C H a R a C T E R I S a T I O N O F Some M E T a B O L I C Conjugation Pathways in the Horse by Mary Varwell Marsh a Thesis Subm Characterisation of some metabolic conjugation pathways in the horse by Mary Varwell Marsh a thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London. March 1983 Department of Pharmacology, St. Mary's Hospital Medical School, London W2 IPG -2- ABSTRACT This thesis presents a study of the metabolic conjugation or Phase II reactions in the horse. There has been a paucity of systematic research on the metabolism of drugs in the horse, which is surprising in view of their widespread use in equine veterinary medicine and also their occasional use as doping substances. The approach adopted has been to investigate the in vivo metabolism of six carboxylic acids 14 ( C-labelled); the nature of the urinary metabolites was established by radiochemical and chromatographic techniques (paper and thin layer chromatography and hplc), and by NMR and mass spectrometry. The compounds administered were three carboxylic acids used as 'probes' for eliciting conjugation reactions, namely benzoic acid, phenylacetic acid and 2-naphthylacetic acid, and three non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, salicylic acid, fenclofenac and isoxepac, all of which are metabolised to conjugates in other species. The study has established the horse can utilise glycine, glucuronic acid and taurine for the -3- metabolic conjugation of these acids. This is the first time that taurine conjugation has been observed to occur in the horse. A novel pathway of metabolism was uncovered which involves the addition of a 2-carbon fragment to benzoic acid, to form 3-hydroxy 3-phenylpropionic acid, this reaction is analogous to that which occurs in the natural elongation of fatty acids. The metabolic conjugation pathways which occur in the horse, and the disposition and renal elimination of some drugs representative of the widely used anti-inflammatories have been examined. The findings are of relevance in that they provide basic information on metabolic options for carboxylic acids in the horse. Also the findings contribute to the elaboration of sound means of detecting such drugs in the context of their illicit use. -4- CONTENTS Page Abstract 2 Acknowledgements 6 List of Tables 8 List of Figures 13 Chapter One : Introduction 20 Chapter Two : General Methods 87 Chapter Three : The metabolism and disposition of salicylic acid 102 Chapter Four : The metabolism and disposition of benzoic acid 128 Chapter Five : The metabolism and disposition of phenylacetic acid 161 Chapter Six : The metabolism and disposition of 2-naphthylacetic acid 198 -4- CONTENTS, continued Page Chapter Seven : The metabolism and disposition of isoxepac 230 Chapter Eight : The metabolism and disposition of fenclofenac 257 Chapter Nine : Discussion 283 Appendices 295 References 347 -2- ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Professor R.L.

We report three cases of patients exhibiting a false elevation of serum free triiodothyronine (FT3) as a result of a cross-reaction with diclofenac. The first case is a 66-yr-old woman with a long history of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The patient was receiving diclofenac for the treatment of her RA. The patient was subsequently diagnosed as having thyroid papillary adenocarcinoma and received a subtotal thyroidectomy. After the operation, the patient exhibited postoperative hypothyroidism except for a gradual elevation of FT3. The other two patients also exhibited an elevated serum FT3 level after the administration of diclofenac. Serum FT3 levels in these pa- tients decreased to normal or below normal after diclofenac administration was discontinued. In the first case, the elimination of immunoglobulin from the sera using polyethylene glycol precipitation did not reduce the FT3 level. In our hospital, Vitros ECi (enhanced chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay) system and Vitros FT3 kit were used for FT3 assay.

    Semester-IV Sub Name-medicinal chemistry-I (sub code-BP-402T) Objective Sodium salicylate, Aspirin, Mefenamic acid*, Meclofenamate, Indomethacin, Sulindac, Tolmetin, Zomepriac, Diclofenac, Ketorolac, Ibuprofen*, Naproxen, Piroxicam, Phenacetin, Acetaminophen, Antipyrine, Phenylbutazone. 1. INTRODUCTION A drug or substance that reduces inflammation (redness, swelling, and pain) in the body. Anti- inflammatory agents block certain substances in the body that cause inflammation. They are used to treat many different conditions. Some anti-inflammatory agents are being studied in the prevention and treatment of cancer. 1.1 CLASSIFICATION NSAIDs can be classified based on their chemical structure or mechanism of action. Older NSAIDs were known long before their mechanism of action was elucidated and were for this reason classified by chemical structure or origin. Newer substances are more often classified by mechanism of action. Salicylate • Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) • Diflunisal (Dolobid) • Salicylic acid and its salts Propionic acid derivatives • Ibuprofen • Dexibuprofen • Naproxen • Fenoprofen • Ketoprofen • Dexketoprofen Acetic acid derivatives • Indomethacin • Tolmetin • Sulindac • Ketorolac • Diclofenac • Aceclofenac • Nabumetone (drug itself is non-acidic but the active, principal metabolite has a carboxylic acid group) Enolic acid (oxicam) derivatives • Piroxicam • Meloxicam • Tenoxicam • Droxicam • Lornoxicam • Isoxicam (withdrawn from market 1985) • Phenylbutazone Anthranilic acid derivatives (fenamates) The following NSAIDs are

College of Pharmacy, India • Benzoic acid 2School of Pharmacy and Research, Peoples University, India • Antibacterial & Anti-inflammatory 3School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, India Abstract An efficient lead molecule Pyrazolidine-3, 5-dione derivative has been developed as anti-inflammatory and antibacterial agents. In the present investigation, the compounds (RS-1 to RS-10) were synthesized according to Scheme 1 using 4-substituted benzoic acid as starting material. This acid is converted into the respective ester (R1 to R5) and then ester is converted into hydrazide (R2A1 to R2A5 & R2B1 to R2B5), and finally into the pyrazolidine-3,5-diones (tested compound). The compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity by the carrageen an-induced paw edema method and anti-bacterial activity using zone of inhibition method. Out of these compounds RS-6, RS-9, RS-10, and RS-2 were found to be the most active synthesized compounds, with significant anti-inflammatory activity. The Structure Activity Relationship (SAR) of these synthesized compounds showed that substitution with Nitro and Chloro group at para position of phenyl ring is produce optimum activity, as among all the synthesized compounds, the most active ones were RS-6, RS-9, and RS-10.

  • Variable in Their Efficacy? a Description of Ion Trapping
    Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases 1993; 52: 241-243 241 HYPOTHESIS Why are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs so variable in their efficacy? A description of ion trapping G A Ellis, D R Blake Hypothesis Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs vary in Our hypothesis is that acidic non-steroidal their aqueous solubility, but most are highly anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) undergo albumin bound and will be co-distributed with ion trapping in acidotic tissue and that this this protein.

  • The Acceleration of Articular Cartilage Degeneration in Osteoarthritis by Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs Ross A
    WONDER WHY? THE ACCELERATION OF ARTICULAR CARTILAGE DEGENERATION IN OSTEOARTHRITIS WONDER WHY? The Acceleration of Articular Cartilage Degeneration in Osteoarthritis by Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs Ross A. Hauser, MD A B STRA C T introduction over the past forty years is one of the main causes of the rapid rise in the need for hip and knee Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are replacements, both now and in the future. among the most commonly used drugs in the world for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) symptoms, and are While it is admirable for the various consensus and taken by 20-30% of elderly people in developed countries. rheumatology organizations to educate doctors and Because of the potential for significant side effects of the lay public about the necessity to limit NSAID use in these medications on the liver, stomach, gastrointestinal OA, the author recommends that the following warning tract and heart, including death, treatment guidelines label be on each NSAID bottle: advise against their long term use to treat OA. One of the best documented but lesser known long-term side effects The use of this nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory of NSAIDs is their negative impact on articular cartilage. medication has been shown in scientific studies to accelerate the articular cartilage breakdown In the normal joint, there is a balance between the in osteoarthritis. Use of this product poses a continuous process of cartilage matrix degradation and significant risk in accelerating osteoarthritis joint repair. In OA, there is a disruption of the homeostatic breakdown. Anyone using this product for the pain state and the catabolic (breakdown) processes of of osteoarthritis should be under a doctor’s care and chondrocytes.
