[PMID: 38845041 PMCID: PMC11155157 DOI: 10.1186/s42826-024-00209-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to develop a technique for quantitative determination of rat urine metabolites by HPLC-MS/MS, which can be used to search for biomarkers of acute intoxication with organophosphates (OPs). RESULTS The content of metabolites in the urine of rats exposed to a single dose of paraoxon (POX1x); interval, twice daily administration of paraoxon (POX2x); exposure to 2-(o-cresyl)-4H-1, 3, 2-benzodioxaphosphorin-2-oxide and paraoxon (CBPOX) was investigated. New data were obtained on the content in the urine of intact rats as well as rats in 3 models of OP poisoning: 3-methylhistidine, threonine, creatine, creatinine, lactic acid, acetylcarnitine, inosine, hypoxanthine, adenine, 3-hydroxymethyl-butyrate and 2-hydroxymethyl-butyrate. CONCLUSIONS The proposed assay procedure is a simple and reliable tool for urine metabolomic studies. Within 1-3 days after OP exposure in all three models of acute intoxication, the concentration of metabolites in rat urine, with the exception of adenine, changes similarly and symmetrically, regardless of the method of poisoning modeling, in all three models of acute intoxication. Further studies are needed to determine the specificity and reliability of using urinary metabolite concentration changes as potential biomarkers of acute organophosphate intoxication.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the effects of dietary supplementation of inosine-5'-monophosphate (5'-IMP) on energy efficiency, growth performance, carcass characteristics, meat quality, oxidative status, and biochemical profile of blood plasma in finishing pigs. Fifty-four crossbred castrated male pigs were distributed in a randomized block design consisting of nine blocks, with six treatments per block and one animal per treatment per block. Experimental diets were as follows: positive control diet (PC, 3300 kcal ME/kg), negative control diet (NC, 3200 kcal ME/kg), and four diets prepared by supplementing the NC diet with 0.050%, 0.100%, 0.150%, or 0.200% 5'-IMP. Based on regression analysis, supplementation with 0.129% 5'-IMP increased average daily weight gain (1.30 kg). Backfat thickness, pH45minutes and redness of m. Longissimus Lumborum (LL) increased linearly with 5'-IMP supplementation level. Drip loss and pH at 24 h post-slaughter had a quadratic response to 5'-IMP supplementation. It is concluded that 5'-IMP supplementation positively influenced growth performance, carcass characteristics and LL meat quality in finishing barrows.

Abstract
Inosine 5'-monophosphate (5'-IMP) is an essential nucleotide for de novo nucleotide biosynthesis and metabolism of energy, proteins, and antioxidants. Nucleotides are conditionally essential, as they cannot be produced sufficiently rapidly to meet the needs of the body in situations of oxidative stress or rapid muscle growth. A deficient intake of nucleotides can result in decreased ATP and GTP synthesis and impaired metabolism. We demonstrated that supplementation of finishing pig diets with 5'-IMP reduces the relative weight of the liver, and increases oxygen consumption during mitochondrial respiration without changing the ADP/O ratio, indicating an increase in the respiratory efficiency of liver mitochondria. We also observed a reduction in liver lipid peroxidation and an increase in muscle creatine. Moreover, 5'IMP supplementation increases slaughter weight, lean meat yield, sarcomere length, and backfat thickness in finishing barrows, demonstrating influence on protein metabolism. We suggest that 5'-IMP supplementation increase the mitochondrial respiratory capacity when the liver metabolic activity is stimulated, enhances antioxidant defense, and promotes muscle growth in finishing barrows.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adenosine attenuates skeletal muscle reperfusion injury, but its short half-life in vivo limits potential therapeutic benefits. The aim of this study was to ascertain whether inosine, a stable adenosine metabolite, modulates skeletal muscle reperfusion injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS C57BL/6 mice were randomized (8-10 per group) to six groups: time controls; inosine (100 mg/kg) before anesthesia; 2 h of bilateral tourniquet hindlimb ischemia; I/R (2 h of bilateral tourniquet hindlimb ischemia, 3 h of reperfusion); inosine (100 mg/kg) before I/R; drug vehicle before I/R. Serum tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-2 were measured before ischemia and at the end of reperfusion. Tissue edema was determined by wet/dry weight ratios. Tissue leucosequestration was assessed by the myeloperoxidase (MPO) content. RESULTS At the end of reperfusion, inosine pretreatment resulted in lower MPO levels in muscle (P = 0.02) and lung (P = 0.0002) than saline pretreatment. Similarly, muscle (P = 0.04) and lung (P = 0.02) wet/dry ratios were significantly reduced with inosine but not with saline pretreatment. At the end of reperfusion, serum proinflammatory cytokine levels (TNF-alpha and MIP-2) were significantly reduced (P < 0.05) compared to preischemia levels following inosine pretreatment but not saline pretreatment. Ischemia alone did not alter any of the parameters assessed. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrate that pretreatment with inosine attenuates the local and systemic proinflammatory responses associated with skeletal muscle reperfusion injury.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetic parameters of peldesine (BCX-34) were investigated after single and multiple oral doses in two groups of healthy adult volunteers. The pharmacodynamic elevation of endogenous inosine and 2'-deoxyguanosine was simultaneously monitored. The first group of 8 subjects received an intravenous dose (18 mg/m2) and five oral doses (30, 63, 108, 144, and 192 mg/m2) of drug. A second group of 12 subjects received 160 mg/m2 in four and in six divided doses orally. Serial blood samples and total urine outputs were collected during dosing and for at least 24 hours after the last dose was administered. One set of samples was analyzed using high-pressure liquid chromatography/ultraviolet (LC/UV) methods, validated for intact drug in human plasma and urine samples. Another set of samples was analyzed for the biomarkers, inosine and 2'-deoxyguanosine, using high-pressure LC with either mass spectrometry (MS) or electrochemical detection (EC) methods. The pharmacokinetic parameters of inosine and 2'-deoxyguanosine were calculated using noncompartmental methods and correlated against the pharmacokinetic parameters of BCX-34. For the single-dose study, the results exhibited linear pharmacokinetics over the dose range from 30 to 144 mg/m2. The calculated terminal half-life was 3.5 +/- 1.0 h, and the absolute bioavailability of the oral formulation was approximately 51%. Analysis of urine in the first 24 hours of collection accounted for approximately 82% of the absorbed intact drug. Evaluation of the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics indicated that steady-state blood concentrations were achieved by 24 hours when the drug was administered four or six times a day. A drug dose-related elevation of plasma 2'-deoxyguanosine was observed. This phenomenon was not seen with plasma inosine levels. However, analysis of urine samples showed an increase in inosine output with an increase in the drug dose. The calculated terminal half-life of inosine and 2'-deoxyguanosine was 15.3 +/- 1.8 h and 1.3 +/- 0.1 h, respectively.

Abstract
Adenosine-degrading enzymes within the liver lobule can modulate both vascular and metabolic effects of circulating adenosine in the liver. Since it has not been fully established whether nonparenchymal cells participate in the elimination of sinusoidal purines, isolated Kupffer cells and endothelial cells were tested for their capacity to degrade extracellular purines. After perfusion and digestion of rat livers by collagenase, the resulting mixed cell population was separated by centrifugal elutriation. The isolated parenchymal and nonparenchymal cells were incubated for up to 2 hr in the presence of [8(-14)C]adenosine, [8(-14)C]guanosine and [8(-14)C]hypoxanthine (50 mumoles per liter). In the deproteinized medium, adenosine, guanosine, inosine, adenine, guanine, xanthine, hypoxanthine, uric acid and allantoin were separated by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Radioactive peaks were collected and counted. Nonparenchymal cells catalyzed the degradation of adenosine into inosine and hypoxanthine. However, the formation of xanthine, uric acid or allantoin from adenosine could only be detected in hepatocyte suspensions. Within 15 min, adenosine was completely eliminated from the medium by Kupffer cells, whereas endothelial cells catabolized only less than half of the initial amount of the adenine nucleoside during this time period. Accordingly, incubation of nonparenchymal cells in the presence of hypoxanthine did not result in the formation of further breakdown products of the purine, whereas its catabolites slowly accumulated in the medium of hepatocytes. Guanosine conversion into guanine and xanthine was much slower in endothelial cells as compared to Kupffer cells and hepatocytes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Previous investigations have demonstrated that the high energy phosphate and adenine nucleotide content of wounded tissue are decreased. Purine metabolism was investigated in incubated lambda-carrageenan wounded skeletal muscle and in muscle exposed to peritoneal macrophages or macrophage-conditioned media. Wounded muscle released predominately uric acid into the incubation medium; whereas, nonwounded muscle released inosine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine as well as uric acid. Macrophages incubated with nonwounded muscle changed the purine release pattern toward one of wounded muscle. The conversion of inosine to allantoin and uric acid by macrophages increased linearly with the addition of up to 1 X 10(7) macrophages per incubation. Muscles incubated in macrophage-conditioned media had a decreased release of inosine and hypoxanthine and higher tissue levels of creatine phosphate, ATP, ADP, AMP, and adenosine compared to muscles incubated in standard media. These data suggest that the macrophage determines the pattern of purine release from wounded skeletal muscle in the incubated system and that in conditioned media a high energy phosphate promoting factor may exert its effect by mechanisms that augment the adenine purine pool.
