Abstract
Knowledge of gender-specific drug distributions in different organs are of great importance for personalized medicine and reducing toxicity. However, such drug distributions have not been well studied. In this study, we investigated potential differences in the distribution of imipramine and chloroquine, as well as their metabolites, between male and female kidneys. Kidneys were collected from mice treated with imipramine or chloroquine and then subjected to atmospheric pressure matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry imaging (AP-MALDI-MSI). We observed differential distributions of the drugs and their metabolites between male and female kidneys. Imipramine showed prominent distributions in the cortex and medulla in male and female kidneys, respectively. Desipramine, one of the metabolites of imipramine, showed significantly higher (*** p < 0.001) distributions in the medulla of the male kidney compared to that of the female kidney. Chloroquine and its metabolites were accumulated in the pelvis of both male and female kidneys. Interestingly, they showed a characteristic distribution in the medulla of the female kidney, while almost no distributions were observed in the same areas of the male kidney. For the first time, our study revealed that the distributions of imipramine, chloroquine, and their metabolites were different in male and female kidneys.

Lysosomal membrane stabilization by imipramine attenuates gentamicin-induced renal injury: Enhanced LAMP2 expression, down-regulation of cytoplasmic cathepsin D and tBid/cytochrome c/cleaved caspase-3 apoptotic signaling. Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 126:111179. [PMID: 37995569 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.111179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
Nephrotoxicity is a serious complication commonly encountered with gentamicin (GTM) treatment. Permeabilization of lysosomes with subsequent cytoplasmic release of GTM and cathepsins is considered a crucial issue in progression of GTM toxicity. This study was designed to evaluate the prospective defensive effect of lysosomal membrane stabilization by imipramine (IMP) against GTM nephrotoxicity in rats. GTM (30 mg/kg/h) was intraperitoneally administered over 4 h daily (120 mg/kg/day) for 7 days. IMP (30 mg/kg/day) was orally administered for 14 days; starting 7 days before and then concurrently with GTM. On 15th day, samples (urine, blood, kidney) were collected to estimate biomarkers of kidney function, lysosomal stability, apoptosis, and inflammation. IMP administration to GTM-treated rats ameliorated the disruption in lysosomal membrane stability induced by GTM. That was evidenced by enhanced renal protein expressions of LAMP2 and PI3K, but reduced cathepsin D cytoplasmic expression in kidney sections. Besides, IMP guarded against apoptosis in GTM-treated rats by down-regulation of the pro-apoptotic (tBid, Bax, cytochrome c) and the effector cleaved caspase-3 expressions, while the anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 expression was enhanced. Additionally, the inflammatory cascade p38 MAPK/NF-κB/TNF-α was attenuated in GTM + IMP group along with marked improvement in kidney function biomarkers, compared to GTM group. These findings were supported by the obvious improvement in histological architecture. Furthermore, in vitro enhancement of the antibacterial activity of GTM by IMP confers an additional benefit to their combination. Conclusively, lysosomal membrane stabilization by IMP with subsequent suppression of tBid/cytochrome c/cleaved caspase-3 apoptotic signaling could be a promising protective strategy against GTM nephrotoxicity.

The role of NLRP3 inflammasome in psychotropic drug-induced hepatotoxicity. Cell Death Dis 2022; 8:313.

Abstract
Increased medical application of psychotropic drugs raised attention concerning their toxicological effects. In fact, more than 160 psychotropic drugs including antidepressants and antipsychotics, have been shown to cause liver side effects, but the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. Here, we discovered that fluoxetine, a common antidepressant, was specifically sensed by NLRP3 inflammasome, whose subsequent activation resulted in the maturation of caspase-1 and IL-1β, as well as gasdermin D (GSDMD) cleavage, which could be completely abrogated by a selective NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 or Nlrp3 knockout (Nlrp3−/−). Mechanistically, mitochondrial damage and the subsequent mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) accumulation were crucial upstream signaling events in fluoxetine-triggered NLRP3 inflammasome activation. In fluoxetine hepatotoxicity models, mice showed the alterations of aminotransferase levels, hepatic inflammation and hepatocyte death in an NLRP3-dependent manner, and MCC950 pretreatment could reverse these side effects of fluoxetine. Notably, we also found that multiple antidepressants, such as amitriptyline, paroxetine, and imipramine, and antipsychotics, such as asenapine, could specifically trigger the NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Collectively, our findings implicate multiple psychotropic drugs may act as danger signals sensed by the NLRP3 inflammasome and result in hepatic injury.

Abstract
Minerals are critical for maintaining overall health. These tiny chemical compounds are responsible for enzymatic activation, maintaining healthy teeth and bones, regulating energy metabolism, enhancing immunity, and aiding muscle and brain function. However, mineral deficiency in the form of inadequate or under nourished intake affects millions of people throughout the world, with well-documented adverse health consequences of malnutrition. Conversely, mineral deficiency may also be a risk factor for Insulin Resistance (IR) and obesity. This review focuses on another, more "less discussed" form of malnutrition, namely mineral deficiency and its contribution to metabolic disorders. At the cellular level, minerals maintain not only molecular communication but also trigger several key biochemical pathways. Disturbances in these processes due to mineral insufficiency may gradually lead to metabolic disorders such as insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, and central obesity, which might lead to renal failure, cardiac arrest, hepatic carcinoma, and various neurodegenerative diseases. Here we discuss the burden of disease promoted by mineral deficiencies and the medical, social, and economic consequences. Mineral deficiency-mediated IR and obesity have a considerable negative impact on individual well-being, physical consideration, and economic productivity. We discuss possible molecular mechanisms of mineral deficiency that may lead to IR and obesity and suggest strategies to counter these metabolic disorders. To protect mankind from mineral nutrient deficiencies, the key is to take a variety of foods in reasonable quantities, such as organic and pasture-raised eggs, low fat dairy, and grass-fed and finished meats, insecticide, and pesticide-free vegetables and fruits.
