Population pharmacokinetics and humanized dosage regimens matching the peak, area, trough, and range of amikacin plasma concentrations in immune-competent murine bloodstream and lung infection models.

Abstract
Amikacin is an FDA-approved aminoglycoside antibiotic that is commonly used. However, validated dosage regimens that achieve clinically relevant exposure profiles in mice are lacking. We aimed to design and validate humanized dosage regimens for amikacin in immune-competent murine bloodstream and lung infection models of Acinetobacter baumannii. Plasma and lung epithelial lining fluid (ELF) concentrations after single subcutaneous doses of 1.37, 13.7, and 137 mg/kg of body weight were simultaneously modeled via population pharmacokinetics. Then, humanized amikacin dosage regimens in mice were designed and prospectively validated to match the peak, area, trough, and range of plasma concentration profiles in critically ill patients (clinical dose: 25-30 mg/kg of body weight). The pharmacokinetics of amikacin were linear, with a clearance of 9.93 mL/h in both infection models after a single dose. However, the volume of distribution differed between models, resulting in an elimination half-life of 48 min for the bloodstream and 36 min for the lung model. The drug exposure in ELF was 72.7% compared to that in plasma. After multiple q6h dosing, clearance decreased by ~80% from the first (7.35 mL/h) to the last two dosing intervals (~1.50 mL/h) in the bloodstream model. Likewise, clearance decreased by 41% from 7.44 to 4.39 mL/h in the lung model. The humanized dosage regimens were 117 mg/kg of body weight/day in mice [administered in four fractions 6 h apart (q6h): 61.9%, 18.6%, 11.3%, and 8.21% of total dose] for the bloodstream and 96.7 mg/kg of body weight/day (given q6h as 65.1%, 16.9%, 10.5%, and 7.41%) for the lung model. These validated humanized dosage regimens and population pharmacokinetic models support translational studies with clinically relevant amikacin exposure profiles.

Abstract
The bladder supports a diversity of macrophage populations with functional roles related to homeostasis and host defense, including clearance of cell debris from tissue, immune surveillance, and inflammatory responses. This review examines these roles with particular attention given to macrophage origins, differentiation, recruitment, and engagement in host defense against urinary tract infections (UTIs), where these cells recognize uropathogens through a combination of receptor-mediated responses. Time is an important variable that is often overlooked in many clinical and biological studies, including in relation to macrophages and UTIs. Given that ageing is a significant factor in urinary tract infection pathogenesis and macrophages have been shown to harbor their own circadian system, this review also explores the influence of age on macrophage functions and the role of diurnal variations in macrophage functions in host defense and inflammation during UTIs. We provide a conceptual framework for future studies that address these key knowledge gaps.

Abstract
The circadian time structure (CTS) and its disruption by rotating and nightshift schedules relative to work performance, accident risk, and health/wellbeing have long been areas of occupational medicine research. Yet, there has been little exploration of the relevance of the CTS to setting short-term, time-weighted, and ceiling threshold limit values (TLVs); conducting employee biological monitoring (BM); and establishing normative reference biological exposure indices (BEIs). Numerous publications during the past six decades document the CTS substantially affects the disposition - absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination - and effects of medications. Additionally, laboratory animal and human studies verify the tolerance to chemical, biological (contagious), and physical agents can differ extensively according to the circadian time of exposure. Because of slow and usually incomplete CTS adjustment by rotating and permanent nightshift workers, occupational chemical and other contaminant encounters occur during a different circadian stage than for dayshift workers. Thus, the intended protection of some TLVs when working the nightshift compared to dayshift might be insufficient, especially in high-risk settings. The CTS is germane to employee BM in that large-amplitude predictable-in-time 24h variation can occur in the concentration of urine, blood, and saliva of monitored chemical contaminants and their metabolites plus biomarkers indicative of adverse xenobiotic exposure. The concept of biological time-qualified (for rhythms) reference values, currently of interest to clinical laboratory pathology practice, is seemingly applicable to industrial medicine as circadian time and workshift-specific BEIs to improve surveillance of night workers, in particular. Furthermore, BM as serial assessments performed frequently both during and off work, exemplified by employee self-measurement of lung function using a small portable peak expiratory flow meter, can easily identify intolerance before induction of pathology.

Abstract
Background hospitalized patients with serious infections treated with aminoglycosides are at risk of developing nephrotoxicity. Previous clinical studies have shown that the pharmacokinetics of aminoglycosides in humans follow a circadian rhythm. Therefore, the time of administration could have important clinical implications with respect to the risk of developing aminoglycoside-associated nephrotoxicity in patients treated with once daily dosing regimens. Objective To examine the effect of the time period of administration on aminoglycoside exposure and the incidence of nephrotoxicity in a large population of hospitalized patients with serious infections. Setting General ward and intensive care unit of a teaching hospital. Method In this retrospective cohort study, patients treated with intravenous tobramycin or gentamicin were eligible for inclusion. Patients were divided into three groups by time of administration: morning, afternoon and night. Main outcome measure Pharmacokinetic parameters and the incidences of nephrotoxicity were compared between the morning, afternoon and evening groups. Results 310 general ward and 411 intensive care unit patients were included. No significant differences were found in patient characteristics between the morning, afternoon and night groups. The time period of administration did not affect aminoglycoside pharmacokinetics or the incidence of nephrotoxicity. Conclusion The time of administration has no effect on the pharmacokinetics or nephrotoxicity of once daily dosed aminoglycosides in hospitalized patients. Consequently, we advise aminoglycosides to be administered as soon as possible in case of (suspected) severe hospital-acquired infections and subsequent dosages to be based on therapeutic drug monitoring to optimize the efficacy/toxicity balance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the once daily dosing (ODD) program in critically ill Egyptian patients compared to individualized multiple daily dosing (MDD) in terms of clinical and bacteriological efficacy. In addition, the incidence of nephrotoxicity associated with both regimens in this specific group of patients was assessed. METHODS Fifty-two patients with suspected or confirmed bacterial infections admitted to the Critical Care Medicine Department, Kasr El-Aini-Cairo University Hospitals comprised the study population. The amikacin group (30 patients) was sub-divided into 14 patients receiving amikacin ODD (1 g i.v.) and 16 patients receiving amikacin in MDD (500 mg i.v./dose). The gentamicin group (22 patients) was sub-divided into 10 patients receiving the drug ODD (240 mg i.v.) and 12 patients receiving gentamicin MDD (80 mg i.v./dose). Amikacin or gentamicin serum levels were determined by the enzyme multiplied immunoassay technique using Emit 2000. MDD regimen was adjusted based on the individual pharmacokinetic parameters using the Sawchuk-Zaske method. RESULTS There was no significant difference between the two dosing regimens with regard to clinical and antibacterial efficacy or incidence of nephrotoxicity of both gentamicin and amikacin groups. In the ODD regimen, duration of treatment had no effect on increasing incidence of nephrotoxicity unlike the individualized MDD regimen. No dose adjustments were needed in the once daily dosing regimen since trough concentrations have never been above toxic level. CONCLUSIONS The study showed that the ODD regimen is preferred in critically ill patients to individualized MDD as shown by comparable efficacy, nephrotoxicity and lesser need for therapeutic drug monitoring and frequent dose adjustments required in the individualized MDD regimen.

Abstract
Aminoglycosides remains the mainstay in the treatment of gram-negative infections despite their potential oto-and nephrotoxicity although alternatives with equal or better efficacy are available. Several approaches were investigated to decrease aminoglycosides nephrotoxicity. Among them, only the once-daily dosing of aminoglycosides has been brought to the clinic and physicians are now increasingly adopting this approach to reduce the toxicity of these agents. The incidence of aminoglycoside nephrotoxicity can be further reduced in view of the recent data on the circadian variations of their nephrotoxicity. In fact, it has been clearly demonstrated in both experimental animals and humans that the toxicity is maximal when the drug is injected during the rest period compared with the activity period. Thus, injecting aminoglycosides once-daily at the time of the lowest toxicity is actually the most interesting and clinically applicable approach to reduce aminoglycosides toxicity.

Abstract
Circadian variations in disposition have been observed for a variety of agents, including anticonvulsants. Valproic acid (VPA), an anticonvulsant used to control generalized and partial seizures, has exhibited diurnal oscillations in steady-state concentrations during long-term administration to humans and non-human primates. The present study was conducted to assess potential diurnal changes in the disposition of VPA during prolonged i.v. infusion in rats. Animals, maintained on a strict 12-h per day light cycle, were equipped with venous cannulae and an arterial microdialysis probe. VPA was administered as a 50-mg/kg loading dose followed by a 42 mg/kg/h infusion for 70 h. Blood and microdialysate samples were obtained at timed intervals after establishment of steady-state throughout two complete light/dark cycles; and total (serum) and unbound (microdialysate) VPA was determined by gas chromatography. Modest oscillations (6-7 h period) in total and unbound VPA were observed; clearance and binding parameters were not different between light and dark periods. However, unbound clearance increased, and unbound fraction decreased, with time over the course of the infusion. These results suggest that time-dependent changes in VPA disposition occur in rats, although oscillations in steady-state concentrations do not appear to be diurnal in nature.

Abstract
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial infections in humans. Even though physicians have been treating UTIs for 60 years, there has been no standardized approach regarding the rational choice of antimicrobial agents and optimal treatment duration for these infections. This review discusses the pharmacologic basis for the treatment of UTIs. Although most antibiotics concentrate well in the urine and can eradicate most of the sensitive uropathogens that cause lower UTI, antibiotics given for the treatment of pyelonephritis must concentrate and kill bacteria embedded within the renal parenchyma. Investigators once believed that antibiotics must concentrate in sufficient amounts in the urine of infected patients to be effective in treating pyelonephritis. In fact, the efficacy of an antibiotic in the treatment of pyelonephritis is proportional to its capacity to converge in high concentration not only in urine but also in the renal parenchyma because serum and urine levels of antibiotics are poor predictors of the intrarenal levels. Other factors should also be taken into consideration in the management of UTIs, such as the time of day antibiotics are given because significant time-dependent differences have been observed in the pharmacokinetics and rate of excretion in urine of several antibiotics. Finally, the authors review the recent development in the inflammatory response in the urinary tract that may explain the clinical features of UTI and may be useful in the diagnosis as well as better management of UTI.

Abstract
Temporal variations in the renal toxicity of aminoglycosides have been reported for experimental animals as well as for humans. In fact, maximal renal toxicity of aminoglycosides was observed when the drug was given during the rest period, while a lower toxicity was observed when the drug was injected during the activity period. The aim of the present study was to evaluate temporal variations in the effectiveness and renal toxicity of gentamicin in an experimental model of pyelonephritis in rats. The experiments were carried out with female Sprague-Dawley rats (185 to 250 g). They had free access to food and water throughout the study and were maintained on a 14-h light-10-h dark cycle. Animals were divided into four groups corresponding to the respective time of induction of pyelonephritis and treatment: 0700, 1300, 1900, and 0100 h. Pyelonephritis was induced by a direct inoculation of Escherichia coli (10(7) to 10(8) CFU) in the left kidney. Animals were treated for 3 and 7 days with a single daily dose of gentamicin (20 and 40 mg/kg of body weight, respectively) or saline (NaCl, 0.9%) at either 0700, 1300, 1900, or 0100 h. Animals treated at 0100 h for 3 days with gentamicin (20 mg/kg) showed a significantly lower number of bacteria in their kidneys than did all other groups (P < 0.01). After 7 days of treatment, the efficacy, evaluated by the log CFU per gram of tissue and by the percentage of sterilized kidneys, was also higher when gentamicin was administered at 0100 h. The beta-galactosidase and the N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase activities were significantly higher in urine of rats given gentamicin at 1300 h than in urine of rats treated at another time of day (P < 0.05). Gentamicin injected at 1300 h induced a significantly greater increase of [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA of renal cortex (P < 0.01), a significantly greater inhibition of sphingomyelinase activity (P < 0.05), and significantly more histopathological lesions than the same dose injected at another time of the day. Creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels in serum were significantly higher (P < 0.05) and the creatinine clearance was significantly lower (P < 0.05) when gentamicin was injected at 1300 h than when it was injected at another time of day. Our data suggest temporal variations in both the toxicity and the effectiveness of gentamicin, the drug being more effective and less toxic when injected during the activity period of the animals.

Abstract
The existence of temporal variation in biliary excretion has been demonstrated for dibromosulfophthalein and ampicillin (AMP). This study was performed to investigate if the 24 h rhythm of active AMP biliary secretion could be attributed to circadian rhythms in the capacity and/or binding affinity of the active secretion mechanism. In this study, 12 Sprague-Dawley rats, housed under a 12 h light/12 h dark environment, were used. Each rat received four 1 h infusions of incremental doses of AMP during either the active (24:00 group) or rest phase (12:00 group) under pentobarbital anesthesia. High doses of AMP were administered to saturate the biliary secretion of AMP via the anion carrier system. Bile and plasma were collected at steady state for each infusion and analyzed by a microbiological assay. The systemic clearance of AMP was increased approximately twofold during the active phase (24:00 group) compared to the resting phase (12:00 group). Plots of bile excretion rate versus plasma concentration indicated saturation of the anion carrier system. Analysis of the data using the Michaelis-Menten model revealed no significant difference in the binding affinity (1/Km) of the biliary anion carrier system between the 12:00 and 24:00 groups. However, the maximum AMP excretion rate attained in the bile (maximum transport or Vmax) showed a 50% increase during the active phase, thus implicating a day-night variation in transport capacity of the anionic pathway. Therefore, temporal variation in the capacity of the secretory mechanisms is a determinant contributor to the proposed circadian rhythm observed in the biliary elimination of AMP.

Abstract
The effect of timing of gentamicin dosing relative to food access periods was evaluated in experimental animals. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were treated for 4 and 10 days with gentamicin (40 mg/kg of body weight/day) intraperitoneally at either 0700, 1300, 1900, or 0100 h according to three food presentation schedules: food was available from 0800 to 1600 h in the first group, from 1600 to 0000 h in the second group, and from 0000 to 0800 h in the last group. Animals were thus subjected to a restricted feeding period. Results indicate that time-restricted feeding schedules displace the peak and the trough of gentamicin-induced renal toxicity, as evaluated by changes in the inhibition of sphingomyelinase activity, cellular regeneration (incorporation of [3H]thymidine into DNA of renal cortex), and blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels, as well as histopathological lesions observed after 10 days of treatment. In fact, the toxicity was minimal when gentamicin was injected during the feeding period, while the maximal toxicity was found when gentamicin was administered during the fasting period. It is concluded that the feeding period can modulate aminoglycoside nephrotoxicity. The time of dosing of gentamicin relative to the time of feeding seems to be a more important modulator of gentamicin nephrotoxicity than the light-dark cycle.

Abstract
Animals show a faster clearance and a lower incidence of nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity when aminoglycosides are administered during the activity period. Human data on a circadian rhythm in pharmacokinetics are conflicting, and there are no data on a circadian rhythm in toxicity. When aminoglycosides are administered once daily, as is often done, a circadian rhythm in pharmacokinetics or toxicity could have clinical implications. In a prospective study we investigated the influence of drug administration time on serum drug levels and the incidence of nephrotoxicity in 221 patients with serious infections treated with gentamicin or tobramycin once daily. We did not find statistically significant differences in trough or peak levels for the three time periods (midnight to 7:30 AM, 8 AM to 3:30 PM, and 4 to 11:30 PM). Nephrotoxicity occurred significantly more frequently when the aminoglycosides were administered during the rest period (midnight to 7:30 AM; p = 0.004). In addition to the coadministration of high-dose furosemide or other nephrotoxic antibiotics and the duration of treatment, the time of administration was still an independent risk factor in a multivariate analysis.

Abstract
The effects of short-term food deprivation on the serum and renal distribution and nephrotoxicity of tobramycin were studied in female Sprague-Dawley rats maintained on a 14-h light/10-h dark cycle (light on: 06:00). For the distribution study, a single injection of tobramycin (40 mg/kg, i.p.) was administered at 14:00 or 02:00 to normally fed animals or to animals fasted for 12 h before tobramycin injection; these treatment times correspond to the peak and trough of tobramycin nephrotoxicity as previously determined in other studies. The serum and cortical levels of tobramycin were significantly higher 60, 120, and 240 min after the injection in fasted animals treated at 02:00 compared with normally fed animals treated at the same time (p < 0.05). In animals injected at 14:00, similar levels of tobramycin were measured in both fasted and fed rats. In the nephrotoxicity study, female Sprague-Dawley rats were fasted for 12 h before and 24 h after the timed single injection of tobramycin (150 mg/kg, i.p.). The 24-h urinary excretion of beta-galactosidase was significantly higher in fasted animals treated at 02:00 than in fed rats treated at the same time of day. Seventy-two hours following tobramycin injection, serum creatinine levels and cortical levels of tobramycin were significantly higher in fasted rats treated at 14:00 than at 02:00 and in fed rats treated at 14:00. These data suggest that a short period of food deprivation modulates the temporal variations of tobramycin nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
Evidence for temporal variations in the nephrotoxicity of low doses of aminoglycosides were recently shown by using specific and sensitive parameters of renal toxicity. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of a short period of fasting on the temporal variations in the renal toxicity of gentamicin. Twenty-eight normally fed (i.e., food and water were available ad libitum throughout the experiment) female Sprague-Dawley rats (weight, 175 to 220 g) and 28 fasted rats (i.e., only water was available during a 12-h fast before and a 24-h fast after gentamicin injection) were used. The animals were synchronized on a 14-h light, 10-h dark cycle (lights on at 0600 h) for 1 week before gentamicin administration. In July 1993, each group of animals was treated with a single intraperitoneal injection of saline (NaCl, 0.9%) or gentamicin (150 mg/kg of body weight) at either the peak (1400 h) or the trough (0200 h) of the previously determined toxicity. On day 1, the 24-h urinary excretion of beta-galactosidase, N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase, and gamma-glutamyltransferase was significantly higher in normally fed animals treated with gentamicin at 1400 h than in their time-matched controls and in normally fed animals treated at 0200 h (P < 0.01), which had normal levels of these enzymes. By contrast, the urinary excretion of these enzymes was significantly higher in both groups of gentamicin-treated, fasted rats than in their time-matched control groups (P < 0.01), reaching levels similar to those measured in normally fed rats treated at 1400 h. The accumulation of gentamicin was significantly lower in the renal cortex of normally fed rats treated at 0200 h than in rats treated at 1400 h (P < 0.05), but this time-dependent difference was not found in fasted rats treated at 0200 and 1400 h. Immunogold labeling done on ultrathin sections and observed by electron microscopy showed a similar subcellular localization of gentamicin in normally fed and fasted rats treated at either 1400 or 0200 h. These results suggest that the feeding period is of crucial importance in the temporal variations of the nephrotoxicity of gentamicin in rats.

Abstract
The temporal variation in the nephrotoxicity of low doses of isepamicin was studied in male Sprague-Dawley rats treated with a single daily intraperitoneal injection of saline (NaCl, 0.9%) or isepamicin (80 mg/kg of body weight) at either 0800, 1400, 2000, or 0200 h for 4 and 10 days. On day 10, the cellular regeneration (incorporation of [3H] thymidine into DNA of renal cortex) and cortical accumulation of isepamicin were significantly higher in animals treated at 1400 h than at 0200 h (P < 0.01). Immunogold labeling studies showed that isepamicin was essentially localized in the lysosomes of proximal tubular cells in all treated groups, but the density of the gold particles over the lysosomes was higher in animals treated at 1400 than at 0200 h. The results of the present study show that the renal toxicity of isepamicin was maximal at 1400 h (midlight period) and minimal at 0200 h (middark period).
