  • Azosemide Is More Potent Than Bumetanide and Various Other Loop
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Azosemide is more potent than bumetanide and various other loop diuretics to inhibit the sodium- Received: 21 November 2017 Accepted: 14 June 2018 potassium-chloride-cotransporter Published: xx xx xxxx human variants hNKCC1A and hNKCC1B Philip Hampel 1,2, Kerstin Römermann1, Nanna MacAulay 3 & Wolfgang Löscher1,2 The Na+–K+–2Cl− cotransporter NKCC1 plays a role in neuronal Cl− homeostasis secretion and represents a target for brain pathologies with altered NKCC1 function. Two main variants of NKCC1 have been identifed: a full-length NKCC1 transcript (NKCC1A) and a shorter splice variant (NKCC1B) that is particularly enriched in the brain. The loop diuretic bumetanide is often used to inhibit NKCC1 in brain disorders, but only poorly crosses the blood-brain barrier. We determined the sensitivity of the two human NKCC1 splice variants to bumetanide and various other chemically diverse loop diuretics, using the Xenopus oocyte heterologous expression system. Azosemide was the most potent NKCC1 inhibitor (IC50s 0.246 µM for hNKCC1A and 0.197 µM for NKCC1B), being about 4-times more potent than bumetanide. Structurally, a carboxylic group as in bumetanide was not a prerequisite for potent NKCC1 inhibition, whereas loop diuretics without a sulfonamide group were less potent. None of the drugs tested were selective for hNKCC1B vs. hNKCC1A, indicating that loop diuretics are not a useful starting point to design NKCC1B-specifc compounds. Azosemide was found to exert an unexpectedly potent inhibitory efect and as a non-acidic compound, it is more likely to cross the blood-brain barrier than bumetanide. Te Na+–K+–2Cl− cotransporter NKCC1 (encoded by SLC12A2) plays an important role in Cl- uptake in neu- rons both in developing brain and in adult sensory neurons1,2.

  • A New Diuretic That Does Not Reduce Renal Handling of Uric Acid in Rats, S-8666 Yukio YONETANI, Kazumi IWAKI, Mitsuo ISHII and H
    A New Diuretic That Does Not Reduce Renal Handling of Uric Acid in Rats, S-8666 Yukio YONETANI, Kazumi IWAKI, Mitsuo ISHII and Hiroshi HARADA ShionogiResearch Laboratories, Shionogi & Co., Ltd., Fukushima-ku,Osaka 553, Japan AcceptedJanuary 6, 1987 Abstract-The uric acid-retaining effects of diuretics were studied using sodium restricted spontaneously hypertensive rats. Test agents were administered orally once a day for two weeks. Diuretic thiazides such as trichlormethiazide and hydrochlorothiazide and loop diuretics such as furosemide and indacrinone clearly reduced the renal function for uric acid excretion in treatment which produced major effects such as diuresis, saluresis and hypotension. However, a new diuretic with uricosuric activity, S-8666, developed in our laboratories, had no effect on the renal handling of uric acid at doses which showed major effects similar to those of other diuretics. The results should aid the understanding of the utility of S-8666 as a new diuretic antihypertensive which does not cause hyperuricemia during therapy. The high incidence of hyperuricemia to 8666), which is active in rats and chimpanzees hypertension (1, 2) has required the develop (8).

  • Diuretics -August 2014
    Indian Health Service National Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee Formulary Brief: Diuretics -August 2014- Background: The IHS National Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee (NPTC) reviewed the diuretics class at the August 2014 meeting. The last review of this class occurred two years ago with the addition of chlorthalidone to the National Core Formulary (NCF). However, with the release of JNC 8 it was decided to review the class again to evaluate if any other modifications were necessary. The discussion included clinical, utilization and procurement data for this class of medications. This discussion did not lead to a formulary modification; however it was felt that a formulary brief would be of benefit to IHS providers. Discussion: Historically, diuretics have been the mainstay for the treatment of hypertension and the first line agent. Worldwide hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) is the most widely prescribed medication for blood pressure.1 The publishing of JNC 8 reinforced thiazide-type diuretics as being the first line choice for the treatment of hypertension with a review of the most current clinical studies (only RTCs were reviewed by the panel). The following is the recommendation from JNC 8 and is rated a grade B: Recommendation 6: In the general nonblack population, including those with diabetes, initial antihypertensive treatment should include a thiazide-type diuretic, calcium channel blocker (CCB), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). (Moderate Recommendation) The main difference between JNC 7 and JNC 8 is although thiazide-type diuretics have been show in studies to have a more potent effect at lowering blood pressure than CCB, ACEI and ARB, these agents can also be used as first line therapy depending on therapeutic necessity.

    Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA Vol. 85, pp. 2311-2314, April 1988 Medical Sciences Thiazide diuretic drug receptors in rat kidney: Identification with [3H]metolazone KEVIN BEAUMONT*, DUKE A. VAUGHN, AND DARRELL D. FANESTIL Department of Medicine, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093 Communicated by Robert W. Berliner, December 4, 1987 ABSTRACT Thiazides and related diuretics inhibit NaCl unsaturated precursor, 7-chloro-3,4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxo- reabsorption in the distal tubule through an unknown mech- 3-o-tolyl-6-quinazolinesulfonamide, using sodium boro[PH]- anism. We report here that [3H~metolazone, a diuretic with a hydride in aqueous ethanol (4). The product was purified by thiazide-like mechanism of action, labels a site in rat kidney TLC to >98% purity and had a specific activity of 11.3 membranes that has characteristics of the thiazide-sensitive Ci/mmol (1 Ci = 37 GBq). The purity of the [3H]metolazone ion transporter. [3HJMetolazone bound with high affinity was assessed by reverse-phase HPLC (5) and remained >98% (Kd = 4.27 nM) to a site with a density of 0.717 pmol/mg of throughout the course of the study. protein in kidney membranes. The binding site was localized Metolazone and its precursor were generously provided to the renal cortex, with little or no binding in other kidney by Pennwalt (Rochester, NY). Diuretics were also donated regions and 11 other tissues. The affinities of thiazide-type by the following: bendroflumethiazide by Squibb, quine- diuretics for this binding site were significantly correlated with thazone by Lederle Laboratories (Pearl River, NY), poly- their clinical potency.
