Abstract
Although inhalation therapy represents a promising drug delivery route for the treatment of respiratory diseases, the real-time evaluation of lung drug deposition remains an area yet to be fully explored. To evaluate the utility of the photo reflection method (PRM) as a real-time non-invasive monitoring of pulmonary drug delivery, the relationship between particle emission signals measured by the PRM and in vitro inhalation performance was evaluated in this study. Symbicort® Turbuhaler® was used as a model dry powder inhaler. In vitro aerodynamic particle deposition was evaluated using a twin-stage liquid impinger (TSLI). Four different inhalation patterns were defined based on the slope of increased flow rate (4.9-9.8 L/s2) and peak flow rate (30 L/min and 60 L/min). The inhalation flow rate and particle emission profile were measured using an inhalation flow meter and a PRM drug release detector, respectively. The inhalation performance was characterized by output efficiency (OE, %) and stage 2 deposition of TSLI (an index of the deagglomerating efficiency, St2, %). The OE × St2 is defined as the amount delivered to the lungs. The particle emissions generated by four different inhalation patterns were completed within 0.4 s after the start of inhalation, and were observed as a sharper and larger peak under conditions of a higher flow increase rate. These were significantly correlated between the OE or OE × St2 and the photo reflection signal (p < 0.001). The particle emission signal by PRM could be a useful non-invasive real-time monitoring tool for dry powder inhalers.

Abstract
Tramadol is metabolized by CYP2D6 to an active metabolite, which in turn acts as an analgesic. This study aimed to investigate the impact of CYP2D6 genotype on the analgesic effect of tramadol in clinical practice. A retrospective cohort study was performed in patients treated with tramadol for postoperative pain after arthroscopic surgery for rotator cuff injury during April 2017-March 2019. The impact of CYP2D6 genotypes on the analgesic effects was assessed by the numeric rating scale (NRS) pain scoring and analyzed by the Mann-Whitney U test. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was performed to identify predictive factors for the area under the time-NRS curve (NRS-AUC), which was calculated using the linear trapezoidal method. Among the 85 enrolled Japanese patients, the number of phenotypes with CYP2D6 normal metabolizer (NM) and intermediate metabolizer (IM) was n = 69 (81.1%) and n = 16 (18.9%), respectively. The NRS and NRS-AUC in the IM group were significantly higher than those in the NM group until Day 7 (p < 0.05). The multiple linear regression analysis indicated that the CYP2D6 polymorphism was a prediction factor of the high NRS-AUC levels in Days 0-7 (β = 9.52, 95% CI 1.30-17.7). In IM patients, the analgesic effect of tramadol was significantly reduced one week after orthopedic surgery in clinical practice. Therefore, dose escalation of tramadol or the use of alternative analgesic medications can be recommended for IM patients.

Abstract
Copper is one of the essential trace elements in humans, and its deficiency causes various diseases. Zinc acetate dihydrate is administered to treat hypozincemia in preterm infants; however, zinc inhibits the gastrointestinal absorption of copper, which may cause copper deficiency. To safely treat hypozincemia in preterm infants, we retrospectively analyzed the factors reducing serum copper concentrations when zinc is administered to preterm infants with hypozincemia. Seventy preterm infants were included in the present study. Serum zinc and copper concentrations, doses, and other clinical characteristics were retrieved from electronic medical records. The administration of zinc acetate dihydrate decreased serum copper concentrations in 21 out of 70 patients. In comparisons between the two groups with and without a decrease in serum copper concentrations, significant differences were observed in postmenstrual age (34.9 and 35.9 weeks, respectively) and serum zinc concentrations (62.0 and 58.0 μg/dL, respectively) at the start of the zinc acetate dihydrate treatment. A logistic regression analysis identified postmenstrual age as a significant factor decreasing serum copper concentrations. In the ROC curve, the cut-off value for postmenstrual age for a decrease in serum copper concentrations was 34.143 weeks. The present results suggest that when zinc acetate dihydrate is administered to preterm infants with a low postmenstrual age who are at higher risk of decreased serum copper concentrations, particularly to those with a postmenstrual age <34 weeks, it is important to consider copper deficiency and periodically measure serum copper concentrations.

Abstract
Background Zinc is an essential trace element involved in various physiological functions. In Japan, zinc acetate dihydrate is administered to neonates and infants with hypozincemia. Since serum copper concentrations are reduced by the administration of zinc, we retrospectively investigated changes in serum zinc and copper concentrations in preterm infants with hypozincemia receiving zinc acetate dihydrate. Methods Sixty-three preterm infants were included in the present study. Serum zinc and copper concentrations, doses, and other clinical characteristics were retrieved from electronic medical records. Results The medians and interquartile ranges of the dosage and duration of zinc acetate dihydrate were 2.1 (1.8–2.5) mg/kg/day and 12.0 (10.0–13.0) days, respectively. Its administration increased serum zinc concentrations in 39 patients (61.9%) and to more than 70 μg/dL in 16 patients (25.4%). The group with a serum zinc concentration of 70 μg/dL or higher after administration had a significantly higher zinc dose of 2.5 mg/kg/day than the group with a serum zinc concentration of less than 70 μg/dL. Serum copper concentrations did not decrease in 44 patients (69.8%). In the group with a decreased serum copper concentration, postmenstrual age and body weight were significantly lower, while serum zinc concentrations were significantly higher at the start of administration. Conclusion The present results showed that when zinc acetate dihydrate was administered to preterm infants with hypozincemia, it was possible to increase serum zinc concentrations without decreasing serum copper concentrations in many cases. However, caution may be required when administering zinc to preterm infants with a lower postmenstrual age or milder hypozincemia because serum copper concentrations may decrease.

Abstract
Purpose This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics of intravitreal vancomycin and ceftazidime in the aqueous humor of macaque eyes filled with silicone oil in the vitreous cavity. Methods Intravitreal vancomycin (1 mg/0.1 mL) and ceftazidime (2 mg/0.1 mL) were injected into four normal macaque eyes, four vitrectomized aphakic macaque eyes, and four previously vitrectomized aphakic macaque eyes filled with silicone oil (silicone oil-filled eyes). Aqueous humor samples (0.1 mL) were obtained just before injection and at 2 and 5 hours and 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, and 10 days after injection. In each group, corneal endothelial cell density (ECD) measurements and electroretinogram (ERG) recordings were obtained before injection and after 1 month. Results The half-lives of vancomycin in the aqueous humor of normal, vitrectomized, and silicone oil-filled eyes were 29.4, 21.1, and 6.8 hours, respectively, and those of ceftazidime were 20.4, 5.2, and 3.1 hours, respectively. The maximum vancomycin aqueous humor concentrations of normal, vitrectomized, and silicone oil-filled eyes were 151.4, 205.6, and 543.5 µg/mL, respectively, and the maximum ceftazidime aqueous humor concentrations are 64.6, 260.0, and 1176.3 µg/mL, respectively. There was no change in ECD, and ERG was not declined after intravitreal injection in all groups. Conclusions The half-lives of vancomycin and ceftazidime in the aqueous humor were shorter in silicone oil-filled eyes than in normal and vitrectomized eyes. High antibiotic concentrations in silicone oil-filled eyes seemed to be well tolerated. Translational Relevance This study aids in estimating how often an antibiotic should be intravitreally injected for endophthalmitis of silicone oil-filled eyes.

Abstract
It is well known that correct use of inhalers plays a critical role in optimal inhalation therapy, but the impact of incorrect inhaler use on pulmonary drug delivery has not been quantitatively evaluated. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of holding inhalers at incorrect angles during the drug-loading step while using Turbuhaler® and to quantify the influence of the inhaler angle on in vitro pulmonary delivery. Thirty patients prescribed Turbuhaler® at Shiga University of Medical Science Hospital were enrolled. During inhalation, the participants' inhalation techniques were assessed by clinical pharmacists. Additionally, the influence of the inhaler angle on pulmonary delivery of budesonide via Symbicort® Turbuhaler® was investigated using a Twin-Stage Liquid Impinger. Output efficiency (OE), stage 2 deposition (St2), and OE × St2 were calculated. An incorrect angle during the drug-loading step was observed in 33.3% of the participants. In vitro testing demonstrated that OE, an index of the loaded dose, significantly decreased by 73.3% at an incorrect angle, while St2, an index of the deagglomerating efficiency, was stable independent of the holding angle. OE × St2, indicating the bronchial and pulmonary drug delivery amount, decreased by 76.9%. An incorrect holding angle reduced the loaded dose, resulting in decreased pulmonary delivery. Error in the inhaler angle occurs frequently and demonstrates a considerable impact on pulmonary drug delivery. Hence, it is necessary to assess the Turbuhaler® angle during inhalation.

Abstract
It has been suggested that the intelligence quotient of children born to pregnant women taking 1000 mg or more of valproic acid per day is lower than that of children born to pregnant women taking other antiepileptic drugs. However, the mechanism whereby intelligence quotient is decreased in children exposed to valproic acid during the fetal period has not yet been elucidated. Therefore, we used the human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y to evaluate the effects of antiepileptic drugs containing valproic acid on nerve cells. We assessed the anti-proliferative effects of drugs in these cells via WST-8 colorimetric assay, using the Cell Counting Kit-8. We also quantified drug effects on axonal elongation from images using ImageJ software. We also evaluated drug effects on mRNA expression levels on molecules implicated in nervous system development and folic acid uptake using real-time PCR. We observed that carbamazepine and lamotrigen were toxic to SH-SY5Y cells at concentrations >500 μM. In contrast, phenytoin and valproic acid were not toxic to these cells. Carbamazepine, lamotrigen, phenytoin, and valproic acid did not affect axonal outgrowth in SH-SY5Y cells. Sodium channel neuronal type 1a (SCN1A) mRNA expression-level ratios increased when valproic acid was supplemented to cells. The overexpression of SCN1A mRNA due to high valproic acid concentrations during the fetal period may affect neurodevelopment. However, since detailed mechanisms have not yet been elucidated, it is necessary to evaluate it by comparing cell axon elongation and SCN1A protein expression due to high-concentration valproic acid exposure.

Abstract
To achieve adequate inhalation therapy, a proper inhalation technique is needed in clinical practice. However, there is limited information on proper inhalation flow patterns of commercial inhalers. Here, we quantitatively estimated airway deposition of two commercial pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDIs) to determine their optimal inhalation patterns. Sultanol® inhaler (drug particles suspended in a propellant, suspension-pMDI) and QVAR™ (drug dissolved in a propellant with ethanol, solution-pMDI) were used as model pMDIs. Aerodynamic properties of the two pMDIs were determined using an Andersen cascade impactor with human inhalation flow simulator developed by our laboratory. As indices of peripheral-airway drug deposition, fine particle fractions (FPFPA) at different inhalation flow rates were calculated. The time-dependent particle diameters of sprayed drug particles were determined by laser diffraction. On aerodynamic testing, FPFPA of suspension-pMDI significantly decreased depending on the increasing inhalation flow rate, while solution-pMDI achieved higher and constant FPFPA in the range of the tested inhalation flow rates. The particle diameter of solution-pMDI markedly decreased from 5 to 3 μm in a time-dependent manner. Conversely, that of suspension-pMDI remained at 4 μm during the spraying time. Although "slow inhalation" is recommended for pMDIs, airway drug deposition via solution-pMDI (extra-fine particles) is independent of patients' inhalation flow pattern. Clinical studies should be performed to validate instruction for use of pMDIs for each inhaler for the optimization of inhalation therapy.

Abstract
Background Colloidal saccharated iron oxide injection is used for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia in patients with a poor oral intake. Because of the poor stability of the colloid particle, there have been concerns regarding its compatibility with various injections in clinical practice. To assess the stability of colloidal saccharated iron oxide in normal saline as a diluent, pharmaceutical stability analyses were conducted using various concentrations of glucose and sodium chloride (NaCl). Methods Colloidal saccharated iron oxide injection was diluted in three different diluents (5% glucose solution, normal saline, and 10% NaCl solution), and its appearance, colloid particle diameter, and pH were assessed. Free iron ions, which cause adverse effects, such as nausea and vomiting, were separated from the colloid particle using a dialysis membrane for 24 h, and their concentration was determined. Results No difference in the appearance, colloid diameter, and free iron ion fraction was observed after dilution in 5% glucose solution and normal saline. Conversely, an increased colloid aggregation and iron ion release were observed after dilution in 10% NaCl solution. Although iron colloid is unstable in acidic conditions (pH 4.0-6.0), normal diluents such as 5% glucose and normal saline did not cause colloid destabilization by pH change (pH > 8.0). Conclusion Normal saline may be used as a diluent of colloidal saccharated iron oxide injection as well as glucose solution, which is recommended by the pharmaceutical company. Therefore, normal saline can be used as a diluent of colloidal saccharated iron oxide injection in patients with an underlying disease, such as diabetes mellitus, who are difficult to use glucose solution as a diluent.

Abstract
With the use of stable isotopes, this study aimed to compare the bioavailability of active absorbable algal calcium (AAACa), obtained from oyster shell powder heated to a high temperature, with an additional heated seaweed component (Heated Algal Ingredient, HAI), with that of calcium carbonate. In 10 postmenopausal women volunteers aged 59 to 77 years (mean ± S.D., 67 ± 5.3), the fractional calcium absorption of AAACa and CaCO3 was measured by a dual stable isotope method. 44Ca-enriched CaCO3 and AAACa were administered in all subjects one month apart. After a fixed-menu breakfast and pre-test urine collection (Urine 0), 42Ca-enriched CaCl2 was intravenously injected, followed by oral administration of 44Ca-enriched CaCO3 without carrier 15 minutes later, and complete urine collection for the next 24 hours (Urine 24). The fractional calcium absorption was calculated as the ratio of Augmentation of 44Ca from Urine 0 to Urine 24/ augmentation of 42Ca from Urine 0 to Urine 24. Differences and changes of 44Ca and 42Ca were corrected by comparing each with 43Ca. Fractional absorption of AAACa (mean ± S.D., 23.1 ± 6.4), was distinctly and significantly higher than that of CaCO3 (14.7 ± 6.4; p = 0.0060 by paired t-test). The mean fractional absorption was approximately 1.57-times higher for AAACa than for CaCO3. The serum 25(OH) vitamin D level was low (mean ± S.D., 14.2 ± 4.95 ng/ml), as is common in this age group in Japan. Among the parameters of the bone and mineral metabolism measured, none displayed a significant correlation with the fractional absorption of CaCO3 and AAACa. Higher fractional absorption of AAACa compared with CaCO3 supports previous reports on the more beneficial effect of AAACa than CaCO3 for osteoporosis.

Abstract
Abstract
The involvement of the multidrug resistant transporter MDR1/P-glycoprotein in the penetration of haloperidol into the brain and absorption in the intestine was investigated to examine its role in inter/intra-individual variability, using the porcine kidney epithelial cell line LLC-PK1 and its MDR1-overexpressing transfectant, LLC-GA5-COL150. The inhibitory effect of haloperidol on other MDR1 substrates was also investigated in terms of the optimization of haloperidol-based pharmacotherapy. The transepithelial transport of [3H]haloperidol did not differ between the two cell lines, and vinblastine, a typical MDR1 substrate, had no effect on the transport, suggesting that haloperidol is not a substrate for MDR1, and it is unlikely that MDR function affects haloperidol absorption and brain distribution, and thereby the response to haloperidol. However, haloperidol was found to have an inhibitory effect on the MDR1-mediated transport of [3H]digoxin and [3H]vinblastine with an IC50 value of 7.84 ± 0.76 and 3.60 ± 0.64 μM, respectively, suggesting that the intestinal absorption, not distribution into the brain, of MDR1 substrate drugs could be altered by the co-administration of haloperidol in the clinical setting, although further clinical studies are needed.

Abstract
The effects of micafungin on cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) metabolic and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) transport activities were investigated and compared with those of amphotericin B and four azole antifungal drugs (ketoconazole, itraconazole, fluconazole and miconazole). The effects on the metabolic activity of CYP3A4 were examined by measuring nifedipine oxidase activity in human liver microsomes and the effects on MDR1 transport activity were evaluated using [3H]digoxin in MDR1-overexpressing LLC-GA5-COL150 cells. An inhibitory effect on CYP3A4 activity was found for ketoconazole, itraconazole and miconazole, with 50% inhibitory concentrations of 11.7, 32.6 and 74.2 nM, respectively. Fluconazole and micafungin had only slight inhibitory effects and amphotericin B had no effect. The MDR1-mediated transport of [3H]digoxin was inhibited by ketoconazole and itraconazole, and slightly by miconazole. It is suggested that micafungin and amphotericin B would be unlikely to cause drug-drug interactions by inhibition of CYP3A4 and MDR1. A positive correlation between the inhibitory effects on CYP3A4 and MDR1 activities was observed, and the physicochemical mechanisms involved and impact on clinical treatment should be studied further.

Abstract
We compared the pharmacokinetics of model compounds with different elimination processes between hypothermic and normothermic rats, to obtain basic information concerning drug therapy during hypothermia. Male Wistar rats were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital and kept at temperatures of 37 degrees C (normothermic group) by heat lamp, and 32 degrees C or 28 degrees C (hypothermic group) by external cooling. We chose phenolsulfonphthalein (PSP), indocyanine green (ICG) and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-dextran (FD-4, Mw 4400) as model compounds to determine changes in clearance pathways during hypothermia therapy. The plasma concentrations of PSP as biliary, urinary and metabolic elimination type were increased significantly in the hypothermic group (32 degrees C, 28 degrees C) after i.v. administration at a dose of 1 mg, compared to the normothermic group (37 degrees C). Each PSP clearance (bile, urine and metabolites) in the hypothermic group was decreased, suggesting an influence of hypothermia on the active elimination process. The decreasing tendency was marked at a temperature of 28 degrees C. Moreover, the plasma concentrations of ICG as the biliary excretion type after i.v. administration to the hypothermic rats at a dose of 1 mg were higher with more than 50% decrease in the total body clearance compared to normothermic rats. On the other hand, there was almost no difference in the i.v. pharmacokinetics of FD-4 as the urinary excretion type between 37 degrees C and 32 degrees C. However, renal clearance of FD-4 was significantly decreased at a temperature of 28 degrees C. Accordingly, the change in pharmacokinetics of a drug in the hypothermic group could differ with the elimination processes.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal muscle wasting disease that is characterized by muscle dystrophin deficiency. We report that intravenous (IV) infusion of an antisense oligonucleotide created an in-frame dystrophin mRNA from an out-of-frame DMD mutation (via exon skipping) which led to muscle dystrophin expression. A 10-year-old DMD patient possessing an out-of-frame, exon 20 deletion of the dystrophin gene received a 0.5 mg/kg IV infusion of an antisense 31-mer phosphorothioate oligonucleotide against the splicing enhancer sequence of exon 19. This antisense construct was administered at one-week intervals for 4 wk. No side effects attributable to infusion were observed. Exon 19 skipping appeared in a portion of the dystrophin mRNA in peripheral lymphocytes after the infusion. In a muscle biopsy one week after the final infusion, the novel in-frame mRNA lacking both exons 19 and 20 was identified and found to represent approximately 6% of the total reverse transcription PCR product. Dystrophin was identified histochemically in the sarcolemma of muscle cells after oligonucleotide treatment. These findings demonstrate that phosphorothioate oligonucleotides may be administered safely to children with DMD, and that a simple IV infusion is an effective delivery mechanism for oligonucleotides that lead to exon skipping in DMD skeletal muscles.

Abstract
PURPOSE With the growing clinical usage of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors (statins), the number of reports concerning serious drug-drug interaction has been increasing. Because recent studies have shown that conversion between acid and lactone forms occurs in the body, drug-drug interaction should be considered on both acid and lactone forms. Thus, we investigated the inhibitory effects of acid and lactone forms of eight statins, including one recently withdrawn, cerivastatin, and two recently developed, pitavastatin and rosuvastatin, on cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP3A4/5 metabolic activities and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) transporting activity. METHODS The inhibitory effects of statins on CYP metabolic activities and MDR1 transporting activity were investigated using human liver microsomes and MDR1-overexpressing LLC-GA5-COL150 cells, respectively. RESULTS The acid forms had minimal inhibitory effects on all CYP activities tested, except for fluvastatin on CYP2C9-mediated tolbutamide 4-hydroxylation (IC50 = 1.7 microM) and simvastatin on CYP3A4/5-mediated paclitaxel 3-hydroxylation (12.0 microM). Lactone forms showed no or minimal inhibitory effects on CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19 activities, except for rosuvastatin on the CYP2C9 activity (20.5 microM), whereas they showed stronger inhibitory effects on the CYP3A4/5 activity with the rank order of atorvastatin (5.6 microM), cerivastatin (8.1 microM), fluvastatin (14.9 microM), simvastatin (15.2 microM), rosuvastatin (20.7 microM), and lovastatin (24.1 microM). Pitavastatin and pravastatin had little inhibitory effect, and a similar order was found also for testosterone 6beta-hydroxylation. MDR1-mediated transport of [3H]digoxin was inhibited only by lactone forms, and the rank order correlated with that of inhibitory effects on both CYP3A4/5 activities. Inhibitory effects on MDR1 activity, and on both CYP3A4/5 activities, could be explained by the lipophilicity; however, a significant correlation was found between the lipophilicity and inhibitory effects on CYP2C8-mediated paclitaxel 6alpha-hydroxylation. CONCLUSIONS We showed the difference between the acid and lactone forms in terms of drug interaction. The lipophilicity could be one of the important factors for inhibitory effects. In the case of statins, it is important to examine the effects of both forms to understand the events found in clinical settings, including the pleiotropic effects.

Abstract
To clarify the effect of therapeutic moderate hypothermia on drug distribution, transepithelial transport via multi-drug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) (also called P-glycoprotein or ABCB1) was evaluated at various temperatures in vitro using LLC-GA5-COL150 cells, which were established by transfecting human MDR1 complementary deoxyribonucleic acid into kidney epithelial LLC-PK(1) cells and express MDR1 on the apical membrane. MDR1 is expressed in the blood-brain barrier to limit drug distribution to the brain by exporting exogenous substances including calcium blockers and antiarrhythmic drugs. Digoxin was used as a typical substrate, as well as the non-substrate tetracycline and paracellular marker inulin. MDR1-mediated transport of digoxin decreased at lower temperatures. Transport of tetracycline also decreased at lower temperatures, probably due to changes in membrane fluidity. However, no change was found at over 32 degrees C, suggesting that passive diffusion does not change during moderate hypothermia. The distribution of MDR1 substrates should be considered during hypothermic conditions, as the clinical outcome could be affected.

Abstract
A series of clinical studies on the cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) genotype and the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of three proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), omeprazole, lansoprazole and rabeprazole, have been conducted to establish the individualized pharmacotherapy based on the CYP2C19 genotyping, and in the present study, the CYP2C19 genotype-dependency was more pronounced for omeprazole than the other two. Herein, to validate further the difference among 3 PPIs in CYP2C19 genotype-dependency on the phenotype, a comparative in vitro study was conducted using the human liver microsomes and newly developed anti-human CYP antibodies. The residual concentrations of omeprazole and lansoprazole in 5 lots of human liver microsomes were dependent on the CYP2C19 activities, however, for rabeprazole, there was no correlation. The hydroxylation of omeprazole was more inhibited by anti-CYP2C19 antibody than lansoprazole, whereas anti-CYP3A4 antibody showed similar inhibition. In conclusion, the relative contribution of CYP2C19 on total metabolism of 3 PPIs elucidated herein coincided with the CYP2C19 genotype-dependent pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
The reversing effects of carvedilol and other beta-adrenoceptor antagonists on multidrug resistance (MDR) were assessed in HeLa cells and the MDR1-overexpressing derivative Hvr100-6 cells, established by stepwise increases of vinblastine concentration in the culture medium. The inhibitory effects on the transcellular transport and intracellular accumulation of [3H]vinblastine and [3H]daunorubicin were also assessed using LLC-GA5-COL150 cell monolayers, established by transfection of human MDR1 cDNA into porcine kidney epithelial LLC-PK1 cells. The cytotoxic effects of vinblastine, paclitaxel, doxorubicin and daunorubicin in Hvr100-6 were reversed 1.4- to 7.1-fold by carvedilol at the realistic clinical concentration of 1 microM, whereas other beta-adrenoceptor antagonists had weaker or no such effects. Transport experiments using LLC-GA5-COL150 cell monolayers demonstrated that this effect of carvedilol was due to the inhibition of MDR1-mediated transport of vinblastine, paclitaxel, doxorubicin and daunorubicin. These MDR1-mediated reversing effects of carvedilol were similar to those of 1 microM verapamil, suggesting that carvedilol could be a candidate modulator of MDR in clinical use. Since other beta-adrenoceptor antagonists had no inhibitory effect on transport, the effects of carvedilol were not related to beta-adrenoceptors and might have been due to antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Ointments of the skin depigmentation agent hydroquinone (HQ) have been prepared by extemporaneous nonsterile compounding in our hospital. The HQ ointments were highly effective in the treatment of various types of skin pigmentations; however, various problems have emerged including chromatic aberration of the ointments, a relatively large variability of efficacy, and mild side effects. Chromatic aberration is expected to induce non-compliance, and this may be the reason for the relatively large variability in efficacy. In this paper, the effects of various storage conditions on the chromatic aberration and HQ content of HQ ointments were evaluated, and it was suggested that the chromatic aberration was accelerated by exposure to high temperature, air and light, although these had no effect on the HQ content. In addition, various types of HQ ointments were prepared to find a formulation to minimize chromatic aberration, and it was found that the concentrations of antioxidants, Na(2)SO(3) and L(+)-ascorbic acid (AsA), seemed to be too high, and that the protective effect of AsA on chromatic aberration was mainly due to its acidifying effect.

Abstract
The multidrug transporter, MDR1-mediated interaction of digoxin with antiarrhythmic or antianginal drugs was examined in vitro by using the MDR1-overexpressing LLC-GA5-COL150 cells, which were established by transfection with human MDR1 cDNA into porcine kidney epithelial LLC-PK(1) cells. Amiodarone, its active metabolite monodesethyl-amiodarone (DEA), and quinidine markedly inhibited the basal-to-apical transport (renal secretion) of [(3)H]digoxin and increased the apical-to-basal transport (reabsorption), but cibenzoline and lidocaine showed slight inhibition of the transport, and disopyramide and mexiletin had no such effects. The IC(50) values for amiodarone, DEA and quinidine on [(3)H]digoxin transport in LLC-GA5-COL150 cells were 5.48 microM, 1.27 microM and 9.52 microM, respectively. These were comparable to, or only several times the achievable concentration in clinical use, suggesting that MDR1 could be responsible for the drug interaction between digoxin and amiodarone found in clinical reports and that DEA contributes the elevation of digoxin serum concentration. Similarly, dipyridamole altered the transport, but isosorbide showed only slight modification of the transport. The IC(50) value for dipyridamole was 40.0 microM, also only several times the achievable concentration in clinical use, indicating a risk of interaction.

Abstract
The 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor, pravastatin, was compared with simvastatin and lovastatin from the viewpoint of susceptibility to interaction with or via the multidrug transporter, MDR1 (P-glycoprotein). This was carried out using the MDR1-overexpressing cell line LLC-GA5-COL150, established by transfection of MDR1 cDNA into porcine kidney epithelial LLC-PK1 cells, and [3H]digoxin, which is a well-documented substrate for MDR1. Pravastatin, at 25-100 microM, had no effect on the transcellular transport of [3H]digoxin whereas simvastatin and lovastatin suppressed the basal-to-apical transport of [3H]digoxin and increased the apical-to-basal transport. It was suggested that recognition by MDR1 was due to the hydrophobicity. In conclusion, simvastatin and lovastatin are susceptible to interaction with or via MDR1, but pravastatin is not. This is important information when selecting the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors for patients taking drugs that are MDR1 substrates.

Abstract
The multidrug transporter MDR1 (P-glycoprotein)-mediated interaction between digoxin and 29 antihypertensive drugs of various types was examined by using the MDR1 overexpressing LLC-GA5-COL150 cells, which were established by transfecting MDR1 cDNA into porcine kidney epithelial LLC-PK1 cells. These cells construct monolayers with tight junctions, and enable the evaluation of transcellular transport. The MDR1 was highly expressed on the apical membrane (urine side). The basal-to-apical and apical-to-basal transcellular transport of [3H]digoxin in LLC-GA5-COL150 cells was time- and temperature-dependent. The basal-to-apical transport of [3H]digoxin was markedly increased, whereas the apical-to-basal transport was decreased in LLC-GA5-COL150 cells, compared with the host LLC-PK1 cells, suggesting that [3H]digoxin was a substrate for MDR1. Most of the Ca2+ channel blockers used here markedly inhibited basal-to-apical transport and increased apical-to-basal transport. Exceptions were diltiazem, nifedipine and nitrendipine, which hardly showed inhibitory effects on transcellular transport of [3H]digoxin. Alpha-blocker doxazosin and beta-blocker carvedilol also inhibited transcellular transport of [3H]digoxin, but none of the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and AT1 angiotensin II receptor antagonists used here were active. These observations will promote understanding of the digoxin-drug interactions resulting from their actions on MDR1, and which may aid in avoiding these unexpected effects of digoxin.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the MDR1 genotype frequency in the Japanese population and to study the relationship between the MDR1 genotype and the pharmacokinetics of digoxin after single oral administration in healthy subjects. METHODS The MDR1 genotype at exon 26 was determined in 114 healthy volunteers by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. The serum concentration-time profile of digoxin was examined after single oral administration at a dose of 0.25 mg. RESULTS It was found that 35.1 % (40/114) of subjects were homozygous for the wild-type allele (C/C). 52.6% (60/114) were compound heterozygotes with a mutant T-allele (C3435T) (C/T), and 12.3% (14/114) were homozygous for the mutant allele (T/T). There was no effect of gender or age on the distribution. The serum concentration of digoxin after a single oral administration increased rapidly, attaining a steady state in all subjects; however, it was lower in the subjects harboring the T-allele. AUC0-4 h values (+/-SD) were 4.11 +/- 0.57, 3.20 +/- 0.49. and 3.27 +/- 0.58 ng h/ml, respectively, with a significant difference between C/C and C/T or T/T. CONCLUSIONS The serum concentration of digoxin after single oral administration was lower in the subjects harboring a mutant allele (C3435T) at exon 26 of the MDR1 gene.

Abstract
The methodology to distinguish the patients showing considerable fluctuation of the whole blood concentration of cyclosporin A (CYA) was investigated from a viewpoint of laboratory test values. First, we retrospectively examined the CYA trough blood concentrations monitored continuously. The patients were classified into three groups by the fluctuation of CYA trough blood concentrations during the examination period (Cmax/Cmin): Group 1 (Cmax/Cmin=100-200%; n=21), Group 2 (Cmax/Cmin=200-300%; n=25), and Group 3 (Cmax/Cmin=more than 300%; n=32). In the laboratory tests examined, the serum triglyceride concentrations were considerably different among the groups, and it was the highest in Group 3. Next, to elucidate the effect of serum triglyceride concentration on the CYA blood concentration, in vivo pharmacokinetic studies after single intravenous or repetitive oral administration of CYA were conducted in the model rats with pseudo-hypertriglyceridemia, hypocythemia, and acute renal failure. Only in pseudo-hypertriglyceridemia rats, the CYA blood concentration after a single intravenous injection was significantly higher than that in normal rats because of the restriction of CYA distribution to the extravascular tissues. On the other hand, the increase in the serum triglyceride concentration did not affect the fluctuation of CYA trough blood concentration after repetitive oral administration. Taken together, the fluctuation of CYA trough blood concentrations observed in the clinical situation could be due to the fluctuation of serum triglyceride concentration, and the patients with such fluctuation of serum triglyceride concentrations might also be distinguishable by the higher concentration of serum triglyceride in laboratory tests.

Abstract
The prediction error in the Bayesian analysis program for digoxin was evaluated in Japanese patients, and factors influencing the accuracy were investigated. Serum concentrations of digoxin were monitored two times and were compared with the predicted values obtained by using the Bayesian analysis program. The prediction error at the first time was 43.1%. Although this estimation error was reasonably restored at the second time of monitoring, the prediction error remained at 26.6%. These data suggested that unknown factors not included in the program affected the serum concentration of digoxin. Retrospective research of the digoxin serum concentrations in the patients suggested the coadministration of the drugs, which were the P-glycoprotein modulators, as well as the unexpected alteration of the serum creatinine, were the important factors influencing the prediction of the drug serum concentrations. We next examined the inhibitory effect of quinidine, verapamil and spironolactone on the transcellular transport of digoxin by using human P-glycoprotein overexpressing LLC-GA5-COL150 cells. Quinidine, verapamil and spironolactone could inhibit the transcellular transport of digoxin by 50%. In addition, the reduction of the renal clearance by 50%, which could possibly be caused by this inhibition, led to the increase of 36% in the steady state through concentrations of digoxin in the physiological pharmacokinetic model. In conclusion, the prediction of long-term serum concentration-time profiles of digoxin, based on the Bayesian analysis, will be disturbed by the coadministration of the P-glycoprotein modulators and the unexpected alteration of the serum creatinine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shc is the adaptor protein that exists in three isoforms, P46, P52 and P66, and acts as a bridge between activated cell surface receptors and downstream signalling molecules which act in extracellular signal-regulated cell events such as cell cycle progression. In our previous studies, Shc was shown to be a substrate of the tyrosine kinase c-Src in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS Using green fluorescent protein-fusion Shc (GFP-Shc), we have shown that following epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation of A431 cells, all Shc isoforms were rapidly recruited from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane (within 5 min) and then redistributed to the cytoplasmic vesicle structures (in the next 10-20 min). Indirect immunofluorescent study demonstrated that all Shc isoforms co-localize with EGF receptor (EGFR) and activated c-Src in both plasma membranes and cytoplasmic vesicle structures. Our previous study has shown that EGF induces the indirect association of EGFR and c-Src and activation of c-Src in A431 cells. An immunoprecipitation study demonstrated that the EGFR-Src association and c-Src activation are augmented in cells expressing GFP-Shc P52 or P66, but not P46. In addition, P52 and P66, but not P46, are in association with EGFR-Src complex. We also found that EGFR and Shc can be dissociated from c-Src by the addition of a synthetic peptide that corresponds to the autophosphorylation site of c-Src. Interestingly, the peptide-induced dissociation of the complex was not affected by the tyrosine phosphorylation state of the peptide. CONCLUSION These results demonstrated a dynamic subcellular movement of Shc in response to EGF, and suggested a hitherto unknown scheme whereby Shc can work not only as a substrate of c-Src but also as a mediator of the EGF-induced activation of c-Src in an isoform-specific manner.

Abstract
The modifying effects of dietary exposure of the flavonoid morin on 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4-NQO)-induced tongue tumorigenesis, the activities of phase II detoxifying enzymes glutathione S-transferase (GST) and quinone reductase (QR) in liver and tongue, and cell proliferation activity in tongue were investigated in male F344 rats. At 7 weeks of age, all animals except those treated with morin alone and control group were given 4-NQO (20 ppm) in drinking water for 8 weeks to induce oral neoplasms. Starting 7 days before 4-NQO exposure, experimental groups were fed experimental diets containing morin (100 and 500 ppm) for 10 weeks ("initiation feeding"). Starting 1 week after the cessation of exposure to 4-NQO, other experimental groups given 4-NQO and a basal diet were given experimental diets for 22 weeks ("post-initiation feeding"). At week 32 week, "initiation feeding" of morin caused a significant reduction in the incidence of tongue carcinoma (by 44-100%). "Post-initiation feeding" with morin also significantly decreased the frequency of tongue carcinoma (by 44%). Morin feeding elevated liver GST and QR activities and GST activity in the anterior portion of tongue. Feeding with morin significantly lowered QR activity of the posterior part of the tongue. Dietary exposure to morin significantly decreased the proliferating cell nuclear antigen-positive index in the posterior portion. Also, morin feeding lowered tongue polyamine levels, especially in the "post-initiation feeding" group. Our results indicate that morin acts as a chemopreventive agent against tongue carcinogenesis induced by 4-NQO through modification of detoxifying enzyme activities and/or cell proliferation activities.

Abstract
The modifying effect of dietary exposure to a flavonoid morin during the initiation and post-initiation phases of azoxymethane (AOM)-initiated colorectal carcinogenesis was investigated in male F344 rats. A total of 55 animals were initiated with AOM by weekly s. c. injections of 15 mg/kg body wt for 3 weeks to induce colorectal neoplasms. Rats were fed a diet containing 500 p.p.m. morin for 5 ('initiation feeding') or 28 ('post-initiation feeding') weeks. Other groups contained rats treated with morin alone (500 p.p.m. in diet) and untreated rats. At the end of the study (32 weeks), the incidence of adenocarcinoma in the large intestine of rats initiated with AOM together with (43%) or followed by (29%) a diet containing morin was smaller than that of rats given AOM alone (75%). A significant difference was found between 'post-initiation feeding' and untreated groups (P = 0.023). Although both 'initiation feeding' and 'post-initiation feeding' of morin reduced polyamine levels in colorectal mucosa and blood, 'post-initiation feeding' of morin significantly decreased the proliferating cell nuclear antigen-positive index in aberrant crypt foci. 'Post-initiation feeding' of morin significantly elevated glutathione S-transferase and quinone reductase activities in the liver and large bowel, but 'initiation feeding' caused a significant elevation of these enzymes activities only in the large bowel. These results indicate that morin could exert a weak chemopreventive effect on large bowel tumorigenesis induced by AOM when fed during the post-initiation phase.

Abstract
The adaptor protein Shc exists in three isoforms; p46, p52, and p66, and is a key regulator of a variety of biological processes. Our previous studies have shown that the tyrosine kinase c-Src phosphorylates Shc in a phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 4,5-bisphosphate-dependent manner. Here we demonstrate that PtdIns 3,4,5-trisphosphate stimulates phosphorylation of Shc by c-Src. The phosphorylation is blocked by a glutathione S-transferase fusion protein containing Shc phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain or a phosphotyrosine-containing Shc PTB domain-binding peptide. In rat pheochromocytoma cell line PC12, nerve growth factor (NGF) stimulates tyrosine phosphorylation of both Triton-soluble and -insoluble Shc which was maximal at 2-5 min after NGF treatment. We find that pretreatment of PC12 cells with the PtdIns 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin or LY294002 results in almost half inhibition of the NGF-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of only Triton-insoluble Shc. Similar inhibitory effect is observed with tyrosine kinase inhibitors genistein and PP1. Upon NGF stimulation, c-Src also becomes tyrosine-phosphorylated and accumulates in the Triton-insoluble fraction. The c-Src events are insensitive to wortmannin but sensitive to genistein. These results suggest that coordinate action of PtdIns 3-kinase and/or PtdIns 3,4,5-trisphosphate and c-Src can function as positive regulator in tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
In our previous short-term experiment, Citrus auraptene inhibited the development of azoxymethane (AOM)-induced aberrant crypt foci, which are precursor lesions for colorectal carcinoma. In the present study, the possible inhibitory effect of dietary administration of auraptene was investigated using an animal colon carcinogenesis model with a colon carcinogen AOM. Male F344 rats were given s.c. injections of AOM (15 mg/kg body weight) once a week for 3 weeks to induce colon neoplasms. They also received diets containing 100 or 500 ppm auraptene for 4 weeks in groups of "initiation" feeding, starting 1 week before the first dosing of AOM. The diets containing auraptene were also given to rats for 38 weeks in groups of "postinitiation" feeding. At the termination of the study (38 weeks), dietary administration of auraptene caused dose-dependent inhibition in AOM-induced large bowel carcinogenesis. Auraptene feeding during the initiation phase reduced the incidence of colon adenocarcinoma by 49% at 100 ppm (P = 0.099) and 65% at 500 ppm (P = 0.0075). Auraptene administration during the postinitiation phase inhibited the incidence of colon adenocarcinoma by 58% at 100 ppm (P = 0.021) and 65% at 500 ppm (P = 0.0075). Also, the multiplicity of colon carcinoma was significantly reduced by initiation feeding at a dose level of 500 ppm (P < 0.01) and postinitiation feeding at a level of 100 and 500 ppm (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01, respectively). Feeding of auraptene suppressed the expression of cell proliferation biomarkers (ornithine decarboxylase activity and polyamine content) in the colonic mucosa and reduced the production of aldehydic lipid peroxidation [malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxy-2(E)-nonenal]. In addition, auraptene increased the activities of Phase II drug-metabolizing enzymes (glutathione S-transferase and quinone reductase) in the liver and colon. These findings suggest that the inhibitory effects of auraptene on AOM-induced colon tumorigenesis at the initiation level might be associated, in part, with increased activity of Phase II enzymes, and those at the postinitiation stage might be related to suppression of cell proliferation and lipid peroxidation in the colonic mucosa.

Abstract
The modifying effects of citrus auraptene given during the initiation and post-initiation phases of oral carcinogenesis initiated with 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4-NQO) were investigated in male F344 rats. At 6 weeks of age, animals were divided into experimental and control groups, and fed the diets containing 100 ppm or 500 ppm auraptene. At 7 weeks of age, all animals except those treated with auraptene alone and control groups were given 4-NQO (20 ppm) in the drinking water for 8 weeks to induce tongue carcinoma. Starting 7 days before the 4-NQO exposure, groups of animals were fed the diets containing auraptene (100 and 500 ppm) for 10 weeks and then switched to the basal diet. Starting 1 week after the cessation of 4-NQO exposure, the groups given 4-NQO and a basal diet were switched to the diets mixed with auraptene (100 and 500 ppm), and maintained on these diets for 22 weeks. The other groups consisted of rats fed auraptene alone (500 ppm) or untreated rats. All rats were necropsied at the termination of the study (week 32). The incidences of tongue lesions (neoplasms and preneoplasms), polyamine levels in the tongue tissue and cell proliferation activity estimated by 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)-labelling index were compared among the groups. In addition, the activities of gluthathione S-transferase (GST) and quinone reductase (QR) in liver and tongue of rats gavaged various doses of auraptene (0, 200, 400 and 800 mg/kg body wt) for 5 days were assayed. Feeding of auraptene at both doses during the initiation phase caused a significant reduction in the frequency of tongue carcinoma (100 ppm auraptene, 91% reduction, P < 0.001; 500 ppm auraptene, 63% reduction, P < 0.05). When fed auraptene after 4-NQO exposure, the frequency of tongue carcinoma was also decreased (100 ppm auraptene, 100% reduction, P < 0.001; 500 ppm auraptene, 74% reduction, P < 0.01). The incidences of tongue severe dysplasia in these groups were significantly smaller than those in carcinogen controls (P < 0.05). There were no pathological alterations in rats treated with 500 ppm auraptene alone or those in an untreated control group. Dietary administration of auraptene significantly decreased BrdU-labelling index and polyamine concentrations in the oral mucosa (P < 0.05). In addition, auraptene administration significantly increased the activities of GST and QR in the liver and tongue. Although dose-dependent effect was not found, citrus auraptene is effective in inhibiting the development of oral neoplasms induced by 4-NQO. Thus, suppression by the initiation-feeding of auraptene might relate to elevation in the phase II enzymes GST and QR of the liver and tongue, and inhibition occurring during the post-initiation might be related to suppression of increased cell proliferation caused by 4-NQO in the oral mucosa.

Abstract
In the previous study (Sato K.-I. et al. (1997) FEBS Lett. 410, 136-140), we showed that the phosphorylation of Shc protein by c-Src is dependent on the binding of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) to the PTB domain of Shc. In this study, we demonstrate that, in contrast to c-Src, v-Src and epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor can phosphorylate Shc in a PtdIns(4,5)P2-independent manner and at different phosphorylation sites. To determine the phosphorylation sites in Shc, we used mutant Shc proteins in which tyrosine residues (Y) 317 and/or 239 and 240 were replaced by phenylalanine residues (F). We found that Y317F Shc but not Y239/240F or Y239/240/317F Shc was phosphorylated by c-Src. The reaction was PtdIns(4,5)P2-dependent and inhibited by the addition of PTB domain of Shc. On the other hand, v-Src and EGF receptor were able to phosphorylate both Y317F and Y239/240F but not Y239/240/317F Shc in a PtdIns(4,5)P2-independent manner. These results highlight the difference between c-Src and v-Src or EGF receptor and suggest that c-Src can phosphorylate predominantly on Tyr239/240 of Shc only when Shc PTB domain is bound to PtdIns(4,5)P2.

Abstract
The modifying effect of dietary administration of auraptene isolated from the peel of citrus fruit (Citrus natsudaidai Hayata) on the development of azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colonic aberrant crypt foci (ACF) was investigated in rats. Male F344 rats were given s.c. injections of AOM (15 mg/kg body wt) once a week for 3 weeks to induce ACF. They also received diets containing 100 or 500 p.p.m. auraptene for 5 weeks, starting 1 week before the first dose of AOM. At termination of the study (week 5) dietary administration of auraptene caused a significant reduction in the frequency of ACF in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.05). Feeding of auraptene suppressed expression of cell proliferation biomarkers (5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine labeling-index, ornithine decarboxylase activity, polyamine content and number of silver stained nucleolar organizer region protein particles) in the colonic mucosa and the occurrence of micronuclei caused by AOM. Also, auraptene increased the activities of phase II enzymes (glutathione S-transferase and quinone reductase) in the liver and colon. These findings might suggest that inhibition of AOM-induced ACF may be associated, in part, with increased activity of phase II enzymes in the liver and colon and suppression of cell proliferation in the colonic mucosa.

Abstract
In our studies to find natural compounds with chemopreventive efficacy in foods, using azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colonic aberrant crypt foci and colonic mucosal cell proliferation as biomarkers, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, 1'-acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA), present in the edible plant Languas galanga from Thailand was found to be effective. This study was conducted to test the ability of ACA to inhibit AOM-induced colon tumorigenesis when it was fed to rats during the initiation or post-initiation phase. Male F344 rats were given three weekly s.c. injections of AOM (15 mg/kg body weight) to induce colonic neoplasms. They were fed diet containing 100 or 500 ppm ACA for 4 weeks, starting one week before the first dosing of AOM (the initiation feeding). The other groups were fed the ACA diet for 34 weeks, starting one week after the last AOM injection (the post-initiation feeding). At the termination of the study (week 38), AOM had induced 71% incidence of colonic adenocarcinoma (12/17 rats). The initiation feeding with ACA caused significant reduction in the incidence of colon carcinoma (54% inhibition by 100 ppm ACA feeding and 77% inhibition by 500 ppm ACA feeding, P = 0.03 and P = 0.001, respectively). The post-initiation feeding with ACA also suppressed the incidence of colonic carcinoma (45% inhibition by 100 ppm ACA feeding and 93% inhibition by 500 ppm ACA feeding, P = 0.06 and P = 0.00003, respectively). Such inhibition was dose-dependent and was associated with suppression of proliferation biomarkers, such as ornithine decarboxylase activity in the colonic mucosa, and blood and colonic mucosal polyamine contents. ACA also elevated the activities of phase II enzymes, glutathione S-transferase (GST) and quinone reductase (QR), in the liver and colon. These results indicate that ACA could inhibit the development of AOM-induced colon tumorigenesis through its suppression of cell proliferation in the colonic mucosa and its induction of GST and QR. The results confirm our previous finding that ACA feeding effectively suppressed the development of colonic aberrant crypt foci. These findings suggest possible chemopreventive ability of ACA against colon tumorigenesis.

Abstract
The modulating effects of dietary feeding of two flavonoids, diosmin and hesperidin, both alone and in combination, during the initiation and post-initiation phases on colon carcinogenesis initiated with azoxymethane (AOM), were investigated in male F344 rats. Animals were initiated with AOM by weekly s.c. injections of 15 mg/kg body wt for 3 weeks to induced colon neoplasms. Rats were fed the diets containing diosmin (1000 ppm), hesperidin (1000 ppm) or diosmin (900 ppm) + hesperidin (100 ppm) for 5 weeks (initiation treatment) or 28 weeks (post-initiation treatment). The others contained the groups of rats treated with diosmin, hesperidin alone or in combination, and untreated. At the end of the study (32 weeks), the incidence and multiplicity of neoplasms (adenoma and adenocarcinoma) in the large intestine of rats initiated with AOM together with, or followed by, a diet containing diosmin or hesperidin were significantly smaller than those of rats given AOM alone (P <0.001). The combination regimen during the initiation and post-initiation stages also inhibited the development of colonic neoplasms, but the tumor data did not indicate any beneficial effect of diosmin and hesperidin administered together as compared with when these agents were given individually. In addition, feeding of diosmin and hesperidin, both alone and in combination, significantly inhibited the development of aberrant crypt foci. As for cell proliferation biomarkers, dietary exposure of diosmin and hesperidin significantly decreased the 5'-bromodeoxyuridine-labeling index and argyrophilic nuclear organizer region's number in crypt cells, colonic mucosal ornithine decarboxylase activity, and polyamine levels in the blood. These results indicate that diosmin and hesperidin, both alone and in combination, act as a chemopreventive agent against colon carcinogenesis, and such effects may be partly due to suppression of cell proliferation in the colonic crypts, although precise mechanisms should be clarified.

Abstract
The modifying effects of flavonoids diosmin and hesperidin during the initiation and post-initiation phases of oesophageal carcinogenesis initiated with N-methyl-N-amylnitrosamine (MNAN) were investigated in male Wistar rats. At 7 weeks of age, all animals except those treated each test chemical alone and control groups were given weekly intraperitoneal injections of MNAN (12.5 mg/kg body weight/injection) for 12 weeks to induce oesophageal neoplasms. For examining the modifying effects of 'initiation' treatment of test compounds, groups of animals were fed the diets containing 1000 ppm diosmin and 1000 ppm hesperidin, and the diet containing both compounds (900 ppm diosmin and 100 ppm hesperidin) for 13 weeks, starting 7 days before the MNAN dosing and then switched to the basal diet. For examining the modifying effects of 'post-initiation' treatment of these compounds, the groups given MNAN and a basal diet were switched to the experimental diets containing diosmin, hesperidin or diosmin combined with hesperidin at 1 week after the stop of MNAN injection, and maintained on these diets for 7 weeks. The other groups consisted of rats given test compounds alone or untreated rats. All animals were necropsied at the termination of the study (week 20) to determine the incidences of oesophageal neoplasms and preneoplasms, blood polyamine levels, and cell proliferation activity estimated by 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)-labelling index and by morphometric analysis of silver-stained nucleolar organizer regions' protein (AgNORs). A number of oesophageal neoplasms developed in rats treated with MNAN alone (75% and 100% incidences of carcinoma and papilloma, respectively). 'Initiation' feeding of diosmin significantly decreased the incidence of squamous cell carcinoma (P < 0.05). Also, 'initiation feeding' of both compounds singly or in combination caused a significant reduction in the multiplicities of oesophageal carcinoma and papilloma (diosmin, 78 and 58% reduction; hesperidin, 70 and 50% reduction; and the combination regimen, 70 and 30% reduction, P < 0.005). 'Post-initiation' feeding slightly decreased the multiplicities of these oesophageal neoplasms. Also, these dietary regimens reduced the multiplicities of preneoplastic lesions (hyperplasia and severe dysplasia; P < 0.05). There were no pathological alterations in rats treated with both compounds alone or the combined regimen alone or those in an untreated control group. Similarly, feeding of these compounds significantly decreased the expression of cell proliferation biomarkers (BrdU-labelling index and AgNORs number) of the non-lesional oesophageal epithelium (P < 0.05). Blood polyamine concentrations were also lowered in rats given the carcinogen and test compounds, both alone and in combination, when compared with those of rats given MNAN alone (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that diosmin and hesperidin supplementation, individually or in combination, is effective in inhibiting the development of oesophageal cancer induced by MNAN when given during the initiation phase, and such inhibition might be related to suppression of increased cell proliferation caused by MNAN in the oesophageal mucosa.

Abstract
Several transmucosal therapeutic systems (TmTs) were developed to study the enhanced/controlled delivery of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) through oral mucosae for prolonged periods. TmTs is a track field-shaped bilayer mucoadhesive device consisting of fast-release and sustained-release layers. In vivo evaluations were performed in beagle dogs, and pharmacokinetic profiles were monitored to characterize the transmucosal permeation kinetics of LHRH delivered by the various TmTs formulations containing a stabilizer, cetylpyridinium chloride, and a permeation enhancer, such as bile salts, to enhance the stability and permeability of LHRH. The plasma LHRH concentrations were observed to reach the plateau level within 30 min and were maintained for 2 hr following application of TmTs, in contrast to a rapid elimination profile observed after IV administration. Addition of 5% bile salt into the fast-release layer was observed to produce an enhancement in the absorption rate, higher plateau plasma levels, and greater systemic bioavailability. Addition of pH modifiers was noted to affect the bile salt enhanced transmucosal delivery of LHRH. To prolong the plasma LHRH level, several loading doses of LHRH were incorporated into the sustained-release layer. The plasma levels were sustained and the area under the curve (AUC) values were found to be linearly dependent upon the combined loading doses of LHRH in the fast-release and sustained-release layers. Mucosal irritation was also measured, using buccal mucosa, and results were observed to be low and reversible for the single application. The results indicated that TmTs is relatively safe and capable of achieving enhanced and controlled transmucosal delivery of peptide drugs.

Abstract
Mouse lung carbonyl reductase, a member of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) family, shows a strong coenzyme preference for NADP(H) over NAD(H), and is uniquely activated by fatty acids. Previous chemical modification and X-ray crystallography studies show that interactions responsible for the coenzyme specificity include salt linkages between the 2'-phosphate of NADPH and side-chains of Lys-17 and Arg-39 of the enzyme. Although Arg-39 is highly conserved in NADP(H)-dependent enzymes of the SDR family, Lys-17 is substituted with Arg in about half of the NADP(H)-dependent enzymes. The present study shows that mutations of Lys-17 to His (K17H) or Ser (K17S) and of Arg-39 to Ala (R39A) bring about decreases (from 5 to 90-fold) of the affinities for NADP(H), but minor changes in the affinity for NAD+. The binding energy arising from the mutations on the binding of the 2'-phosphate of NADP+ was decreased by 38-66% from the value of 4.8 kcal/mol calculated for the wild-type enzyme. In contrast, the mutation of Lys-17 to Arg (K17R) had little effect on the kinetic or thermodynamic properties. The activation by fatty acids was completely attenuated by the mutations of K17H and K17S, but not by K17R or R39A. These results indicate that the 2'-phosphate group of NADP(H) is recognized by both Lys-17 and Arg-39, of which Lys-17 is a component of the binding site for the activator, probably interacting with the negatively charged carboxylate group of fatty acids, and also suggest that the existence of a positively charged residue (either Lys or Arg) at position 17 is required for both NADP(H) specificity of the SDR family enzymes and fatty acid activation of the pulmonary carbonyl reductase.
