Abstract
SCR430, a sorafenib derivative, is an investigational drug exhibiting anti-tumor action. This study aimed to have a mechanistic understanding of SCR430's time-dependent pharmacokinetics (TDPK) through an ex vivo study combined with an in vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) and physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling. A non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis was performed after intravenous SCR430 administration in female Sprague-Dawley rats for a control group (no treatment), a vehicle group (vehicle only, 14 days, PO), and a repeated-dosing group (SCR430, 30 mg/kg/day, 14 days, PO). In addition, hepatic uptake and metabolism modulation were investigated using isolated hepatocytes from each group of rats. The minimal PBPK model based on IVIVE was constructed to explain SCR430's TDPK. Repeated SCR430 administration decreased the systemic exposure by 4.4-fold, which was explained by increased hepatic clearance (4.7-fold). The ex vivo study using isolated hepatocytes from each group suggested that the increased hepatic uptake (9.4-fold), not the metabolic activity, contributes to the increased hepatic clearance. The minimal PBPK modeling based on an ex vivo study could explain the decreased plasma levels after the repeated doses. The current study demonstrates the TDPK after repeated dosing by hepatic uptake induction, not hepatic metabolism, as well as the effectiveness of an ex vivo approach combined with IVIVE and PBPK modeling to investigate the TDPK.

Abstract
Continuous infusion of ethanol-containing diets has been demonstrated to generate well-defined pulses in blood and urine ethanol concentrations that occur with a frequency of approximately 6 days. The present study aimed to determine if hepatic class I alcohol dehydrogenase was the cause of these cycles. Adult male rats were fed an ethanol-containing diet by continuous intragastric infusion. Hepatic ADH activity, class I ADH mRNA level and rate of class I ADH gene transcription fluctuated in a cyclic pattern that positively correlated with UECs, and inhibition of ADH with 4-methylpyrazole abolished the UEC pulses. These data demonstrate for the first time an ethanol-dependent regulation of rat hepatic class I ADH. The cyclic behavior of the ethanol levels correlates with changes in class I ADH expression and implies adaptability of the ethanol eliminating system to high concentrations of alcohol.

Abstract
In this study, potential alterations in hepatic blood flow, plasma protein binding, hepatic tissue binding, and enzyme activities induced by LD iv infusion of lidocaine (LD) were evaluated using a chronically instrumented dog model. Four conscious female mongrel dogs (19.0-23.5 kg) were each given, on days 1 and 10, a 5-min infusion of a mixture of unlabeled LD at approximately 2 mg/kg and 14C-labeled LD at approximately 25 microCi and, on day 8, a 12-h constant rate iv infusion of LD (approximately 76 microg/kg/min). During LD infusion, there was a 11-79% increase in total hepatic blood flow, mainly due to a 1.6-9.2-fold increase in hepatic arterial flow. Despite similar blood clearance (27.5 +/- 6.0 mL/min/kg vs 27.5 +/- 3.5 mL/min/kg), volume of distribution at steady state (1.38 +/- 0.08 L/kg vs 1.36 +/- 0.17 L/kg), and free fraction values of LD between days 1 and 10 (p > 0.05), intrinsic clearance values were consistently reduced (1224 +/- 859 mL/ min/kg vs 285 +/- 104 mL/min/kg; p = 0.034). Furthermore, hepatic tissue uptake of LD and/or its metabolites was less on day 10 than on day 1 (39.7 +/- 14.5 micromol vs 30.1 +/- 15.1 micromol; p = 0.072). The extent of N-dealkylation of LD to MEGX was unaltered, whereas sequential biotransformation of MEGX was impaired. Hence, these findings suggested that LD infusion led to a reduction of hepatic intrinsic clearance, although the change was not significant enough to alter its conventional kinetic parameters.

Abstract
Continuous, long-term intragastric infusions of ethanol leads to a two-step induction of hepatic cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) that is correlated with blood ethanol concentrations (BECs) and urine alcohol concentrations (UECs). In addition, long-term and continuous ethanol infusion does not produce a steady-state BEC, but results in pulsatile BECs and UECs having peak-peak duration of approximately 6 days and ethanol concentrations ranging from near zero to over 500 mg/dl. In the present study, rats were treated with ethanol (levels reaching 13 g.kg-1.day-1) for 38 days in the presence of compounds reported to block CYP2E1 activity or expression, to study the possible involvement of CYP2E1 in the pulsatile BECs. The inhibitors used were chlormethiazole (CMZ); diallysulfide (DAS); phenethyl isothiocyanate (PET) and dihydrocapsacin (DHC). Hepatic microsomal metabolism of carbon tetrachloride and p-nitrophenol, as well as mean CYP2E1 apoprotein levels, were significantly greater (P < or = 0.05) in ethanol-treated rats than in control rats, whereas rats treated with DAS, CMZ or PET had significantly (P < or = 0.05) reduced p-nitrophenol and carbon tetrachloride metabolism and lower CYP2E1 apoprotein levels compared to those of ethanol controls. UECs were variable in all ethanol-treated groups and there was a typical pulsatile pattern that had a mean interpulse interval (the number of days between the peaks of two consecutive pulses) ranging over 5.4 +/- 0.3-6.0 +/- 0.7 days and a mean amplitude (nadir to peak UEC) of 415 +/- 39-337 +/- 33 mg/dl. None of the putative CYP2E1 blockers altered the pulsatile nature of ethanol in urine. Our results suggest that pulsatile UECs are not the result of variations in the amount of CYP2E1.

Abstract
Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with alcohol for 35 days using a total enteral nutrition model. Intragastric cannulae were inserted into rats and they were infused with a diet designed to promote normal growth in male rats. Alcohol was infused at 35% of total calories for 35 days. Urine and blood alcohol concentrations were determined and found to be pulsatile during continuous alcohol infusion, having values between near zero and greater than 500 mg/dl. Twenty-four-hour urine alcohol concentrations were found to be excellent indicators of blood alcohol concentrations (BACs). Cytochrome P450 CYP2E1 was induced in a two-step manner. Step one occurred at BACs below 250 mg/dl and was characterized by significant (p < or = 0.05) elevations in activities and apoprotein levels with no changes in steady-state mRNA. Step two occurred with BACs greater than 300 mg/dl and resulted in significant (p < or = 0.05) elevations in steady-state mRNA levels. We propose that the pulsatile BACs are caused by an ethanol concentration-dependent regulation of an ethanol metabolizing system, perhaps CYP2E1.

Abstract
In order to investigate diurnal variations in binding parameters of A1 and A2 adenosine receptors, Kd and Bmax were calculated in mice that had been housed under controlled light-dark cycles for 4 weeks (light on from 7.00 to 19.00 h). A1 cortical receptors were labelled by N6-cyclohexyl-[3H]adenosine, and A1 and A2 striatal receptors by 5'-N-ethylcarboxamido[8-3H]adenosine. Significant differences were found for Bmax values measured at 3-h intervals across a 24-h period. Cyclic variations of the number of binding sites were shown, with a minimum number of A1 and A2 receptors during the light period and a maximum during the dark period. The amplitude for cortical A1 receptors, between 03.00 and 18.00 h, was 39%, while for striatal A1 receptors, between 03.00 and 15.00 h, was 92%. The amplitude for the A2 striatal receptors, between 03.00 and 15.00 h, was 147%. No substantial rhythm was found in the Kd values. These differences in the amplitude could suggest a different physiological modulation of the two adenosine receptor subtype moiety which could reflect a physiologically-relevant mechanism by which adenosine exerts its modulatory role in the central nervous system.

Abstract
Diet is one of many factors that influence the pharmacokinetics of drugs. The level of protein intake has been found to significantly influence drug metabolism and glomerular filtration, both of which play an important role in the clearance of drugs. Recently, a marked change, resulting from restricted dietary protein intake, has been reported in the handling of several drugs which are reabsorbed and/or secreted by the renal tubules. In studies of healthy volunteers on protein-restricted diets the renal clearance and fractional excretion of model compounds have been altered, falling to 30% of values obtained on normal diets in the case of the weak acids oxipurinol and uric acid; the fractional excretion of the weak base cimetidine has been increased by 30%. These studies have also found that the change in the renal clearance of both acids is sustained with prolonged dietary protein-calorie restriction, and that, for oxipurinol, the magnitude of the change is directly related to the quantity of protein in the diet, the change is related specifically to the protein content in the diet (and not the total calories), the onset of change is rapid, and on a low-protein diet the renal clearance undergoes marked diurnal variation. The mechanism for the alteration in tubular function is not clear, but may be related to renal haemodynamic changes or competition for transport associated with protein intake. Regardless of the mechanism, these results have important implications for pharmacokinetic research and clinical practice.

Abstract
The chronopharmacokinetics of 4' epi-adriamycin (Epi) have been studied in ten patients with gynecological malignancies. The drug (45 mg m-2) was administered as a short time (5.0 min) intravenous infusion at 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., in a randomized cross-over design. The pharmacokinetics of Epi were evaluated according to the statistical moment theory. Morning and afternoon dosing of Epi was not bioequivalent. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC), the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), mean residence time (MRT) and the terminal half-life time (t1/2) could differ by more than 35% after morning and afternoon dosing. The inter-individual variation of AUC and Cp,max were larger after morning dosing than after afternoon dosing (P less than 0.04). The morning dose of Epi resulted in higher values of AUC in seven of the ten treated patients as compared to the afternoon dose. The terminal half-life times were shorter in eight of the patients after the morning dose.

Abstract
The effect of rifampicin on the blood concentration-time curve of propranolol at steady-state following oral administration of 120 mg every 8 h was investigated in six normal, young, male subjects. After an initial 2 week dosing period, all individuals additionally received 600 mg rifampicin daily for 3 weeks followed by a 4 week period during which again only the propranolol was given. In four of the subjects the effects of 900 and 1200 mg rifampicin daily was also studied. Changes in disposition were assessed by estimation of propranolol's oral clearance and elimination half-life during the dosage interval. Rifampicin (600 mg/day) caused a large increase in propranolol's oral clearance (35.7 +/- 16.3 vs 96.1 +/- 26.9 ml min-1 kg-1, mean +/- s.d.), but neither the elimination half-life nor extent of plasma binding were affected. Increasing the daily dosage to 900 and 1200 mg did not cause any additional changes in oral clearance. Four weeks after discontinuing rifampicin, propranolol's oral clearance had essentially returned to its pre-induction level. The oral clearance of propranolol was significantly smaller (89.5 +/- 14.4%) during the dosage interval immediately after administration of the last rifampicin dose than the value measured 24 h later. The findings are consistent with rifampicin causing induction of the drug metabolizing enzymes responsible for propranolol's biotransformation. The marked reduction in the steady-state propranolol blood concentration that results from chronic rifampicin administration would be expected to result in a significant change in clinical effectiveness of the beta-adrenoceptor blocker when the two drugs are used concurrently.
