Abstract
The design, synthesis, and evaluation of a liposaccharide (11) for use as an agent to enhance the gastrointestinal absorption of charged, hydrophilic drugs with poor membrane permeability is reported. 11 was designed to possess both surfactant and ion-pairing properties and was conveniently synthesized from d-glucuronic acid (2) and N-Boc-lipoamino acid (5) precursors in eight steps in good yield. Isothermal titration microcalorimetry was used to determine the critical micelle concentration of 11 (in PBS) to be 2.09 +/- 0.01 mM with an enthalpy of demicellization of 4.91 +/- 0.11 kJ/mol. The ability of 11 to enhance the gastrointestinal absorption of the aminoglycoside antibiotic gentamicin (1), a hydrophilic polycation with negligible oral bioavailability, was assessed in vivo using rats. Rats dosed orally with a mixture of 11 (100 mg/kg) and 1 (60 mg/kg) had a statistically significant (P < or = 0.034) increase in Cmax, AUC120, and percent absolute bioavailability (F) compared to control 1 (60 mg/kg) alone. The highest bioavailability (F = 9.1 +/- 2.0%) was achieved by dosing with the mixture 11 (100 mg/kg) and 1 (15 mg/kg). This represents a 6-fold increase in bioavailability compared to the control (F = 1.4 +/- 0.3%). These results suggest that the molar ratio of 1:11 may be critical in optimizing the delivery system, a finding ascribed in part to the ion-pairing properties of 11. The effect of 11 on the gastrointestinal mucosa was assessed using light microscopy to examine tissue samples from rats used in the pharmacokinetic study. No morphological changes were found in either the esophagi or duodena of the rats examined. One rat dosed with 11 (100 mg/kg) and 1 (60 mg/kg) exhibited slight gastric erosion, which could be attributed to 11.

Abstract
Cardiotoxicity represents the major side-effect limiting the clinical use of anthracyclines, especially doxorubicin, in cancer chemotherapy. The use of non-toxic prodrugs, or of liposome-encapsulated drugs, allows a better targeting of the tumours and may, therefore, improve the tolerance to the treatment. Using the model of isolated perfused rat heart, we have evaluated the cardiotoxicity of a novel prodrug of doxorubicin, HMR-1826, which consists of the association of doxorubicin to glucuronic acid. We have compared the cardiac effects (developed pressure, contractility and relaxation of the left ventricle) induced by HMR-1826 to those induced by doxorubicin and Doxil, a liposomal form of doxorubicin. HMR-1826 was administered intravenously every other day for 11 days at doses of 50-200 mg kg(-1) per injection while doxorubicin was administered according to the same protocol at doses of 1-3 mg kg(-1) per injection. Doxorubicin strongly decreased the cardiac functional parameters at the doses of 2.5 and 3 mg kg(-1) per injection. Doxil (3 mg kg(-1) and HMR-1826 (50-150 mg kg(-1)) were largely devoid of cardiotoxicity. HMR-1826 only induced significant alterations of the cardiac function at the highest dose used (200 mg kg(-1) per injection). These alterations were much lower than those of doxorubicin at 2.5 mg kg(-1) per injection, despite similar general toxicity symptoms (weight loss, nose bleeding and diarrhoea) at these respective doses. Thus, HMR-1826 appeared about 100-fold less cardiotoxic than doxorubicin.

Abstract
4-(Methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol (NNAL), a major metabolite of the tobacco-specific pulmonary carcinogen 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK), has a chiral center but the tumorigenicity of the NNAL enantiomers has not been previously examined. In this study, we assessed the relative tumorigenic activities in the A/J mouse of NNK, racemic NNAL, (R)-NNAL, (S)-NNAL and several NNAL metabolites, including [4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)but-(S)-1-yl] beta-O-D-gluco-siduronic acid [(S)-NNAL-Gluc], 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl N-oxide)-1-butanol, 5-(3-pyridyl)-2-hydroxytetrahydrofuran, 4-(3-pyridyl)butane-1,4-diol and 2-(3-pyridyl) tetrahydrofuran. We also quantified urinary metabolites of racemic NNAL and its enantiomers and investigated their metabolism with A/J mouse liver and lung microsomes. Groups of female A/J mice were given a single i.p. injection of 20 micromol of each compound and killed 16 weeks later. Based on lung tumor multiplicity, (R)-NNAL (25.6 +/- 7.5 lung tumors/mouse) was as tumorigenic as NNK (25.3 +/- 9.8) and significantly more tumorigenic than racemic NNAL (12.1 +/- 5.6) or (S)-NNAL (8.2 +/- 3.3) (P < 0. 0001). None of the NNAL metabolites was tumorigenic. The major urinary metabolites of racemic NNAL and the NNAL enantiomers were 4-hydroxy-4-(3-pyridyl)butanoic acid (hydroxy acid), NNAL-N-oxide and NNAL-Gluc, in addition to unchanged NNAL. Treatment with (R)-NNAL or (S)-NNAL gave predominantly (R)-hydroxy acid or (S)-hydroxy acid, respectively, as urinary metabolites. While treatment of mice with racemic or (S)-NNAL resulted in urinary excretion of (S)-NNAL-Gluc, treatment with (R)-NNAL gave both (R)-NNAL-Gluc and (S)-NNAL-Gluc in urine, apparently through the metabolic intermediacy of NNK. (S)-NNAL appeared to be a better substrate for glucuronidation than (R)-NNAL in the A/J mouse. Mouse liver and lung microsomes converted NNAL to products of alpha-hydroxylation, to NNAL-N-oxide, to adenosine dinucleotide phosphate adducts and to NNK. In lung microsomes, metabolic activation by alpha-hydroxylation of (R)-NNAL was significantly greater than that of (S)-NNAL. The results of this study provide a metabolic basis for the higher tumorigenicity of (R)-NNAL than (S)-NNAL in A/J mouse lung, namely preferential metabolic activation of (R)-NNAL in lung and preferential glucuronidation of (S)-NNAL.

Abstract
The protective effects of oleanolic acid-type saponins and their derivatives on in vitro immunological liver injury of primary cultured rat hepatocytes were studied. A known antihepatotoxic saponin (chikusetsusaponin IVa, 1) showed hepatoprotective activity in this model. Although a rhamnosyl derivative (2) of 1 similarly showed hepatoprotective activity, its prosapogenin (5) did not show any hepatoprotective activity. On the contrary, 5 exhibited cytotoxicity toward liver cells. In the absence of antiserum, monodesmosyl saponins showed hepatotoxicity, while the bisdesmosyl saponins except for 1, did not show such hepatotoxicity. In order to clarify the effects of the sugar residues at C-3 and C-28 responsible for hepatoprotective and hepatotoxic actions, oleanolic acid 3-O-glucuronide (2a) and oleanolic acid 28-O-glucoside (2b) were prepared and tested. 2b showed neither hepatoprotective action nor hepatotoxicity. In contrast, 2a was effective at 90 microM on hepatoprotection, although it showed strong hepatotoxicity. Oleanolic acid (2c) itself showed both hepatoprotective action and weak hepatotoxicity. Therefore, the hepatoprotective activity of these types of saponins could represent a balance between hepatoprotective action and hepatotoxicity.

Abstract
An analytical procedure was developed that enables routine analysis of four estrogenic hormones in concentrations below 1 ng/l in surface water and waste water. The recovery was 88-98% with a limit of detection of 0.1-2.4 ng/l depending on the compound and the matrix measured. This method was used to determine the occurrence of 17 beta-estradiol, 17 alpha-estradiol, estrone and 17 alpha-ethinylestradiol in the aquatic environment in The Netherlands. The data show that estrogenic hormones can be detected at low concentrations (up to 6 ng/l) at some locations in surface water. In selected effluents of waste water treatment plants estrone and 17 beta-estradiol were detected in concentrations in the ng/l range. Concentrations of 17 alpha-estradiol and the contraceptive 17 alpha-ethinylestradiol were in most of these samples below the limit of detection. Hormone glucuronides were not detected in most surface water and effluents.

Abstract
Glucuronides formed from carboxylate-containing xenobiotics are more chemically reactive than most Phase II conjugates. However, while they have been shown to form protein adducts, their reactions with DNA have received little attention. We thus used the M13 forward mutational assay to assess the genotoxicity of acyl glucuronides formed from two widely used fibrate hypolipidemics, clofibric acid and gemfibrozil. Single-stranded M13mp19 bacteriophage DNA was incubated in pH 7.4 buffer for 16 h in the presence of 0, 1, 2.5, and 5 mM concentrations of each glucuronide as well as the respective aglycones. The modified DNA was then transfected into SOS-induced competent Escherichia coli JM105 cells and the transfection efficiency was determined after phage growth overnight at 37 degrees C. Significantly, both acyl glucuronides, but not the aglycones, caused a concentration-dependent decrease in the transfection efficiency of the DNA, with a greater than 80% decrease in phage survival produced by the 5 mM concentrations of the glucuronides. No increase in lacZa mutations accompanied the loss of phage survival. We propose that these genotoxic effects involve reactions with nucleophilic centers in DNA via a Schiff base mechanism that is analogous to the glycosylation of DNA by endogenous sugars. Since strand nicking is known to accompany such damage, we also analyzed glucuronide-treated pSP189 plasmids for strand breakages via agarose gel electrophoresis. Both clofibric acid and gemfibrozil glucuronides produced significant concentration-related strand nicking and exhibited over 10-fold greater reactivity than the endogenous glycosylating agent, glucose 6-phosphate. On the basis of these findings, the possibility that this novel bioactivation route participates in the carcinogenicity of the fibrate hypolipidemics deserves investigation.

Abstract
In summary, the data suggest that E217G is transported by both MOAT and P-glycoprotein into bile, but that P-glycoprotein serves as the target site for cholestasis. We postulate that this target site may be accessed from either the intracellular compartment or the canaliculus, and that MOAT serves as the major delivery route for E217G to the canaliculus. At low, physiologic concentrations of E217G, MOAT-mediated excretion into bile is a detoxification mechanism, serving to prevent intracellular accumulation of a toxic metabolite. However, following administration of high, cholestatic doses, MOAT-mediated excretion into bile results in very high concentrations in bile, on the other of 2-3 mM (see Fig. 4). It is likely that the hydrophobic nature of E217G allows it to partition from bile into the canalicular membrane, from which it can access P-glycoprotein and thus induce cholestasis. Much work is still needed to validate this model of E217G cholestasis. Definitive evidence of P-glycoprotein-mediated transport of E217G must be obtained in cell lines transfected with P-glycoprotein where MRP is absent. More importantly, the mechanism by which interaction of E217G with P-glycoprotein influences bile flow is unknown. Higgins and colleagues have provided evidence that P-glycoprotein regulates a Cl- channel in a manner analogous to that of CFTR, the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator. While Cl- channels have been shown to be important in the regulation of the volume of the hepatocyte in the presence of altered osmotic conditions, a role for this channel in bile flow has not been demonstrated. Nevertheless, these studies implicate a role of P-glycoprotein in the regulation of bile secretion by the liver.

Abstract
We have tested a new type of immunoliposomes which may effectively mediate the targeting of enzymes to be used for site-specific prodrug activation (immuno-enzymosomes). The enzyme beta-glucuronidase, capable of activating the prodrug epirubicin-glucuronide (epi-glu), was coupled to the external surface of immunoliposomes directed towards ovarian cancer cells. A significant increase in cytotoxicity of the prodrug epi-glu was shown when the in vitro cultured cancer cells were pretreated with these immuno-enzymosomes.

Abstract
Proliferative endosteal lesions were observed in metaphysis and diaphysis of femur and sternebra of Wistar (CRL:[WI]BR) rats administered 3 chemically-distinct anticancer compounds with dissimilar mechanisms of action: trimetrexate glucuronate, an antifolate; pentostatin, an adenosine deaminase inhibitor; and CI-980, a mitotic inhibitor. Islands of woven bone, often circumscribed by conspicuous myelostromal proliferation, were seen on Days 8-28 in rats given trimetrexate glucuronate daily by gavage, and on Day 4 but not Day 29 in rats given a single intravenous dose of pentostatin. Intravenous administration of CI-980 for 1 or 5 days resulted in marrow necrosis, marked centripetal new bone formation, and myelostromal proliferation on Days 4 and 8, respectively. These lesions were not present at the termination of these latter studies (Days 29 and 35, respectively). In conclusion, anticancer compounds induced local bone marrow injury and the release of local inflammatory mediators which may have provided the stimulus for bone formation and myelostromal proliferation.

Abstract
The review will encompass the following points: A brief introduction to the role of the gut flora in the toxicology of ingested food components, contaminants, and additives, including known pathways of activation and detoxication of foreign compounds and the implication of the flora in enterohepatic circulation of xenobiotics. The advantages and disadvantages of the various methods of studying the gut flora (classical bacteriological techniques, metabolic and enzymological methods) will be critically discussed with special reference to their relevance to dietary, toxicological, and biochemical studies. Sources of nutrients available to the gut flora will be described including host products (mucus, sloughed mucosal cells, hormones, proteins) and exogenous nutrients derived from diet. An account of the problems involved in studies of dietary modification with special reference to the use of stock laboratory animal diets, purified diets, and human dietary studies. The influence of dietary modification on the flora will be assessed on the basis of changes in numbers and types of bacteria and their metabolic activity, drawing on data from human and animal studies. The effects of manipulation of the quantity and quality of protein, fat, and indigestible residues (fiber) of the diet will be described together with their possible implications for toxicity of ingested compounds.

Abstract
In summary, we have shown that steroid D-ring, but not steroid A-ring, glucuronide conjugates act at the level of the bile canaliculus to decrease bile-acid-dependent flow, initially; and subsequently, bile-acid-independent flow. These data indicate that glucuronide conjugates are not necessarily inactive; the present glucuronides clearly possess toxicological activity. The cholestatic glucuronides are all natural, endogenously formed products of metabolism. The critical questions which remain are whether metabolism of steroids to D-ring glucuronides is an obligatory step in the etiology of steroid-induced cholestasis and whether these glucuronides, at concentrations attained in humans, are capable of decreasing hepatic excretory function and inducing morphological and biochemical changes of clinical importance.

Abstract
The glucuronic acid conjugate of N-hydroxy-4-aminobiphenyl was tested for carcinogenicity using a heterotopically transplanted rat urinary bladder (HTB) diverted from urine flow. A low-grade transitional cell carcinoma developed in 1 of 16 HTB and sarcoma surrounding the Ommaya reservoir connected to HTB in 8 of 16 rats. This unexpected high incidence of sarcomas, not previously observed in HTB-carcinogenesis model, suggested that the glucuronide conjugate of N-hydroxy-4-aminobiphenyl is a locally active carcinogen to mesenchymal cells.

Abstract
Estradiol-17 beta-D-glucuronide induced an immediate, profound and reversible inhibition of bile flow after its i.v. administration in the rat. The degree of cholestasis was dose-dependent in the range of 8.5 to 21 mumol/kg i.v. A dose of 11 mumol/kg i.v. inhibited bile flow and bile acid secretory rate 65 to 70% within 15 to 30 min of its administration; bile flow and bile acid secretion had returned to near control values within 3 hr. Linear regression analysis of the relationship between bile flow and bile acid secretion indicated a substantial decrease in bile acid independent flow. In contrast, neither estradiol-17 beta, estradiol-3-glucuronide nor estradiol-3-sulfate-17 beta-D-glucuronide at an equimolar dose had any inhibitory effect on these parameters. After a dose of [3H]estradiol-17 beta-D-glucuronide, 79% of the administered radioactivity was excreted in the bile in 3 hr. Estradiol-3-sulfate-17 beta-D-glucuronide was tentatively identified as the predominant biliary metabolite with estradiol-17 beta-D-glucuronide also present in substantial amounts. These data indicate that estradiol-17 beta-D-glucuronide is toxicologically active and suggest the possibility that this estrogen metabolite may induce hepatic pathology in vivo.

Abstract
Glucuronyl- and sulfotransferases inactivate a wide variety of hazardous compounds, for example, phenols and dihydrodiols generated during the metabolism of polycyclic hydrocarbons. Our understanding of the firmly membrane-bound glucuronyltransferase is complicated because of their marked activation by membrane perturbants in vitro. Membrane perturbation also occurs in vivo, for example in liver injury caused by CCl4. Moreover, glucuronyltransferases are inducible by xenobiotics. Phenobarbital and 3-methylcholanthrene probably stimulate separate glucuronyltransferases. Sulfotransferases, located in the cytoplasm, often compete with glucuronyltransferases for the same substrates. The generation of 'active sulfate' (PAPS) from cysteine is more likely to be depleted in vivo than the formation of UDP-glucuronic acid generated from carbohydrates. Hence the proportion of sulfate ester/glucuronide may fall with increasing dose of the substrate. Sulfate esters and glucuronides of certain N-hydroxy-arylamines (N-hydroxy-N-acetylaminofluorene, N-hydroxy-phenacetin) are more reactive than the parent compound and bind covalently to cell constituents. Of the two conjugates, sulfate esters are more reactive and thereby more toxic than the corresponding glucuronides. Glucuronides may become toxic in the kidney and bladder where they are highly concentrated.
