The effect of both concomitant administration and pretreatment with isoniazid on the activity of the hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes of healthy young volunteers, as indicated by the antipyrine clearance test, is reported. Concomitant administration of isoniazid with antipyrine results in a significant decrease in the hepatic clearance of the latter compound. In contrast, pretreatment for 14 days with isoniazid had no effect on antipyrine elimination kinetics. It is concluded that isoniazid depresses hepatic drug metabolism only when present in significant amounts at the hepatic site of drug oxidation.

The sampling of study included 185 examined workers. Out of them 90 work at "Opitnii zavod Neftekhim" (67 females and 23 males) and 95--at "Kaustik" (64 females and 31 males) from various workshops of the given enterprises. To determine biochemical indicators samples of blood, saliva and urine were collected.

Starting from 4-amino-antipyrine, six new compounds were synthesized and characterized. The new compounds contain moieties with particular properties, such are ionophore (benzo-15-crown-5), fluorescent (nitrobenzofurazan), stable free radical (nitroxide), or other types of biological active residues, like nitroderivatives, antipyrine or isoniazid residues. They were fully characterized by appropriate means ((1)H and (13)C NMR, IR, UV-Vis, fluorescence, EPR, elemental analysis) and some of their biological properties were evaluated.

1. Cytochrome P450 activities in vivo and in vitro and enzyme induction by phenobarbital, beta-naphthoflavone, isoniazid and triacetyloleandomycin were investigated in the female dwarf goat. In vivo kinetics of antipyrine, sulphadimidine and caffeine were studied separately and as a combination ("cocktail').

Moreover, the low-sensitive rats were rapid acetylators and slow oxidizers, but the high-sensitive ones vice versa. The slowing down of antipyrine and isoniazide metabolism is supposed to be the most rational reaction of oxygen-dependent systems to the lack of oxygen in tissues.
