Abstract:
Background Sevoflurane is degraded during low-flow anesthesia to fluoromethyl-2,2-difluoro-1-(trifluoromethyl)vinyl ether ("compound A"), which causes renal necrosis in rats but is not known to cause nephrotoxicity in surgical patients. Compound A is metabolized to glutathione S-conjugates and then to cysteine S-conjugates, which are N-acetylated to mercapturic acids (detoxication pathway), or metabolized by renal beta-lyase to reactive intermediates (toxification pathway) and excreted as 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-fluoromethoxypropanoic acid. This investigation quantified compound A metabolites in uri

Abstract:
Metabolic disposition of ethylene oxide, dibromoethane, and acrylonitrile in rats after acute exposure was studied by examining the relationship between dose and urinary metabolites, and by establishing the influence of a glutathione precursor, L-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (OTCA), on the above relationship. Respective urinary metabolites, hydroxyethylmercapturic acid, cyanoethylmercapturic acid, thiocyanate, and ethylene glycol, were quantified to estimate the extent to which each compound was metabolized. The animals were given either ethylene oxide (0.34, 0.68, or 1.36 mmol/kg), dib

Abstract:
Abstract Zebrafish (Danio rerio) early life stages offer a versatile model system to study the efficacy and safety of drugs or other chemicals with regard to human and environmental health. This is because, aside from the well-characterized genome of zebrafish and the availability of a broad range of experimental and computational research tools, they are exceptionally well suited for high-throughput approaches. Yet, one important pharmacokinetic aspect is thus far only poorly understood in zebrafish embryo and early larvae: their biotransformation capacity. Especially, biotransformation of el

Abstract:
Mammalian γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT) is a glycoprotein consisting of two subunits - a light chain and a heavy chain. The light chain contains the catalytic activity; the heavy chain anchors the protein to the membrane. GGT catalyzes the hydrolysis of the γ-glutamyl isopeptide bond of glutathione conjugates, releasing glutamic acid, or the transfer of the γ-glutamyl group to an acceptor substrate. The specificity of the enzyme for xenobiotic donor substrates has not been fully characterized. The transpeptidation activity of bovine kidney GGT was measured with glycylglycine as acceptor substrat

Abstract:
Following conjugation with glutathione, xenobiotics are converted into cysteinylglycine conjugates, cysteine conjugates, and, finally, mercapturic acids. The structural factors determining the activities of dipeptidases for the metabolism of toxicologically-relevant cysteinylglycine conjugates are not well understood. I purified porcine kidney cortex membrane dipeptidase (MDP) to homogeneity, via phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C-mediated cleavage of the protein’s membrane anchor and cilastatin affinity chromatography.
