Biliary excretion of foreign compounds. Benzene and its derivatives in the rat.

ABSTRACT: 1. The extent of the excretion in the bile of the rat of benzene and 21 of its simple derivatives was studied. 2. Some 16 compounds of molecular weight less than 200, and including neutral molecules (benzene and toluene), aromatic acids, aromatic amines and phenols, were injected in solution intraperitoneally into biliary-cannulated rats. Metabolites in the bile were identified and estimated. The extent of biliary excretion of these compounds was low, i.e. 0-10% of the dose in 24hr., and most appeared in the bile mainly as conjugates. 3. The biliary excretion of six conjugates of molecular weight less than 300, including three glycine conjugates, one sulphate conjugate, one glucuronic acid conjugate and two acetyl derivatives, was low (less than 3% of the dose). 4. It is concluded that simple benzene derivatives of molecular weight less than about 300 are poorly excreted in rat bile.

Biliary excretion in foreign compounds. Species difference in biliary excretion.

Project description:1. The biliary excretion of injected [(14)C]aniline, [(14)C]benzoic acid, 4-amino-hippuric acid and 4-acetamidohippuric acid in six or eight species of animal (rat, dog, hen, cat, rabbit, guinea pig, rhesus monkey and sheep) was studied. 2. These compounds, with molecular weights in the range 93-236, are poorly excreted in the bile in all the species examined and, in effect, there is little significant species difference in the extent of their biliary excretion. 3. Compounds of higher molecular weight (355-495) were also studied, namely succinylsulphathiazole, [(14)C]stilboestrol glucuronide, sulphadimethoxine N(1)-glucuronide and phenolphthalein glucuronide. 4. With these compounds a clear species difference in the extent of biliary excretion was found, the rat, dog and hen being good excretors, the rabbit, guinea pig and monkey poor excretors, and the cat and sheep taking an intermediary position. 5. There was a general trend for biliary excretion to be higher in all species when the compounds were of higher molecular weight. 6. These results are discussed in their relation to species differences in drug metabolism.

Biliary excretion in foreign compounds. Sulphonamide drugs in the rat.

Project description:1. The extent of biliary excretion in the rat of 15 sulphonamide compounds was studied. 2. Most of the sulphonamides studied, with molecular weights from 172 (sulphanilamide) to 352 (N(4)-acetylsulphadimethoxine) are poorly excreted in the bile (0-4% of the dose), except sulphapyridine, sulphamethoxypyridazine and sulphadimethoxine. The last three are partly metabolized to glucuronides, whose molecular weights and polarities are such as to allow them to be excreted in the bile in appreciable amounts. 3. Succinylsulphathiazole and phthalylsulphathiazole are polar and have molecular weights (355 and 403) of an appropriate order, and are excreted unchanged in the bile in appreciable amounts. 4. Sulphadimethoxine N(1)-glucuronide (mol.wt. 487) is extensively excreted in the bile unchanged. 5. The results are examined in the light of the hypotheses put forward in the preceding paper (Millburn, Smith & Williams, 1967).

Estimation of biliary excretion of foreign compounds using properties of molecular structure.

Project description:Biliary excretion is one of the main elimination pathways for drugs and/or their metabolites. Therefore, an insight into the structural profile of cholephilic compounds through accurate modelling of the biliary excretion is important for the estimation of clinical pharmacokinetics in early stages of drug discovery. The aim of this study was to develop quantitative structure-activity relationships as computational tools for the estimation of biliary excretion and identification of the molecular properties controlling this process. The study used percentage of dose excreted intact into bile measured in vivo in rat for a diverse dataset of 217 compounds. Statistical techniques were multiple linear regression analysis, regression trees, random forest and boosted trees. A simple regression tree model generated using the CART algorithm was the most accurate in the estimation of the percentage of bile excretion of compounds, and this outperformed the more sophisticated boosted trees and random forest techniques. Analysis of the outliers indicated that the models perform best when lipophilicity is not too extreme (log P < 5.35) and for compounds with molecular weight above 280 Da. Molecular descriptors selected by all these models including the top ten incorporated in boosted trees and random forest indicated a higher biliary excretion for relatively hydrophilic compounds especially if they are anionic or cationic, and have a large molecular size. A statistically validated molecular weight threshold for potentially significant biliary excretion was above 348 Da.

Biliary excretion of foreign compounds. Biphenyl, stilboestrol and phenolphthalein in the rat: molecular weight, polarity and metabolism as factors in biliary excretion.

Project description:1. The extent of biliary excretion of biphenyl, tetralin, stilboestrol and phenolphthalein was studied in the rat. 2. Biphenyl and its 4-hydroxy and 4,4'-dihydroxy derivatives are extensively excreted in the bile as glucuronides in amounts increasing in order of molecular weight. 3. Stilboestrol and its glucuronide are excreted almost quantitatively in the bile mainly as the monoglucuronide, as are also phenolphthalein and its glucuronide. 4. Tetralin is excreted to the extent of about 13% of the dose, mainly as ac-tetralyl glucuronides. 5. The results and those of Abou-El-Makarem, Millburn, Smith & Williams (1967) are discussed and it is concluded that the extent of biliary excretion of foreign compounds in rats depends on their molecular weight and their possessing a strongly polar anionic group. There appears to be a minimum value of this molecular weight below which little biliary excretion (i.e. not more than 5-10% of the dose) occurs. There is some latitude in the choice of this molecular weight, which is about 325+/-50. The necessary molecular weight and polar group can be acquired by metabolism. Above this minimum value biliary excretion increases with molecular weight. It is suggested that the mechanism of the biliary excretion of foreign compounds may be similar to that of conjugated bile acids, which are highly polar and whose molecular weights exceed 400.

Kinetic measurements of the biliary excretion of metabolized compounds.

Project description:1. Rats received constant infusions of bromosulphophthalein or [carboxy-14C]cholic acid at a range of concentrations. 2. Kinetic parameters describing the biliary excretion of the compounds were determined. 3. The biliary excretion of both compounds could be described by the same kinetic parameters already calculated for phenolphthalein disulphate, which is excreted in the bile unchanged.

Biliary excretion of amphetamine and methamphetamine in the rat.

Project description:1. (14)C-labelled amphetamine and methamphetamine were injected into rats cannulated at the bile duct under thiopentone anaesthesia and the output of their metabolites in urine and bile was determined. 2. With amphetamine, 69% of the (14)C was excreted in the urine and 16% in the bile in 24h. The main metabolite in bile was the glucuronide of 4-hydroxyamphetamine. The output of unchanged amphetamine was much greater in cannulated rats than in intact rats. 3. With methamphetamine, 54% of the (14)C appeared in the urine and 18% in the bile. The main metabolite in the bile was the glucuronide of 4-hydroxynorephedrine. The output of amphetamine, a metabolite of methamphetamine, was much greater in cannulated rats than in intact rats. 4. Evidence has been obtained for the enterohepatic circulation of certain amphetamine and methamphetamine metabolites in the rat. 5. Thiopentone anaesthesia appeared to inhibit the ring hydroxylation of amphetamine administered as such or formed as a metabolite of methamphetamine.

Novel testing strategy for prediction of rat biliary excretion of intravenously administered estradiol-17β glucuronide.

Project description:The aim of the present study was to develop a generic rat physiologically based kinetic (PBK) model that includes a novel testing strategy where active biliary excretion is incorporated using estradiol-17β glucuronide (E217βG) as the model substance. A major challenge was the definition of the scaling factor for the in vitro to in vivo conversion of the PBK-model parameter Vmax. In vitro values for the Vmax and Km for transport of E217βG were found in the literature in four different studies based on experiments with primary rat hepatocytes. The required scaling factor was defined based on fitting the PBK model-based predicted values to reported experimental data on E217βG blood levels and cumulative biliary E217βG excretion. This resulted in a scaling factor of 129 mg protein/g liver. With this scaling factor the PBK model predicted the in vivo data for blood and cumulative biliary E217βG levels with on average of less than 1.8-fold deviation. The study provides a proof of principle on how biliary excretion can be included in a generic PBK model using primary hepatocytes to define the kinetic parameters that describe the biliary excretion.

Biliary excretion of some anionic derivatives of diethylstilboestrol and phenolphthalein in the guinea pig.

Project description:The metabolic fates and modes of excretion of diethylstilboestrol mono[35S]sulphate and diethylstilboestrol di[35S]sulphate were studied in the guinea pig. Comparative studies were also made with [G-3H]diethylstilboestrol and phenolphthalein di[35S]sulphate. Diethylstiboesterol di[35S]sulphate was extensively eliminated in the bile unchanged. After administration of diethylstilboestrol mono[35S]sulphate, extensive biliary elimination of radioactivity was also recorded. Radioactive components were identified as diethylstilboestrol disulphate, diethylstilboestrol monosulphate monoglucuronide and unchanged diethylstilboestrol monosulphate. When [G-3H]diethylstilboestrol was administered, 3H-labelled diethylstilboestrol monoglucuronide, diethylstilboestrol monosulphate monoglucuronide and diethylstilboestrol disulphate appeared in the bile. Phenolphthalein di[35S]sulphate was excreted unchanged in bile. These findings are discussed in relation to studies carried out in the rat [Barford, Olavesen, Curtis & Powell (1977) Biochem. J. 164, 423--430] and species differences are related to differences in enzyme activities in rat and guinea-pig liver.

Biliary excretion of [C]succinylsulphathiazole in the rat and rabbit.

Project description:1. After intravenous injection about 30% of the dose (20mg./kg.) of succinylsulphathiazole is excreted unchanged in the bile in 3hr. by the rat, whereas only about 1% is excreted by the rabbit. When the renal pedicles are ligated the biliary excretion of succinylsulphathiazole in the rat increases to about 80% of the dose, but in the rabbit under these conditions the biliary excretion is only 2% of the dose. 2. In the rat, the sulphonamide readily enters the liver and biliary excretion occurs against a concentration gradient from liver to bile; further, the excretory process can be saturated, and can be depressed by the simultaneous administration of phenolphthalein glucuronide or bile salts. 3. In the rabbit, these conditions have not been found; succinylsulphathiazole does not readily enter the liver from the plasma, there is no transfer of the drug from the liver cells to the bile against a concentration gradient, and no saturation or depression of the biliary excretion of succinylsulphathiazole is found. 4. It is suggested that two factors responsible, at least partly, for the low biliary excretion of succinylsulphathiazole in the rabbit are the poor entry of the sulphonamide into the liver in this species and a deficiency of the concentrative mechanism for its excretion in the bile.

Biliary excretion of excess iron in mice

Project description:Iron is an essential nutrient yet toxic in excess. Our understanding of mammalian mechanisms of dietary iron absorption exceeds our understanding of mechanisms of iron excretion. Here we demonstrate that biliary excretion of excess iron in mice requires the metal transporter SLC39A14 and that excess Fe is excreted into bile as ferritin and heme. The identification of a molecular determinant of iron excretion and the biochemical form of bile iron could lead to development of novel therapeutics for human diseases of iron excess
