Abstract
Alaska Native people are under-represented in genetic research but have unique gene variation that may critically impact their response to pharmacotherapy. Full resequencing of CYP2C9 in a cross-section of this population identified CYP2C9 Met1Leu (M1L), a novel, relatively common single nucleotide polymorphism hypothesized to confer CYP2C9 poor metabolizer phenotype by disrupting the start codon. M1L is present at a minor allele frequency of 6.3% in Yup'ik Alaska Native people and thus can contribute to the risk of an adverse drug response from narrow-therapeutic-index CYP2C9 substrates such as (S)-warfarin. This study's objective was to characterize the catalytic efficiency of the Leu1 variant enzyme in vivo by evaluating the pharmacokinetic behavior of naproxen, a probe substrate for CYP2C9 activity, in genotyped Yup'ik participants. We first confirmed the selectivity of (S)-naproxen O-demethylation by CYP2C9 using activity-phenotyped human liver microsomes and selective cytochrome P450 inhibitors and then developed and validated a novel liquid chromatography mass spectrometry method for simultaneous quantification of (S)-naproxen, (S)-O-desmethylnaproxen, and naproxen acyl glucuronide in human urine. The average ratio of (S)-O-desmethylnaproxen to unchanged (S)-naproxen in urine was 18.0 ± 8.0 (n = 11) for the homozygous CYP2C9Met1 reference group and 10.3 ± 6.6 (n = 11) for the Leu1 variant carrier group (P = 0.011). The effect of M1L variation on CYP2C9 function and its potential to alter the pharmacokinetics of drugs metabolized by the enzyme has clinical implications and should be included in a variant screening panel when pharmacogenetic testing in the Alaska Native population is warranted. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The novel CYP2C9 Met1Leu variant in Alaska Native people was recently identified. This study validated (S)-naproxen as a CYP2C9 probe substrate to characterize the in vivo functional activity of the CYP2C9 Leu1 variant. The results of this pharmacogenetic-pharmacokinetic study suggest that the CYP2C9 Leu1 variant exhibits loss of enzyme activity. This finding may be important to consider when administering narrow-therapeutic-index medications metabolized by CYP2C9 and also compels further investigation to characterize novel genetic variation in understudied populations.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized through the coprecipitation method on the graphene oxide anchored pencil lead as a substrate for the first time and applied as an efficient sorbent for pseudo stir bar sorptive extraction of nabumetone. The extracted analyte was determined by a novel spectrophotometric method based on the aggregation of silicate sol-gel stabilized silver nanoparticles in the presence of the analyte. The synthesized polymer was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy. Optimization of important parameters affecting the extraction efficiency was done using central composite design whereas the spectrophotometric method was optimized via one at a time variable. Under the optimal conditions, the calibration curve exhibited linearity in the concentration range of 1.5-20.0 μg L-1. A limit of detection of 0.20 μg L-1, an enhancement factor of 393 and relative standard deviations (at 10 μg L-1, n = 6) of 4.6% and 8.1% for intra- and inter-day analysis were obtained. The developed procedure was successfully utilized for the quantification of traces of nabumetone in tap water and biological samples with the complex matrix including human urine and serum.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are inhibitors of cyclooxygenase (COX) in tissues and used as therapeutic agents in different species. Grapiprant, a member of the piprant class of compounds, antagonizes prostaglandin receptors. It is a highly selective EP4 prostaglandin E2 receptor inhibitor, thereby limiting the potential for adverse effects caused by wider COX inhibition. The objectives of this study were to determine if the approved canine dose would result in measurable concentrations in horses, and to validate a chromatographic method of analysis for grapiprant in urine and plasma. STUDY DESIGN Experimental study. ANIMALS A total of six healthy, adult mixed-breed mares weighing 502 ± 66 (397-600) kg and aged 14.8 ± 5.3 (6-21) years. METHODS Mares were administered one dose of 2 mg kg-1 grapiprant via nasogastric tube. Blood and urine samples were collected prior to and up to 48 hours after drug administration. Drug concentrations were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS Grapiprant plasma concentrations ranged from 71 to 149 ng mL-1 with the mean peak concentration (106 ng mL-1) occurring at 30 minutes. Concentrations were below the lower limit of quantification (50 ng mL-1) in four of six horses at 1 hour and in all six horses by 2 hours after drug administration. Grapiprant urine concentrations ranged from 40 to 4077 ng mL-1 and were still detectable at 48 hours after administration. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Currently, there are no published studies looking at the pharmacodynamics of grapiprant in horses. The effective concentration needed to control pain in dogs ranges 114-164 ng mL-1. Oral administration of grapiprant (2 mg kg-1) in horses did not achieve those concentrations. The dose was well tolerated; therefore, studies with larger doses could be conducted.

Abstract
Prediction and early detection of kidney damage induced by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) would provide the best chances of maximizing the anti-inflammatory effects while minimizing the risk of kidney damage. Unfortunately, biomarkers for detecting NSAID-induced kidney damage in cats remain to be discovered. To identify potential urinary biomarkers for monitoring NSAID-based treatments, we applied an untargeted metabolomics approach to urine collected from cats treated repeatedly with meloxicam or saline for up to 17 days. Applying multivariate analysis, this study identified a panel of seven metabolites that discriminate meloxicam treated from saline treated cats. Combining artificial intelligence machine learning algorithms and an independent testing urinary metabolome data set from cats with meloxicam-induced kidney damage, a panel of metabolites was identified and validated. The panel of metabolites including tryptophan, tyrosine, taurine, threonic acid, pseudouridine, xylitol and lyxitol, successfully distinguish meloxicam-treated and saline-treated cats with up to 75–100% sensitivity and specificity. This panel of urinary metabolites may prove a useful and non-invasive diagnostic tool for monitoring potential NSAID induced kidney injury in feline patients and may act as the framework for identifying urine biomarkers of NSAID induced injury in other species.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of diclofenac were investigated following single oral doses of 10 mg/kg to chimeric liver humanized and murinized FRG and C57BL/6 mice. In addition, the metabolism and excretion were investigated in chimeric liver humanized and murinized FRG mice. Diclofenac reached maximum blood concentrations of 2.43 ± 0.9 µg/mL (n = 3) at 0.25 h post-dose with an AUCinf of 3.67 µg h/mL and an effective half-life of 0.86 h (n = 2). In the murinized animals, maximum blood concentrations were determined as 3.86 ± 2.31 µg/mL at 0.25 h post-dose with an AUCinf of 4.94 ± 2.93 µg h/mL and a half-life of 0.52 ± 0.03 h (n = 3). In C57BL/6J mice, mean peak blood concentrations of 2.31 ± 0.53 µg/mL were seen 0.25 h post-dose with a mean AUCinf of 2.10 ± 0.49 µg h/mL and a half-life of 0.51 ± 0.49 h (n = 3). Analysis of blood indicated only trace quantities of drug-related material in chimeric humanized and murinized FRG mice. Metabolic profiling of urine, bile and faecal extracts revealed a complex pattern of metabolites for both humanized and murinized animals with, in addition to unchanged parent drug, a variety of hydroxylated and conjugated metabolites detected. The profiles in humanized mice were different to those of both murinized and wild-type animals, e.g., a higher proportion of the dose was detected in the form of acyl glucuronide metabolites and much reduced amounts as taurine conjugates. Comparison of the metabolic profiles obtained from the present study with previously published data from C57BL/6J mice and humans revealed a greater, though not complete, match between chimeric humanized mice and humans, such that the liver humanized FRG model may represent a model for assessing the biotransformation of such compounds in humans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resveratrol may play a protective role against the frailty syndrome (FS) because of its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. OBJECTIVE We prospectively evaluated the association between habitual dietary resveratrol exposure and the development of FS after 3-, 6-, and 9-y follow-up periods in a community-dwelling older population. DESIGN We conducted a longitudinal analysis with the use of data from 769 participants aged ≥65 y from the Invecchiare in Chianti (Aging in Chianti) study. Total dietary resveratrol (TDR) intake was estimated at baseline with the use of a validated food-frequency questionnaire, which was developed to assess participants' usual food intakes over the previous year, and an ad hoc resveratrol database. Total urinary resveratrol (TUR) was analyzed with the use of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with a previous solid-phase extraction at baseline. The combination of both measures [total dietary resveratrol plus total urinary resveratrol (TDR+TUR)] was computed with the use of the Howe's method. FS was assessed at baseline and at 3-, 6-, and 9-y of follow-up and was defined as the presence of ≥3 of the following 5 criteria: shrinking, exhaustion, sedentariness, slowness, and weakness. RESULTS TDR+TUR concentrations were inversely associated with FS risk over 3-y of follow-up (OR for comparison of extreme tertiles: 0.11; 95% CI: 0.03, 0.45; P-trend = 0.002) but not after 6- and 9-y of follow-up in multinomial logistic regression models adjusted for baseline frailty status and potential confounders. These results did not differ when analyses were further adjusted for inflammatory markers. CONCLUSION Higher habitual dietary resveratrol exposure was associated with lower risk of older community dwellers developing FS during the first 3 y of follow-up but not after longer follow-up periods.

Abstract
A simple solid phase microextraction method based on molecularly imprinted polymer sorbent in the hollow fiber (MIP-HF-SPME) combined with fiber optic-linear array spectrophotometer has been applied for the extraction and determination of diclofenac in environmental and biological samples. The effects of different parameters such as pH, times of extraction, type and volume of the organic solvent, stirring rate and donor phase volume on the extraction efficiency of the diclofenac were investigated and optimized. Under the optimal conditions, the calibration graph was linear (r(2)=0.998) in the range of 3.0-85.0 μg L(-1) with a detection limit of 0.7 μg L(-1) for preconcentration of 25.0 mL of the sample and the relative standard deviation (n=6) less than 5%. This method was applied successfully for the extraction and determination of diclofenac in different matrices (water, urine and plasma) and accuracy was examined through the recovery experiments.

Abstract
This research advances the knowledge of ion-exchange of four non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) - diclofenac (DCF), ibuprofen (IBP), ketoprofen (KTP), and naproxen (NPX) - and one analgesic drug-paracetamol (PCM) - by strong-base anion exchange resin (AER) in synthetic ureolyzed urine. Freundlich, Langmuir, Dubinin-Astakhov, and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm models were fit to experimental equilibrium data using nonlinear least squares method. Favorable ion-exchange was observed for DCF, KTP, and NPX, whereas unfavorable ion-exchange was observed for IBP and PCM. The ion-exchange selectivity of the AER was enhanced by van der Waals interactions between the pharmaceutical and AER as well as the hydrophobicity of the pharmaceutical. For instance, the high selectivity of the AER for DCF was due to the combination of Coulombic interactions between quaternary ammonium functional group of resin and carboxylate functional group of DCF, van der Waals interactions between polystyrene resin matrix and benzene rings of DCF, and possibly hydrogen bonding between dimethylethanol amine functional group side chain and carboxylate and amine functional groups of DCF. Based on analysis of covariance, the presence of multiple pharmaceuticals did not have a significant effect on ion-exchange removal when the NSAIDs were combined in solution. The AER reached saturation of the pharmaceuticals in a continuous-flow column at varying bed volumes following a decreasing order of DCF > NPX ≈ KTP > IBP. Complete regeneration of the column was achieved using a 5% (m/m) NaCl, equal-volume water-methanol solution. Results from multiple treatment and regeneration cycles provide insight into the practical application of pharmaceutical ion-exchange in ureolyzed urine using AER.

Abstract
A novel and sensitive solid phase extraction method based on the adsorption of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide on the surface of Fe3O4 nanoparticles was developed for extraction and preconcentration of ultra-trace amounts of mefenamic acid in biological fluids. The remarkable properties of Fe3O4 nanoparticles including high surface area and strong magnetization were utilized in this SPE procedure so that a high enrichment factor (98) and satisfactory extraction recoveries (92-99%) were obtained using only 50mg of magnetic adsorbent. Furthermore, a fast separation time (about 15min) was achieved for a large sample volume (200mL) avoiding time-consuming column-passing process of conventional SPE. A comprehensive study on the parameters effecting the extraction recovery such of the amount of surfactant, pH value, the amount of Fe3O4 nanoparticles, sample volume, desorption conditions and ionic strength were also presented. Under the optimum conditions, the method was linear in the 0.2-200ngmL(-1) range and good linearity (r(2)>0.9991) was obtained for all calibration curves. The limit of detection was 0.097 and 0.087ngmL(-1) in plasma and urine samples, respectively. The relative standard deviation (RSD %) for 10 and 50ngmL(-1) of the analyte (n=5) were 1.6% and 2.1% in plasma and 1.2% and 1.9% in urine samples, respectively. Finally, the method was successfully applied to the extraction and preconcentration of mefenamic acid in human plasma and urine samples.

Abstract
A rapid, reliable and cost effective analytical procedure for the estimation of ibuprofen in pharmaceutical formulations and human urine samples was developed using transmission Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. For the determination of ibuprofen, a KBr window with 500 μm spacer was used to acquire the FT-IR spectra of standards, pharmaceuticals as well as urine samples. Partial least square (PLS) calibration model was developed based on region from 1807 to 1,461 cm(-1) using ibuprofen standards ranging from 10 to 100 μg ml(-1). The developed model was evaluated by cross-validation to determine standard error of the models such as root mean square error of calibration (RMSEC), root mean square error of cross validation (RMSECV) and root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP). The coefficient of determination (R(2)) achieved was 0.998 with minimum errors in RMSEC, RMSECV and RMSEP with the value of 1.89%, 1.63% and 4.07%, respectively. The method was successfully applied to urine and pharmaceutical samples and obtained good recovery (98-102%).

Abstract
Benoxaprofen (BOP) is a 2-methyl propionic acid derivative with anti-inflammatory activity. BOP has an asymmetric carbon, and receives chiral inversion from R to S in vivo. BOP is metabolized to glucuronide (BOP-G) and taurine conjugate (BOP-T). The configuration of BOP-G is mainly S, and that of BOP-T is R. Chiral inversion of R to S of the propionic acid moiety and amino acid conjugation of carboxyl compounds proceed via an acyl CoA intermediate. It is known that fibrates, used in hyperlipidemia, induce acyl CoA synthetase and increase CoA concentration. We administered racemic BOP (10 mg/kg body weight) to rats (CFA+) pre-administered clofibric acid (CFA, 280 mg/kg/day), and studied BOP, BOP-G, and BOP-T enantiomer concentrations in plasma and bile up to 12 h after administration. The findings were compared with those in rats (CFA-) that had not received CFA. Furthermore, we studied the amounts of BOP-G enantiomer produced by glucuronidation in vitro using microsomes pretreated with CFA. The amounts of (S)-BOP-G in CFA+ rats were 2.7-fold larger than that in CFA- rats. Although (R)-BOP-T was excreted in CFA- rats, BOP-T could not be detected in CFA+ rats. Plasma clearance values of racemic BOP and (S)-BOP in CFA+ rats were 5-fold and 6-fold larger than those in CFA- rats, respectively. (S)-BOP-G formation activities were higher than (R)-BOP-G formation activities in both CFA+and CFA- microsomes. These findings suggest that CFA increases biliary excretion of (S)-BOP-G and facilitates plasma elimination of BOP, and further suggests that CFA predominantly induces chiral inversion to S rather than metabolic reaction to (R)-BOP-T, resulting in an increase of (S)-BOP-G.

Abstract
This work was devoted to the elucidation of conditions for isolation of ketorolac and diclofenac from biological fluids. A method is proposed for the extraction of these compounds from solutions with organic solvents at different pH values. Other methods permit to optimize identification of analytes by thin layer chromatography while the densitometric technique may be used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of their composition in biological fluids.

Abstract
PURPOSE CYP2C8 seems to be involved in diclofenac 5-hydroxylation, while, in vitro, the 4'-hydroxylation and 3'-hydroxylation seem to be mediated mainly by CYP2C9. We have demonstrated the relevance of CYP2C9 genotypes for diclofenac 4'-hydroxylation in healthy volunteers, so that the present study was aimed at analyzing the role of both CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 genotypes on diclofenac metabolism, as well as determining the CYP2C8 allele frequencies and their relationship with CYP2C9 variants. METHODS A group of 142 healthy white Spanish volunteers was studied. Previously, 102 of these subjects had been phenotyped with diclofenac and genotyped for CYP2C9. The CYP2C8 genotypes were determined by allele-specific PCR-RFLP methods. The urinary concentrations of diclofenac and its main metabolites were analysed using an HPLC-UV method after the administration of a single oral dose of diclofenac as described previously for part of the population studied here. RESULTS The diclofenac/5-hydroxydiclofenac urinary concentration ratio was higher in individuals carrying a CYP2C8*3 or CYP2C8*4 allele than in those homozygous for wild-type allele CYP2C8*1 (P < 0.05). Moreover, approximately 93% of the subjects with a CYP2C8*3 allele also carried a CYP2C9*2, and 80% of the subjects that had CYP2C9*2 variant also carried a CYP2C8*3. In addition, the four CYP2C9*2/*2 individuals were CYP2C8*3/*3. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study showing the influence of CYP2C8 genotypes on diclofenac metabolism in vivo. The linkage disequilibrium between CYP2C8*3 and CYP2C9*2 alleles was confirmed in this Spanish population.

Abstract
To study the tissue distribution and excretion of indomethacin 5-fluorouracil-1-ylmethyl ester (IFM) metabolite 5-fluorouracil in rats, an accurate and specific high performance liquid chromatography method for quantifying IFM in rat plasma and tissues was developed. Biological samples were prepared by liquid-liquid extraction and separated on a Diamonsil C18 column (250 mm x 4.6 mm ID, 5 microm). The mobile phase for tissue samples, plasma samples and feces samples were composed of methanol-water-36% acetic acid (3:96.9:0.1, v/v) and the mobile phase for urine samples was a mixture of methanol-water-36% acetic acid (10:89.9:0.1, v/v). The eluate was monitored by UV absorbance at 260 nm. After a single ig dose of 100 mg x kg(-1) IFM in rats, 5-Fu was mainly distributed in stomach, small intestine, and liver. The concentrations of 5-fluorouracil in other tissues and plasma were low. The excretion of 5-Fu in urine and feces amounted to 0.0065% and 0.063% of the dose, respectively. The method is shown to be accurate and specific, and suitable for preclinical pharmacokinetic studies of IFM.

Abstract
In addition to size-dependent allometric metabolic activity, most isoenzymes display age-dependent isoenzyme-specific ontogeny. We therefore need probe drugs to describe isoenzyme-specific ontogeny to develop more sophisticated, physiologically based models. We illustrate the feasibility and the relevance of in vivo assessment of hepatic metabolism, based on observations on urinary elimination of paracetamol and tramadol metabolites in neonates. On the basis of the observations on tramadol disposition, we were able to document that O-demethylation phenotypic activity developed sooner when compared with N-demethylation. During repeated administration of intravenous paracetamol, it was documented that, in addition to postmenstrual and postnatal age (PNA), repeated administration also contributed to the urinary excretion of glucuronidated paracetamol. In both probe drugs evaluated, age only in part explained the interindividual variability observed. Urine metabolites to assess in vivo metabolism of drugs routinely administered in neonates likely increase both the feasibility and clinical relevance of studies on in vivo isoenzyme-specific ontogeny in neonates.

Abstract
Last years, the usefulness of the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as sorbent material have been demonstrated for a wide variety of compounds. In this work, it has been demonstrated for first time that immobilized carboxylated single-walled carbon nanotubes (c-SWNTs) offer clear advantages over the use of CNTs. The higher adsorption capacity has been attributed to the special orientation of c-SWNTs molecules on the glass surface. The potential of this new sorbent was evaluated for the preconcentration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) from urine samples. Purified samples were analysed by capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry detection allowing the determination of 1.6 to 2.6 microg/L of NSAIDs with only 5 mL of sample. The precision of the method for the determination of real spiked urine samples ranged from 5.4 to 7.4% and the recoveries from 98.6 to 102.2%.

Abstract
A rapid chemiluminescence method is described for the determination of ketoprofen by combining the flow injection technique and its sensitizing effect on the weak chemiluminescence reaction between sulfite and acidic permanganate. The optimum conditions for the chemiluminescence emission were intensity. A mechanism for the chemiluminescence reaction has been proposed on the basis of chemiluminescent spectra. Ketoprofen can be determined over the concentration range of 5.0x10(-8) to 3.0x10(-6) mol/L with a correlation coefficient of 0.9999 and a detection limit of 2.0x10(-8) mol/L (3sigma). The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) for 15 repetitive determinations of 1.0x10(-6) mol/L ketoprofen is 0.8%. The utility of this method was demonstrated by determining ketoprofen in capsules and human urine sample.

Abstract
1-Furan-2-yl-3-pyridin-2-yl-propenone (FPP-3) is an anti-inflammatory agent with a propenone moiety. Following a single intravenous injection of male Sprague-Dawley rats with 4 mg/kg of FPP-3, three different metabolites of FPP-3 were identified as M1 (1-furan-2-yl-3-pyridin-2-yl-propan-1-one), M2 (1-furan-2-yl-3-pyridin-2-yl-propan-1-ol) and M3 (a glucuronide conjugate of M2) in rat urine by a liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. The structures of M1 and M2 were the same as observed previously following the incubation of rat liver microsomes with FPP-3 in the presence of NADPH. Although all metabolites of FPP-3 were identified in rat urine, only M1 and M2 were observed in the bile and feces. In addition, FPP-3 and its metabolites were mostly excreted into the urine. The M3 was identified as a glucuronide conjugate of M2 because of the addition of 176 Da from the protonated molecular ion of M2 in MS(2) and because of the production of free M2 following an incubation of urine with beta-glucuronidase. From these studies, a possible metabolic fate of FPP-3 could be proposed in vivo.

Abstract
A combined approach based on solid-phase optosensing and multicommutation principles has been applied to develop a method for the simultaneous analysis of two pharmaceuticals (naproxen and salicylic acid) in biological fluids. The multicommuted flow-through optosensor was based on direct native fluorescence measurements of both analgesics using a non-polar sorbent (C18 silica gel) as a solid sensing zone. The flow system was controlled by Java-written home-made software and designed using three-way solenoid valves for an independent automated manipulation of sample and carrier solutions. Using an optimized sampling time, the method was calibrated in the range of 1 - 25 and 5 - 200 ng mL(-1). The obtained detection limits were 0.3 and 1.3 ng mL(-1) for naproxen and salicylic acid, respectively, with RSD (%) values of better than 2% for both analytes. The proposed methodology was successfully applied to urine, serum and pharmaceutical preparations. Recovery percentages ranging from 96.1 to 104% were obtained for both analytes.

Abstract
A sensitive, specific, and reproducible high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with fluorescence detection was developed for determination of lefucoxib in rat plasma, urine, and feces. The method involved liquid-liquid extraction using methyl tert-butyl ether, and celecoxib was used as the internal standard. The chromatographic separation was performed on a Kromasil C18 column (250.0 mm x 4.6 mm, 5.0 microm) with a mobile phase gradient consisting of water and methanol at a flow rate of 1 ml min(-1). The assay was linear in the range of 5.0-1000.0 ng ml(-1) with a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.9994. The limit of quantification was 5.0 ng ml(-1). Inter- and intra-assay precisions were <or=14.2% and 5.5%, respectively. Relative recoveries ranged from 97.9% to 108.1%, and absolute recoveries were about 70.0% both with and without internal standard. All biological matrices (plasma, urine, and fecal homogenate) containing lefucoxib were stable for 5h at room temperature (about 20 degrees C) and they are also stable after freeze-thaw cycles. The method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic studies of lefucoxib in rats.

Abstract
The application of sub-2 microm porous particle liquid chromatography (LC) operated at elevated temperatures, coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MS), to the separation and identification of metabolites of ibuprofen present in human urine following oral administrations is illustrated. The LC/MS system generated a high-resolution analytical separation that, with an analysis time of 20 min, provided a peak capacity in the order of ca. 350. Using this system a total of nine glucuronides of the drug and its metabolites were detected, including a number of isomeric acyl glucuronides of ibuprofen itself, a side-chain-oxidized carboxylic acid acyl glucuronide and a number of acyl glucuronides of various hydroxylated metabolites. The identities of the metabolites were confirmed by their accurate mass values and the presence of the common fragment ions from ibuprofen.

Abstract
The FDA has published guidelines by which to carry out and interpret in vitro induction studies using hepatocytes but do researchers in pharmaceutical companies actually follow these to the letter? In a survey of 30 participants in the pharmaceutical industry, 19 questions were posed regarding the species investigated, methodologies and interpretations of the data. Also addressed was the in-house decision making processes as a result of in vitro induction data. The survey showed that, although the basic methods were similar, no two researchers carried out and interpreted induction assays in exactly the same way. No single method was superior but all included enzyme activities as the major end point. Hepatocytes from animal species were used to confirm animal in vivo data but only human hepatocytes were used to predict human induction responses. If a compound was found to be positive in an in vitro induction assay, few would halt the development of the compound. The majority would consider other properties of the compound (bioavailability, clearance and therapeutic concentrations) and follow the FDA recommendation to conduct clinical drug-drug interaction studies. Overall, the results from this survey indicate that there is no standard pharmaceutical industry method or evaluation criterion by which in vitro assays are carried out. Rather than adhering to the FDA guidelines, some adapt methods and interpretation according to their own experience and need (whether screening or lead optimisation). There was general consensus that studies using human hepatocyte cultures currently provide the best indication of the in vivo induction potential of NCEs. In addition, the assessment of in vitro induction data from the literature suggest that the two-fold induction threshold and the percent of positive control criteria may not be the best methods to accurately assess the in vivo induction potential of a drug. Although the two-fold induction criterion is now obsolete, more predictive models for determining the clinical induction potential are needed. Alternative models are proposed and discussed herein.

Abstract
This paper reports, for the first time, a liquid chromatographic method for the simultaneous determination of three frequently co-administered active principles, two antibiotics, ciprofloxacin (CIPRO) and cloxacillin (CLOXA) belonging to the fluoroquinolones and beta-lactam families, respectively, and ibuprofen (IBU), a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. The chromatographic separation was performed on a C-18 analytical column, using isocratic elution with methanol-acetonitrile-pH 3 formate buffer (CT = 0.1 M) (15:12:73, v/v/v) for 3 min and, after that, a linear gradient with methanol-acetonitrile (88:12, v/v) for 8 min. Several absorption spectra were obtained for each peak using a DAD detector. Chromatograms at the maximum absorption wavelength for each analyte, 220 nm for both IBU and CLOXA, and 280 nm for CIPRO were selected as the most suitable. The proposed chromatographic method requires about 15 min per sample. The presence of a urine background was tested and no interference was found. The method was satisfactorily applied to the determination of CIPRO, CLOXA, and IBU, in fortified urine, and in urine samples from a patient undergoing treatment with these three active principles, among others. Limits of quantification in urine were 1.00, 1.70, and 2.87 microg/mL for CIPRO, CLOXA, and IBU, respectively.

Abstract
Glucuronidation, an important metabolic process for the biotransformation of drugs into easily eliminable water-soluble detoxification products, can also lead to biologically active or toxic glucuronide conjugates. The present work describes a liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) approach for the characterization of naproxen and O-6-desmethylnaproxen glucuronides. The method is fast and efficient and permitted to individuate alpha and beta isomers of both naproxen and O-6-desmethylnaproxen glucuronides. The procedure could be potentially extended to the characterization of other drug metabolites.

Abstract
PURPOSE In human subjects only a small percent of oral PPS is found in urine. Commercially available PPS is a heterogeneous mixture with varying molecular weights. Our hypothesis was that only the low molecular weight fraction reaches the urine. MATERIALS AND METHODS Urine was obtained from patients with IC who were chronically receiving PPS. The amount and molecular size of PPS in the urine were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and molecular sieve chromatography. PPS was purified from Elmiron capsules and fractionated into LMW and HMW fractions. Urine recovery of PPS was measured in rabbits after oral or intravenous administration of unfractionated, LMW or HMW PPS. RESULTS The median urine PPS level in 34 patients with IC was 1.2 microg/ml (range 0.5 to 27.7). All PPS recovered from IC urine was LMW. After intravenous administration in rabbits the median recovery in urine was 47.2% (range 19.7% to 73.2%) for unfractionated PPS, 74.6% (range 31.4% to 96.3%) for LMW and 3.3% (range 2.5% to 5.0%) for HMW. After oral administration in rabbits the median recovery in urine was 7.4% (range 2.1% to 46.0%) for LMW and 0.10% (range 0.0% to 0.3%) for HMW. CONCLUSIONS In patients with IC who are on oral PPS the PPS recovered in the urine is all of LMW. In rabbits the HMW fraction of PPS is recovered in small amounts from urine after intravenous administration and not at all after oral administration.

Abstract
A spectrofluorimetric method has been developed for the quantitative determination of mefenamic, flufenamic, and meclofenamic acids in urine samples. The method is based on second-order data multivariate calibration (unfolded partial least squares (unfolded-PLS), multi-way PLS (N-PLS), parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC), self-weighted alternating trilinear decomposition (SWATLD), and bilinear least squares (BLLS)). The analytes were extracted from the urine samples in chloroform prior to the determination. The chloroform extraction was optimized for each analyte, studying the agitation time and the extraction pH, and the optimum values were 10 minutes and pH 3.5, respectively. The concentration ranges in chloroform solution of each of the analytes, used to construct the calibration matrix, were selected in the ranges from 0.15 to 0.8 microg mL-1 for flufenamic and meclofenamic acids and from 0.25 to 3.0 microg mL-1 for mefenamic acid. The combination of chloroform extraction and second-order calibration methods, using the excitation-emission matrices (EEMs) of the three analytes as analytical signals, allowed their simultaneous determination in human urine samples, in the range of approximately 80 mg L-1 to 250 mg L-1, with satisfactory results for all the assayed methods. Improved results over unfolded-PLS and N-PLS were found with PARAFAC, SWATLD, and BLLS, methods that exploit the second-order advantage.

Abstract
Ongoing low-grade chronic inflammation represents a pathogenetic background for age-related diseases. In this report, we tested the hypothesis that endogenous anti-inflammatory mechanisms may become less efficient with age, resulting in increased susceptibility to inflammatory disorders. Using previously validated ELISA assays, we evaluated urinary levels of the anti-inflammatory, pro-resolution, arachidonic acid (AA) metabolite, lipoxin (LX)A(4) and of the pro-inflammatory cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs) in volunteers aged from 26 to over 100 years. (i) LXA(4) excretion was decreased in elderly people, resulting in a profound unbalance of the LXA(4)/cysLTs ratio, which may be considered an index of the endogenous anti-inflammatory potential. A significant inverse correlation was denoted between age and the LXA(4)/cysLTs ratio (rho = -0.41, P = 0.0026). We conclude that aging is associated with a switch in arachidonic acid metabolism that prevents formation of key 'stop signals' of the inflammatory reaction. This may contribute to promote the development of disease in elderly.

Abstract
The effect of beverages prepared from the dried calyx of the flowers of Hibiscus sabdariffa on the excretion of diclofenac was investigated using a controlled study in healthy human volunteers. A high pressure liquid chromatographic method was used to analyse the 8 h urine samples collected after the administration of diclofenac with 300 mL (equivalent to 8.18 mg anthocyanins) of the beverage administered daily for 3 days. An unpaired two-tailed t-test was used to analyse for significant difference observed in the amount of diclofenac excreted before and after administration of the beverage. There was a reduction in the amount of diclofenac excreted and the wide variability observed in the control with the water beverage of Hibiscus sabdariffa (p < 0.05). There is an increasing need to counsel patients against the use of plant beverages with drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesalazine (5-aminosalicylic acid, 5-ASA) containing formulations represent a cornerstone in the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases. A novel formulation with an Eudragit L/S mixture coating has been developed to provide selective release of 5-ASA to the ileo-caecal region and the colon. AIM To determine the release of 5-ASA during the gastrointestinal transit. METHODS A single oral dose of mesalazine EC 500 mg gastroresistant tablets (Asamax) was administered to eight healthy male volunteers. Gastrointestinal transit and tablet disintegration were monitored by scintigraphy. 5-ASA release was verified by assessing plasma pharmacokinetics. RESULTS Initial tablet disintegration was observed 5.65 +/- 0.86 h after dosing, corresponding to the detection of 5-ASA in plasma. This occurred in the ileo-caecal region in three subjects and the ascending colon in the remaining five. The relative percentage of 5-ASA absorption was more pronounced in the ascending colon (41 +/- 27.4%) than the ileo-caecal region (6.6 +/- 9.2%). CONCLUSION This mesalazine EC gastroresistant tablets release locally active 5-ASA specifically in the ileo-caecal region and the ascending colon.

Abstract
Multivariate calibration methods are chemometric tools that may be applied to the analysis of spectroscopic data with multichannel detection. Two procedures, based on spectrophotometric and fluorimetric signals, are reported for the simultaneous determination of two fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin) and two nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (diclofenac and mefenamic acid) using first- and second-order multivariate calibration methods. In the spectrophotometric method, an extractive procedure into chloroform using trioctylmethylammonium chloride-adogen as counter ion was optimized, with the object of extracting the analytes from urine samples and eliminating matrix interferences. After separation, the absorption spectrum of the organic phase was used as the analytical signal in a partial least squares method. A photoinduced spectrofluorimetric (PIF) method using excitation-emission fluorescence matrices, is proposed, to apply three-way chemometric calibration, with the aim of analyzing ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and diclofenac in urine samples without the previous extractive sample-cleaning step. For both procedures, recoveries around 100% were found for all the analytes. However, the PIF three-way chemometric method provides the most sensitive and selective procedure as the urine interferences are modulated using the three-way chemometric technique.

Abstract
Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC), one of the major metabolites of curcumin, exhibits many of the same physiologic and pharmacological activities as curcumin and in some systems may exert greater antioxidant activity than curcumin. However, evaluation of clinical efficacy is limited by lack of sensitive methods for quantifying intake/absorption in blood or urine. We have developed a sensitive high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analytical method for detection of THC in plasma and urine. The method involves extracting the THC from 0.2 mL samples with 95% ethyl acetate/5% methanol, and beta-17-estradiol acetate as an internal standard. Analysis with a reversed-phase C18 column and UV detection at 280 nm demonstrates linear performance from 0.050 to 6.0 microg/mL in plasma, and 0.060 to 6.0 microg/mL in urine. The coefficients of variation for intra- and inter-assays were each<8.6%. The average recovery of THC from plasma and urine was greater than 98.5%. These data demonstrate a rapid, sensitive and accurate method for HPLC quantification of THC in plasma and urine.

Abstract
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children. Abnormal secretion of catecholamines in tissues and body fluids allows for the differential diagnosis of neuroblastoma from other neoplasms and its distinction from non-neoplastic inflammatory diseases. This is achieved by assaying homovanillic acid and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxymandelic acid, the catabolites of catecholamine metabolism. In the course of an evaluation of children with suspected neuroblastoma, homovanillic acid and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxymandelic acid were analyzed in urine samples by capillary gas chromatography with flame ionization detection after extraction and derivatization of these compounds as trimethylsilyl derivatives. In three urine samples a significant increase in biogenic amines was observed, but these results were not confirmed by thin-layer chromatography. Patient history revealed that these children had been treated with ibuprofen, an analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug. To verify how ibuprofen or its metabolites may have interfered with capillary gas chromatography with flame ionization detection, we analyzed the same samples by capillary gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. In urine samples from patients on the drug, the presence of a peak identified as the trimethylsilyl ester of hydroxyibuprofen, which had the same retention time as 4-hydroxy-3-methoxymandelic acid, was found to interfere with the capillary gas chromatography with flame ionization detection analysis of the metabolite. This interference must be taken into account during the laboratory diagnosis of neuroblastoma.

Abstract
AIM Adherence to therapy is important to ensure success. We wanted to explore this feature in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS We explored adherence to treatment and its modifiers in 40 patients with inflammatory bowel disease using a battery of tests. RESULTS A 67% of patients (95% CI: 51-81%) acknowledged a certain degree of involuntary nonadherence, and 35% (95% CI: 20-51%) of voluntary nonadherence. Overall, 72% (95% CI: 56-85%) of patients had some form of nonadherence. An objective correlation of these self-reported data was assessed by the determination of urine salicylate levels in the subset of patients treated with mesalazine or its derivatives (15 cases). Two of them (13%) had no detectable urinary drug levels, indicating complete nonadherence. Voluntary nonadherence was higher in patients with lower scores in the intestinal (p = 0.02) and social areas (p = 0.015) of IBDQ-32, as well as in those with less active Crohn s disease (p < 0.005), patients with high depression scores and high patient-physician discordance (p = 0.01), patients with long-standing disease (p = 0.057), patients who considered themselves not to be well informed about the treatment they were getting (p = 0.04) or who trusted their attending physicians less (p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Intentional nonadherence to therapy is prevalent among patients with inflammatory bowel disease. A correction of factors associated to poor adherence could lead to higher therapeutic success.

Abstract
The liposomal cream formulation of diclofenac, an NSAID, is an effective, safe, and convenient way to treat localized areas of inflammation in horses. The results of this study reveal urinary and serum concentrations of diclofenac following topical administration of 1% liposomal diclofenac cream for 10 days at the labeled dose and at 2X and 4X the labeled dose. These results demonstrate the slow absorption and elimination of 1% liposomal diclofenac cream and may be useful when estimating the withdrawal time needed before a competition in order to prevent an inadvertent positive drug test.

Abstract
A non-covalent molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesised using naproxen (a non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)) as a template molecule. The MIP was chromatographically evaluated to confirm the imprinting effect, and was then applied as a selective sorbent in solid-phase extraction (SPE) to selectively extract naproxen. After this study, the MIP was used to extract naproxen from urine samples; it was demonstrated that by applying a selective washing step with acetonitrile (ACN) the compounds in the sample that were structurally related to naproxen could be eliminated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine pharmacokinetic parameters for meloxicam, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, in horses. ANIMALS 8 healthy horses. PROCEDURE In the first phase of the study, horses were administered meloxicam once in accordance with a 2 x 2 crossover design (IV or PO drug administration; horses fed or not fed). The second phase used a multiple-dose regimen (daily oral administration of meloxicam for 14 days), with meloxicam administered at the recommended dosage (0.6 mg/kg). Plasma and urine concentrations of meloxicam were measured by use of validated methods with a limit of quantification of 10 ng/mL for plasma and 20 ng/mL for urine. RESULTS Plasma clearance was low (mean +/- SD; 34 +/- 0.5 mL/kg/h), steady-state volume of distribution was limited (0.12 +/- 0.018 L/kg), and terminal half-life was 8.54 +/- 3.02 hours. After oral administration, bioavailability was nearly total regardless of feeding status (98 +/- 12% in fed horses and 85 +/- 19% in nonfed horses). During once-daily administration for 14 days, we did not detect drug accumulation in the plasma. Meloxicam was eliminated via the urine with a urine-to-plasma concentration that ranged from 13 to 18. Concentrations were detected for a relatively short period (3 days) after administration of the final daily dose. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Results of this study support once-daily administration of meloxicam regardless of the feeding status of a horse and suggest a period of at least 3 days before urine concentrations of meloxicam reach concentrations that could be used in drug control programs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Nitric oxide-donating nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NO-NSAIDs) are a new class of cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors. To investigate whether these drugs actually release nitric oxide (NO), we labeled the nitroxy group of nitroflurbiprofen with nitrogen 15 to determine the metabolic fate of this compound in humans. METHOD Six healthy volunteers who fasted were given an oral dose of 15 N-nitroflurbiprofen (100 mg). Samples of blood, urine, and gastric headspace gas were taken over a 24-hour period to determine the levels of nitroflurbiprofen, flurbiprofen, total nitrate/nitrite, 15 N-nitrate/nitrite, COX activity, and gastric NO. In a crossover study (1 week apart), a further 6 healthy volunteers who fasted were given an oral dose of nitroflurbiprofen (100 mg) or flurbiprofen (65 mg) and levels of gastric NO were determined. RESULTS Nitroflurbiprofen was undetectable in the systemic circulation. Levels of 15 N-nitrate/nitrite (5.2% +/- 1.5% enrichment) and flurbiprofen (2.4 +/- 0.7 microg/mL) peaked at 4 hours in the plasma and gradually decreased thereafter. In unstimulated blood, the plasma levels of thromboxane B 2 (COX-1 activity) were 2 to 3 ng/mL, and after calcium ionophore stimulation, large amounts of thromboxane B 2 were produced (112 +/- 31 ng/mL). Prostaglandin E 2 was undetectable in unstimulated blood. After lipopolysaccharide stimulation, the plasma levels of prostaglandin E 2 increased to 15 +/- 4 ng/mL. The metabolite flurbiprofen inhibited plasma COX-1 activity for the duration of the study period (maximum inhibition at 4 hours), whereas COX-2 activity recovered after 6 hours. In the crossover study, levels of gastric NO were higher in subjects given nitroflurbiprofen, when compared with those given flurbiprofen. (The area under the curve for gastric NO was 435 +/- 107 ppm . h versus 305 +/- 94 ppm . h [95% confidence interval of the difference, 89-172 ppm . h; P < .001]). CONCLUSION Nitroflurbiprofen was undetectable in the systemic circulation, suggesting metabolism to 15 N-nitrate/nitrite and flurbiprofen in the presystemic circulation. Levels of gastric NO were significantly higher after ingestion of nitroflurbiprofen than flurbiprofen.

Abstract
Chromatographic analyses play an important role in the identification and determination of phase I and phase II drug metabolites. While the chemical standards of phase I metabolites are usually available from commercial sources or by various synthetic, degradation or isolation methods, the phase II drug metabolites have usually more complicated structures, their standards are in general inaccessible and their identification and determination require a comprehensive analytical approach involving the use of xenobiochemical methods and the employment of hyphenated analytical techniques. In this work, various high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods were employed in the evaluation of xenobiochemical experiments leading to the identification and determination of phase II nabumetone metabolites. Optimal conditions for the quantitative enzymatic deconjugation of phase II metabolites were found for the samples of minipig bile, small intestine contents and urine. Comparative HPLC analyses of the samples of above-mentioned biomatrices and of the same biomatrices after their enzymatic treatment using beta-glucuronidase and arylsulfatase afforded the qualitative and quantitative information about phase II nabumetone metabolites. Hereby, three principal phase II nabumetone metabolites (ether glucuronides) were discovered in minipig's body fluids and their structures were confirmed using liquid chromatography (LC)-electrospray ionization mass spectrometric (MS) analyses.

Abstract
A wall-coated histidine capillary column was developed for the on-line preconcentration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in capillary electrochromatography (CEC). A wide variety of experimental parameters, such as the sample buffer, background electrolyte (BGE) composition, concentration, sample plug lengths, water plug, and the effect of organic modifiers were studied. The relationship between peak height and injection times for the NSAIDs by variation of sample and BGE buffer concentration was investigated. On addition of sodium chloride (0.3-0.6%) to the sample zone, the stacking efficiency was increased. With acetate buffer (100 mM, pH 5.0)/ethanol (20% v/v) as BGE and sample solution in acetate buffer (0.2 mM, pH 5.0)/ethanol (20% v/v)/NaCl (0.3% w/v), NSAIDs could be determined at low microM levels without sample matrix removal. The detection limit was 0.096 microM for indoprofen, 0.110 microM for ketoprofen, 0.012 microM for naproxen, 0.023 microM for ibuprofen, 0.110 microM for fenoprofen, 0.140 microM for flurbiprofen, and 0.120 microM for suprofen. The method could be successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of NSAIDs in urine. The recoveries were better than 82% for all the analytes. The present method enables simple manipulation with UV detection for the determination of NSAIDs at low concentration levels in complex matrix samples.

Abstract
A high performance liquid chromatographic method (HPLC), together with solid phase extraction (SPE), was developed for simultaneous determination of albiflorin and paeoniflorin in rat urine after oral administration of Si-Wu decoction. The samples were pretreated with solid phase extraction using Extract-Cleantrade mark cartridges. Analysis of the extract was performed on a reversed-phase C18 column and a mobile phase made up of acetonitrile and 0.03% formic acid (17:83, v/v). UV detection was set at 230 nm. The assay was linear over the range 2.625-52.50 mg/mL for albiflorin and 3.875-77.50 microg/mL for paeoniflorin. The average percentage recoveries of three spiked urines were 97.01 +/- 3.32 and 102.32 +/- 6.97 for albiflorin and paeoniflorin, respectively. The intra-day precision (RSD) ranged from 0.21 to 1.79% at concentrations of 4.20, 10.50, 26.25 and 39.375 microg/mL of albiflorin and 0.12 to 2.92% at concentrations of 3.875, 10.85, 23.25 and 58.125 microg/mL of paeoniflorin, and inter-day precision (RSD) was from 1.02 to 1.86% for albiflorin and 0.94 to 3.30% for paeoniflorin, at the same four concentrations. This method was applied in order to analyze albiflorin and paeoniflorin in rat urine following oral administration of traditional Chinese medicinal preparation of Si-Wu decoction.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of diclofenac was studied in camels (Camelus dromedarus) (n=6) following intravenous (i.v.) administration of a dose of 2.5 mg kg(-1) body weight. The metabolism and urinary detection time were also studied. The results obtained (median and range) were as follows: the terminal elimination half-life (t(1/2beta)) was 2.35 (1.90-2.73)h, total body clearance (Cl(T)) was 0.17 (0.16-0.21)lh kg(-1). The volume of distribution at steady state (V(SS)) was 0.31 (0.21-0.39)l(-1)kg(-1), the volume of the central compartment of the two compartment pharmacokinetic model (V(C)) was 0.15 (0.11-0.17)l kg(-1). Five metabolites of diclofenac were tentatively identified in urine and were excreted mainly in conjugate form. The main metabolite was identified as hydroxy diclofenac. Both diclofenac and hydroxy diclofenac, appear to be the main elimination route for diclofenac when administered i.v. in camels. Diclofenac could be identified up to 4 days following i.v. administration in camels using a sensitive gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) method.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Leukotrienes (LTC4, LTD4, LTE4) belong to eicosanoids and they play important role in allergic inflammation. Leukotrienes are 5-lipooxygenaze products of arachinoid acid. It is known that concentration of LTE4 increases in patients with bronchial asthma, after some allergy provocation and in patients with bronchial asthma and intolerance of on steroids anti-inflammatory drugs. The aim of the study was estimated the urinary concentration of LTE4 in patients with bronchial asthma and intolerance of no steroids anti-inflammatory drugs. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study group consisted of 21 patients with asthma and intolerance of non steroids antiinflammatory drugs (F 19, M 2) in age from 21 to 72 years old (mean = 49 +/- 14), with middle time of asthma duration mean = 13.4 +/- 12.9 years In study group 11 person had positive skin test, 7 nasal polyps, and 8 person positive family history of bronchial asthma. After oral provocation aspirin challenge in 5 subjects' aspirin induced asthma was confirmed, 3 persons were not qualified to test. Urinary concentration of LTE4 before and 24 h after aspirin provocation was analyzed in all the patients. Leukotriene were detected by enzymatic Leukotriene E4, EIA Kit, Cayman Chemical test. RESULTS In group of patients with aspirin asthma basic concentration of LTE4 was 416.6 +/- 374.4 pg/mL, and after provocation 496.6 +/- 485.3 pg/mL, in the group without sensitivity to aspirin appropriate 262.9 +/- 404.0 vs 261.2 +/- 259.66 pg/mL, and in the group disqualified to test 181.6 +/- 55.75 pg/mL. CONCLUSION 1 Patients with aspirin asthma have higher concentration of LTE4. 2. Excretion of LTE4 in patients with aspirin induced asthma raised after oral aspirin provocation and higher level was detected is til 24 hours after challenge. 3. This results confirmed the role of cysteinic leukotrienes in pathogenesis of aspirin induced asthma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study analyzed the frequency of CYP2C9 variant alleles and evaluated the impact of CYP2C9 genotype on diclofenac metabolism in a Spanish population. METHODS Diclofenac hydroxylation capacity was studied in a population of 102 healthy volunteers. After a single oral dose of 50 mg diclofenac the 0- to 8-h urinary concentrations of diclofenac and its main metabolites, 4'-hydroxy (OH), 3'-OH and 5-OH diclofenac were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography. CYP2C9 genotyping for the variant alleles CYP2C9*2 and *3 was carried out with PCR-RFLP. RESULTS The frequencies of CYP2C9*1, *2, and *3 alleles were 0.74 (95%CI: 0.68-0.80), 0.16 (95%CI: 0.11-0.21) and 0.10 (95%CI: 0.06-0.15), respectively, among the 102 Spaniards studied. The diclofenac/4'-OH diclofenac urinary ratio, but not the diclofenac/3'-OH diclofenac and diclofenac/5-OH diclofenac ratios, was related to CYP2C9 genotype. The diclofenac/4'-OH ratio was significantly higher among subjects with CYP2C9*1/*3 (0.83+/-0.4, n=14, 95% CI for the difference: 0.02-0.4) and CYP2C9*2/*3 (1.10+/-0.5, n=4, 95% CI for the difference: 0.16-0.8) genotypes compared to CYP2C9*1/*1 (0.62+/-0.3, n=59) and approximately threefold higher (1.8) in the only subject homozygous for CYP2C9*3 variant. CONCLUSIONS The frequencies of CYP2C9*1, *2, and *3 alleles in the Spanish population reported here were similar to those found in the previously studied white European populations, and different of the previously reported in another Spanish population. CYP2C9*3 allele seems to influence the 4'-hydroxylation of diclofenac, although there is a large overlapping in the urinary metabolic ratio between the genotype groups studied

Abstract
In humans, diclofenac is metabolised to 4'-hydroxy (OH), 3'-OH and 5-OH metabolites. The polymorphic CYP2C9 is involved in the metabolism of diclofenac to 4'-OH diclofenac and 3'-OH diclofenac. The aim of the present study was to develop a high-performance liquid chromatographic method to simultaneously measure diclofenac and its metabolites in urine, suitable for metabolic studies. After liquid-liquid extraction the compounds were separated in a reversed-phase column and measured by ultraviolet absorption at 282 nm. For all compounds intra-day and inter-day variations were less than 7%, and the limits of quantitation were 0.25 mg/l. No analytical interference with endogenous compounds was found. The relationship between diclofenac metabolic ratios among different CYP2C9 genotypes is reported. The CYP2C9*3/*3 subject had the highest diclofenac/4'-OH ratios. However no difference was found between CYP2C9*2/*2 and *1/*1 genotypes. The chromatographic method developed was sensitive and reliable for the measurement of diclofenac and its metabolites simultaneously in human urine, and is suitable for use in diclofenac metabolism studies.

Abstract
Rimadyl (carprofen) was administered orally to the racing greyhound at a dose of 2.2 mg kg(-1). Following both alkaline and enzymatic hydrolysis, postadministration urine samples were extracted by mixed mode solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges to identify target analyte(s) for forensic screening and confirmatory analysis methods. The acidic isolates were derivatised as trimethylsilyl ethers (TMS) and analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Carprofen and five phase I metabolites were identified. Positive ion electron ionisation (EI(+)) mass spectra of the TMS derivatives of carprofen and its metabolites show a diagnostic base peak at M(+)*. -117 corresponding to the loss of COO-Si-(CH(3))(3) group as a radical. GC-MS with positive ion ammonia chemical ionisation (CI(+)) of the compounds provided both derivatised molecular mass and some structural information. Deutromethylation-TMS derivatisation was used to distinguish between aromatic and aliphatic oxidations of carprofen. The drug is rapidly absorbed, extensively metabolised and excreted as phase II conjugates in urine. Carprofen, three aromatic hydroxy and a minor N-hydroxy metabolite were detected for up to 48 h. For samples collected between 2 and 8 h after administration, the concentration of total carprofen ranged between 200 and 490 ng ml(-1). The major metabolite, alpha-hydroxycarprofen was detected for over 72 h and therefore can also be used as a marker for the forensic screening of carprofen in greyhound urine.
