Abstract
Crocetin as one of the main components of saffron possesses a lot of pharmacological effects, especially the beneficial effects in the treatment of hyperlipidemia. However, the pharmacokinetics of crocetin in the pathological state of hyperlipidemia has not been reported. In present study, the pharmacokinetics of crocetin in hyperlipidemia rats after oral administration of crocetin was investigated and the possible mechanisms for the pharmacokinetics were explored. High-fat diet was used to induce hyperlipidemia in rats. The pharmacokinetics of crocetin was investigated in hyperlipidemia and normal rats after oral and intravenous administration of crocetin, and the possible mechanisms of the pharmacokinetic changes were investigated in terms of metabolism and absorption using in vitro incubation with liver microsomes and the everted gut sac method, respectively. Results indicated that the AUCs of crocetin in hyperlipidemia rats after oral administration of crocetin were remarkably decreased when compared with those in normal rats. Moreover, crocetin was also metabolized more rapidly in the liver microsomes of hyperlipidemia rats and intestinal absorption of crocetin was significantly reduced in hyperlipidemia rats. It suggested that the remarkably decreased AUCs of crocetin in hyperlipidemia rats might partly result from the result of faster metabolic elimination and reduced absorption of crocetin in the hyperlipidemia pathological state. And the present investigations conducted on rats demonstrate that further investigations into the kinetics of crocetin in humans with hyperlipidemia are necessary in order to ensure an adequate dosage in this indication.

[PMID: 37765165 PMCID: PMC10534486 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15092195] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Tofacitinib, an inhibitor of Janus kinases (JAKs) 1 and 3, has been shown to be effective in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The incidence of hyperlipidemia has been found to be higher in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The present study therefore investigated the pharmacokinetics of tofacitinib after its intravenous (10 mg/kg) or oral (20 mg/kg) administration in poloxamer-407-induced hyperlipidemic (PHL) rats. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to infinity (AUC0-∞) after intravenous administration of tofacitinib was 73.5% higher in PHL than in control rats, owing to slower time-averaged nonrenal clearance (CLNR) in the former. Evaluation of in vitro metabolism showed that the intrinsic clearance (CLint) of tofacitinib was 38.6% lower in PHL than in control rats, owing to the decreased protein expression of hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A1/2 and CYP2C11 in PHL rats. Similar results were observed in PHL rats after oral administration of tofacitinib. These results were likely due to the decreased CLNR, CLint, and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression in the intestines of PHL compared to control rats. Overall, these findings indicated that hyperlipidemia slowed the metabolism of tofacitinib, increasing its plasma concentrations, and that this reduced metabolism was due to alterations in expression of the proteins CYP3A1/2, CYP2C11, and P-gp in the liver and/or intestines of PHL rats.

Clin Transl Sci 2021; 15:771-781. [PMID: 34786846 PMCID: PMC8932714 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13199] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2021] [Revised: 11/05/2021] [Accepted: 11/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Amiodarone and its main metabolite, desethylamiodarone (DEA), are highly distributed to serum lipoproteins such as very‐low‐density lipoprotein (VLDL) and low‐density lipoprotein (LDL), which are the carriers of triglyceride and cholesterol. This study aimed to investigate the association of serum concentrations of amiodarone and DEA with the levels of serum lipids in terms of drug distribution to lipoprotein fractions in patients with hyperlipidemia. Total serum concentrations of amiodarone and DEA were examined in 116 patients receiving amiodarone for tachyarrhythmias. The concentration‐to‐dose (C/D) ratio of amiodarone positively correlated with the level of serum triglyceride (rs = 0.541, p < 0.001) and was higher in the hypertriglyceridemic state than in normotriglyceridemic state (479 ± 211 vs. 320 ± 161, p < 0.001). No correlation was found between the C/D ratio of DEA and serum triglyceride levels (rs = 0.272), although higher values were observed in the hypertriglyceridemic state (322 ± 125 vs. 285 ± 143, p < 0.001). In the hypertriglyceridemic state, the distribution of amiodarone increased in LDL/VLDL fraction and decreased in high‐density lipoprotein and albumin fractions. The ratio of serum amiodarone to serum DEA, a metabolic ratio of amiodarone, positively correlated with serum triglyceride levels (rs = 0.572, p < 0.001) and was higher in the hypertriglyceridemic state, suggesting that amiodarone metabolism decreased in hyperlipidemia. The results of this study reveal that serum concentrations of amiodarone increase in the hypertriglyceridemic state through the increased lipoprotein‐binding and decreased metabolism of amiodarone.

Saudi Pharm J 2021; 29:719-723.

Abstract
The aim of the present research was to describe the consequences of hyperlipidemia (HL) on the pharmacokinetics of glibenclamide (Gb) in poloxamer 407-induced hyperlipidemic rats. Rats were given intraperitoneal dose of poloxamer 407 to cause hyperlipidemia. A single oral dose of Gb (10 mg/Kg) was given to normal and HL rats. The Cmax and tmax after oral dose of Gb in normal rats were 340.10 µg/ml and 3.67 h, respectively. Whereas, the Cmax and tmax after oral dose of Gb in HL rats were noted as 773.39 µg/ml and 2.50 h respectively. The AUC value of Gb was found considerably higher in the HL rats. While the plasma clearance (CL) after oral dose of Gb was 2.53 ml/h and 1.39 ml/h in normal and HL rats respectively. The improved plasma concentration of Gb following oral dosing in rats with HL seems to be due to a direct influence on hepatic clearance or metabolizing enzymes. In conclusion, the Gb pharmacokinetics was considerably affected by the HL in rats. Such findings play an important role for predicting the alterations in the pharmacokinetics of drugs including GB, in cases having hyperlipidemia.

Abstract
Dronedarone biodistribution in hyperlipidemia and dronedarone metabolism in hyperlipidemia or obesity were assessed. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were given either normal standard chow with water or various high-fat or high-carbohydrate diets for 14 weeks. There was also a nonobese hyperlipidemic group given poloxamer 407 intraperitoneally. Liver and intestinal microsomes were prepared and the metabolic conversion of dronedarone to desbutyldronedarone was followed. A biodistribution study of dronedarone given orally was conducted in hyperlipidemic and control normolipidemic rats. The metabolism of dronedarone to desbutyldronedarone in control rats was consistent with substrate inhibition. However in the treatment groups, the formation of desbutyldronedarone did not follow substrate inhibition; hyperlipidemia and high-calorie diets created remarkable changes in dronedarone metabolic profiles and reduction in formation velocities. Tissue concentrations of dronedarone were much higher than in plasma. Furthermore, in hyperlipidemia, plasma and lung dronedarone concentrations were significantly higher compared to normolipidemia.

The mechanisms of pharmacokinetic food-drug interactions - A perspective from the UNGAP group. Eur J Pharm Sci 2019; 134:31-59.

Abstract
The simultaneous intake of food and drugs can have a strong impact on drug release, absorption, distribution, metabolism and/or elimination and consequently, on the efficacy and safety of pharmacotherapy. As such, food-drug interactions are one of the main challenges in oral drug administration. Whereas pharmacokinetic (PK) food-drug interactions can have a variety of causes, pharmacodynamic (PD) food-drug interactions occur due to specific pharmacological interactions between a drug and particular drinks or food. In recent years, extensive efforts were made to elucidate the mechanisms that drive pharmacokinetic food-drug interactions. Their occurrence depends mainly on the properties of the drug substance, the formulation and a multitude of physiological factors. Every intake of food or drink changes the physiological conditions in the human gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, a precise understanding of how different foods and drinks affect the processes of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and/or elimination as well as formulation performance is important in order to be able to predict and avoid such interactions. Furthermore, it must be considered that beverages such as milk, grapefruit juice and alcohol can also lead to specific food-drug interactions. In this regard, the growing use of food supplements and functional food requires urgent attention in oral pharmacotherapy. Recently, a new consortium in Understanding Gastrointestinal Absorption-related Processes (UNGAP) was established through COST, a funding organisation of the European Union supporting translational research across Europe. In this review of the UNGAP Working group "Food-Drug Interface", the different mechanisms that can lead to pharmacokinetic food-drug interactions are discussed and summarised from different expert perspectives.

Abstract
1. Plasma lipid profile abnormalities in hyperlipidemia can potentially alter the pharmacokinetics of a drug in a complex manner. To evaluate these pharmacokinetic alterations in hyperlipidemia and to determine the underlying mechanism(s), poloxamer 407-induced hyperlipidemic rats (HL rats), a well-established animal model of hyperlipidemia have been used. 2. In this review, we summarize findings on the pathophysiological and gene expression changes in drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters in HL rats. We discuss pharmacokinetic changes in drugs metabolized primarily via hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYPs) in terms of alterations in hepatic intrinsic clearance (CL'int), free fraction in plasma (fu) and hepatic blood flow rate (QH), depending on the hepatic excretion ratio, as well as drugs eliminated primarily by mechanisms other than hepatic CYPs. 3. For lipoprotein-bound drugs, increased binding to lipoproteins resulted in lower fu values and volumes of distribution, with some exceptions. Generally, slower non-renal clearance (or total body clearance) of drugs that are substrates of hepatic CYP3A and CYP2C is well explained by the following factors: alterations in CL'int (due to down-regulation of hepatic CYPs), decreased fu and/or possible decreased QH. 4. These consistent findings across studies in HL rats suggest more studies are needed at the clinical level for optimal pharmacotherapies for hyperlipidemia.

Abstract
A recent study suggested that the pharmacokinetics (PK) of highly fat distributed compounds can be affected by acute changes in the volume of adipose tissue. The present study investigates possible influences of body composition on the disposition of the highly lipophilic compound TAK-357 in two rat strains. Physiologically based PK (PBPK) modeling and simulation was applied on single and multiple dose PK data of TAK-357 in obese Wistar fatty rats and Wistar lean rats having approximately 45% and 13% body fat, respectively. The observed effects of an elevated fat mass in Wistar fatty rats on the plasma concentrations appeared to be partly compensated for by other differences between the two rat strains. A decrease in the tissue to blood partition coefficients under high body fat conditions was identified as another factor contributing to the difference in PK. A higher lipid content in the plasma in high body fat animals may result in relatively lower tissue to blood partition coefficients. PBPK-based simulations indicate that the plasma concentrations of lipophilic compounds in high body fat conditions can differ by up to two-times at steady-state. This confirms that there is only a small impact of body composition change on the plasma concentration of highly lipophilic drugs and that the need for therapeutic dose adjustments may be limited.

Abstract
Various diseases such as type 2 diabetes (T2D) may alter drug clearance. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of T2D on CYP450 expressions and activities using high-fat diet (HFD) as a model of obesity-dependent diabetes in C57BL6 mice. The cyp450 mRNA expression levels for 15 different isoforms were determined in the liver and extra-hepatic tissues (kidneys, lungs and heart) of HFD-treated animals (n = 45). Modulation of cyp450 metabolic activities by HFD was assessed using eight known substrates for specific human ortholog CYP450 isoforms: in vitro incubations were conducted with liver and extra-hepatic microsomes. Expression levels of cyp3a11 and cyp3a25 mRNA were decreased in the liver (>2-14-fold) and kidneys (>2-fold) of HFD groups which correlated with a significant reduction in midazolam metabolism (by 21- and 5-fold in hepatic and kidney microsomes, respectively, p < 0.001). HFD was associated with decreased activities of cyp2b and cyp2c subfamilies in all organs tested except in the kidneys (for tolbutamide). Other cyp450 hepatic activities were minimally or not affected by HFD. Taken together, our data suggest that substrate-dependent and tissue-dependent modulation of cyp450 metabolic capacities by early phases of T2D are observed, which could modulate drug disposition and pharmacological effects in various tissues.

Abstract
Metformin pharmacokinetics are highly dependent upon organic cationic transporters. There is evidence of a change in its renal clearance in hyperlipidemic obese patients, and no information on its metabolic fate. To study some of these aspects, the influence of poloxamer 407 (P407)-induced hyperlipidemia on metformin pharmacokinetics was assessed. Control and P407-treated adult male rats were administered 30 mg/kg metformin intravenously (i.v.). The pharmacokinetic assessments were performed at 2 time points, 36 and 108 h, following the intraperitoneal dose of P407 (1 g/kg). mRNA and protein expressions of cationic drug transporters were also measured. There was no evidence of a change in metformin pharmacokinetics after i.v. doses as a consequence of short-term hyperlipidemia, and a change in transporter mRNA but not protein expression was observed in the P407- treated rats 108 h after P407 injection. Urinary recovery of unchanged drug was high (>90%) but incomplete. Presumed metabolite peaks were detected in chromatograms of hepatocytes and microsomal protein spiked with metformin. Comparative chromatographic elution times and mass spectra suggested that one of the predominant metabolites was guanylurea. Hyperlipidemia by itself did not affect the pharmacokinetics of metformin. Guanylurea is a putative metabolite of metformin in rats.

Abstract
In-vitro studies were performed to shed light on previous findings that showed increased uptake of cyclosporine A in the kidneys and liver of hyperlipidemic rats, and increased signs of kidney toxicity. Hepatocytes were obtained from rats, cultured, and exposed to a diluted serum from hyperlipidemic rats. Some cells were also exposed to lipid-lowering drugs. After washing out the rat serum or lipid-lowering drugs, cells were exposed to cyclosporine A embedded in serum lipoproteins. Pretreatment with hyperlipidemic serum and lipid-lowering drugs was associated with an increased uptake of cyclosporine A. As expected, atorvastatin caused an increase in low density lipoprotein receptor and a decrease in MDR1A mRNA in the hepatocytes. A decrease in NRK-52E rat renal tubular cellular viability caused by cyclosporine A was noted when cells were preincubated with diluted hyperlipidemic serum. This was matched with evidence of hyperlipidemic-serum-associated increases in the NRK-52E cellular uptake of cyclosporine A and rhodamine-123. The findings of these experiments suggested that in hyperlipidemia the expression and (or) the functional activity of P-glycoprotein was diminished, leading to greater hepatic and renal uptake of cyclosporine A, and renal cellular toxicity.

Abstract
Drugs with low water solubility are predisposed to low and variable oral bioavailability and, therefore, to variability in clinical response. Despite significant efforts to "design in" acceptable developability properties (including aqueous solubility) during lead optimization, approximately 40% of currently marketed compounds and most current drug development candidates remain poorly water-soluble. The fact that so many drug candidates of this type are advanced into development and clinical assessment is testament to an increasingly sophisticated understanding of the approaches that can be taken to promote apparent solubility in the gastrointestinal tract and to support drug exposure after oral administration. Here we provide a detailed commentary on the major challenges to the progression of a poorly water-soluble lead or development candidate and review the approaches and strategies that can be taken to facilitate compound progression. In particular, we address the fundamental principles that underpin the use of strategies, including pH adjustment and salt-form selection, polymorphs, cocrystals, cosolvents, surfactants, cyclodextrins, particle size reduction, amorphous solid dispersions, and lipid-based formulations. In each case, the theoretical basis for utility is described along with a detailed review of recent advances in the field. The article provides an integrated and contemporary discussion of current approaches to solubility and dissolution enhancement but has been deliberately structured as a series of stand-alone sections to allow also directed access to a specific technology (e.g., solid dispersions, lipid-based formulations, or salt forms) where required.

Abstract
In this study, the pharmacokinetics of verapamil and its active metabolite norverapamil were evaluated following intravenous and oral administration of 10 mg/kg verapamil to rats with hyperlipidaemia (HL) induced by poloxamer 407 (HL rats). The total area under the plasma concentration time curve (AUC) of verapamil in HL rats following intravenous administration was significantly greater (by 11.2%) than in control rats due to their slower (by 11%) non-renal clearance. The oral AUC of verapamil in HL rats was also significantly greater (by 116%) compared with controls, with a larger magnitude than the data observed following intravenous administration. This may have been a result of the decreased intestinal metabolism of verapamil in HL rats. The AUC of norverapamil and AUC(norverapamil)/AUC(verapamil) ratios following intravenous and oral administration of verapamil were unchanged in HL rats. Assuming that the HL rat model qualitatively reflects similar changes in patients with HL, the findings of this study have potential therapeutic implications. Further studies in humans are required to determine whether modification of the oral verapamil dosage regimen in HL states is necessary.

Abstract
Hyperlipidemia can significantly increase amiodarone (AM) in vivo liver uptake and decrease its velocity of microsomal metabolism. Here, hepatocytes isolated from normolipidemic (NL) and hyperlipidemic rats were incubated with AM in the presence or absence of diluted NL or hyperlipidemic serum. The serum was added either as preincubation before drug, or concurrently with drug; incubations without rat serum were used as controls. The hepatocyte levels of mRNA for several proteins and enzymes were also measured. Disappearance of AM was seen up to 72 h. There was little difference between hepatocytes from NL or hyperlipidemic animals in intrinsic clearance (CL(int) ) of AM. The effect of hyperlipidemic rat serum, either before or with AM, was profound, causing a significant reduction in the CL(int) . Reductions were seen in mRNA for cytochrome P450 1A1, 3A2, and 2D1, some transporters, and low-density lipoprotein receptors after exposure of hepatocytes to lipoprotein-rich sera. In conclusion, exposure of isolated hepatocytes to hyperlipidemic serum caused decreases in AM CL(int) and lower mRNA levels for some proteins involved in the uptake and metabolism of AM. When coincubated with serum, an additional effect of increased binding to lipoproteins seemed to further contribute to a reduced CL of AM.

Abstract
The successful use of herbal combinations in managing diseases or conditions over a single herb has lead us to evaluate the anti-dyslipidemic properties of the combination of the artichoke leaves extract, turmeric extract, prickly pear dried leaves (PPL) and garlic extract versus each one alone in two different hyperlipidemic animal models. A two-week treatment of each of the natural extracts, combination 1 (artichoke, turmeric and PPL) or combination 2 (artichoke, turmeric, PPL and garlic) prior to a single intraperitoneal injection of Pluronic F-127 resulted in decreasing significantly serum LDL levels by garlic and PPL extracts and serum LDL/HDL ratios by turmeric, PPL, combination 1 and 2. In a 10-day high fat diet model, only the combination 1 and 2 lowered serum cholesterol, LDL by 8–12%, decreased significantly triglycerides, LDL/HDL ratio; and increased significantly HDL (P < 0.0001). However, a long term treatment of each natural product for 7 weeks resulted in decreasing significantly serum LDL levels and LDL/HDL ratio (P < 0.05–0.0001). Furthermore, only artichoke and PPL inhibited significantly HMG-CoA reductase activity (P < 0.05). In conclusion, short term, as well as long term, treatment using the combination of artichoke, turmeric, PPL and garlic extract prevents dyslipidemia; partially through inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase.

Eur Neuropsychopharmacol 2012; 22:431-40.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of carbamazepine (CBZ) and its active 10,11-epoxide metabolite (CBZ-E) were evaluated after intravenous and oral administration of 5 mg/kg CBZ to rats with hyperlipidemia induced by poloxamer 407 (HL rats) and controls. The total area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of CBZ in HL rats after intravenous administration was significantly greater than that in controls due to their slower non-renal clearance (CL(NR)). This was due to slower hepatic CL(int) for metabolism of CBZ to CBZ-E in HL rats via CYP3A1/2. This result was consistent with a previous study indicating reduced hepatic CYP3A1/2 expression in HL rats. Interestingly, the AUC of CBZ-E was also increased in HL rats, while AUC(CBZ-E)/AUC(CBZ) ratios remained unchanged. These results suggested that further metabolism of CBZ-E to the inactive metabolite trans-10,11-dihydoxyl-10,11-dihydro-CBZ (CBZ-D) via microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH) was also slowed in HL rats. The significantly reduced hepatic mRNA level and expression of mEH protein in HL rats compared to controls confirmed the above hypothesis. Similar pharmacokinetic changes were observed in HL rats after oral administration of CBZ. These findings have potential therapeutic implications assuming that the HL rat model qualitatively reflects similar changes in patients with hyperlipidemia. Caution is required regarding pharmacotherapy in the hyperlipidemic state in cases where drugs that are metabolized principally by CYP3A1/2 or mEH and have a narrow therapeutic range are in use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Halofantrine can cause a prolongation of the cardiac QT interval, leading to serious ventricular arrhythmias. Hyperlipidaemia elevates plasma concentration of halofantrine and may influence its tissue uptake. The present study examined the effect of experimental hyperlipidaemia on QT interval prolongation induced by halofantrine in rats. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Normolipidaemic and hyperlipidaemic rats (induced with poloxamer 407) were given 4 doses of halofantrine (i.v., 4-40 mg·kg(-1)·d(-1)) or vehicle every 12 h. Under brief anaesthesia, ECGs were recorded before administration of the vehicle or drug and 12 h after the first and last doses. Blood samples were taken at the same time after the first and last dose of halofantrine. Hearts were also collected 12 h after the last dose. Plasma and heart samples were assayed for drug and desbutylhalofantrine using a stereospecific method. KEY RESULTS In the vehicle group, hyperlipidaemia by itself did not affect the ECG. Compared to baseline, QT intervals were significantly higher in both normolipidaemic and hyperlipidaemic rats after halofantrine. In hyperlipidaemic rats, plasma but not heart concentrations of the halofantrine enantiomers were significantly higher compared to those in normolipidaemic rats. Despite the lack of difference in the concentrations of halofantrine in heart, QT intervals were significantly higher in hyperlipidaemic compared to those in normolipidaemic rats. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS The unbound fraction of halofantrine appeared to be the controlling factor for drug uptake by the heart. Our data suggested a greater vulnerability to halofantrine-induced QT interval prolongation in the hyperlipidaemic state.

Abstract
Hyperlipidaemia correlates with an increased risk of occurrence of various cancers. In this study, the effects of hyperlipidaemia on the pharmacokinetics of docetaxel, a member of the taxane class of anti-cancer drugs, were investigated in rats with experimental hyperlipidaemia; we focused on the alterations in docetaxel metabolism and plasma distribution. Docetaxel (5 mg/kg intravenously (i.v.) and 40 mg/kg per oral (p.o.)) was administered to control rats and rats with poloxamer-407 (P-407)-induced hyperlipidaemia (1 g/kg, intraperitoneally). In vitro studies were conducted on hepatic metabolism in S9 fractions and plasma protein binding using the ultrafiltration method. Hyperlipidaemia dramatically increased the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC(0-∞)) of docetaxel after i.v. (1.86-fold) or p.o. (10.8-fold) administration and decreased total body clearance (0.574-fold) and apparent volume of distribution at steady state (0.615-fold) of docetaxel after i.v. administration. Compared with the control rats, the metabolism of docetaxel by hepatic S9 fractions and the unbound fraction in the plasma in the hyperlipidaemic rats were decreased, i.e., by 20.1 and 79.8%, respectively. In conclusion, the alterations in docetaxel pharmacokinetics in rats with P-407-induced hyperlipidaemia may be due, at least in part, to a decrease in hepatic metabolism and the unbound fraction of docetaxel in the plasma. These findings have potential therapeutic implications for predicting human pharmacokinetic responses to hyperlipidaemia.

Abstract
For drugs that have a narrow therapeutic margin in their concentration-effect profile, blood concentration measurements can be an invaluable guide to the individualization of dosage regimens. For clinicians involved in therapeutic drug monitoring, background knowledge of basic pharmacokinetics related to drug behaviour with repeated dose regimens is crucial, especially recognition of the factors affecting the rate and extent of drug accumulation, which ultimately determine the steady-state drug concentrations in the blood. Much of the available literature describing accumulation focuses on average steady-state concentrations or its related parameter, the area under the blood/plasma concentration-time curve. However, in practice, for most drugs, it is the individual concentrations at different times within each dosing interval at steady state that can be more predictive of the effectiveness and/or toxicity of the drug. Furthermore, most reference textbooks describe accumulation in terms of drugs that follow a one-compartment model with bolus administration, whereas the mode of dose administration can have an impact on measures of accumulation in a manner that differs from intravascular bolus dosing. Additionally, the accumulation kinetics in the plasma are profoundly influenced by multicompartment or nonlinear pharmacokinetics. Another consideration in accumulation kinetics is how tissue concentrations might be influenced by repeated doses - which, as shown in this review, can have clinical ramifications. In this article, drug accumulation is reviewed in a comprehensive manner, and the influences of the route of administration, nonlinear elimination and tissue concentrations are discussed.

Abstract
There is a long-term discussion in the literature concerning the possible link between the improved efficacy of clozapine treatment and elevated plasma triglyceride levels, but no mechanistic studies have been performed to date. The aim of this work was to investigate whether the postprandial hypertriglyceridemia affects the pharmacokinetics and brain distribution of clozapine and norclozapine. Experimental hypertriglyceridemia in rats was induced by oral administration of peanut oil and the pharmacokinetic parameters and brain penetration of clozapine and norclozapine following administration of clozapine were compared to normotriglyceridemic control animals. Moderately increased clearance of clozapine was found in hypertriglyceridemic animals compared to control group. No changes were found in penetration of compounds across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Taken together, the results do not support the hypothesis that hypertriglyceridemia improves the effect of clozapine by altered pharmacokinetics of clozapine and norclozapine and their increased penetration across the BBB.
