Altered bile acid and coproporphyrin-I disposition in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.

Br J Clin Pharmacol

February 2025

Division of Pharmacotherapy and Experimental Therapeutics, UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA.

Article Synopsis
  • * A study involving blood and urine samples from both ADPKD patients and healthy volunteers revealed significant increases in toxic bile acids among the ADPKD group.
  • * The results suggest that elevated bile acids and specific compounds may heighten the risk of drug-induced liver injury and drug interactions in ADPKD patients due to impaired liver transport mechanisms.

Plasma and urinary CP I and CP III concentrations in chimeric mice with human hepatocytes after rifampicin administration.

Pharmacol Res Perspect

October 2024

Pharmaceutical Research Laboratories, Toray Industries, Inc., Kamakura, Kanagawa, Japan.

The interest in transporter-mediated drug interactions has been increasing in the field of drug development. In this study, we measured the plasma and urinary concentrations of coproporphyrin (CP) I and CP III as endogenous substrates for organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP) using chimeric mice with human hepatocytes (PXB mice) and examined the influence of an OATP inhibitor, rifampicin (RIF). CP I and CP III were actively taken up intracellularly, and RIF inhibited the uptake in a concentration-dependent manner for both CP I and CP III in human hepatocytes (PXB-cells).

Porphyrinuria in Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Review.

Curr Med Chem

October 2024

Department of Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Numerous studies demonstrated that the number of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has increased remarkably in the past decade. A portion of ASD etiology, however, is attributed to environmental issues and genetic disorders. We highlighted a scoping review to principally evaluate the current information on mercury exposure in ASD children and to reveal knowledge gaps.

Background: Dubin-Johnson syndrome (DJS) presents during the neonatal period with a phenotype that overlaps with a broad list of causes of neonatal cholestasis (NC), which makes the identification of DJS challenging for clinicians. We conducted a case-controlled study to investigate the utility of urinary coproporphyrins (UCP) I% as a potential diagnostic biomarker.

Methods: We reviewed our database of 533 cases of NC and identified 28 neonates with disease-causing variants in ATP-binding cassette-subfamily C member 2 (ABCC2) gene "Cases" (Study period 2008-2019).

Organic anion transporters 1 and 3 (OAT1/3) occupy a key role in mediating renal elimination. Kynurenic acid (KYNA) was previously discovered as an effective endogenous biomarker to assess drug-drug interaction (DDI) for OAT inhibitors. Here, further in vitro and in vivo investigation was performed to characterize the elimination routes and feasibility of KYNA, along with other reported endogenous metabolites, as biomarkers of Oat1/3 inhibition in bile duct-cannulated (BDC) cynomolgus monkeys.
