Background: Previous studies suggest gliclazide is metabolised primarily by CYP2C19 rather than CYP2C9, unlike other sulphonylureas. and polymorphisms are more common in Asians.

Methods: We investigated the effect of CYP2C19 polymorphisms on gliclazide pharmacokinetics in 15 healthy male Chinese subjects after a single 80mg oral dose.

Results: In poor metabolisers (, n=4), plasma area-under-the-curve was higher by nearly two-fold compared with intermediate metabolisers ( and heterozygotes, n=7) and extensive metabolisers (, n=4) (p<0.001). Apparent oral clearance was mean (SD) 0.70 (0.12), 1.22 (0.22) and 1.52 (0.47) mL/min/kg in poor, intermediate and extensive metabolisers, respectively (p = 0.005).

Conclusion: polymorphism is associated with increased total gliclazide concentration and reduced oral clearance. Pharmacogenetic studies are warranted on the impact of CYP2C19 polymorphisms on treatment response and hypoglycaemia.

Antimicrobials in Eisenia fetida earthworms: A comprehensive study from method development to the assessment of uptake and degradation.

Sci Total Environ

April 2024

Department of Analytical Chemistry, Faculty of Science and Technology, University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), Leioa, Basque Country, Spain; Research Centre for Experimental Marine Biology and Biotechnology (PIE), University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), Plentzia, Basque Country, Spain.

In this work, an accurate analytical method was developed for the simultaneous analysis of twenty-seven antimicrobials (AMs) in earthworms using liquid chromatography coupled to a triple quadrupole mass spectrometry detector (UHPLC-MS/MS). Adequate apparent recoveries (80-120 %) and limits of quantification (LOQ) (1 μg·kg - 10 μg·kg) were obtained, with the exception of norfloxacin (34 μg·kg). The method was applied to evaluate the accumulation of sulfamethazine (SMZ) and tetracycline (TC) in earthworms after performing OECD-207 toxicity test, in which Eisenia fetida (E.

Novel glucosinolate metabolism in larvae of the leaf beetle Phaedon cochleariae.

Insect Biochem Mol Biol

September 2020

Department of Chemical Ecology, Bielefeld University, Universitätsstr. 25, 33615, Bielefeld, Germany. Electronic address:

Plants of the Brassicales are defended by a binary system, in which glucosinolates are degraded by myrosinases, forming toxic breakdown products such as isothiocyanates and nitriles. Various detoxification pathways and avoidance strategies have been found that allow different herbivorous insect taxa to deal with the glucosinolate-myrosinase system of their host plants. Here, we investigated how larvae of the leaf beetle species Phaedon cochleariae (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), a feeding specialist on Brassicaceae, cope with this binary defence.

Background And Purpose: We previously demonstrated that paracetamol has to be metabolised in the brain by fatty acid amide hydrolase enzyme into AM404 (N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z-eicosatetraenamide) to activate CB receptors and TRPV1 channels, which mediate its analgesic effect. However, the brain mechanisms supporting paracetamol-induced analgesia remain unknown.

Experimental Approach: The effects of paracetamol on brain function in Sprague-Dawley rats were determined by functional MRI.

Purpose: Identifying factors involved in the development of drug resistant epilepsy (DRE) remains a challenge. Candidate gene studies have shown modulation of resistance to drugs by various multidrug resistance proteins in DRE. However the resistance to drugs in DRE could be more complex and multifactorial involving molecules in different pharmacokinetic processes.
