Using gas chromatography/electron impact-mass spectrometry (GC/EI-MS) and high performance liquid chromatography with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/APCI-MS/MS), the structures of cyclofenil metabolites in human urine have been assigned. The hydroxyl metabolites liberated from the glucuronide conjugates after acid hydrolysis were characterized as the trimethylsilyl (O-TMS) derivatives using GC/MS. The conjugate glucuronide forms were detected without hydrolysis by HPLC/MS. Cyclofenil was not observed in urine. Tentative structures for the two metabolites are proposed.

Background: Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is an arachidonic acid metabolite that plays an important role in cell proliferation, migration and neoangiogenesis, but whether it is involved in the progression of prostate cancer remains undiscovered.
Methods: Clinical prostate specimens were investigated with immunohistochemistry method and in vitro cell experiments referred to MTS cell proliferation assay, invasion and migration experiment, quantitative real-time RT-PCR assay, western blotting analysis and ELISA assay.
Results: Platelet-activating factor synthetase, lyso-PAF acetyl transferase (LPCAT1), increased significantly in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) specimens and CRPC PC-3 cells than that in controls.
Synthesis and identification of hydroxylated metabolites of the anti-estrogenic agent cyclofenil.
J Mass Spectrom
July 2008
Institute of Applied Synthetic Chemistry, Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria.
The detection of metabolites of the anti-estrogenic substance cyclofenil, listed on the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Prohibited List since 2004 is described. Target substances are hydroxylated metabolites, bearing an aliphatic hydroxyl group either in the 2-, 3- or 4-position of the aliphatic ring, in addition to the phenolic functions on the aromatic rings. Structural identification used NMR as well as high-resolution mass spectrometry after nano-electrospray ionisation (ESI).

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by an excessive accumulation of collagen in skin and internal organs and increased serum concentrations of different connective tissue metabolites have been reported. In this study of 82 patients with SSc, serum concentrations of aminoterminal type III procollagen peptide (PIIINP), smaller PIIINP-related antigens (Fab PIIINP) and hyaluronan (HA) were increased as compared to healthy controls matched for age and sex. Patients with a shorter disease duration (less than 3 years) had higher serum levels of PIIINP and Fab PIIINP than patients with a longer disease duration.

Eur J Clin Pharmacol
February 1981
Cyclofenil was given as a single oral dose of 200 mg, and also as 200 mg/day for eight days, to seven healthy female volunteers. Plasma was analyzed for the active metabolite and pharmacokinetic modelling was performed. A biological half life of 29 h was bound after the single dose and 18 h after the eighth day of continuous treatment.
