Abstract
Understanding cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes in the canine intestine is vital for predicting drug metabolism and developing safer oral medications. This study evaluates canine colonoids as a model to assess the expression and induction of essential intestinal CYP enzymes.Canine colonoids were cultured in expansion medium (EM) with Wnt-3A and in differentiation medium (DM) without Wnt-3A. We assessed the mRNA expression of CYP2B11, CYP2C21, CYP3A12, and CYP3A98 using qPCR and examined the effects of rifampicin and phenobarbital as inducers.Our findings show that DM significantly increased the mRNA expression of CYP3A98 and CYP2B11, but not CYP3A12, compared to EM. CYP2C21, not typically expressed in the intestine, remained unexpressed in colonoids. Rifampicin induced CYP3A98, aligning with pregnane x receptor (PXR) regulation, while phenobarbital did not, suggesting no constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) involvement. CYP2B11 did not respond to either inducer, suggesting alternative regulatory pathways in canine colonoids.This study is a pioneering effort to establish conditions for studying P450 expression in canine colonoids, confirming significant CYP3A98 expression in the canine intestine. It demonstrated colonoids can induce CYP activity post drug treatments. Further research is needed to enhance species-specific drug metabolism understanding and validate this model for broader applications.

Abstract
Drug oxidations are mediated mainly by cytochromes P450 (P450s or CYPs). CYP3As are an important P450 subfamily and include liver-specific CYP3A12 and intestine-specific CYP3A98 in dogs. Individual differences in drug oxidation activities were investigated, including correlations with immunoreactive CYP3A protein intensities and CYP3A mRNA expression levels in liver microsomes.Pooled and individual dog liver microsomes showed activities toward nifedipine, midazolam, alprazolam, and estradiol, but the levels of catalytic activities varied approximately twofold among the individual dogs. One dog harbored a CYP1A2 variant causing protein deletion, but showed higher activities than the other dogs toward nifedipine oxidation, midazolam 1'-hydroxylation, alprazolam 4-hydroxylation, estradiol 16α-hydroxylation activities, and caffeine C8-hydroxylation; the latter is used as a reference reaction for CYP1A.In individual dog liver microsomes, the intensities of the immunochemical bands with anti-human CYP3A4 and anti-rat CYP3A2 antibodies along with CYP3A12 and CYP3A26 mRNA expression levels showed good correlations (p < 0.05) with nifedipine oxidation, midazolam 1'- and 4-hydroxylation, alprazolam 1'- and 4-hydroxylation, and estradiol 16α-hydroxylation activities.These results suggest that the oxidation activities of dog liver microsomes toward nifedipine and other typical CYP3A-catalyzed drugs exhibit approximately twofold individual differences and were predominantly mediated by liver-specific CYP3A12 in the dogs.

[PMID: 36516908 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2022.116009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2022] [Revised: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/30/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Aconite (Fuzi, FZ), the processed root tuber of Aconitum carmichaelii Debx., is utilized as a classic medicine to treat diseases of the cardiovascular system and immune system. Resulting from the narrow margin of safety between a therapeutic dose and a toxic dose, FZ often causes cardiotoxicity including hypotension, palpitation, and bradycardia. Contributing to the detoxification effects of the other famous herbal medicine ginseng (Renshen, RS), which is the dried root and rhizome of Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer, people broadly combine FZ and RS as compatibility more than 1800 years to attenuate the toxicity of FZ. However, the systematic detoxification mechanisms of RS to FZ have not been fully revealed. AIM OF THE REVIEW Aiming to provide a comprehensive interpretation of the attenuation processes of FZ via RS, this review summarizes the up-to-date information about regulatory mechanisms of RS to FZ to shed the light on the essence of detoxification. MATERIALS AND METHODS Literature was searched in electronic databases, including PubMed, Web of Science ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, CNKI and WanFang Data. Relevant studies on detoxification mechanisms were included while irrelevant and duplicate studies were excluded. According to the study design, subject, intervention regime, outcome, first author and year of publication of included data, detoxification mechanisms of RS to FZ were summarized and visualized. RESULTS A total of 144 studies were identified through databases from their inception up to Oct. 2022. Included information indicated that diester-diterpenoid alkaloids (DDAs) were the main toxic substances of FZ. The main mechanisms that RS attenuates the toxicity of FZ were transforming toxic compounds of FZ, affecting the absorption and metabolism of FZ as well as the FZ-induced cell toxicity alleviation. CONCLUSION FZ, as a famous traditional Chinese medicine, has good prospects for utilization. The narrow margin of safety between a therapeutic dose and a toxic dose of FZ limits its clinical effect and safety while RS is always combined with FZ to alleviate its toxicity. However, mechanisms responsible for the detoxification process have not been well identified. Therefore, detoxification mechanisms of RS to FZ are reviewed to ensure the safety and effectiveness of FZ.

Abstract
This review is a summary of factors affecting the drug pharmacokinetics (PK) of dogs versus humans. Identifying these interspecies differences can facilitate canine-human PK extrapolations while providing mechanistic insights into species-specific drug in vivo behavior. Such a cross-cutting perspective can be particularly useful when developing therapeutics targeting diseases shared between the two species such as cancer, diabetes, cognitive dysfunction, and inflammatory bowel disease. Furthermore, recognizing these differences also supports a reverse PK extrapolations from humans to dogs. To appreciate the canine-human differences that can affect drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination, this review provides a comparison of the physiology, drug transporter/enzyme location, abundance, activity, and specificity between dogs and humans. Supplemental material provides an in-depth discussion of certain topics, offering additional critical points to consider. Based upon an assessment of available state-of-the-art information, data gaps were identified. The hope is that this manuscript will encourage the research needed to support an understanding of similarities and differences in human versus canine drug PK.

Abstract
Mathematical models that can predict the kinetics of compounds have been increasingly adopted for drug development and risk assessment. Data for these models may be generated from in vitro experimental systems containing enzymes contributing to metabolic clearance, such as subcellular tissue fractions including microsomes and cytosol. Extrapolation from these systems is facilitated by common scaling factors, known as microsomal protein per gram (MPPG) and cytosolic protein per gram (CPPG). Historically, parameterization of MPPG and CPPG has employed the use of recovery factors, commonly benchmarked to cytochromes P450 which work well in some contexts, but could be problematic for other enzymes. Here, we propose absolute quantification of protein content and supplementary assays to evaluate microsomal/cytosolic purity that should be employed. Examples include calculation of microsomal latency by mannose-6-phosphatase activity and immunoblotting of subcellular fractions with fraction-specific markers. Further considerations include tissue source, as disease states can affect enzyme expression and activity, and the methodology used for scalar parameterization. Regional- and organ-specific expression of enzymes, in addition to differences in organ physiology, is another important consideration. Because most efforts have focused on the liver that is, for the most part, homogeneous, derived scalars may not capture the heterogeneity of other major tissues contributing to xenobiotic metabolism including the kidneys and small intestine. Better understanding of these scalars, and how to appropriately derive them from extrahepatic tissues can provide support to the inferences made with physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling, increase its accuracy in characterizing in vivo drug pharmacokinetics, and improve confidence in go-no-go decisions for clinical trials.

Abstract
Genotoxicity and carcinogenicity profiles of drugs occasionally vary across species due to species difference in drug metabolic profile. To clarify the effect of species differences in the metabolic profile on micronucleus induction, we conducted an in vitro micronucleus test for seven clastogens (benzo[a]pyrene: BaP, cyclophosphamide monohydrate: CPA coumarin, diclofenac, piroxicam, lansoprazole, and chlorpheniramine) with rat, mouse, monkey, dog, or human liver S9. BaP, CPA, coumarin, diclofenac, piroxicam, and lansoprazole induced micronucleus formation with all species of S9s, whereas chlorpheniramine did not induce micronucleus formation in any of the S9s. BaP and CPA revealed remarkable species differences in micronucleus induction, whereas coumarin, diclofenac, piroxicam, and lansoprazole did not present any differences. Interestingly, the amounts of hydroxy-BaP-epoxides and phosphamide mustard, which might be associated with micronucleus induction by BaP and CPA, respectively, were correlated with the degree of micronucleus induction among the five species. In conclusion, the species difference in micronucleus induction by BaP and CPA was attributable to the differences in the metabolic profiles of these drugs among species. Our results indicate that it is crucial to understand the effect of species differences in the metabolic profile of drug candidates on genotoxicity and carcinogenicity potential and to predict their risk in human.

Abstract
Dogs are commonly used in human and veterinary pharmaceutical development. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling using recombinant cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes requires accurate estimates of CYP abundance, particularly in liver. However, such estimates are currently available for only seven CYPs, which were determined in a limited number of livers from one dog breed (beagle). In this study, we used a label-free shotgun proteomics method to quantitate 11 CYPs (including four CYPs not previously measured), cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase, and cytochrome b5 in liver microsomes from 59 dogs representing four different breeds and mixed-breed dogs. Validation included showing correlation with CYP marker activities, immunoquantified protein, as well as CYP1A2 and CYP2C41 null allele genotypes. Abundance values largely agreed with those previously published. Average CYP abundance was highest (>120 pmol/mg protein) for CYP2D15 and CYP3A12; intermediate (40-89 pmol/mg) for CYP1A2, CYP2B11, CYP2E1, and CYP2C21; and lowest (<12 pmol/mg) for CYP2A13, CYP2A25, CYP2C41, CYP3A26, and CYP1A1. The CYP2C41 gene was detected in 12 of 58 (21%) livers. CYP2C41 protein abundance averaged 8.2 pmol/mg in those livers, and was highest (19 pmol/mg) in the only liver with two CYP2C41 gene copies. CYP1A2 protein was not detected in the only liver homozygous for the CYP1A2 stop codon mutation. Large breed-associated differences were observed for CYP2B11 (P < 0.0001; ANOVA) but not for other CYPs. Research hounds and Beagles had the highest CYP2B11 abundance; mixed-breed dogs and Chihuahua were intermediate; whereas greyhounds had the lowest abundance. These results provide the most comprehensive estimates to date of CYP abundance and variability in canine liver. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This work provides the most comprehensive quantitative analysis to date of the drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450 proteome in dogs that will serve as a valuable reference for physiologically based scaling and modeling used in drug development and research. This study also revealed high interindividual variation and dog breed-associated differences in drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450 expression that may be important for predicting drug disposition variability among a genetically diverse canine population.

Abstract
Cyclophosphamide (CP), a prodrug that is enzymatically converted to the cytotoxic 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide (4OHCP) by hepatic enzymes, is commonly used in both human and veterinary medicine to treat cancers and modulate the immune system. We investigated the metabolism of CP in humans, dogs, cats, and mice using liver microsomes; apparent K M, V max, and intrinsic clearance (V max/K M) parameters were estimated. The interspecies and intraspecies variations in kinetics were vast. Dog microsomes were, on average, 55-fold more efficient than human microsomes, 2.8-fold more efficient than cat microsomes, and 1.2-fold more efficient than mouse microsomes at catalyzing CP bioactivation. These differences translated to cell-based systems. Breast cancer cells exposed to 4OHCP via CP bioactivation by microsomes resulted in a stratification of cytotoxicity that was dependent on the species of microsomes measured by IC50: dog (31.65 μM), mouse (44.95 μM), cat (272.6 μM), and human (1857 μM). The contributions of cytochrome P450s, specifically, CYP2B, CYP2C, and CYP3A, to CP bioactivation were examined: CYP3A inhibition resulted in no change in 4OHCP formation; CYP2B inhibition slightly reduced 4OHCP in humans, cats, and mice; and CYP2C inhibition drastically reduced 4OHCP formation in each species. Semiphysiologic modeling of CP metabolism using scaled metabolic parameters resulted in simulated data that closely matched published pharmacokinetic profiles, determined by noncompartmental analysis. The results highlight differential CP metabolism delineated by species and demonstrate the importance of metabolism on CP clearance.

Abstract
Membrane transport proteins are fundamental components of blood-tissue barriers and affect the absorption, distribution and elimination, and interactions of many of the drugs commonly used in veterinary medicine. A quantitative, simultaneous measurement of these proteins across dog tissues is not currently available, nor is it possible with current immune-based assays such as western blot. In the present study, we aimed to develop a sensitive and specific liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) based quantitation method that can simultaneously quantitate 14 ATP-binding cassette transporters. We applied this method to a panel of normal canine tissues and compared the LC/MS/MS results with relative messenger RNA (mRNA) abundance using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Our LC/MS/MS method is sensitive, with lower limits of quantitation ranging from 5 to 10 fmol/μg of protein. We were able to detect and/or quantitate each of the 14 transporters in at least one normal dog tissue. Relative protein and mRNA abundance within tissues did not demonstrate a significant correlation in all cases. The results presented here will provide for more accurate predictions of drug movement in dogs through incorporation into physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models; the method described here has wide applicability to the quantitation of virtually any proteins of interest in biologic samples where validated canine antibodies do not exist.

Abstract
In vitro-in vivo extrapolation of drug metabolism data obtained in enriched preparations of subcellular fractions rely on robust estimates of physiologically relevant scaling factors for the prediction of clearance in vivo. The purpose of the current study was to measure the microsomal and cytosolic protein per gram of kidney (MPPGK and CPPGK) in dog and human kidney cortex using appropriate protein recovery marker and evaluate functional activity of human cortex microsomes. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) content and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) activity were used as microsomal protein markers, whereas glutathione-S-transferase activity was a cytosolic marker. Functional activity of human microsomal samples was assessed by measuring mycophenolic acid glucuronidation. MPPGK was 33.9 and 44.0 mg/g in dog kidney cortex, and 41.1 and 63.6 mg/g in dog liver (n = 17), using P450 content and G6Pase activity, respectively. No trends were noted between kidney, liver, and intestinal scalars from the same animals. Species differences were evident, as human MPPGK and CPPGK were 26.2 and 53.3 mg/g in kidney cortex (n = 38), respectively. MPPGK was 2-fold greater than the commonly used in vitro-in vivo extrapolation scalar; this difference was attributed mainly to tissue source (mixed kidney regions versus cortex). Robust human MPPGK and CPPGK scalars were measured for the first time. The work emphasized the importance of regional differences (cortex versus whole kidney–specific MPPGK, tissue weight, and blood flow) and a need to account for these to improve assessment of renal metabolic clearance and its extrapolation to in vivo.

Abstract
Intestinal metabolism can limit oral bioavailability of drugs and increase the risk of drug interactions. It is therefore important to be able to predict and quantify it in drug discovery and early development. In recent years, a plethora of models-in vivo, in situ and in vitro-have been discussed in the literature. The primary objective of this review is to summarize the current knowledge in the quantitative prediction of gut-wall metabolism. As well as discussing the successes of current models for intestinal metabolism, the challenges in the establishment of good preclinical models are highlighted, including species differences in the isoforms; regional abundances and activities of drug metabolizing enzymes; the interplay of enzyme-transporter proteins; and lack of knowledge on enzyme abundances and availability of empirical scaling factors. Due to its broad specificity and high abundance in the intestine, CYP3A is the enzyme that is frequently implicated in human gut metabolism and is therefore the major focus of this review. A strategy to assess the impact of gut wall metabolism on oral bioavailability during drug discovery and early development phases is presented. Current gaps in the mechanistic understanding and the prediction of gut metabolism are highlighted, with suggestions on how they can be overcome in the future.

Abstract
The dog CYP1A2 enzyme is likely an important contributor to the metabolism of veterinary drugs. Dog CYP1A2 is expressed in liver, plus it is inducible and polymorphic, creating the potential for intersubject differences in pharmacokinetics. Hence, the ability to probe dog CYP1A2 activity and inhibition is relevant toward veterinary drug development and drug-drug interaction assessment. Previous studies have relied on human probes with questionable specificity for CYP1A2, so it was hypothesized that recombinant CYP1A2 could be used to find a specific CYP1A2 substrate. Intrinsic clearance experiments demonstrated that tizanidine was a substrate of CYP1A2. Profiling of tizanidine metabolites generated by CYP1A2 identified the imidazole metabolite that was detectable in dog plasma. The imidazole metabolite was subsequently used to evaluate tizanidine as a CYP1A2 probe. Co-administration of the CYP1A inhibitor enrofloxacin with tizanidine significantly decreased (30%; n = 3) the formation of the imidazole metabolite vs. control experiments. As enrofloxacin is a weak inhibitor, further studies are required to confirm the sensitivity of tizanidine as an in vivo probe. However, tizanidine may be a more selective CYP1A2 probe than phenacetin when conducting in vitro studies due to the presence of other phenacetin-metabolizing enzymes in dog liver microsomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bitopertin (RG1678) is a glycine reuptake inhibitor currently in phase 3 trials for treatment of schizophrenia. This paper describes the use of physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling and preclinical data to gain insights into and predict bitopertin clinical pharmacokinetics. METHODS Simulations of pharmacokinetics were initiated early in the drug discovery stage by integrating physicochemical properties and in vitro measurements into a PBPK rat model. Comparison of pharmacokinetics predicted by PBPK modelling with those measured after intravenous and oral dosing in rats and monkeys showed a good match and thus increased confidence that a similar approach could be applied for human prediction. After comparison of predicted plasma concentrations with those measured after single oral doses in the first clinical study, the human model was refined and then applied to simulate multiple-dose pharmacokinetics. RESULTS Clinical plasma concentrations measured were in good agreement with PBPK predictions. Predicted area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) was within twofold of the observed mean values for all dose levels. Maximum plasma concentration (C max) at higher doses was well predicted but approximately twofold below observed values at the lower doses. A slightly less than dose-proportional increase in both AUC and C max was observed, and model simulations indicated that when the dose exceeded 50 mg, solubility limited the fraction of dose absorbed. Refinement of the absorption model with additional solubility and permeability measurements further improved the match of simulations to observed single-dose data. Simulated multiple-dose pharmacokinetics with the refined model were in good agreement with observed data. CONCLUSIONS Clinical pharmacokinetics of bitopertin can be well simulated with a mechanistic PBPK model. This model supports further clinical development and provides a valuable repository for pharmacokinetic knowledge gained about the molecule.

Abstract
Drug absorption from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a highly complex process dependent upon numerous factors including the physicochemical properties of the drug, characteristics of the formulation and interplay with the underlying physiological properties of the GI tract. The ability to accurately predict oral drug absorption during drug product development is becoming more relevant given the current challenges facing the pharmaceutical industry. Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling provides an approach that enables the plasma concentration-time profiles to be predicted from preclinical in vitro and in vivo data and can thus provide a valuable resource to support decisions at various stages of the drug development process. Whilst there have been quite a few successes with PBPK models identifying key issues in the development of new drugs in vivo, there are still many aspects that need to be addressed in order to maximize the utility of the PBPK models to predict drug absorption, including improving our understanding of conditions in the lower small intestine and colon, taking the influence of disease on GI physiology into account and further exploring the reasons behind population variability. Importantly, there is also a need to create more appropriate in vitro models for testing dosage form performance and to streamline data input from these into the PBPK models. As part of the Oral Biopharmaceutical Tools (OrBiTo) project, this review provides a summary of the current status of PBPK models available. The current challenges in PBPK set-ups for oral drug absorption including the composition of GI luminal contents, transit and hydrodynamics, permeability and intestinal wall metabolism are discussed in detail. Further, the challenges regarding the appropriate integration of results from in vitro models, such as consideration of appropriate integration/estimation of solubility and the complexity of the in vitro release and precipitation data, are also highlighted as important steps to advancing the application of PBPK models in drug development. It is expected that the "innovative" integration of in vitro data from more appropriate in vitro models and the enhancement of the GI physiology component of PBPK models, arising from the OrBiTo project, will lead to a significant enhancement in the ability of PBPK models to successfully predict oral drug absorption and advance their role in preclinical and clinical development, as well as for regulatory applications.

Abstract
The cytochrome P-450 (CYP) drug metabolizing enzymes are essential for the efficient elimination of many clinically used drugs. These enzymes typically display high interindividual variability in expression and function resulting from enzyme induction, inhibition, and genetic polymorphism thereby predisposing patients to adverse drug reactions or therapeutic failure. There are also substantial species differences in CYP substrate specificity and expression that complicate direct extrapolation of information from humans to veterinary species. This article reviews the available published data regarding the presence and impact of genetic polymorphisms on CYP-dependent drug metabolism in dogs in the context of known human-dog CYP differences.

Abstract
Elastin is one of the major extracellular matrix proteins associated with connective tissue. Its degradation leads to the liberation of the unique amino acids desmosine and isodesmosine. These have shown utility as biomarkers of elastin breakdown for disease progression, patient stratification, and drug efficacy. So far, the quantitation of desmosines in plasma is hampered by complex sample preparation. Here we demonstrate an improved and simplified procedure for detecting both free and total desmosines. The method is based on spiking with a deuterium-labeled desmosine standard, ethanol precipitation, propionylation, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation, and selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mass spectrometry. The performance of the assay is illustrated by comparing the levels of free and total desmosines in normal healthy plasma and those from patients diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A conserved ratio of 1:3 for free to total desmosine was found. The determination of free desmosine has higher accuracy than that of total desmosine; therefore, it is the method of choice when plasma volume is limiting. Finally, we show that the plasma desmosine concentration correlates with age and body mass index.
