Toxicity and speciation of inorganic arsenics and their adverse effects on in vivo endpoints and oxidative stress in the marine medaka Oryzias melastigma. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 473:134641. [PMID: 38788572 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134641] [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: 01/28/2024] [Revised: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
Here, we investigate the effects of acute and chronic exposure to arsenate (AsV) and arsenite (AsIII) in the marine medaka Oryzias melastigma. In vivo effects, biotransformation, and oxidative stress were studied in marine medaka exposed to the two inorganic arsenics for 4 or 28 days. An investigation of embryonic development revealed no effect on in vivo parameters, but the hatching rate increased in the group exposed to AsIII. Exposure to AsIII also caused the greatest accumulation of arsenic in medaka. For acute exposure, the ratio of AsV to AsIII was higher than that of chronic exposure, indicating that bioaccumulation of inorganic arsenic can induce oxidative stress. The largest increase in oxidative stress was observed following acute exposure to AsIII, but no significant degree of oxidative stress was induced by chronic exposure. During acute exposure to AsV, the increase in the enzymatic activity of glutathione-S-transferase (GST) was twice as high compared with exposure to AsIII, suggesting that GST plays an important role in the initial detoxification process. In addition, an RNA-seq-based ingenuity pathway analysis revealed that acute exposure to AsIII may be related to cell-cycle progression. A network analysis using differentially expressed genes also revealed a potential link between the generation of inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress due to arsenic exposure.

Controlling cleaning agent residues in pharmaceutical manufacturing: A harmonized scientific strategy. Regul Toxicol Pharmacol 2023:105430. [PMID: 37308050 DOI: 10.1016/j.yrtph.2023.105430] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
This paper proposes a scientifically justified and harmonized strategy to control cleaning agent ingredients' (CAIs) residues in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Firstly, we demonstrate that worst-case cleaning validation calculations on CAI residuals with representative GMP standard cleaning limits (SCLs) are enough to control CAI residues of low concern to safe levels. Secondly, a new harmonized strategy for the toxicological assessment of CAI residuals is presented and validated. The results establish a framework applicable to cleaning agent mixtures based on hazard and exposure considerations. This framework is primarily based on the hierarchy of a single CAI's critical effect, where the lowest resulting limit may become the driver of the cleaning validation process. The six critical effect groups are: (1) CAIs of low concern based on safe exposure reasoning; (2) CAIs of low concern based on the mode of action reasoning; (3) CAIs with local concentration-dependent critical effects; (4) CAIs with dose-dependent systemic critical effects for which a route-specific PDE should be calculated; (5) poorly characterized CAIs with unknown critical effect for which a default value of 100 μg/day is proposed; (6) poorly characterized CAIs which should be avoided because of potential mutagenicity and/or potency.

PHARMACEUTICAL BIOLOGY 2017; 55:1093-1113. [PMID: 28198202 PMCID: PMC6130650 DOI: 10.1080/13880209.2017.1288749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2016] [Revised: 01/12/2017] [Accepted: 01/25/2017] [Indexed: 05/02/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT Medicinal plants have attracted global attention for their hidden therapeutic potential. Clinacanthus nutans (Burm.f) Lindau (Acanthaceae) (CN) is endemic in Southeast Asia. CN contains phytochemicals common to medicinal plants, such as flavonoids. Traditionally, CN has been used for a broad range of human ailments including snake bites and cancer. OBJECTIVES This article compiles the ethnomedicinal uses of CN and its phytochemistry, and thus provides a phytochemical library of CN. It also discusses the known pharmacological and biological effects of CN to enable better investigation of CN. METHODS This literature review was limited to articles and websites published in the English language. MEDLINE and Google Scholar databases were searched from December 2014 to September 2016 using the following keywords: "Clinacanthus nutans" and "Belalai gajah". The results were reviewed to identify relevant articles. Information from relevant selected studies was systematically analyzed from contemporary ethnopharmacological sources, evaluated against scientific literature, and extracted into tables. RESULTS The literature search yielded 124 articles which were then further scrutinized revealing the promising biological activities of CN, including antimicrobial, antiproliferative, antitumorigenic and anti-inflammatory effects. Few articles discussed the mechanisms for these pharmacological activities. Furthermore, CN was beneficial in small-scale clinical trials for genital Herpes and aphthous stomatitis. CONCLUSION Despite the rich ethnomedicinal knowledge behind the traditional uses of CN, the current scientific evidence to support these claims remains scant. More research is still needed to validate these medicinal claims, beginning by increasing the understanding of the biological actions of this plant.

Abstract
Toxicological studies constitute an essential part of the effort in developing an herbal medicine into a drug product. A newly developed thymoquinone-rich fraction nanoemulsion (TQRFNE) has been prepared using a high pressure homogenizer. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential acute toxicity of this nanoemulsion in Sprague Dawley rats. The acute toxicity studies were conducted as per the OECD guidelines 425, allowing for the use of test dose limit of 20 mL TQRFNE (containing 44.5 mg TQ)/kg. TQRFNE and distilled water (DW) as a control were administered orally to both sexes of rats on Day 0 and observed for 14 days. All the animals appeared normal, and healthy throughout the study. There was no observed mortality or any signs of toxicity during the experimental period. The effects of the TQRFNE and DW groups on general behavior, body weight, food and water consumption, relative organ weight, hematology, histopathology, and clinical biochemistry were measured. All the parameters measured were unaffected as compared to the control (DW) group. The administration of 20 mL TQRFNE /kg was not toxic after an acute exposure.
