  • Stimulatory Action of Telmisartan, an Antagonist of Angiotensin II Receptor, on Voltage-Gated Na+ Current: Experimental and Theoretical Studies
    Chinese Journal of Physiology 61(1): 1-13, 2018 1 DOI: 10.4077/CJP.2018.BAG516 Stimulatory Action of Telmisartan, an Antagonist of Angiotensin II Receptor, on Voltage-Gated Na+ Current: Experimental and Theoretical Studies Tzu-Tung Chang, Chia-Jung Yang, Yu-Chi Lee, and Sheng-Nan Wu Department of Physiology, National Cheng Kung University Medical College, Tainan 70101, Taiwan, Republic of China Abstract Telmisartan (Tel) is recognized as a non-peptide blocker of AT1R. Whether this agent has any direct effects on ion currents remains unexplored. In whole-cell current recordings, addition of Tel + increased the peak amplitude of voltage-gated Na (NaV) current (INa) accompanied by the increased time constant of INa inactivation in differentiated NSC-34 motor neuron-like cells. Tel-stimulated INa in these cells is unlinked to either blockade of AT1R or activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ). In order to explore how this compound affects the amplitude and kinetics of INa in neurons, a Hodgkin-Huxley-based (HH-based) model designed to mimic effect of Tel on the functional activities of neurons was computationally created in this study. In this framework, the parameter for h inactivation gating variable, which was changed in a stepwise fashion, was implemented + + to predict changes in membrane potentials (V) as a function of maximal Na (GNa), K conductance (GK), or both. As inactivation time course of INa was increased, the bifurcation point of V versus GNa became lower, and the range between subcritical and supercritical values at the bifurcation of V versus GK correspondingly became larger.

  • Importance of Hepatic Transporters, Including Basolateral Efflux Proteins, in Drug Disposition: Impact of Phospholipidosis and Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis
    IMPORTANCE OF HEPATIC TRANSPORTERS, INCLUDING BASOLATERAL EFFLUX PROTEINS, IN DRUG DISPOSITION: IMPACT OF PHOSPHOLIPIDOSIS AND NON-ALCOHOLIC STEATOHEPATITIS Brian C. Ferslew A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences in the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy Chapel Hill 2014 Approved by: Dhiren Thakker Mary F. Paine A. Sidney Barritt Kim L.R. Brouwer Jo Ellen Rodgers Wei Jia ©2014 Brian C. Ferslew ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Brian C. Ferslew: Importance of Hepatic Transporters, Including Basolateral Efflux Proteins, in Drug Disposition: Impact of Phospholipidosis and Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (Under the direction of Kim L.R. Brouwer) The objective of this dissertation project was to develop preclinical and clinical tools to assess the impact of liver pathology on transporter-mediated systemic and hepatic exposure to medications. A translational approach utilizing established pre-clinical hepatic transport systems, mathematical modeling, and a pivotal in vivo human study was employed. A novel application of rat sandwich-cultured hepatocytes (SCH) was developed to evaluate the impact of drug-induced phospholipidosis on the vectorial transport of probe substrates for hepatic basolateral and canalicular transport proteins. Results indicated that rat SCH treated with prototypical hepatic phospholipidosis inducers are a sensitive and selective model for drug-induced phospholipidosis; both organic anion transporting polypeptide-mediated uptake and bile salt export pump-mediated biliary excretion were reduced after the onset of phospholipidosis. Enalapril currently is being investigated for its anti-fibrotic effects in the treatment of patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).

  • Telmisartan Teva, INN-Telmisartan
    ANNEX I SUMMARY OF PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS 1 1. NAME OF THE MEDICINAL PRODUCT Telmisartan Teva 20 mg tablets 2. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION Each tablet contains 20 mg telmisartan Excipients: Each tablet contains 21.4 mg sorbitol (E420) For a full list of excipients, see section 6.1. 3. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Tablet White to off white, oval shaped tablet; one side of the tablet is debossed with the number "93". The other side of the tablet is debossed with the number "7458". 4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 Therapeutic indications Treatment of essential hypertension in adults. 4.2 Posology and method of administration The usually effective dose is 40 mg once daily. Some patients may already benefit at a daily dose of 20 mg. In cases where the target blood pressure is not achieved, the dose of telmisartan can be increased to a maximum of 80 mg once daily. Alternatively, telmisartan may be used in combination with thiazide-type diuretics such as hydrochlorothiazide, which has been shown to have an additive blood pressure lowering effect with telmisartan. When considering raising the dose, it must be borne in mind that the maximum antihypertensive effect is generally attained four to eight weeks after the start of treatment (see section 5.1). Telmisartan may be taken with or without food. Renal impairment No posology adjustment is required for patients with mild to moderate renal impairment. Limited experience is available in patients with severe renal impairment or haemodialysis. A lower starting dose of 20 mg is recommended in these patients (see section 4.4). Hepatic impairment In patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment, the posology should not exceed 40 mg once daily (see section 4.4).
