Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly used medications to treat acid-related conditions, including gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD). Gastroenterology guidelines mention the importance of CYP2C19 in PPI metabolism and the influence of CYP2C19 genetic variations on variable responses to PPIs, but do not currently recommend the genotyping of CYP2C19 prior to prescribing PPIs. There are strong data to support the influence of CYP2C19 genetic variations on the pharmacokinetics of PPIs and clinical outcomes. Existing pharmacogenetic guideline recommendations for dose increases focus on H. pylori and erosive esophagitis indications, but PPIs are also the main therapy for treating GERD. Recent data suggest GERD patients being treated with a PPI may also benefit from genotype-guided dosing. We summarize the literature supporting this contention and highlight future directions for improved management of patients with GERD through precision medicine approaches.

Abstract
4-Nitrophenylacetylene-functionalized Cu2O rhombic dodecahedra and cubes have been used to photocatalyze aryl sulfide oxidation generating aryl sulfoxides. With an oxygen supply and light from a blue light-emitting diode (LED), the reaction can be completed in 12 h with a water and methanol mixed solution. Generally high product yields and excellent product selectivity of sulfoxides over sulfones were achieved. In particular, a thioanisole to methyl phenyl sulfoxide yield of 98% was obtained. A mechanistic study has revealed that photogenerated electrons, holes, and superoxide radicals are involved in the oxidation reaction. The benefit of simple photocatalyst preparation and molecular functionalization to boost catalytic performance shows that surface-controlled ionic solids can be very effective photocatalysts for some organic transformations.

Abstract
Tenatoprazole, a newly developed proton pump inhibitor candidate, was developed as an acid inhibitor for gastric acid hypersecretion disorders such as gastric ulcer and reflux esophagitis. It is known that tenatoprazole is metabolized to three major metabolites of 5'-hydroxy tenatoprazole, tenatoprazole sulfide, and tenatoprazole sulfone in human liver, primarily catalyzed by CYPs 2C19 and 3A4. While CYP2C19 prefers the hydroxylation of tenatoprazole at C-5' position, CYP3A4 is mainly involved in sulfoxidation reaction to make tenatoprazole sulfone. Tenatoprazole sulfide is a major human metabolite of tenatoprazole and is formed spontaneously and non-enzymatically from tenatoprazole. However, its metabolic fate in the human liver is not fully known. Furthermore, no systematic metabolic study has been performed to study tenatoprazole or tenatoprazole sulfide. Here, we studied the functions of human cytochromes P450 in the metabolic pathway of tenatoprazole and tenatoprazole sulfide by using recombinant human P450s and human liver microsomes. Both CYP 2C19 and CYP3A4 showed distinct regioselective and stereospecific monooxygenation activities toward tenatoprazole and tenatoprazole sulfide. Furthermore, a new major metabolite of tenatoprazole sulfide was found, 1'-N-oxy-5'-hydroxytenatoprzole sulfide, which has never been reported. In conclusion, the metabolic fates of tenatoprazole and tenatoprazole sulfide should be considered in the clinical use of tenatoprazole.

Abstract
Acid suppression is the primary therapy for erosive esophagitis (EE). Although proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are considered as the first-line medication for EE, 10-20% of patients with Los Angeles C and D grade EE do not gain complete mucosal healing and symptom control despite 8-week double-dose PPI treatment. Vonoprazan is a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB), which blocks the H+, K+-adenosine triphosphatase enzymes in a K+-competitive and reversible manner. Vonoprazan exhibits different pharmacological and pharmacokinetic profiles from conventional PPIs, and has a rapid, potent and sustained acid inhibitory effect. In this review, we summarized and discussed current evidence regarding the role of vonoprazan in terms of mucosal healing, maintaining remission and symptom relief for the management of EE, including the initial and maintenance treatment of EE, as well as for PPI-resistant EE patients. Safety concerns and cost-effectiveness analysis of vonoprazan were also mentioned in the article. As a potent and well-tolerated acid blocker, vonoprazan has the potential to become a novel option for the management of EE.

Abstract
Esomeprazole magnesium (EMP) is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces acid secretion. EMP has a short plasma half-life (approximately 1.3 h); hence, nocturnal acid breakthrough (NAB) frequently occurs, disturbing the patient’s nighttime comfort and sleep. We aimed to develop a novel esomeprazole magnesium-loaded dual-release mini-tablet polycap (DR polycap) with a prolonged onset time and improved bioavailability to prevent NAB. The formulation of the EPM mini-tablet core resulted in rapid drug release. The core was coated with an inner coating and an Eudragit® L30D-55 aqueous dispersion coating to prepare the first-release mini-tablet. In addition, the core was coated with an inner coating and an aqueous dispersion of Eudragit® S100 and Eudragit® L100 coating to prepare the second-release mini-tablet. Each mini-tablet type was characterized using an in vitro dissolution test and microscopic examination. After testing, 10 of each mini-tablets were placed together in hard capsules to form DR polycaps. The combination of mini-tablets was optimized via in vitro release testing and in vivo pharmacokinetic studies. The AUC0–24h of the DR polycap was similar to that of a comparable commercial product (Nexium®); Cmax was lower by approximately 50%, and Tmax was extended by approximately 1.7-fold. In conclusion, DR polycap is an alternative to commercial products with improved NAB and dosing compliance because of its dual-release characteristics.

Abstract
Ubrogepant is a calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor antagonist for the acute treatment of migraine. Esomeprazole magnesium increases intragastric pH, which may affect oral ubrogepant absorption. This open-label, nonrandomized, crossover trial evaluated esomeprazole magnesium's impact on the pharmacokinetics and safety of coadministered ubrogepant in healthy adults. Participants received ubrogepant 100 mg on day 1, esomeprazole magnesium 40 mg on days 9 to 13, and ubrogepant 100 mg with esomeprazole magnesium 40 mg on day 14. No effect on ubrogepant pharmacokinetics was concluded if 90% confidence intervals of geometric mean ratios were within 80% to 125% for comparison of pharmacokinetic parameters between ubrogepant + esomeprazole magnesium versus ubrogepant alone. Thirty participants enrolled (mean age, 31.7 years; 53.3% males). Ubrogepant peak plasma concentration (Cmax ) decreased 23%, time to Cmax increased by 1.5 hours, and area under the plasma concentration-time curve was reduced by ≈10% when coadministered with esomeprazole magnesium versus ubrogepant alone. The 90% confidence interval of the geometric mean ratio for Cmax did not fall within the 80% to 125% equivalence range, but the decrease was not considered clinically meaningful. Esomeprazole magnesium coadministered with ubrogepant did not increase the incidence rate of treatment-emergent adverse events, and interactions between the medications are likely to have limited clinical relevance.

Abstract
The long-term use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) can lead to increased gastric pH, hypochlorhydria and in some cases to achlorhydria when compared to other acid-suppressing agents like histamine-2 (H2) receptor blockers and antacids. These consequences by the use of long-term PPIs may lead to significant vitamin (B12 and C) and mineral (iron, calcium and magnesium) deficiencies which needs gastric acid for their absorption and bioavailability. Long-term use of PPIs by the pregnant patients may impose a potential risk of congenital malformations. Various studies have recommended the life style modifications and antacid use as first choice among pregnant womens by preserving PPIs (omeprazole as a safe choice of PPI) for severe conditions of gastroesophageal reflux disease. The long-term acid suppression by PPIs can also lead to enteric, respiratory and urinary tract infections. The hypochlorhydria by chronic PPIs use may induce hypergastrinemia, which ultimately mediates the gastric polyps, gastric carcinoids and gastric cancer. The concomitant use of PPIs with antiplatelet drugs like clopidogrel can impose the patients to major adverse cardiac events. This review has enlisted the comprehensive information regarding the adverse effects induced by long-term use of PPIs and their possible relations. Considerable studies like case-control, randomized trials, cohort studies and meta-analysis were reported in supporting these adverse effects. The clinicians and patients should be cautious about these effects so that they can avoid the serious outcomes. PPIs should be avoided for long-term use mainly in older adults unless there is a proper indication.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors are the reference standards for the treatment of acid-related diseases. Acid suppression in gastroesophageal reflux disease is associated with a high rate of mucosal cicatrization, but symptom response differs among endoscopic phenotypes. Extraesophageal manifestations have a good clinical response in patients that present with abnormal acid exposure (diagnostic test) in the esophagus. Proton pump inhibitors have shown their effectiveness for reducing symptom intensity in nighttime reflux and sleep disorders, improving quality of life and work productivity. That can sometimes be achieved through dose modifications by splitting or increasing the dose, or through galenic formulation. Proton pump inhibitors are not exempt from controversial aspects related to associated adverse events. Technological development is directed at improving proton pump inhibitor performance through increasing the half-life, maximum concentration, and area under the curve of the plasma concentrations through galenic formulation, as well as creating safer and more tolerable drugs. The present review is focused on the mechanisms of action, pharmacokinetic properties, and technological advances for increasing the pharmacologic performance of a proton pump inhibitor.

Abstract
Although proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used, their relative potency and ideal dosing regimens remain unclear. We analyzed data from randomized clinical trials that performed pH testing in patients receiving solid-dose PPI formulations (omeprazole, esomeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole) for a minimum of 5 days. We used omeprazole equivalency and the surrogate biomarker, percentage time pH > 4 over a 24-hour period (pH4time), to compare PPI effectiveness for different PPIs given once, twice, or 3 times daily. We found that increasing strength of once-daily PPIs (9-64 mg omeprazole equivalents) increased pH4time linearly from approximately 10.0 to 15.6 hours; higher doses produced no further increase in pH4time. Increasing the frequency to twice-daily PPI increased pH4time linearly, from approximately 15.8 to 21.0 hours. Three-times daily PPIs performed similarly to twice-daily PPIs. The costs of PPIs varied greatly, but the cost variation was not directly related to potency. We conclude that PPIs can be used interchangeably based on potency. Using twice-daily PPIs is more effective in increasing efficacy increasing once-daily PPI dosage. Omeprazole and lansoprazole (30 mg) and 20 mg of esomeprazole rabeprazole are functionally equivalent.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The discovery of Helicobacter pylori and other organisms colonizing the stomach and the intestines has shed some light on the importance of microbiome in maintaining overall health and developing pathological conditions when alterations in biodiversity are present. The gastric acidity plays a crucial role in filtering out bacteria and preventing development of enteric infections. In this article, we discuss the physiology of gastric acid secretion and bacterial contribution to the composition of gastric and intestinal barriers and review the current literature on the role of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) in the microbial biodiversity of the gastrointestinal tract. RECENT FINDINGS Culture-independent techniques, such as 16S rRNA sequencing, have revolutionized our understanding of the microbial biodiversity in the gastrointestinal tract. Luminal and mucosa-associated microbial populations are not identical. Streptococcus is overrepresented in the biopsies of patients with antral gastritis and may also be responsible for the development of peptic ulcer disease. The use of PPIs favors relative streptococcal abundance irrespective of H. pylori status and may explain the persistence of dyspeptic symptoms in patients on PPI therapy. Increased risk of enteric infections has also been seen in patients taking PPIs. The overuse of PPIs leads to significant shift of the gastrointestinal microbiome towards a less healthy state. With the advent of PPIs, many studies have demonstrated the significant changes in the microbial composition of both gastric and intestinal microbiota. Although they are considered relatively safe over-the-counter medications, PPIs in many cases are over- and even inappropriately used. Future studies assessing the safety of PPIs and their role in the development of microbiome changes should be encouraged.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ilaprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) currently in clinical use, may provide improved acid suppression vs. other PPIs. AIM To compare the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profiles of ilaprazole and esomeprazole. METHODS A phase 1, randomised, open-label, single-centre, 4-period crossover study was conducted in 40 healthy volunteers. Ilaprazole 10, 20 or 40 mg or esomeprazole 40 mg was administered once daily for 5 days with ≥5-day washout intervals. Pharmacokinetic blood samples and intragastric pH measurements were collected at scheduled timepoints for 24 h after dosing on Days 1 and 5. RESULTS Esomeprazole 40 mg provided significantly better pH control during the initial hours (0-4 h) after a single dose, but ilaprazole (particularly 20 and 40 mg) provided significantly better pH control for the entire 24-h period and during evening and overnight hours after single and multiple doses. Increasing ilaprazole doses resulted in dose-proportional increases in peak plasma concentration and area under the plasma concentration vs. time curve following single and multiple doses. Ilaprazole was safe and generally well tolerated; an unexpectedly high incidence of allergic eye and skin reactions were observed but were not specific to any dosing regimen. Plasma gastrin concentrations did not increase proportionately with increasing ilaprazole dose. CONCLUSIONS Ilaprazole provided significantly better pH control over 24 h and during evening and overnight hours compared with esomeprazole in healthy volunteers, which may translate to greater relief of night-time heartburn in the clinical setting for patients with gastric acid-related disorders.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are acid-activated prodrugs which covalently bind to the gastric H,K-ATPase on its luminal surface. Only active pumps can be inhibited. The short plasma residence time of current PPIs prevents inhibition of pumps synthesized or activated after the PPI has disappeared, limiting the degree of acid inhibition even with BID administration. PPIs with a longer residence time should improve acid control. Various K(+) competitive inhibitors of the pump are being developed (APAs or PCABs), with the advantage of complete inhibition of acid secretion independent of pump activity. Early data on these suggest that twice a day administration would improve acid control compared to PPIs.

Abstract
Medical therapy remains the most popular treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Whilst interest in drug development for GERD has declined over the last few years primarily due to the conversion of most proton pump inhibitor (PPI)'s to generic and over the counter compounds, there are still numerous areas of unmet needs in GERD. Drug development has been focused on potent histamine type 2 receptor antagonist's, extended release PPI's, PPI combination, potassium-competitive acid blockers, transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation reducers, prokinetics, mucosal protectants and esophageal pain modulators. It is likely that the aforementioned compounds will be niched for specific areas of unmet need in GERD, rather than compete with the presently available anti-reflux therapies.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a common disorder with troublesome symptoms caused by reflux of gastric contents into the esophagus, has adverse impact on quality of life. A variety of medications have been used in GERD treatment, and acid suppression therapy is the mainstay of treatment for GERD. Although proton pump inhibitor is the most potent acid suppressant and provides good efficacy in esophagitis healing and symptom relief, about one-third of patients with GERD still have persistent symptoms with poor response to standard dose PPI. Antacids, alginate, histamine type-2 receptor antagonists, and prokinetic agents are usually used as add-on therapy to PPI in clinical practice. Development of novel therapeutic agents has focused on the underlying mechanisms of GERD, such as transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation, motility disorder, mucosal protection, and esophageal hypersensitivity. Newer formulations of PPI with faster and longer duration of action and potassium-competitive acid blocker, a newer acid suppressant, have also been investigated in clinical trials. In this review, we summarize the current and developing therapeutic agents for GERD treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have considerably improved quality of life in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). However, many patients remain symptomatic despite standard PPI therapy. AREAS COVERED This review focuses on evolving therapeutic strategies related to the pathophysiological processes of GERD and insufficient response to PPIs. Several clinical trials evaluated new PPI formulations and newer types of acid-suppressive drugs. These studies have evaluated traditional end points in GERD, but have not shown clinical superiority to current PPIs. Novel therapeutic strategies targeting underlying mechanisms of GERD, such as transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxations (TLESRs) and esophageal hypersensitivity, are being developed for add-on therapy to PPIs. Prokinetic drugs may also have some potential in the add-on treatment of GERD with insufficient response to PPIs. Add-on studies are hampered by insufficient information on optimal patient selection and lack of established end points. EXPERT OPINION Newer drugs for symptomatic control in GERD have largely focused on improved acid suppression, without evidence of clinical superiority. Drugs targeting esophageal motility and sensitivity to be used as add-onc therapy in PPI insufficient responders have not reached Phase III trials to date, due to difficulties with patient selection, tolerability and end points.

Abstract
Ilaprazole is a new proton pump inhibitor, designed for treatment of gastric ulcers, and developed by Il-Yang Pharmaceutical Co (Seoul, Korea). It is extensively metabolised to the major metabolite ilaprazole sulfone. In the present study, several in vitro approaches were used to identify the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes responsible for ilaprazole sulfone formation. Concentrations of ilaprazole sulfone were determined by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Incubation of ilaprazole with cDNA-expressed recombinant CYPs indicated that CYP3A was the major enzyme that catalyses ilaprozole to ilaprazole sulfone. This reaction was inhibited significantly by ketoconazole, a CYP3A inhibitor, and azamulin, a mechanism-based inhibitor of CYP3A, while no substantial effect was observed using selective inhibitors for eight other P450s (CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP2E1). In addition, the formation of ilaprazole sulfone correlated well with CYP3A-catalysed testosterone 6β-hydroxylation and midazolam 1'-hydroxylation in 20 different human liver microsome panels. The intrinsic clearance of the formation of ilaprazole sulfone by CYP3A4 was 16-fold higher than that by CYP3A5. Collectively, these results indicate that the formation of the major metabolite of ilaprazole, ilaprazole sulfone, is predominantly catalysed by CYP3A4/5.

Abstract
The gastric H,K-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) is the primary target for treatment of acid-related diseases. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are weak bases composed of two moieties, a substituted pyridine with a primary pK(a) of about 4.0 that allows selective accumulation in the secretory canaliculus of the parietal cell, and a benzimidazole with a second pK(a) of about 1.0. Protonation of this benzimidazole activates these prodrugs, converting them to sulfenic acids and/or sulfenamides that react covalently with one or more cysteines accessible from the luminal surface of the ATPase. The maximal pharmacodynamic effect of PPIs as a group relies on cyclic adenosine monophosphate-driven H,K-ATPase translocation from the cytoplasm to the canalicular membrane of the parietal cell. At present, this effect can only be achieved with protein meal stimulation. Because of covalent binding, inhibitory effects last much longer than their plasma half-life. However, the short dwell-time of the drug in the blood and the requirement for acid activation impair their efficacy in acid suppression, particularly at night. All PPIs give excellent healing of peptic ulcer and produce good, but less than satisfactory, results in reflux esophagitis. PPIs combined with antibiotics eradicate Helicobacter pylori, but success has fallen to less than 80%. Longer dwell-time PPIs promise to improve acid suppression and hence clinical outcome. Potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) are another class of ATPase inhibitors, and at least one is in development. The P-CAB under development has a long duration of action even though its binding is not covalent. PPIs with a longer dwell time or P-CABs with long duration promise to address unmet clinical needs arising from an inability to inhibit nighttime acid secretion, with continued symptoms, delayed healing, and growth suppression of H. pylori reducing susceptibility to clarithromycin and amoxicillin. Thus, novel and more effective suppression of acid secretion would benefit those who suffer from acid-related morbidity, continuing esophageal damage and pain, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced ulcers, and nonresponders to H. pylori eradication.

Abstract
Because the reflux of the acidic gastric content into the esophagus plays a major role in the pathogenesis of symptoms of GERD and lesions of erosive esophagitis, acid suppression with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) is currently the mainstay of anti-reflux therapy. There is a strong correlation between the degree of acid suppression provided by a given drug and its efficacy. The superiority of PPIs over other drugs (antacids, prokinetics and H(2)-receptor antagonists) has now been established beyond doubt, both for short- and long-term treatment. However, there are still some unmet therapeutic needs in GERD; hence, patients with non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) are less responsive to PPIs than those with erosive esophagitis. Moreover, the efficacy of PPIs in patients with atypical symptoms is frequently limited to the relief of associated heartburn or regurgitation. With respect to safety, although most studies on short- and long-term PPI use have provided reassuring data, recent reports have drawn attention to potential side effects or drug-drug interference. Better healing rates in the most severe forms of esophagitis, or a faster onset of symptom relief, may require optimization of acid suppressive therapy with regard to the daily course of acid secretion, especially during the night. Different pharmacological approaches can be considered, with the ultimate goals of achieving faster, stronger and more-sustained acid inhibition. How a better pharmacological profile may translate into clinical benefit should now be tested in appropriate, controlled studies.

Abstract
Proton pump (H(+)/K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase) inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used to treat patients with acid-related disorders because they are generally perceived to be safe and effective. However, as with any pharmacologic agent, they have the potential for side effects. Many studies have examined the side effects of long-term or short-term PPI exposure. We review the mechanism of action of PPIs, focusing on recently released products that might have greater risks of adverse effects than older products because of increased potency and/or duration of action. We summarize the data available on the putative adverse effects of PPI therapy and propose guidelines for clinicians who prescribe these agents to limit the potential for adverse outcomes in users of these effective therapeutic agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Racemic tenatoprazole 40 mg/day provides more prolonged acid suppression than esomeprazole 40 mg/day. AIM To compare pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profiles of tenatoprazole and esomeprazole. METHODS A single-centre, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized, 4-way, cross-over study was conducted in 32 healthy male subjects. S-tenatoprazole-Na 30, 60 or 90 mg, or esomeprazole 40 mg was administered once daily for 5 days with 10-day washout intervals. The 24-h intragastric pH was recorded at baseline and on day 5 of each period. RESULTS On day 5, median pH (5.34 +/- 0.45 and 5.19 +/- 0.52 vs. 4.76 +/- 0.82, respectively, P < 0.002) and percentage time with pH > 4 (80 +/- 11 and 77 +/- 12, vs. 63 +/- 11 respectively, P < 0.0001) for 24-h were higher with S-tenatoprazole-Na 90 mg and 60 mg than esomeprazole. In nocturnal periods, S-tenatoprazole-Na 90 mg, 60 mg and 30 mg were superior to esomeprazole with regard to median pH (5.14 +/- 0.64, 4.94 +/- 0.65, 4.65 +/- 0.86 and 3.69 +/- 1.18 respectively, P < 0.0001) and percentage time with pH > 4 (77 +/- 12, 73 +/- 17, 64 +/- 17 and 46 +/- 17 respectively, P < 0.0001). Proportion of subjects with nocturnal acid breakthrough with S-tenatoprazole-Na 90 mg, 60 mg and 30 mg was significantly less than with esomeprazole (54.8, 43.3, 56.7 and 90.3 respectively, P < 0.04). The proportion of subjects with >16 hrs with pH >4 was significantly higher with S-tenatoprazole-Na 90 mg and 60 mg than with esomeprazole (87.1%, 83.3% and 41.9% respectively, P < 0.02). CONCLUSIONS S-tenatoprazole-Na produced significantly greater and more prolonged dose-dependent 24-h and nocturnal acid suppression than esomeprazole. S-tenatoprazole-Na may provide greater clinical efficacy compared with current PPIs for patients with ineffective once-daily therapy.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori infection causes chronic active gastritis, ulcer disease, and gastric cancer. Current eradication regimens use a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and two antibiotics. Triple therapy now has a success rate less than 80%, below the cutoff for efficacious eradication. Antibiotic resistance, inconsistent acid control by PPIs, and poor patient compliance contribute to the failure rate. H. pylori is a neutralophile that has developed special acid acclimation mechanisms to colonize its acidic gastric niche. Identifying the components of these mechanisms will provide novel bactericidal drug targets. Alternatively, better 24-hour acid control would increase the efficacy of antibiotics, leading to dual therapy with improved PPIs and amoxicillin. Studies of acid acclimation by H. pylori have identified several potential eradication targets including UreI, alpha-carbonic anhydrase, and a two-component system. Continuing improvement of PPIs has led to the development of at least three candidate drugs with improved 24-hour acid control.

Abstract
The parietal cell is responsible for secreting concentrated hydrochloric acid into the gastric lumen. To fulfill this task, it is equipped with a broad variety of functionally coupled apical and basolateral ion transport proteins. The concerted scientific effort over the last years by a variety of researchers has provided us with the molecular identity of many of these transport mechanisms, thereby contributing to the clarification of persistent controversies in the field. This article will briefly review the current model of parietal cell physiology and ion transport in particular and will update the existing models of apical and basolateral transport in the parietal cell.

Abstract
The development of effective acid-suppression therapy (particularly PPIs) has revolutionized the treatment of acid-related diseases. Despite the overall effectiveness of these agents, they have some shortcomings, including a delayed onset of action, incomplete acid suppression in the majority of patients, and the need for ingestion before a meal to achieve maximal efficacy. Attempts to overcome these issues have included the development of isomeric PPIs (such as esomeprazole), alterations in drug delivery (such as delayed-release dexlansoprazole), and combined therapy with nonenterically coated PPIs and antacids (such as 'naked' omeprazole combined with sodium biocarbonate). Other acid-suppression agents in development or in late-phase trials include potassium-competitive acid blockers, new histamine receptor 2 antagonists, and gastrin antagonists. Although these agents could potentially achieve complete gastric acid suppression, risks may be associated with this level of suppression, including enteric infections and malabsorption of nutrients such as vitamin B(12), iron and calcium. This Review provides an update on the status of acid-suppression therapy and discusses directions for future research.

Abstract
During the 20th century, gastro-esophageal reflux moved from the status of a rare and severe disease to that of a frequent disease occurring mostly, in the absence of any significant lesions. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the mainstay of its therapy and are prescribed mainly in an empirical way. Extradigestive manifestations require more accurate diagnostic tests and therapeutic management. The modalities of prescription of the PPIs quickly progressed toward the on-demand therapy and over-the-counter PPIs should become widespread. The relative failures of PPIs led to a profusion of new antisecretory agents but clinical improvements are presently disappointing and the rationale of this escalation is questionable. The concept of non acid gastro-esophageal reflux opens more innovative diagnostic and therapeutic perspectives which, however, must be validated. In this respect, endoscopic treatment needs more reliable techniques and more rigorous trials. Gastro-esophageal reflux refractory to PPIs corresponds mainly to functional esophageal disorders that need diagnostic and therapeutic improvements. Barrett's esophagus constitutes a major challenge for the next few years. Its screening and its prevention seem, for the moment, inaccessible. Its survey and the prevention of its complications should benefit from progress of diagnostic and interventional endoscopy.

Abstract
The gastric H,K-ATPase is the primary target for the treatment of acid-related diseases. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are weak bases composed of two moieties, a substituted pyridine with a primary pK(a) of about 4.0, which allows selective accumulation in the secretory canaliculus of the parietal cell, and a benzimidazole with a second pK(a) of about 1.0. PPIs are acid-activated prodrugs that convert to sulfenic acids or sulfenamides that react covalently with one or more cysteines accessible from the luminal surface of the ATPase. Because of covalent binding, their inhibitory effects last much longer than their plasma half-life. However, the short half-life of the drug in the blood and the requirement for acid activation impair their efficacy in acid suppression, particularly at night. PPIs with longer half-life promise to improve acid suppression. All PPIs give excellent healing of peptic ulcers and produce good results in reflux esophagitis. PPIs combined with antibiotics eradicate Helicobacter pylori.

Abstract
Antisecretory therapies that raise intragastric pH provide the best healing of the esophageal mucosal damage that occurs in gastroesophageal reflux disease. Continuous maintenance therapy is also effective to reduce the likelihood of recurrence of esophagitis and control symptoms in the long term. Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy is an effective approach for healing esophagitis and controlling symptoms. Endoscopic and surgical treatments may provide an option for patients who are refractory to PPIs in whom reflux has been clearly demonstrated. Long-term antireflux medication is often needed after surgical treatment because of persisting or recurrent pathologic reflux and symptoms. An alternative approach to controlling transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxations, such as the GABA-B agonists, deserves further study.

Optimal dose regimens of esomeprazole for gastric acid suppression with minimal influence of the CYP2C19 polymorphism. Eur J Clin Pharmacol 2008; 65:55-64. [PMID: 18751689 DOI: 10.1007/s00228-008-0552-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2008] [Accepted: 07/30/2008] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this pilot study, we attempted to determine the optimal dosage regimens of esomeprazole for treatment of GERD with minimal influence of the CYP2C19 polymorphism through a study of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of esomeprazole given at 3 different dosage regimens with the same total daily dose. METHODS Each of the 3 genotypes of CYP2C19, homozygous extensive metabolizers (homEMs), heterozygous EMS (hetEMs), and poor metabolizers (PMs) were recruited in this clinical trial. Subjects were given a placebo followed by the administration of esomeprazole, at a dose of 40 mg once daily (40QD), 20 mg twice daily (20TD), or 10 mg 4 times daily (10Q4D) for 7 days. Twenty-four-hour and nocturnal intragastric pH and plasma esomeprazole concentrations were all determined on day 7. RESULTS The pharmacokinetic parameters and dynamic characteristics differed among the 3 CYP2C19 genotype groups. With esomeprazole 40QD, gastric acid suppression was insufficient to achieve a therapeutic effect, while 20TD and 10Q4D were found to be effective in controlling both daytime and nocturnal gastric acidity for all 3 genotype groups. CONCLUSIONS It was confirmed that intragastric pH values and plasma esomeprazole concentrations potentially depended on the CYP2C19 genotype status for treatment with esomeprazole. Dosage regimens of divided doses of 20TD or 10Q4D esomeprazole yielded improved antisecretory effects with a minimal influence of CYP2C19 polymorphisms.

Abstract
The gastric H,K-ATPase, a member of the P(2)-type ATPase family, is the integral membrane protein responsible for gastric acid secretion. It is an alpha,beta-heterodimeric enzyme that exchanges cytoplasmic hydronium with extracellular potassium. The catalytic alpha subunit has ten transmembrane segments with a cluster of intramembranal carboxylic amino acids located in the middle of the transmembrane segments TM4, TM5,TM6, and TM8. Comparison to the known structure of the SERCA pump, mutagenesis, and molecular modeling has identified these as constituents of the ion binding domain. The beta subunit has one transmembrane segment with N terminus in cytoplasmic region. The extracellular domain of the beta subunit contains six or seven N-linked glycosylation sites. N-glycosylation is important for the enzyme assembly, maturation, and sorting. The enzyme pumps acid by a series of conformational changes from an E(1) (ion site in) to an E(2) (ion site out) configuration following binding of MgATP and phosphorylation. Several experimental observations support the hypothesis that expulsion of the proton at 160 mM (pH 0.8) results from movement of lysine 791 into the ion binding site in the E(2)P configuration. Potassium access from the lumen depends on activation of a K and Cl conductance via a KCNQ1/KCNE2 complex and Clic6. K movement through the luminal channel in E(2)P is proposed to displace the lysine along with dephosphorylation to return the enzyme to the E(1) configuration. This enzyme is inhibited by the unique proton pump inhibitor class of drug, allowing therapy of acid-related diseases.

Abstract
Acid-related disorders are common management problems in clinical practice. The key to effective management is successful suppression of gastric acid production. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the most potent acid suppressants available and are significantly more effective than histamine H(2) receptor antagonists. Although PPIs are highly effective as a class, differences in their pharmacokinetics, such as bioavailability, elimination half-life and metabolism, may translate into differences in clinical outcomes. A new immediate-release omeprazole has been introduced, which allows rapid absorption. This has been shown to produce significantly better nocturnal gastric acid control than delayed-release tablets. The bioavailability of rabeprazole on day 1 is greater than with other PPIs, and this may translate into faster onset of symptom relief for patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. On the other hand, the bioavailability of esomeprazole increases 3-fold at day 5, and it has been shown that on day 5, esomeprazole provided significantly more effective control of gastric acid than other PPIs. The exact clinical significance of these observations remains to be determined. There is genetic polymorphism in PPI metabolism via cytochrome P450 2C19. In Helicobacter pylori eradication, a significantly lower eradication rate was seen in extensive metabolisers with omeprazole and lansoprazole but not with rabeprazole. The oesophagitis healing rate was lower in extensive metabolisers with lansoprazole but not with rabeprazole. The currently available PPIs have short elimination half-lives ranging from 1 to 1.5 hours. Tenatoprazole is a new PPI that has a 5- to 7-fold longer elimination half-life than current PPIs. It could be potentially more useful for the treatment of gastro-esophageal reflux disease and nocturnal acid breakthrough than other PPIs.

Abstract
A simple, reliable HPLC method with UV detection (295 nm) in rat plasma was developed and validated for quantification of tenatoprazole, a novel proton pump inhibitor, which is in clinical trials. Following a single-step liquid-liquid extraction, the analyte and internal standard were separated using an isocratic mobile phase on a reverse phase C(18) column. The lower limit of quantitation was 20 ng/mL, with a relative standard deviation of less than 10%. A linear dynamic range of 20-6000 ng/mL was established. This HPLC method was validated with between-batch and within-batch precision of 2.9-6.3 and 1.4-5.8%, respectively. The between-batch and within-batch accuracy was 95.1-104.1 and 92.4-101.0%, respectively. This validated method is simple and repeatable enough to be used in pharmacokinetic studies.

Abstract
Research into new methods of controlling acid secretion is driven by existing medical needs in gastro-oesophageal reflux disease treatment. Histamine receptor subtype 3 agonists offer one approach for acid inhibition but no agent is yet undergoing clinical testing. Other, as yet unrealized strategies include preventing the fusion of the tubulovesicular elements that contain H+/K+-ATPase with the parietal cell membrane, or blocking channels that recycle K+ in the parietal cell. Of more promise are gastrin (cholecystokinin) receptor antagonists and potassium-competitive acid blockers; examples of both are in clinical development. It is probable that gastrin receptor antagonists would be used adjunctively with proton pump inhibitors, possibly for meal-induced reflux. The potassium-competitive acid blockers have attributes that may facilitate use as monotherapy for the treatment of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. The early promise of gastrin receptor antagonists and potassium-competitive acid blockers remains to be defined in large-scale trials.

Abstract
Acid suppression therapy with proton pump inhibitors is associated with well-established benefits in the management of gastro-oesophageal reflux (GERD) and other acid-related disorders. However, a number of issues still remain unsettled. Despite their clinical efficacy, when given once daily, currently available proton pump inhibitors may not adequately control intragastric acidity during the night in a significant proportion of both healthy subjects and GERD patients, in whom symptom relief remains suboptimal. Although some novel proton pump inhibitors have been synthesized, only few reached clinical testing. Amongst them, tenatoprazole represents a true advance displaying a long half-life (five to seven times longer than that of currently available drugs) and extended acid suppression covering both day and night. All the available clinical studies suggest both pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic advantages of tenatoprazole over esomeprazole. As this last compound provides - amongst the members of the class - the most effective control of intragastric pH whatever the parameter considered, it is conceivable that tenatoprazole could similarly be better than the other existing proton pump inhibitors. Tenatoprazole appears to be a promising proton pump inhibitor for the treatment of acid-related diseases, where it has the potential to address unmet clinical needs.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors inhibit the gastric H+/K+-ATPase via covalent binding to cysteine residues of the proton pump. All proton pump inhibitors must undergo acid accumulation in the parietal cell through protonation, followed by activation mediated by a second protonation at the active secretory canaliculus of the parietal cell. The relative ease with which these steps occur with different proton pump inhibitors underlies differences in their rates of activation, which in turn influence the location of covalent binding and the stability of inhibition. Slow activation is associated with binding to a cysteine residue involved in proton transport that is located deep in the membrane. However, this is inaccessible to the endogenous reducing agents responsible for restoring H+/K+-ATPase activity, favouring a longer duration of gastric acid inhibition. Pantoprazole and tenatoprazole, a novel proton pump inhibitor which has an imidazopyridine ring in place of the benzimidazole moiety found in other proton pump inhibitors, are activated more slowly than other proton pump inhibitors but their inhibition is resistant to reversal. In addition, tenatoprazole has a greatly extended plasma half-life in comparison with all other proton pump inhibitors. The chemical and pharmacological characteristics of tenatoprazole give it theoretical advantages over benzimidazole-based proton pump inhibitors that should translate into improved acid control, particularly during the night.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness of proton pump inhibitors is influenced by meals and administration time. AIM To compare the effects on intragastric acidity of times of dosing of tenatoprazole, a novel imidazopyridine-based proton pump inhibitor with a prolonged plasma half-life. METHODS This randomized three-period crossover study included 12 Helicobacter pylori-negative healthy subjects, who received tenatoprazole 40 mg either fasting at 7.00 AM, fasting at 7.00 PM or fed at 9.30 PM for 7 days, with a 2-week washout between periods. Twenty-four hour intragastric pH was monitored on day 7 of each period. RESULTS On day 7, median 24-h pH was 4.7, 5.1 and 4.7 after breakfast, dinner and bedtime dosing, respectively (P = 0.11), whereas night-time pH was 4.2, 5.0 and 4.4 (P = 0.13). The mean 24-h percentage of time over pH 4 was 62, 72 and 64 after breakfast, dinner and bedtime dosing, respectively (N.S.), and 54, 68 and 56 during night-time (P = 0.06). Nocturnal acid breakthrough incidence decreased from 100% at baseline to 83%, 55% and 75% after 7.00 AM, 7.00 PM and 9.30 PM dosing, respectively (P = 0.18), and its mean duration dropped from 6.2 to 2.8, 1.0 and 2.2 h, respectively (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Seven-day administration of tenatoprazole provides a prolonged duration of acid suppression, especially during the night-time, with little effect of food or time of dosing.
