Abstract
During meiosis II, lipids are remodeled and incorporated into a double-membrane structure termed the prospore membrane (PSM), which grows as it sequesters four haploid nuclei to form spores. Cellular organelle lipid droplets are recruited to the PSM, where they play an active role in organizing membrane morphogenesis. Neutral lipids, predominantly triacylglycerol (TAG) and sterol ester, are stored within the cellular organelles termed lipid droplets (LDs). Although it is believed that the major function of LDs is to supply the cell with energy and membranes, little is known about the cellular events directly involving LDs and their contents. In this study, we provide cytological evidence that LDs form direct contacts with the prospore membrane (PSM) that is synthesized de novo during meiosis II to sequester the dividing nuclei in sporulating yeast. Lipidomic analyses indicate that TAG lipolysis releases free fatty acids at a time that correlates well with meiosis II progression, concomitant with phospholipid remodeling. Mutants lacking TAG or impaired of TAG hydrolysis show spore wall assembly defects, supporting a role for TAG and/or its metabolites in spore wall morphogenesis. Not only does LD integrity influence spore wall assembly, LDs are also essential for other aspects of spore development. Yeast cells lacking LDs are severely defective in PSM growth and organization and display disrupted spindles, producing dead spores or even failing to form spores. Together these results link LD physiology directly to a unique membrane morphogenesis process critical for development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was designed to evaluate the population pharmacokinetics (popPK) of penicillin G in patients with infective endocarditis and establish a dosage regimen based on pharmacokinetic data and clinical outcome. METHOD Forty-six serum penicillin G samples from 25 individuals were analyzed using a nonlinear mixed-effects model. popPK were estimated using a one-compartment model. We created a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for penicillin G efficacy and the ratio of its minimum concentration (Cmin)/minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Simulations were used to optimize the penicillin G dosage regimen using this ratio. RESULT Estimated popPK were: CL (L/h) = 0.21 × creatinine clearance (CLcr) (mL/min), Vd (L) = 28.9. The areas under the ROC curves were 0.87 for clinical efficacy. The cut-off value of penicillin G Cmin/MIC was 60. The continuous administration of 1 million IU penicillin G/h was necessary to achieve a positive outcome for patients with normal renal function (CLcr ≥ 60 mL/min). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that population-based parameters are useful for evaluating penicillin G pharmacokinetics and that an individualized dosage should be determined based on a described dosage regimen.

Abstract
Evidence is presented for an unconventional protein secretion pathway that is conserved from yeast to Dictyostelium discoideum in which Acb1 may be sequestered into autophagosomal vesicles, which then fuse (either directly or indirectly) with the plasma membrane (see also the companion paper from Duran et al. in this issue). In contrast to the enormous advances made regarding mechanisms of conventional protein secretion, mechanistic insights into the unconventional secretion of proteins are lacking. Acyl coenzyme A (CoA)–binding protein (ACBP; AcbA in Dictyostelium discoideum), an unconventionally secreted protein, is dependent on Golgi reassembly and stacking protein (GRASP) for its secretion. We discovered, surprisingly, that the secretion, processing, and function of an AcbA-derived peptide, SDF-2, are conserved between the yeast Pichia pastoris and D. discoideum. We show that in yeast, the secretion of SDF-2–like activity is GRASP dependent, triggered by nitrogen starvation, and requires autophagy proteins as well as medium-chain fatty acyl CoA generated by peroxisomes. Additionally, a phospholipase D implicated in soluble N-ethyl-maleimide sensitive fusion protein attachment protein receptor–mediated vesicle fusion at the plasma membrane is necessary, but neither peroxisome turnover nor fusion between autophagosomes and the vacuole is essential. Moreover, yeast Acb1 and several proteins required for its secretion are necessary for sporulation in P. pastoris. Our findings implicate currently unknown, evolutionarily conserved pathways in unconventional secretion.

Abstract
The interaction of renal basolateral organic anion transporter 3 (Oat3) with commonly used pharmacotherapeutics (e.g., NSAIDs, beta-lactams, and methotrexate) has been studied extensively in vitro. However, the in vivo role of Oat3 in drug disposition, in the context of other transporters, glomerular filtration, and metabolism, has not been established. Moreover, recent investigations have identified inactive human OAT3 polymorphisms. Therefore, this investigation was designed to elucidate the in vivo role of Oat3 in the disposition of penicillin G and prototypical substrates using an Oat3 knockout mouse model. Oat3 deletion resulted in a doubling of penicillin's half-life (P < 0.05) and a reduced volume of distribution (P < 0.01), together yielding a plasma clearance that was one-half (P < 0.05, males) to one-third (P < 0.001, females) of that in wild-type mice. Inhibition of Oat3 abolished the differences in penicillin G elimination between genotypes. Hepatic accumulation of penicillin was 2.3 times higher in male knockouts (P < 0.05) and 3.7 times higher in female knockouts (P < 0.001). Female knockouts also exhibited impaired estrone-3-sulfate clearance. Oat3 deletion did not impact p-aminohippurate elimination, providing correlative evidence to studies in Oat1 knockout mice that suggest Oat1 governs tubular uptake of p-aminohippurate. Collectively, these findings are the first to indicate that functional Oat3 is necessary for proper elimination of xenobiotic and endogenous compounds in vivo. Thus Oat3 plays a distinct role in determining the efficacy and toxicity of drugs. Dysfunctional human OAT3 polymorphisms or instances of polypharmacy involving OAT3 substrates may result in altered systemic accumulation of beta-lactams and other clinically relevant compounds.

Abstract
The disposition of many drugs in cystic fibrosis is abnormal. In general, changes in pharmacokinetics include: increased volume of distribution, decreased plasma concentration, and enhanced renal and sometimes non-renal elimination of drugs. Pathophysiology of the disease important for drug disposition includes: (a) hypersecretion of gastric acid and duodenal secretions which are of small volume, viscous and low in bicarbonate; (b) increased intestinal permeability to some sugars and probe substances; (c) hypergammaglobulinaemia and sometimes hypoalbuminaemia; (d) significant elevation of free fatty palmitoleic acid level and decreased low-density and high-density serum lipoproteins; (e) an average increase by 30 to 45% in plasma volume in patients with cystic fibrosis who have moderately severe pulmonary disease, right ventricle hypertrophy and dilatation, which occurs in 15 to 35% of patients with a Shwachman score of 81 to 100; (f) abnormal bile acid metabolism and enterohepatic recirculation; and (g) enlarged kidneys and glomerulomegaly with increased glomerular filtration rate, tubular clearance and urine flow rate in some patients with cystic fibrosis. Delayed absorption from the gastrointestinal tract has been reported in patients with cystic fibrosis for cloxacillin, epicillin, clindamycin, ciprofloxacin and probably for cephalexin, para-aminobenzoic acid and chloramphenicol. A possible increased absorption was reported for cimetidine. Of 7 drugs studied only theophylline had significantly decreased plasma protein binding. An increased volume of distribution and increased renal clearance reported for several drugs is caused mainly by increases in plasma volume and urine flow rate in many of these patients. Possible increased elimination of some drugs in bile (which probably results from bile acid malabsorption) and in bronchial secretions (which are abundant in some cystic fibrosis patients with acute pulmonary infection) may explain enhanced non-renal elimination of these drugs. The metabolism of cimetidine in cystic fibrosis was reported not to be changed significantly compared to control subjects.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of the novel acylureidopenicillin furazlocillin, 6-[D-2-(3-furfurylidenamino-2-oxo-imidazolidine-1-carboxamido)-2 -(4-hydroxyphenyl)-acetamido]-penicillanic acid and of its penicilloic acid derivative were investigated in five healthy male volunteers after intravenous administration of 2 and 4 g dosages. The volunteers were either in a lying or sitting position throughout the duration of the studies. The concentrations of the drug in plasma and urine were measured by two different methods in parallel: a microbiological assay and a newly developed high pressure liquid chromatography method. The latter method was also applicable for quantitation of the penicilloic acid derivative in these biological fluids. The drug's plasma protein binding (66%) and apparent red cell-plasma partition coefficient (0.055) were concentration independent. The pharmacokinetics of the drug were first order only at the lower dose level. The apparent half lives of three distinguishable phases were, respectively, 4(t1/21), 18 (t1/22), and 64 (t1/2z) min. The total and renal clearances of the drug were, respectively, 303 and 79 ml/min. The latter value implied tubular secretion of the drug. Graphical and digital computer analyses of the data were performed with a linear three compartment body model. Small but consistent deviations from linear kinetics caused by the nonrenal elimination route were observed after administration of the higher dose (4 g). In contrast, renal elimination showed no such dose dependency and was first order. The disposition kinetics of furazlocillin were body position independent. The penicilloic acid derivative of furazlocillin was found in plasma and urine in all the five subjects tested. The percentage of the dose excreted renally as the derivative amounted, respectively, to 5.2 and 7.0% after the lower and higher dosage of furazlocillin, with significant inter- and intrasubject variability. The renal clearance of the derivative was 41 ml/min.

Abstract
Lipid synthesis increases coordinately with protein and RNA synthesis during morphogenesis of Mucor racemosus. The lipid synthesis inhibitor cerulenin can completely block morphogenesis under conditions in which cell growth continues. An increase in phospholipid turnover may be an important correlate to morphogenesis of Mucor spp., especially the turnover of phosphotidyl inositol and phosphatidyl ethanolamine. The increase in ornithine decarboxylase, which occurs during morphogenesis, is inhibited by the addition of cerulenin.

Abstract
Serum and brain tissue concentrations were determined after i.v. administration of 4 g cephradine to 11 patients of whom 6 were additionally receiving 40 mg furosemide t.i.d. peroral. Five further patients were given 4 g cephalothin i.v. All patients were undergoing a brain operation at the time of antibiotic administration. Between 60 and 100 min after dosage, cephradine decreased in the serum from 104.9 mcg/ml to 56.7 mcg/ml and in the brain tissue from 13.02 mcg/g to 8.37 mcg/g in the mean. Cephradine concentrations in serum were higher and in brain tissue lower when furosemide was given as well. These differences are statistically significant (p less than 0.01). Serum concentrations of cephalothin over the same period and in the absence of furosemide were very low with 32.2 mcg/ml at 60 to 70 min, and extremely low in the brain tissue (0.55 mcg/g in the mean) so that a trial with furosemide was not performed. Neither antibiotic was detectable in the cerebrospinal fluid. The differences in serum and brain tissue concentrations of cephradine in the presence and absence of furosemide demonstrate that special care must be taken when administering more than one drug.

Abstract
Conjugation in Tetrahymena pyriformis is induced by the mixing of two starved complementary mating types. Addition of the antibiotic cerulenin, a specific inhibitor of de novo lipid synthesis, upon mixing of the mating types inhibited the conjugation process. The inhibition of conjugation was found to be reversible upon washing the cells. Cerulenin inhibited [14C]acetate incorporation into the lipid fraction of the cells, while it did not affect the incorporation of [3H]leucine into proteins. Analysis of the fatty acid composition of the whole cells revealed that during conjugation the ratio of saturated to unsaturated fatty acids is markedly changed. While the ratio of saturated:unsaturated fatty acids is 0.30 in unconjugated cells, it reached a value of 0.45 in conjugated cells.

Abstract
Azlocillin, a new semisynthetic penicillin with a wide spectrum of antimicrobial activity and a member of the ureidopenicillin group, was administered to ten adults in a dosage of 2 g by intravenous bolus injection. The determination of antibiotic activity in serum and urine demonstrated an average concentration of 58.9 mug/ml after one hour, 28.1 mug/ml after two hours and 6.1 mug/ml after four hours. The total urinary excretion was 60% within six hours. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated for the one and two compartment models, respectively. Mathematical analysis according to an open two-compartment model resulted in better curve adjustment as judged from the sum of the deviant squares. The resulting parameters for volume of distribution and rate of elimination show only minor differences however. Similar results were seen on comparison with the respective data for ampicillin.

Abstract
Ampicillin and amoxicillin (alpha-amino-p-hydroxybenzyl penicillin) were administered orally in 500-mg doses to eight fasting volunteers in a comparative study in which pharmacokinetic techniques were used. The absorption of amoxicillin was significantly better, as demonstrated by a higher mean peak serum concentration of 7.6 mug/ml as compared to 3.2 mug/ml for ampicillin, an average "area under the curve" that was approximately double that of ampicillin, and an 8-hr urinary recovery for amoxicillin of 60% as compared to 34% for ampicillin. Serum half-lives were the same for the two antibiotics, with values of 60.3 (+/-3.3) min for ampicillin and 61.3 (+/-5.6) min for amoxicillin. The latter drug gave measurable concentrations in the blood at 8 hr in all of eight volunteers, as compared to only three of eight with ampicillin.
