Aluri KC, Slavsky M, Tan Y, Whitcher‐Johnstone A, Zhang Z, Hariparsad N, Ramsden D. Aminobenzotriazole inhibits and induces several key drug metabolizing enzymes complicating its utility as a pan CYP inhibitor for reaction phenotyping. Clin Transl Sci 2024; 17:e13746. [PMID: 38501263 PMCID: PMC10949176 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13746] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2023] [Revised: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Aminobenzotriazole (ABT) is commonly used as a non-selective inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes to assign contributions of CYP versus non-CYP pathways to the metabolism of new chemical entities. Despite widespread use, a systematic review of the drug-drug interaction (DDI) potential for ABT has not been published nor have the implications for using it in plated hepatocyte models for low clearance reaction phenotyping. The goal being to investigate the utility of ABT as a pan-CYP inhibitor for reaction phenotyping of low clearance compounds by evaluating stability over the incubation period, inhibition potential against UGT and sulfotransferase enzymes, and interaction with nuclear receptors involved in the regulation of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters. Induction potential for additional inhibitors used to ascribe fraction metabolism (fm ), pathway including erythromycin, ketoconazole, azamulin, atipamezole, ZY12201, and quinidine was also investigated. ABT significantly inhibited the clearance of a non-selective UGT substrate 4-methylumbelliferone, with several UGTs shown to be inhibited using selective probe substrates in human hepatocytes and rUGTs. The inhibitors screened in the induction assay were shown to induce enzymes regulated through Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor, Constitutive Androstane Receptor, and Pregnane X Receptor. Lastly, a case study identifying the mechanisms of a clinical DDI between Palbociclib and ARV-471 is provided as an example of the potential consequences of using ABT to derive fm . This work demonstrates that ABT is not an ideal pan-CYP inhibitor for reaction phenotyping of low clearance compounds and establishes a workflow that can be used to enable robust characterization of other prospective inhibitors.

Tian L, Tian Q, Tamer E. Screening stabilisers for cyanoenone triterpenoid TX101 in rat plasma samples by simultaneous analysis of parent drug and the epoxidation product. ANALYTICAL SCIENCE ADVANCES 2024; 5:2300058. [PMID: 38828082 PMCID: PMC11142389 DOI: 10.1002/ansa.202300058] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 01/06/2024] [Accepted: 01/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024]
Abstract
In the development of bioanalytical methods, stabilizing drug molecules in biological matrices is crucial for ensuring reliable exposure data in pharmacokinetic and toxicokinetic sample analyses. This study focuses on the evaluation of stabilizing effects on the synthetic triterpenoid TX101, a cyanoenone triterpenoid Nrf2 activator with known instability in plasma samples. The molecule's unsaturated double bond is susceptible to oxidation, either nonenzymatically via oxygen or enzymatically through cytochrome P450 enzyme-catalyzed epoxidation. The research explores the impact of antioxidants (L-ascorbic acid, sodium metabisulfite, sodium sulfite) and P450 enzyme inhibitors (sodium diethyldithiocarbamate, memantine hydrochloride, 1-aminobenzotriazole) on TX101 stability in rat plasma samples. Results reveal that adding 2.5 mg/mL sodium sulfite or sodium metabisulfite effectively inhibits the nonenzymatic oxidation of TX101 to TX101-epoxide, while L-ascorbic acid shows minimal stabilizing effect. Among P450 enzyme inhibitors, sodium diethyldithiocarbamate and memantine hydrochloride exhibit modest stabilizing effects, likely attributed to their antioxidant activity. The developed High-formance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method, incorporating Supported Liquid Extraction for sample cleanup, allows simultaneous monitoring of TX101 and TX101-epoxide. Application of this method in a rat dose-range finding study confirms successful inhibition of TX101-epoxide formation in samples treated with sodium sulfite or sodium metabisulfite. Overall, the study emphasizes the importance of stabilizers in preventing nonenzymatic oxidation reactions during sample storage, providing valuable insights for bioanalytical method development and validation.

Development of an efficient insecticide substrate and inhibitor screening system of insect P450s using fission yeast. INSECT BIOCHEMISTRY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2023; 157:103958. [PMID: 37182814 DOI: 10.1016/j.ibmb.2023.103958] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/07/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
Metabolic resistance is one of the most frequent mechanisms of insecticide resistance, characterized by an increased expression of several important enzymes and transporters, especially cytochrome P450s (CYPs). Due to the large number of P450s in pests, determining the precise relationship between these enzymes and the insecticide substrates is a challenge. Herein, we developed a luminescence-based screening system for efficient identification of insecticide substrates and insect P450 inhibitors. We recombinantly expressed Bemisia tabaci CYP6CM1vQ (Bt CYP6CM1vQ) in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe and subsequently permeabilized the yeast cells to convert them into "enzyme bags". We exploited these enzyme bags to screen the activity of twelve luciferin substrates and identified Luciferin-FEE as the optimal competing probe that was further used to characterize the metabolism of eight candidate commercial insecticides. Among them, Bt CYP6CM1vQ exhibited notable activity against pymetrozine and imidacloprid. Their binding modes were predicted by homology modeling and molecular docking, revealing the mechanisms of the metabolism. We also tested the inhibitory effect of eight known P450 inhibitors using our system and identified letrozole and 1-benzylimidazole as showing significant activity against Bt CYP6CM1vQ, with IC50 values of 23.74 μM and 1.30 μM, respectively. Their potential to be developed as an insecticide synergist was further proven by an in vitro toxicity assay using imidacloprid-resistant Bemisia tabaci. Overall, our luciferin-based enzyme bag method is capable of providing a robust and efficient screening of insect P450 substrates and, more importantly, inhibitors to overcome the resistance.

Arch Toxicol 2023; 97:201-216.

Abstract
Mitoxantrone (MTX) is an antineoplastic agent used to treat advanced breast cancer, prostate cancer, acute leukemia, lymphoma and multiple sclerosis. Although it is known to cause cumulative dose-related cardiotoxicity, the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. This study aims to compare the cardiotoxicity of MTX and its' pharmacologically active metabolite naphthoquinoxaline (NAPHT) in an in vitro cardiac model, human-differentiated AC16 cells, and determine the role of metabolism in the cardiotoxic effects. Concentration-dependent cytotoxicity was observed after MTX exposure, affecting mitochondrial function and lysosome uptake. On the other hand, the metabolite NAPHT only caused concentration-dependent cytotoxicity in the MTT reduction assay. When assessing the effect of different inhibitors/inducers of metabolism, it was observed that metyrapone (a cytochrome P450 inhibitor) and phenobarbital (a cytochrome P450 inducer) slightly increased MTX cytotoxicity, while 1-aminobenzotriazole (a suicide cytochrome P450 inhibitor) decreased fairly the MTX-triggered cytotoxicity in differentiated AC16 cells. When focusing in autophagy, the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin and the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine exacerbated the cytotoxicity caused by MTX and NAPHT, while the autophagy blocker, chloroquine, partially reduced the cytotoxicity of MTX. In addition, we observed a decrease in p62, beclin-1, and ATG5 levels and an increase in LC3-II levels in MTX-incubated cells. In conclusion, in our in vitro model, neither metabolism nor exogenously given NAPHT are major contributors to MTX toxicity as seen by the residual influence of metabolism modulators used on the observed cytotoxicity and by NAPHT's low cytotoxicity profile. Conversely, autophagy is involved in MTX-induced cytotoxicity and MTX seems to act as an autophagy inducer, possibly through p62/LC3-II involvement.

Abstract
The effect of UV/visible/NIR light (380/450/530/650/808/1064 nm) on ROS generation, mitochondrial activity and viability is experimentally compared in human neuroblastoma cancer cells. The absorption of photons by mitochondrial photoacceptors in Complexes I, III and IV is in detail investigated by sequential blocking with selective pharmaceutical blockers. Complex I absorbs UV/blue light by heme P450, resulting in a very high rate (14 times) of ROS generation leading to cell death. Complex III absorbs green light, by cytochromes b, c1 and c, and possesses less ability for ROS production (seven times), so that only irradiation lower than 10 mW cm-2 causes an increase in cell viability. Complex IV is well-known as the primary photoacceptor for red/NIR light. Light of 650/808 nm at 10-100 mW cm-2 generates a physiological ROS level about 20% of a basal concentration, which enhance mitochondrial activity and cell survival, while 1064 nm light does not show any distinguished effects. Further, ROS generation induced by low-intensity red/NIR light is compared in neurons, immune and cancer cells. Red light seems to more rapidly stimulate ROS production, mitochondrial activity and cell survival than 808 nm. At the same time, different cell lines demonstrate slightly various rates of ROS generation, peculiar to their cellular physiology.

Abstract
Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) is an important branch of pharmaceutical sciences. The nature of ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion) and PK (pharmacokinetics) inquiries during drug discovery and development has evolved in recent years from being largely descriptive to seeking a more quantitative and mechanistic understanding of the fate of drug candidates in biological systems. Tremendous progress has been made in the past decade, not only in the characterization of physiochemical properties of drugs that influence their ADME, target organ exposure, and toxicity, but also in the identification of design principles that can minimize drug-drug interaction (DDI) potentials and reduce the attritions. The importance of membrane transporters in drug disposition, efficacy, and safety, as well as the interplay with metabolic processes, has been increasingly recognized. Dramatic increases in investments on new modalities beyond traditional small and large molecule drugs, such as peptides, oligonucleotides, and antibody-drug conjugates, necessitated further innovations in bioanalytical and experimental tools for the characterization of their ADME properties. In this review, we highlight some of the most notable advances in the last decade, and provide future perspectives on potential major breakthroughs and innovations in the translation of DMPK science in various stages of drug discovery and development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identification of clinical drug-drug interaction (DDI) risk is an important aspect of drug discovery and development owing to poly-pharmacy in present-day clinical therapy. Drug metabolizing enzymes (DME) plays important role in the efficacy and safety of drug candidates. Hence evaluation of a New Chemical Entity (NCE) as a victim or perpetrator is very crucial for DDI risk mitigation. ZY12201 (2-((2-(4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl) phenoxy) ethyl) thio)-5-(2-(3, 4- dimethoxy phenyl) propane-2-yl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-imidazole) is a novel and potent Takeda-G-protein-receptor-5 (TGR-5) agonist. ZY12201 was evaluated in-vitro to investigate the DDI liabilities. OBJECTIVE The key objective was to evaluate the CYP inhibition potential of ZY12201 for an opportunity to use it as a tool compound for pan CYP inhibition activities. METHOD In-vitro drug metabolizing enzymes (DME) inhibition potential of ZY12201 was evaluated against major CYP isoforms (1A2, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, and 3A4/5), aldehyde oxidase (AO), monoamine oxidase (MAO), and flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO in human liver cytosol/mitochondrial preparation/ microsomes using probe substrates and Liquid Chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) method. RESULTS The study conducted on ZY12201 at 100 µM ZY12201 was found to reduce the metabolism of vanillin (AO probe substrate), tryptamine (MAO probe substrate), and benzydamine (FMO probe substrate) by 49.2%, 14.7%, and 34.9%, respectively. ZY12201 Ki values were 0.38, 0.25, 0.07, 0.01, 0.06, 0.02, 7.13, 0.03 and 0.003 μM for CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4/5 (substrate: testosterone) and CYP3A4/5 (substrate: midazolam), respectively. Time-dependant CYP inhibition potential of ZY12201 was assessed against CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4/5 and no apparent IC50 shift was observed. CONCLUSIONS ZY12201, at 100 µM concentration showed low inhibition potential of AO, MAO, and FMO. ZY12201 was found as a potent inhibitor of CYP1A2, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4/5 while moderately inhibits to CYP2E1. Inhibition of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C19, and CYP2E1 by ZY12201 was competitive, while inhibition of CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4/5 was of mixed-mode. ZY12201 is a non-time-dependent inhibitor of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4/5. In summary, the reported Ki values unequivocally support that ZY12201 has a high potential to inhibit all major CYP isoforms. ZY12201 can be effectively used as a tool compound for in-vitro evaluation of CYP-based metabolic contribution to total drug clearance in the lead optimization stage of Drug Discovery Research.

Abstract
The cytochrome P450 (CYP) ω-hydroxylases are a subfamily of CYP enzymes. While CYPs are the main metabolic enzymes that mediate the oxidation reactions of many endogenous and exogenous compounds in the human body, CYP ω-hydroxylases mediate the metabolism of multiple fatty acids and their metabolites via the addition of a hydroxyl group to the ω- or (ω-1)-C atom of the substrates. The substrates of CYP ω-hydroxylases include but not limited to arachidonic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, epoxyeicosatrienoic acids, leukotrienes, and prostaglandins. The CYP ω-hydroxylases-mediated metabolites, such as 20-hyroxyleicosatrienoic acid (20-HETE), 19-HETE, 20-hydroxyl leukotriene B4 (20-OH-LTB4), and many ω-hydroxylated prostaglandins, have pleiotropic effects in inflammation and many inflammation-associated diseases. Here we reviewed the classification, tissue distribution of CYP ω-hydroxylases and the role of their hydroxylated metabolites in inflammation-associated diseases. We described up-regulation of CYP ω-hydroxylases may be a pathogenic mechanism of many inflammation-associated diseases and thus CYP ω-hydroxylases may be a therapeutic target for these diseases. CYP ω-hydroxylases-mediated eicosanods play important roles in inflammation as pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory mediators, participating in the process stimulated by cytokines and/or the process stimulating the production of multiple cytokines. However, most previous studies focused on 20-HETE,and further studies are needed for the function and mechanisms of other CYP ω-hydroxylases-mediated eicosanoids. We believe that our studies of CYP ω-hydroxylases and their associated eicosanoids will advance the translational and clinal use of CYP ω-hydroxylases inhibitors and activators in many diseases.

Abstract
Isoniazid (INH) is a first-line anti-tuberculosis drug used for nearly 70 years. However, the mechanism underlying the side effects of INH has remained elusive. Here, we report that INH and its metabolites induce a post-translational modification (PTM) of histones, lysine isonicotinylation (Kinic), also called 4-picolinylation, in cells and mice. INH promotes the biosynthesis of isonicotinyl-CoA (Inic-CoA), a co-factor of intracellular isonicotinylation. Mass spectrometry reveals 26 Kinic sites in histones in HepG2 cells. Acetyltransferases CREB-binding protein (CBP) and P300 catalyse histone Kinic, while histone deacetylase HDAC3 functions as a deisonicotinylase. Notably, MNase sensitivity assay and RNA-seq analysis show that histone Kinic relaxes chromatin structure and promotes gene transcription. INH-mediated histone Kinic upregulates PIK3R1 gene expression and activates the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signalling pathway in liver cancer cells, linking INH to tumourigenicity in the liver. We demonstrate that Kinic is a histone acylation mark with a pyridine ring, which may have broad biological effects. Therefore, INH-induced isonicotinylation potentially accounts for the side effects in patients taking INH long-term for anti-tuberculosis therapy, and this modification may increase the risk of cancer in humans. Isoniazid (INH) is an anti-tuberculosis drug; however the underlying cause of its various side effects are not understood. Here the authors identified lysine isonicotinylation as a histone modification on chromatin that is metabolically regulated by INH and its metabolites.

Identification of novel Urotensin-II receptor antagonists with potent inhibition of U-II induced pressor response in mice. Eur J Pharmacol 2020; 886:173391. [PMID: 32745605 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2020.173391] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2019] [Revised: 07/08/2020] [Accepted: 07/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Urotensin II (U-II) has been found to be one of the most potent vasoconstrictor (Ames et al., 1999; Bohm et al., 2002) reported till date. U-II exerts its response via activation of a G-protein coupled receptor, Urotensin II receptor(UT). Binding of U-II to UT leads to an instant increase in the inositol phosphate turnover and intracellular Ca2+. Such an instant Ca2+ release and potent vasoconstriction exerted by U-II is expected to have an important role in the progression of cardiac diseases. We have previously shown that UT antagonist DS37001789 prevents U-II induced blood pressure elevation in mice (Nishi et al., 2019) in a dose dependent manner, with potent efficacy at 30 and 100 mg/kg. Further to this, we have also shown that DS37001789 ameliorates mortality in pressure-overload mice with heart failure (Nishi et al., 2020). We therefore conducted an extensive structure-activity relationship studies to identify molecules with superior efficacy. In the present manuscript, we report the identification of two potent, non-peptide small molecule antagonists of Urotensin II receptor (UT), RCI-0879 and RCI-0298 which blocked the action of U-II, both in vitro and in vivo. These molecules were found to be very potent in in vitro Ca2+ and radioligand binding assays using human and mouse UT over-expressing CHO cells. RCI-0879 and RCI-0298 also exhibited superior efficacy in in vivo mouse pressor response model using C57BL/6 mice, compared to our initial molecules (Nishi et al., 2019) and demonstrated ED50 values of 3.2 mg/kg and 6.8 mg/kg respectively. Our findings reported herewith, further strengthen our concept and belief in UT antagonization as a potential therapeutic approach for the management of chronic heart failure.

Drug Metab Dispos 2020; 48:698-707. [PMID: 32499340 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.120.000009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2020] [Accepted: 04/22/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
The mass balance, excretion, and metabolism of LY3202626 were determined in healthy subjects after oral administration of a single dose of 10 mg of (approximately 100 μCi) [14C]LY3202626. Excretion of radioactivity was slow and incomplete, with approximately 75% of the dose recovered after 504 hours of sample collection. The mean total recovery of the radioactive dose was 31% and 44% in the feces and urine, respectively. Because of low plasma total radioactivity, plasma metabolite profiling was conducted by accelerator mass spectrometry. Metabolism of LY3202626 occurred primarily via O-demethylation (M2) and amide hydrolysis (M1, M3, M4, and M5). Overall, parent drug, M1, M2, and M4 were the largest circulating components in plasma, and M2 and M4 were the predominant excretory metabolites. The slow elimination of total radioactivity was proposed to result from an unusual enterohepatic recirculation pathway involving microbial reduction of metabolite M2 to M16 in the gut and reabsorption of M16, followed by hepatic oxidation of M16 back to M2. Supporting in vitro experiments showed that M2 is reduced to M16 anaerobically in fecal homogenate and that M16 is oxidized in the liver by aldehyde oxidase to M2. LY3202626 also showed a potential to form a reactive sulfenic acid intermediate. A portion of plasma radioactivity was unextractable and presumably bound covalently to plasma proteins. In vitro incubation of LY3202626 in human liver microsomes in the presence of NADPH with dimedone as a trapping agent implicated the formation of the proposed sulfenic acid intermediate. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The excretion of radioactivity in humans after oral administration of a single dose of 10 mg of [14C]LY3202626 was very slow. The results from in vitro experiments suggested that an interplay between microbial reduction, reabsorption, and aldehyde oxidase oxidation (M2 → M16 → M2) could be a reason for extended radioactivity excretion profile. In vitro metabolism also showed that LY3202626 has the potential to form a reactive sulfenic acid intermediate that could potentially covalently bind to plasma protein and result in the observed unextractable radioactivity from plasma.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2019; 252:804-812.

Abstract
6:2 fluorotelomer sulfonic acid (6:2 FTSA) is currently used as an alternative to perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) and is widely detected in the environment. The uptake, translocation and biotransformation of 6:2 FTSA in pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima L.) were investigated by hydroponic exposure for the first time. The root concentration factor (RCF) of 6:2 FTSA was 2.6-24.2 times as high as those of perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) of the same or much shorter carbon chain length, demonstrating much higher bioaccumulative ability of 6:2 FTSA in pumpkin roots. The translocation capability of 6:2 FTSA from root to shoot depended on its hydrophobicity. Six terminal perfluorocarboxylic acid (PFCA) metabolites, including perfluoroheptanoic acid (PFHpA), perfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA), perfluoropentanoic acid (PFPeA), perfluorobutanoic acid (PFBA), perfluoropropionic acid (PFPrA) and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) were found in pumpkin roots and shoots. PFHpA was the primary metabolite in roots, while PFBA was the major product in shoots. 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT), a cytochromes P450 (CYPs) suicide inhibitor, could decrease the concentrations of PFCA products with dose-dependent relationships in pumpkin tissues, implying the role of CYP enzymes involved in plant biotransformation of 6:2 FTSA. This study indicated that the application of 6:2 FTSA can lead to the occurrence of PFCAs (C2-C7) in plants.

In Vitro and In Vivo Correlation of Hepatic Fraction of Metabolism by P450 in Dogs. J Pharm Sci 2018; 108:1017-1026.

Abstract
1-Aminobenzotriazole (ABT) has been widely used as a nonspecific mechanism-based inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes. It is extensively used in preclinical studies to determine the relative contribution of oxidative metabolism mediated by P450 in vitro and in vivo. The aim of present study was to understand the translation of fraction metabolized by P450 in dog hepatocytes to in vivo using ABT, for canagliflozin, known to be cleared by P450-mediated oxidation and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases-mediated glucuronidation, and 3 drug discovery project compounds mainly cleared by hepatic metabolism. In a dog hepatocyte, intrinsic clearance assay with and without preincubation of ABT, 3 Lilly compounds exhibited a wide range of fraction metabolized by P450. Subsequent metabolite profiling in dog hepatocytes demonstrated a combination of metabolism by P450 and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases. In vivo, dogs were pretreated with 50 mg/kg ABT or vehicle at 2 h before intravenous administration of canagliflozin and Lilly compounds. The areas under the concentration-time curve (AUC) were compared for the ABT-pretreated and vehicle-pretreated groups. The measured AUCABT/AUCveh ratios were correlated to fraction of metabolism by P450 in dog hepatocytes, suggesting that in vitro ABT inhibition in hepatocytes is useful to rank order compounds for in vivo fraction of metabolism assessment.

Abstract
1-Aminobenzotriazole (1-ABT) is a pan-specific, mechanism-based inactivator of the xenobiotic metabolizing forms of cytochrome P450 in animals, plants, insects, and microorganisms. It has been widely used to investigate the biological roles of cytochrome P450 enzymes, their participation in the metabolism of both endobiotics and xenobiotics, and their contributions to the metabolism-dependent toxicity of drugs and chemicals. This review is a comprehensive evaluation of the chemistry, discovery, and use of 1-aminobenzotriazole in these contexts from its introduction in 1981 to the present.

Abstract
The ecotoxicology effects of chiral herbicides have long been recognized and have drawn increasing attention. The toxic mechanisms of herbicides in plants are involved in production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cause damage to target enzymes, but the relationship between these two factors in the enantioselectivity of chiral herbicides has rarely been investigated. Furthermore, even though cytochromes P450 enzymes (CYP450s) have been related to the phytotoxicity of herbicides, their roles in the enantioselectivity of chiral herbicides have yet to be explored. To solve this puzzle, the CYP450s suicide inhibitor 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT) was added to an exposure system made from dichlorprop (DCPP) enantiomers in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. The results indicated that different phytotoxicities of DCPP enantiomers by causing oxidative stress and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) damage were observed in the presence and the absence of ABT. The addition of ABT decreased the toxicity of (R)-DCPP but was not significantly affected that of (S)-DCPP, resulting in smaller differences between enantiomers. Furthermore, profound differences were also observed in Fe uptake and distribution, exhibiting different distribution patterns in A. thaliana leaves exposed to DCPP and ABT, which helped bridge the relationship between ROS production and target enzyme ACCase damage through the function of CYP450s. These results offer an opportunity for a more-comprehensive understanding of chiral herbicide action mechanism and provide basic evidence for risk assessments of chiral herbicides in the environment.

Abstract
Prenylated phenolic compounds are an important class of bioactive natural products. One major in vivo metabolic pathway of these compounds is hydroxylation at terminal methyl of the isoprenyl group. This study aims to identify the P450 isozyme catalyzing this metabolic reaction. In human liver microsomes, 16 out of 24 screened compounds could be metabolized into their hydroxylated derivatives. Chemical inhibition assays using 11 isozyme specific inhibitors indicated the hydroxylation reactions of 12 compounds were primarily catalyzed by cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6). In particular, CYP2A6 was the major enzyme participating in the metabolism of isoglycycoumarin (IGCM). The product of IGCM was obtained and identified as licopyranocoumarin (4″-hydroxyl isoglycycoumarin) using NMR spectroscopic analysis. The Km values for human liver microsomes and recombinant human CYP2A6 were 7.98 and 10.14μM, respectively. According to molecular docking analysis, the catalytic mechanism may involve cyclized isoprenyl group of IGCM entering the active cavity of CYP2A6. These results demonstrate that IGCM could serve as an ideal isozyme selective probe to evaluate CYP2A6 activities.

Abstract
1-Aminobenzotriazole (ABT) is a well-known in vivo nonspecific inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. An effective dosing regimen of ABT for a multiple-administration study is needed to conduct pharmacological studies for proof-of-concept, although it has been established for single-administration study, to characterize the pharmacokinetics of drug candidates. This study demonstrated a suitable dosing vehicle of ABT for continuous administration and increased exposure to antipyrine, which is a nonspecific probe of CYP, using ABT for a long period in mice. The dosing vehicle of ABT was 0.5% (w/v) hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and 0.5% (v/v) Tween 80 in N,N-dimethylacetamide/20% hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin aqueous solution (2:8, v/v) based on the duration of apparent solubility. After implantation of an ALZET osmotic pump with ABT, the plasma concentrations of ABT were maintained at more than 4.1 μg/ml over 336 h. Compared with the vehicle group, the CLtot of antipyrine with ABT decreased to approximately one-fourth, and the BA of antipyrine with ABT increased up to 3-fold. In addition, the enhancement of exposure of antipyrine by ABT was maintained over the 336 h. The body weight, food consumption and hematological parameters of mice did not change with ABT administration for 16 days. These findings demonstrated that pretreatment of ABT can increase long-term exposure using continuous administration with the ALZET osmotic pump in mice with no overt toxicity. It is concluded that the in vivo use of 1-aminobenzotriazole can be applied to pharmacological studies for proof-of-concept, thus contributing to the selection of drug candidates at an early drug discovery stage.

Rate-Determining and Rate-Limiting Steps in the Clearance and Excretion of a Potent and Selective p21-Activated Kinase Inhibitor: A Case Study of Rapid Hepatic Uptake and Slow Elimination in Rat. Drug Metab Lett 2016; 10:91-100. [PMID: 27063863 PMCID: PMC5405622 DOI: 10.2174/1872312810666160411144358] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2016] [Revised: 04/04/2016] [Accepted: 04/05/2016] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Significant under-prediction of in vivo clearance in rat was observed for a potent p21-activated kinase (PAK1) inhibitor, GNE1. OBJECTIVE Rate-determining (rapid uptake) and rate-limiting (slow excretion) steps in systemic clearance and elimination of GNE1, respectively, were evaluated to better understand the cause of the in vitro-in vivo (IVIV) disconnect. METHODS A series of in vivo, ex vivo, and in vitro experiments were carried out: 1) the role of organic cation transporters (Oct or Slc22a) was investigated in transporter knock-out and wild-type animals with or without 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT) pretreatment; 2) the concentration-dependent hepatic extraction ratio was determined in isolated perfused rat liver; and 3) excreta were collected from both bile duct cannulated and non-cannulated rats after intravenous injection. RESULTS After intravenous dosing, the rate-determining step in clearance was found to be mediated by the active uptake transporter, Oct1. In cannulated rats, biliary and renal clearance of GNE1 accounted for only approximately 14 and 16% of the total clearance, respectively. N-acetylation, an important metabolic pathway, accounted for only about 10% of the total dose. In non-cannulated rats, the majority of the dose was recovered in feces as unchanged parent (up to 91%) overnight following intravenous administration. CONCLUSION Because the clearance of GNE1 is mediated through uptake transporters rather than metabolism, the extrahepatic expression of Oct1 in kidney and intestine in rat likely plays an important role in the IVIV disconnect in hepatic clearance prediction. The slow process of intestinal secretion is the rate-limiting step for in vivo clearance of GNE1.

Abstract
Hepatotoxicity induced by the metabolic activation of drugs is a major concern in drug discovery and development. Three-dimensional (3-D) cultures of hepatocyte spheroids may be superior to monolayer cultures for evaluating drug metabolism and toxicity because hepatocytes in spheroids maintain the expression of various metabolizing enzymes and transporters, such as cytochrome P450 (CYP). In this study, we examined the hepatotoxicity due to metabolic activation of acetaminophen (APAP) using fluorescent indicators of cell viability and intracellular levels of glutathione (GSH) in rat hepatocyte spheroids grown on micro-space cell culture plates. The mRNA expression levels of some drug-metabolizing enzymes were maintained during culture. Additionally, this culture system was compatible with microfluorometric imaging under confocal laser scanning microscopy. APAP induced a decrease in intracellular ATP at 10mM, which was blocked by the CYP inhibitor 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT). APAP (10mM, 24h) decreased the levels of both intracellular ATP and GSH, and GSH-conjugated APAP (APAP-GSH) were formed. All three effects were blocked by ABT, confirming a contribution of APAP metabolic activation by CYP to spheroid toxicity. Fluorometric imaging of hepatocyte spheroids on micro-space cell culture plates may allow the screening of drug-induced hepatotoxicity during pharmaceutical development.

Abstract
Determination of passive permeability is not only important for predicting oral absorption and brain penetration, but also for accurately predicting hepatic clearance. High throughput (HT) measurement of passive permeability across hepatocyte cell membrane is technically more challenging than using monolayer cell-based permeability assays. In this study, we evaluated if the HT Madin-Darby canine kidney II-low efflux (MDCKII-LE) cell monolayer permeability assay can be used as a surrogate to predict the passive permeability of hepatocytes. Apparent passive permeability of MDCKII-LE is well correlated to passive diffusion clearance of human and rat hepatocytes, suggesting that the HT MDCKII-LE assay can be used as a surrogate to estimate the passive permeability of hepatocytes. In addition, lipophilicity (Log D determined at pH 7.4) was also found to be well correlated with both MDCKII-LE and hepatocyte permeability for most compounds, hence it may serve as another permeability surrogate.

Abstract
Idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a significant adverse effect of antitubercular therapy with isoniazid (INH). Although the drug has been used for many decades, the underlying mode of action (both patient-specific and drug-specific mechanisms) leading to DILI are poorly understood. Among the patient-specific determinants of susceptibility to INH-associated DILI, the importance of HLA genetic variants has been increasingly recognized, whereas the role of polymorphisms of drug-metabolizing enzymes (NAT2 and CYP2E1) has become less important and remains controversial. However, these polymorphisms are merely correlative, and other molecular determinants of susceptibility have remained largely unknown. Regarding the drug-specific mechanisms underlying INH-induced liver injury, novel concepts have been emerging. Among these are covalent protein adduct formation via novel reactive intermediates, leading to hapten formation and a potential immune response, and interference with endogenous metabolism. Furthermore, INH and/or INH metabolites (e.g. hydrazine) can cause mitochondrial injury, which can lead to mitochondrial oxidant stress and impairment of energy homeostasis. Recent studies have revealed that underlying impairment of complex I function can trigger massive hepatocellular injury induced by otherwise nontoxic concentrations of INH superimposed on these mitochondrial deficiencies. This review discusses these emerging new paradigms of INH-induced DILI and highlights recent insights into the mechanisms, as well as points to the existing large gaps in our understanding of the pathogenesis.

Abstract
Efavirenz (EFV) is an anti-retroviral drug frequently combined with isoniazid (INH) to treat HIV-1/tuberculosis co-infected patients. Both drugs have been associated with idiosyncratic liver injury (DILI), but combined anti-retroviral and anti-tubercular therapy can increase the risk for DILI as compared to either drug class alone. Because both EFV and INH have been implicated in targeting mitochondria, we aimed at exploring whether the two drugs might cause synergistic effects on the electron transport chain. We found that EFV inhibited complex I activity in isolated mouse liver mitochondria (IC50 ˜30 μM), whereas hydrazine, a major metabolite of INH generated by acylamidase-mediated hydrolytic cleavage, inhibited complex II activity (IC50 ˜30 μM). Neither INH alone (≤1000 μM) nor EFV alone (≤30 μM) was able to induce cell injury in cultured mouse hepatocytes. However, combined EFV/INH exposure resulted in increased superoxide formation and peroxynitrite stress, leading to the opening of the cyclosporine A-insensitive mode of the mitochondrial permeability transition (mPT), and necrotic cell death. The peroxynitrite scavengers, CBA or Fe-TMPyP, protected against mPT induction and alleviated cell injury. The acylamidase inhibitor bis-p-nitrophenyl phosphate prevented cell injury, suggesting that hydrazine greatly contributed to the toxicity. Methylene blue, a redox-active alternative electron acceptor/donor that bypasses complex I/II, effectively protected against EFV/INH-induced toxicity. These data demonstrate that, in murine hepatocytes, the mitochondrial electron transport chain is a critical target of combined EFV/INH exposure, and that this drug combination can lead to peroxynitrite stress-induced mPT and hepatocellular necrosis. These results are compatible with the concept that underlying silent mitochondrial dysfunction may be a key susceptibility factor contributing to idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury.

Abstract
Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are potential enzymes responsible for hydroxylation of many xenobiotics and endogenous chemicals in living organisms. It has been found that 4-monochlorobiphenyl (PCB3), mainly an airborne pollutant, can be metabolized to hydroxylated transformation products (OH-PCB3s) in whole poplars. However, the enzymes involved in the hydroxylation of PCB3 in whole poplars have not been identified. Therefore, two CYP suicide inhibitors, 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT) and 17-octadecynoic acid (ODYA), were selected to probe the hydroxylation reaction of PCB3 in whole poplars in this work. Poplars (Populus deltoides × nigra, DN34) were exposed to PCB3 with or without inhibitor for 11 days. Results showed both ABT and ODYA can decrease the concentrations and yields of five OH-PCB3s in different poplar parts via the inhibition of CYPs. Furthermore, both ABT and ODYA demonstrated a dose-dependent relationship to the formation of OH-PCB3s in whole poplars. The higher the inhibitor concentrations, the lower the total yields of OH-PCB3s. For ABT spiked-additions, the total mass yield of five OH-PCB3s was inhibited by a factor of 1.6 times at an ABT concentration of 2.5 mg L(-1), 4.0 times at 12.5 mg L(-1), and 7.0 times at 25 mg L(-1). For the inhibitor ODYA, the total mass of five OH-PCB3s was reduced by 2.1 times compared to the control at an ODYA concentration of 2.5 mg L(-1). All results pointed to the conclusion that CYP enzymes were the agents which metabolized PCB3 to OH-PCB3s in whole poplars because suicide CYP inhibitors ABT and ODYA both led to sharp decreases of OH-PCB3s formation in whole poplars. A dose-response curve for each of the suicide inhibitors was developed.

AMAP, the alleged non-toxic isomer of acetaminophen, is toxic in rat and human liver. Arch Toxicol 2012; 87:155-65.

Abstract
N-acetyl-meta-aminophenol (AMAP) is generally considered as a non-toxic regioisomer of the well-known hepatotoxicant acetaminophen (APAP). However, so far, AMAP has only been shown to be non-toxic in mice and hamsters. To investigate whether AMAP could also be used as non-toxic analog of APAP in rat and human, the toxicity of APAP and AMAP was tested ex vivo in precision-cut liver slices (PCLS) of mouse, rat and human. Based on ATP content and histomorphology, APAP was more toxic in mouse than in rat and human PCLS. Surprisingly, although AMAP showed a much lower toxicity than APAP in mouse PCLS, AMAP was equally toxic as or even more toxic than APAP at all concentrations tested in both rat and human PCLS. The profile of proteins released into the medium of AMAP-treated rat PCLS was similar to that of APAP, whereas in the medium of mouse PCLS, it was similar to the control. Metabolite profiling indicated that mouse PCLS produced the highest amount of glutathione conjugate of APAP, while no glutathione conjugate of AMAP was detected in all three species. Mouse also produced ten times more hydroquinone metabolites of AMAP, the assumed proximate reactive metabolites, than rat or human. In conclusion, AMAP is toxic in rat and human liver and cannot be used as non-toxic isomer of APAP. The marked species differences in APAP and AMAP toxicity and metabolism underline the importance of using human tissues for better prediction of toxicity in man.

Abstract
Cyanamide has been used for decades for medical intentions in the treatment of alcoholism and for agricultural purposes as a plant growth regulator and bud-breaking agent. Its therapeutic effect is mediated by reversible inhibition of aldehyde dehydrogenase and it was reported to be metabolized in vivo mainly via coenzyme A dependent N-acetylation by N-acetyltransferases. Although described to be a substrate for N-acetyltransferases (NATs), cyanamide has a different molecular structure to arylamines and hydrazines, the preferred substrates for N-acetyltransferases. Therefore, a more detailed investigation of its interrelations with N-acetyltransferases was performed. We analyzed the impact of cyanamide on NAT1 activities of human monocytes (monocytic THP-1 cells) using the classical substrate p-aminobenzoic acid. We found that a 24h treatment with physiologically relevant concentrations of cyanamide decreased the NAT1 activity significantly. Based on this observation we performed additional experiments using recombinant human NAT1 and NAT2 to achieve further insights. In detail a significant dose- and time-dependent inhibition of NAT1 activity was observed for 100 and 1000μM cyanamide using recombinant human NAT1*4. However, cyanamide did not inhibit recombinant NAT2*4. Experiments testing cyanamide as substrate did not provide evidence that cyanamide is metabolized via coenzyme A dependent N-acetylation in vitro by human NAT1 or NAT2, THP-1 or human liver cytosol. Therefore we can conclude that the observed enzyme inhibition (around 50% and 25% after treatment with 0.5 and 0.25mM CA, respectively) is not based on substrate-dependent down-regulation of NAT1. Further mechanistic and kinetic studies indicated that cyanamide reacts with the active site cysteine residue of NAT1, leading to its rapid inhibition (significant inhibition after 30min and 2h for 1000 and 100μM CA, respectively). Addition of the reduction agent dithiothreitol (DTT) did not modify the effect, indicating that oxidative processes that can be reversed by 5mM DTT are not likely involved in the inhibition. Taken together our results show that cyanamide is able to inhibit NAT1 most likely via interaction with the active site cysteine residue. Thereby cyanamide might modulate NAT1 dependent detoxification and activation of arylamines.
