1. A novel method utilizing an internal standard in hepatocytes incubations has been developed and demonstrated to decrease the variability in the determination of intrinsic clearance (CL) in this system. The reduced variability was shown to allow differentiation of lower elimination rate constants from noise.

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) isoform has a critical role in the development of pain. Inhibition of COX-2 in vitro serves as a biomarker for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The NSAID concentrations yielding 80% COX-2 inhibition (IC) correlate with therapeutic doses to achieve analgesia across multiple COX-2 inhibitors.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to explore non-steroid anti-inflammation drugs (NSAIDs) potency for pelvic floor muscle pain by measuring local concentration in a rat model.
Materials And Methods: We used nine NSAIDs, including nabumetone, naproxen, ibuprofen, meloxicam, piroxicam, diclofenac potassium, etodolac, indomethacin, and sulindac, and 9 groups of female Wister rats. Each group of rats was fed with one kind of NSAID (2 mg/mL) for three consecutive days.

Acyl glucuronides are potentially reactive intermediates, which not only undergo hydrolysis and intramolecular acyl migration, but also bind irreversibly to plasma protein in vitro and in vivo. To evaluate the impact of renal failure, liver dysfunction and other disease states on the pharmacokinetics of acyl glucuronides and their parent compounds, a pharmacokinetic model has been established. The model has been successfully utilized to predict the pharmacokinetics of six compounds, diflunisal (DF), valproic acid (VPA), zomepirac (Z), suprofen (S), R-etodolac (R-ET), S-etodolac (S-ET), and their acyl glucuronides in various simulated disease states in experimental animals.

This study was designed to evaluate the enterohepatic circulation of racemic etodolac in rats. Additionally, the effect of hepatic and renal failure on the pharmacokinetics was estimated. The biliary excretion and the reabsorption of the drug excreted in bile were examined in order to clarify the effect of enterohepatic circulation on the disposition, and a pharmacokinetics model was applied to describe the enterohepatic circulation.
