A novel anti-HIV active integrase inhibitor with a favorable in vitro cytochrome P450 and uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase metabolism profile.

ABSTRACT: Research efforts on the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) integrase have resulted in two approved drugs. However, co-infection of HIV with Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other microbial and viral agents has introduced added complications to this pandemic, requiring favorable drug-drug interaction profiles for antiviral therapeutics targeting HIV. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) and uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) are pivotal determining factors in the occurrence of adverse drug-drug interactions. For this reason, it is important that anti-HIV agents, such as integrase inhibitors, possess favorable profiles with respect to CYP and UGT. We have discovered a novel HIV integrase inhibitor (compound 1) that exhibits low nM antiviral activity against a diverse set of HIV-1 isolates, and against HIV-2 and the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). Compound 1 displays low in vitro cytotoxicity and its resistance and related drug susceptibility profiles are favorable. Data from in vitro studies revealed that compound 1 was not a substrate for UGT isoforms and that it was not an inhibitor or activator of key CYP isozymes.

Project description:As a step toward exploring a targeted metabolomics approach to personalized warfarin (Coumadin) therapy, we developed a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method capable of quantifying specific enantiomeric (R and S) contributions of warfarin (WAR) and the corresponding hydroxywarfarins (OH-WAR) and glucuronides (-GLUC) generated by cytochrome P450s (CYP) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs), respectively. Evaluation of quality control samples and three commercially available human samples showed that our analytical approach has the ability to measure 24 unique WAR metabolites in human urine. Evaluation of the human data also provides new insights for evaluating WAR toxicity and begins characterizing important UGT metabolic pathways responsible for WAR detoxification. Data revealed the significance of specific metabolites among patients and the corresponding enzymatic capacity to generate these compounds, including the first report of direct WAR glucuronidation. On the basis of total OH-WAR levels, (S)-7-OH-WAR was the predominant metabolite indicating the significance of CYP2C9 in WAR metabolism, although other CYP2C enzymes also contributed to clearance of this isomer. (R)-WAR hydroxylation to OH-WARs was more diverse among the patients as reflected in varying contributions of CYP1A2 and multiple CYP2C enzymes. There was wide variation in the glucuronidation of WAR and the OH-WARs with respect to the compounds and patients. 6- and 7-OH-WAR were primarily (>70%) excreted as glucuronides unlike 4'-OH-WAR and 8-OH-WAR. For all patients, UGT1A1 is likely responsible for 6-O-GLUC production, although UGT1A10 may also contribute in one patient. 7-O-GLUC levels reflected contributions from potentially five different UGT1A enzymes. In all cases, WAR, 4'-OH-WAR, 8-OH-WAR, and the corresponding glucuronides were minor metabolites with respect to the others. Taken together, these data suggest that both P450 and UGT reactions contribute to the generation of excretable products in human urine, thereby generating complex metabolic networks.

Project description:IntroductionMammographic density (MD), as assessed from film screen mammograms, is determined by the relative content of adipose, connective and epithelial tissue in the female breast. In epidemiological studies, a high percentage of MD confers a four to six fold risk elevation of developing breast cancer, even after adjustment for other known breast cancer risk factors. However, the biologic correlates of density are little known.MethodsGene expression analysis using whole genome arrays was performed on breast biopsies from 143 women; 79 women with no malignancy (healthy women) and 64 newly diagnosed breast cancer patients, both included from mammographic centres. Percent MD was determined using a previously validated, computerized method on scanned mammograms. Significance analysis of microarrays (SAM) was performed to identify genes influencing MD and a linear regression model was used to assess the independent contribution from different variables to MD.ResultsSAM-analysis identified 24 genes differentially expressed between samples from breasts with high and low MD. These genes included three uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) genes and the oestrogen receptor gene (ESR1). These genes were down-regulated in samples with high MD compared to those with low MD. The UGT gene products, which are known to inactivate oestrogen metabolites, were also down-regulated in tumour samples compared to samples from healthy individuals. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the UGT genes associated with the expression of UGT and other genes in their vicinity were identified.ConclusionsThree UGT enzymes were lower expressed both in breast tissue biopsies from healthy women with high MD and in biopsies from newly diagnosed breast cancers. The association was strongest amongst young women and women using hormonal therapy. UGT2B10 predicts MD independently of age, hormone therapy and parity. Our results indicate that down-regulation of UGT genes in women exposed to female sex hormones is associated with high MD and might increase the risk of breast cancer.
