lipophilic local anesthetic bupivacaine in adult rat left ventricular myocytes by using the whole cell patch clamp technique.
Results:
Bupivacaine at 10 µm decreased INa by 54% (−19.3 ± 1.9 pApF−1vs. −42.3 ± 4.3 pApF−1; n = 17; P < 0.001; VPip = −40 mV, 1 Hz). Addition of 10% lipid emulsion in the presence of bupivacaine produced a 37% increase in INa (−26.4 ± 2.8 pApF−1; n = 17; P < 0.001 vs. bupivacaine alone). To test whether these results could be explained by a reduction in the free bupivacaine concentration by the lipid (lipid-sink effect), the authors removed the lipid phase from the bupivacaine–lipid mixture by ultracentrifugation. Also, the resulting water phase led to an increase in INa (+19%; n = 17; P < 0.001 vs. bupivacaine), demonstrating that part of the bupivacaine had been removed during ultracentrifugation. The substantially less lipophilic mepivacaine (40 µm) reduced INa by 27% (n = 24; P < 0.001). The mepivacaine–lipid mixture caused a significant increase in INa (+17%; n = 24; P < 0.001). For mepivacaine, only a small lipid-sink effect could be demonstrated (+8%; n = 23; P < 0.01), reflecting its poor lipid solubility.
Conclusion:
The authors demonstrate lipid rescue on the single-cell level and provide evidence for a lipid-sink mechanism.

Abstract
Lipid emulsions are used in the reversal of local anesthetic toxicity. The aim of this study was to investigate the cellular electrophysiological effects of long-chain triglyceride lipid emulsion (LCTE) on cardiac action potential characteristics and conduction disturbances induced by bupivacaine. Purkinje fibers were dissected from the left ventricle of New Zealand white rabbit hearts and superfused with either Tyrode's solution during 30 min (control group), with bupivacaine 10(-6) M, 10(-5) M, and 5.10(-5) M alone, or in the presence of LCTE 0.5%, in addition, LCTE at 0.1%, 0.5%, and 1% was perfused alone. Electrophysiological parameters were recorded using the conventional microelectrode technique (37 °C, 1 Hz frequency). Bupivacaine 5.10(-5) M-induced conduction blocks (8/8 preparations): LCTE 0.5% suppressed the bupivacaine 5.10(-5) M-induced conduction blocks (1/8 preparations). Exposure to bupivacaine 10(-6) M, 10(-5) M, and 5.10(-5) M resulted in a significant decrease in the maximal rate of depolarization (Vmax) (respectively, 25%, 55%, 75%; P < 0.002 vs. control group). In the presence of LCTE 0.5%, bupivacaine 10(-6) M did not significantly decreased Vmax (13%; P = 0.10 vs. control group). The decrease in Vmax resulting from bupivacaine 10(-5) M alone was significantly less in the presence of LCTE 0.5% (P < 0.01 vs. bupivacaine 10(-5) M alone). Exposure to bupivacaine 10(-6) M, 10(-5) M, and 5.10(-5) M alone or in the presence of LCTE 0.5% resulted in a significant decrease in action potential duration measured at 50% and 90% repolarization (APD50 and APD90; P < 0.01 vs. control group). LCTE inhibited the Purkinje fibers conduction blocks induced by bupivacaine. Moreover, LCTE 0.5% attenuates the decrease in Vmax induced by bupivacaine 10(-6) M and 10(-5) M.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In vitro observations support the lipid sink theory of therapeutic action by confirming the capacity of lipid emulsions to successfully uptake bupivacaine from aqueous media. However, competing hypotheses and some in/ex vivo small animal studies suggest that a metabolic or positive inotropic effect underlies the dramatic effects of lipid therapy. Controlled clinical tests to establish causality and mechanism of action are an impossibility. In an effort to quantitatively probe the merits of a "sink" mechanism, a physiologically based pharmacokinetic model has been developed that considers the binding action of plasma lipid. METHODS The model includes no fitting parameters and accounts for concentration dependence of plasma protein and lipid:anesthetic binding as well as the metabolism of the lipid scavenger. Predicted pharmacokinetics were validated by comparison with data from healthy volunteers administered a nontoxic dose of bupivacaine. The model was augmented to simulate lipid therapy and extended to the case of accidental IV infusion of bupivacaine at levels known to cause systemic toxicity. RESULTS The model yielded quantitative agreement with available pharmacokinetic data. Simulated lipid infusion following an IV overdose was predicted to yield (1) an increase in total plasma concentration, (2) a decrease in unbound concentration, and (3) a decrease in tissue content of bupivacaine. CONCLUSIONS Results suggest that the timescale on which tissue content is reduced varies from organ to organ, with the concentration in the heart falling by 11% within 3 min. This initial study suggests that, in isolation, the lipid sink is insufficient to guarantee a reversal of systemic toxicity.

Abstract
Intravenous lipid emulsion is a recommended treatment for local anesthetic intoxication. The lipid sink theory hypothesizes that the mechanism behind the lipid treatment is the entrapment of toxic drugs in plasma, preventing them from reaching target receptors. Lipid sink treatment has also been used as a last refuge treatment for severe tricyclic antidepressant intoxication with seemingly beneficial results. We selected three drugs, i.e. amiodarone, ketamine, and amitriptyline, that can cause severe intoxication and compared their interactions with two commercial fat emulsions (Intralipid® and ClinOleic®) and one synthetic liposome (80:20 mol% phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylglycerol) dispersion. The interaction studies were carried out by capillary electrokinetic chromatography and the retention factors and distributions constants of the drugs were calculated. The results demonstrate that there is stronger interaction between the drugs and the synthetic liposome dispersion than with the commercial emulsions.

Abstract
Intravenous lipid emulsion is recommended as treatment for local anesthetic intoxication based on the hypothesis that the lipophilic drug is entrapped by the lipid phase created in plasma. We compared a 15.6 mM 80/20 mol% phosphatidyl choline (PC)/phosphatidyl glycerol (PG)-based liposome dispersion with the commercially available Intralipid® emulsion in a pig model of local anesthetic intoxication. Bupivacaine-lipid interactions were studied by electrokinetic capillary chromatography. Multilamellar vesicles were used in the first in vivo experiment series. This series was interrupted when the liposome dispersion was discovered to cause cardiovascular collapse. The toxicity was decreased by an optimized sonication of the 50% diluted liposome dispersion (7.8 mM). Twenty anesthetized pigs were then infused with either sonicated PC/PG liposome dispersion or Intralipid®, following infusion of a toxic dose of bupivacaine which decreased the mean arterial pressure by 50% from baseline. Bupivacaine concentrations were quantified in blood samples using liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry. No significant difference in the context-sensitive plasma half-life of bupivacaine was detected (p=0.932). After 30 min of lipid infusion, the bupivacaine concentration was 8.2±1.5 mg/L in the PC/PG group and 7.8±1.8 mg/L in the Intralipid® group, with no difference between groups (p=0.591). No difference in hemodynamic recovery was detected between groups (p > 0.05).

Abstract
Intravenous lipid emulsion is the recommended treatment for severe local anaesthetic intoxication. Lipid emulsion may entrap lipid soluble drugs by functioning as a 'lipid sink', but its effect on bupivacaine pharmacokinetics remains unknown. In this randomised, double-blind, crossover study, eight healthy male volunteers were infused bupivacaine 0.5mg.kg(-1) intravenously over 20 min, followed by an infusion of either intravenous lipid emulsion or Hartmann's solution for 30 min. At 20 and 30 min after the start of the infusion, the total plasma bupivacaine concentration was lower while receiving lipid emulsion than Hartmann's solution (mean difference 111 (95% CI 55-167) μg.l(-1) and 75 (95% CI 26-124 μg.l(-1) at 20 and 30 min, respectively; p<0.02). However, there were no differences in un-entrapped (non-lipid bound) or free (non-protein bound) bupivacaine plasma concentrations during the infusion. Intravenous lipid emulsion infusion reduced the context-sensitive half-life of total plasma bupivacaine from 45 (95% CI 32-76)min to 25 (95% CI 20-33)min; p=0.01. We observed no significant adverse effects of lipid emulsion. In conclusion, lipid emulsion may slightly increase the rate of bupivacaine tissue distribution. No 'lipid sink' effect was observed with the non-toxic dose of bupivacaine used.

Abstract
To provide further evidence for the lipid sink theory, we have developed an in vitro model to assess the effect of Intralipid® 20% on methaemoglobin formation by drugs of varying lipid solubility. Progressively increasing Intralipid concentrations from 4 to 24 mg.ml⁻¹ suppressed methaemoglobin formation by the lipid soluble drug glyceryl trinitrate in a dose-dependent manner (p < 0.001). Both dose and timing of administration of Intralipid to blood previously incubated with glyceryl trinitrate for 10 and 40 min resulted in significant suppression of methaemoglobin formation (p < 0.0001 and p < 0.05, respectively). Mathematical modelling demonstrated that the entire process of methaemoglobin formation by glyceryl trinitrate was slowed down in the presence of Intralipid. Intralipid did not significantly suppress methaemoglobin formation induced by 2-amino-5-hydroxytoluene (partially lipid soluble) or sodium nitrite (lipid insoluble; both p > 0.5). This work may assist determination of the suitability of drugs taken in overdose for which Intralipid might be deployed.
