Pharmacokinetics of pentaerythritol tetranitrate following intra-arterial and oral dosing in the rat.

The pharmacokinetics of pentaerythritol tetranitrate (2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol tetranitrate, 1) were studied in rats following a single intra-arterial or oral dose (2 mg/kg) of the 14C-labeled drug. Blood levels of the tetranitrate and its metabolites were determined using a thin-layer radiochromatographic procedure. The apparent systemic clearance of 1 was 0.61 +/- 0.16 L/min/kg (mean +/- SD, n = 6) which exceeded the value of normal cardiac output in rats. The steady-state volume of distribution was 4.2 +/- 1.1 L/kg (n = 6), and the elimination half-life was estimated at 5.8 +/- 0.6 min (n = 6). Blood levels of 1 were only detectable (higher than 4.0 ng/mL) in three of the six rats examined after the oral dose. The trinitrate derivative (2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol trinitrate, 2) the active metabolite of 1, was not detectable following oral dosing with the tetranitrate. The oral bioavailability of 1 was in the range of 0-8%. In spite of the low water solubility of 1 (i.e., 1 microgram/mL), a rather high fraction of the radioactive oral dose [25.7 +/- 10.3% (n = 4) versus 62.4 +/- 14.5% (n = 4) from the intra-arterial dose] was recovered in the urine. A significant portion of the intra-arterial dose (32.7 +/- 11.0%, n = 4) was eliminated in feces, indicating enterohepatic recycling of radioactivity. Analysis of the metabolite pattern in urine indicated extensive metabolism of 1, 2, and the dinitrate derivative 3 (2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol dinitrate). Less than 0.2% of the dose was recovered as unchanged drug and 2 following either route of administration.

Osmotic effects on volume and motility of bull sperm exposed to membrane permeable and nonpermeable agents.

Factorially arranged experiments were designed to study prefreeze packed cell volume (PCV) changes and associated percentages of motile and unstained bull sperm in simple macromolecule-free Tyrode's solution and egg yolk-Tris (EYT), varying in osmolarity, and with addition of rapidly permeating cryoprotectants, glycerol and 1,2-propanediol, and nonpermeating substances, sucrose and NaCl. The percentage of motile and unstained sperm was assessed after resuspending sperm in 300 mOsm/L Tyrode's solution. At 25 degreesC PCV increased in Tyrode's solution as osmolarity was decreased from 250 to 150 mOsm/L and decreased as Tyrode's solution was increased to 400 mosmol/L. The relationship of PCV to the reciprocal of the osmolarity was essentially linear over the range of 150 to 400 mOsm/L, but PCV did not decrease further in solutions ranging from 500 to 1000 mOsm/L. The percentage of motile sperm declined to zero in Tyrode's solution at 700 mOsm/L, but 40% of the sperm were still unstained in 1000 mOsm/L solutions. The addition of glycerol or 1,2-propanediol had little effect on PCV. With glycerol or 1,2-propanediol added to 308 mOsm/L Tyrode's solution to give a total of 1267 mOsm/L, there were 49 and 56% motile sperm, respectively, compared to 1% with NaCl added to give 787 mOsm/L. The PCV and percentage of motile sperm suspended in EYT responded to osmotic changes similar to those reported for Tyrode's solution at both 25 and 5 degreesC. Some sperm remained motile after initial exposure to 800 mOsm/L solutions. These findings may have application in improving bull sperm cryopreservation.

Phospholipid studies of marine organisms: 14. Ether lipids of the sponge Tethya aurantia.

The novel unesterified alkyl glycerol monoethers, (2S)-1-(hexadecyloxy)-2,3-propanediol (1), (2S)-1-(16-methylheptadecyloxy)-2,3-propanediol (2) and (2S)-1-(15-methylheptadecyloxy)-2,3-propanediol (3) were isolated from the marine sponge Tethya aurantia and were characterized by spectroscopic methods. These three saturated ethers as well as a series of alk-1'-enyl glycerol monoethers were also encountered in the phospholipids of the same sponge after reduction with LiAlH4. Incorporation experiments with dissociated cells of T. aurantia indicated that [1-14C]-hexadecanol was incorporated into the unesterified alkyl glycerol monoethers.

Reactions of the nitroso analogue of chloramphenicol with reduced glutathione.

Nitroso-chloramphenicol (NOCAP) was synthetized by reduction of chloramphenicol (CAP) with zinc dust in a modification of the procedure published by Corbett and Chipko. The radioactive derivative was similarly prepared from [dichloroacetamido-1-14C]CAP. NOCAP rapidly reacted with GSH with the formation of hydroxylamino-chloramphenicol (NHOHCAP), D-(-)-threo-1-(p-hydroxylaminophenyl)-2-dichloroacetamido-1,3-propanediol and glutathione disulfide (GSSG). In addition, a hydrophilic sulfinamide was formed (GSONHCAP), D-(-)-threo-1-(p-glutathionesulfinamidophenyl)-2-dichloroacetamido-1, 3-propanediol. Free amino-chloramphenicol (NH2CAP), D-(-)-threo-1-(p-aminophenyl)-2-dichloracetamido-1,3-propanediol, was not detected. The proportion of NHOHCAP formed increased with increasing GSH concn, at the expense of GSONHCAP. Analysis by stopped-flow spectroscopy revealed formation of a labile adduct in the reaction of NOCAP with GSH (k = 5500 M-1 sec-1 at 37 degrees, pH 7.4). This reaction was reversible because nearly all NOCAP could be extracted with ether from the labile intermediate. The equilibrium adduct/NOCAP was dependent on GSH concn (K = 4500 M-1 at 37 degrees, pH 7.4). The labile intermediate either isomerized to the sulfinamide, GSONHCAP (favoured by decreasing pH at constant GSH), or it was thiolytically cleaved by another GSH molecule to NHOHCAP and GSSG (favoured by increasing GSH at constant pH). At acid pH, GSONHCAP readily hydrolyzed to NH2CAP and glutathionesulfinic acid. Thus, NOCAP reacts with thiols similar to nitrosobenzene. A scheme is presented for the proposed reaction mechanism. It is concluded that most of the NOCAP, if formed in the intestine or liver, will be rapidly disposed by reactions with GSH. Hence, toxic concns at the sensitive target, i.e. the bone marrow, may usually be prevented.

Developmental capacity of bovine oocytes frozen in different cryoprotectants.

Iso-osmolar concentrations of 1.6 M of 1,2-propanediol, glycerol and dimethylsulfoxide were compared for their effectiveness as cryoprotectants for in vitro-matured bovine oocytes. Survival, defined as the number of morphologically normal oocytes, after freeze-thawing in 1,2-propanediol (49.8%) was significantly higher (P<0.01) than in glycerol (28.6%) or dimethylsulfoxide (32.6%). After insemination, the fertilization rate of morphologically normal oocytes frozen-thawed in 1,2-propanediol (57.9%) was higher (P<0.05) than that of those frozen in dimethylsulfoxide (38.3%). However, the proportion of surviving oocytes developing to blastocysts was not different among the 3 groups.

In vitro maturation and fertilization of goat oocytes frozen at the germinal vesicle stage.

The ability of frozen immature goat oocytes to undergo in vitro maturation (IVM) and fertilization (IVF) was investigated. Fully grown germinal vesicle stage (GV-stage) goat oocytes were submitted to different variables of cryopreservation: 1) exposure to propanediol before maturation but without freezing to detect the level of damage attributable to propanediol alone, 2) removal of cumulus cells to mimic damage attributable to osmotic stress during cryoprotectant exposure or freezing procedure, and 3) rapid freezing with propanediol. Maturation and fertilization rates were 82.1, 71, 65.3 and 23.7% and 71.2, 40, 58.4 and 23.1% for control, exposed, denuded and frozen oocytes, respectively. These results indicate that freezing sticto sensu (i.e., cooling and warming phases) have detrimental effects on IVM of GV-stage oocytes, whereas the reduced IVF rates of post-thaw matured oocytes are imputable to a cryoprotectant effect.

Genotoxicity, metabolism and blood kinetics of epichlorohydrin in mice.

Epichlorohydrin (ECH), a direct mutagen in vitro, did not induce chromosomal aberrations in bone-marrow cells of CD1 mice given single oral doses of 50 and 200 mg/kg in water. The ECH diol derivative (3-chloro-1,2-propanediol) was tested in vitro by a forward-mutation assay on the yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe and showed a weak but significant mutagenic effect. The failure of ECH to induce mutagenic effects appears to be due to the rapid metabolic clearance of the compound in vivo. ECH blood kinetics at both doses, and at the same time the concentration of the diol, were determined. ECH rapidly disappeared from mouse blood, being no longer detectable 20 min after treatment. In contrast, 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol was measurable up to 5 h after dosage. No difference was observed in the kinetic and metabolic behavior of ECH after single and repeated doses (50 and 200 mg/kg/day for 7 days). When 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol was tested, neither glutathione depletion nor epoxide hydrolase inhibition (evaluated with both styrene-7,8-oxide and ECH as substrates) could be detected in mouse liver. Finally, no difference in ECH blood kinetics or metabolism were observed in experiments in which the compound was administered (200 mg/kg) intraperitoneally in water or orally as a solution in dimethyl sulfoxide.

Phenotypic diversity of anaerobic glycerol dissimilation shown by seven enterobacterial species.

The anaerobic glycerol pathway was studied in seven enterobacterial species selected as representative of different behaviours in terms of anaerobic glycerol dissimilation. The presence of oxidative and reductive pathways of the dha regulon in Klebsiella pneumoniae enabled the cells to grow fermentatively on glycerol. The first two enzymes of the dha regulon (glycerol dehydrogenase type I and dihydroxyacetone kinase) represent the oxidative branch, while the latter two (glycerol dehydratase and 1,3-propanediol dehydrogenase) represent the reductive branch of glycerol fermentation. The slower utilization of glycerol by K. oxytoca was attributed to low production of 1,3-propanediol. K. oxytoca lacked glycerol dehydratase and demonstrated low 1,3-propanediol dehydrogenase activity. K. planticola and K. ozaenae differed from K. pneumoniae and K. oxytoca in lacking the ability to grow on glycerol. K. planticola lacked both enzymes of the reductive branch of glycerol fermentation, and K. ozaenae possessed glycerol dehydrogenase only. K. rhinoscleromatis and Hafnia alvei, like Escherichia coli, did not possess a dha regulon. The glycerol dehydrogenase type II of H. alvei was distinct from that of E. coli. The phenotypic diversity of anaerobic glycerol dissimilation may have taxonomic applications.

Taxonomic diversity of anaerobic glycerol dissimilation in the Enterobacteriaceae.

A total of 1,123 strains representing 128 taxa in the Enterobacteriaceae (named species or subspecies and genomic species) were screened for the presence of glycerol dehydrogenases and 1,3-propanediol dehydrogenase. Only eight taxa, Citrobacter freundii sensu stricto, C. youngae, C. braakii, C. werkmanii, Citrobacter genomospecies 10 and 11, Enterobacter gergoviae and Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae could grow fermentatively on glycerol and possessed both glycerol dehydrogenase type I (induced by glycerol and dihydroxyacetone) and 1,3-propanediol dehydrogenase which are typical enzymes of the anaerobic glycerol dissimilation pathway. Six other species, C. koseri, E. aerogenes, E. intermedium, K. oxytoca, K. planticola and K. terrigena could not grow fermentatively on glycerol and possessed a glycerol dehydrogenase type I but no 1,3-propanediol dehydrogenase. Other glycerol dehydrogenases types were found: type II (induced by glycerol and hydroxyacetone), type III (induced by glycerol only) and type IV (induced by hydroxyacetone only). They were widely distributed among the Enterobacteriaceae. Classification and identification may take advantage of tests exploring the dissimilation of glycerol.

Determination of halogenated mono-alcohols and diols in water by gas chromatography with electron-capture detection.

We have developed an analytical method for the detection of halogenated alcohols in water with particular focus on 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol and 3-bromo-1,2-propanediol. In this method the target analytes are extracted from water, derivatized with heptafluorobutyric anhydride, and then analyzed with gas chromatography with electron-capture detection. The effects of water, pH and seawater constituents on the method were investigated. Method detection limits for a 5 ml aqueous sample ranged from 0.14 microg l(-1) for 2-bromo-1,3-propanediol to 1.7 microg l(-1) for 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol (1,3DCP).

Alcohol-related diols cause acute insulin resistance in vivo.

Epidemiological studies suggest that alcohol consumption is an independent risk factor for the development of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Alcoholism is known to be associated with increased plasma levels of two novel diols, 2,3-butanediol and 1,2-propanediol, metabolites known to impair insulin action in isolated adipocytes. This study examines whether 2,3-butanediol and 1,2-propanediol have the capacity to impair insulin action acutely in vivo in the rat. Using the euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp, it is shown that the two diols reduce whole-body glucose utilization (by approximately 30%), with the onset of insulin resistance in vivo occurring at plasma concentrations of 2,3-butanediol (33 micromol/L) at least one order of magnitude (P < .001) lower than 1,2-propanediol (432 micromol/L). Tracer methodologies using [U-14C]glucose and 2-deoxy[1-(3)H]glucose indicate that the reduction in whole-body glucose utilization is accompanied by a reduction in glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis in the skeletal muscle and heart. The association between elevated plasma diol levels and insulin resistance demonstrated in this report raises the question of whether there is a link between the high plasma diol levels in alcohol abusers and their increased susceptibility to NIDDM.

Study of apoptosis in human lymphocytes by toxic substances implicated in toxic oil syndrome.

Toxic Oil Syndrome is a multisystemic disease that occurred in epidemic proportions in Spain in 1981 caused by the ingestion of rapeseed oil denatured with aniline. Several data implicate T cells in the pathogenesis of the disease. We evaluated the mechanisms of cytotoxicity in human lymphocytes of TOS-related products: aniline, 3-(N-phenylamino)-1,2-propanediol and its mono- and di-oleyl esters and eosinophilia myalgia-related product such as 3-(phenylamino)-L-alanine, which is chemically similar to 3-(N-phenylamino)-1,2-propanediol, and has been found in manufactured L-tryptophan. Our results show that only di-oleyl ester of 3-(N-phenylamino)-1,2-propanediol induces apoptosis in human lymphocytes, in a concentration and time-dependent way, confirmed by morphology, expression of phosphatidylserine in membrane and analysis of DNA degradation.

Biological monitoring of occupational exposure to 1-methoxy-2-propanol.

At the end of a workweek 23 silkscreen printers gave a urine sample for capillary gas chromatographic analysis for 1,2-propanediol. The mean concentration was 2.52 (S.D. 2.01) mmol mol creatinine(-1) (median=1.76, n=23). The urinary excretion of 1,2-propanediol was linearly dependent on the preceding 1-methoxy-2-propanol exposure measured in the worker's breathing zone [y=0.99+0.28x, n=23, r=0.67, where y is the urinary 1,2-propanediol concentration, in mmol mol creatinine(-1) and x is the concentration, in cm3 m(-3), of 1-methoxy-2-propanol (90.2%), 1-ethoxy-2-propyl acetate (5.8%), 1-methoxy-2-propyl acetate (2.1%) and 1-ethoxy-2-propanol (1.9%) in the air].

Felbamate-induced apoptosis of hematopoietic cells is mediated by redox-sensitive and redox-independent pathways.

Felbamate (FBM; 2-phenyl-1,3-propanediol dicarbamate) is an approved antiepileptic drug shown to be effective in a variety of seizure disorders refractory to other treatments. However, its use has been restricted because of association with occurrence of rare cases of aplastic anemia and hepatic failure. Since it was shown that FBM metabolism requires glutathione (GSH), we used two experimental protocols to determine if the effects of specific metabolites were sensitive to redox pathways. FBM and its metabolite W873 (2-phenyl-1,3-propanediol monocarbamate), at 0.1 mg/ml, induced increased apoptosis of bone marrow cells from B10.AKM mice as compared with B10.BR mice. Study of the effects of the drug on human promonocytic cell line U937 cells showed that FBM and the metabolite W2986 [2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3 propanediol dicarbamate], at higher concentrations (0.5 mg/ml), induced apoptosis in this cell line. We also observed that while FBM and its metabolites induced increased apoptosis of B cells with reduced intracellular GSH levels, addition of exogenous GSH decreased apoptosis induced by W873 but did not significantly affect apoptosis induced by FBM or W2986. Our results suggest that, at concentrations used during the present investigations, FBM metabolites induce apoptosis via redox-sensitive and redox-independent pathways.

Bis-pyrene-labeled oligonucleotides: sequence specificity of excimer and monomer fluorescence changes upon hybridization with DNA.

The design, synthesis, and properties of a new pyrene excimer-forming probe of DNA have been described. 2,2-(Aminomethyl)propanediol was converted by the reaction with 1-pyrenebutylic acid to bis-pyrene-modified propanediol as a fluorescent non-nucleosidic linker. The bis-pyrene-modified linker can be incorporated via phosphoramidite chemistry into the 5'-terminal or internal positions of oligonucleotides (ODNs). The terminally modified ODNs showed almost similar affinity for complementary DNA when compared with the corresponding unmodified ODNs. The duplexes containing the bis-pyrene in the main chain exhibited higher melting temperatures relative to the corresponding duplexes containing propanediol linker at the same position. The UV and CD spectral studies indicate that the stacking interactions between the pyrene and DNA bases occur in the internally modified duplex and do not in the terminally modified duplex. The bis-pyrene modified linker itself displays excimer (E at 480 nm) and monomer (M at 380 nm) emission in a quantum yield (QY) of 0.17 and the E/M intensity ratio of 15. Incorporation of this linker into the terminal or internal positions of ODNs reduced the QY (0.003-0.009) and the E/M ratio (0.3-0.8). While small changes in the QY and E/M ratio was obtained in binding of the internally labeled ODNs to DNA, up to 27-fold increase in the QY and 17-fold increase in the E/M ratio was observed upon hybridization of the terminally labeled ODNs with DNA. The excimer and monomer fluorescence changes were found to be sensitive to a mismatch base present in the target DNA. The bis-pyrene-modified ODNs thus provide a sequence-sepcific fluorescent probe of DNA.

Characterizing NAD-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase enzymes of Methylobacterium extorquens and strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa cv. Elsanta).

The methylotroph Methylobacterium extorquens (strain with CABI registration number IMI 369321), which has been isolated from strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa cv. Elsanta) callus cultures, was grown on a mixture of methanol (0.25% v/v) and 1,2-propanediol (0.75% v/v). The microbial biotransformation of 1,2-propanediol to 2-hydroxypropanal (lactaldehyde) was studied. The bacterial alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) enzymatic activities were assessed, and the optimum pH for ADH activity was found to be pH 6.0. Enzyme assays were carried out for both the bacterial and the strawberry extracts to define the best substrate specificity. For Methylobacterium extorquens, the best substrates were found to be methanol (Km = 0.78 mM) and 1,2-propanediol (Km = 15.84 mM), whereas for strawberries, 1-propanol (Km = 3.54 mM) and ethanol (Km = 6.66 mM) were the best substrates. A wide variety of metals as well as EDTA were shown to decrease the enzymatic activity. Furthermore, SDS-PAGE experiments showed molecular weights of 45.0 and 24.6 kDa for the alcohol dehydrogenases of Methylobacterium extorquens and Fragaria x ananassa, respectively.

Absolute configuration of glycerol derivatives. 4. Synthesis and pharmacological activity of chiral 2-alkylaminomethylbenzodioxans, competitive alpha-adrenergic antagonists.

The optical isomers of alpha-adrenergic receptor antagonists prosympal (2), piperoxan (3), and dibozane (4) were prepared by methods establishing the absolute configuration of each. (2S)-3(2'-Hydroxyphenoxy)-1,2-propanediol ditosylate (10) was prepared from (2R)-3-tosyloxy-1,2-propanediol acetonide (6). Intramolecular displacement afforded (2S)-tosyloxymethylbenzodioxan [(2R)-11]. Reaction of (2R)-11 with the appropriate amine (diethylamine, piperidine, or piperazine) afforded the 2S isomers of 2, 3, and 12, respectively. Reaction of (2S)-12 with (2R)-11 afforded the SS isomer of 4. Reaction of (2S)-3-benzyloxy-1,2-propanediol ditosylate (14) with catechol (NaOMe) afforded (2R)-benzyloxymethylbenzodioxan (15). Subjecting 15 to hydrogenolysis, tosylation, and displacement with the appropriate amine afforded 2R isomers of 2, 3, and 12. Reaction of (2R)-12 with (2S)-11 afforded (RR)-4. Reaction of (2R)-12 with (2R)-11 afforded meso-4. The S isomers were more effective antagonists to the alpha-adrenergic response of methoxamine-induced contraction of rabbit aortic strips by twofold in 2 and 18-19-fold in 3 and 4. meso-4 was as effective as the SS isomer of 4. The results are interpreted in terms of a similar conformational distribution of aminoalkyl, oxygen, and aromatic functional groups of the (S)-benzodioxans and (R)-epinephrine.

Stability and comparative metabolism of selected felbamate metabolites and postulated fluorofelbamate metabolites by postmitochondrial suspensions.

Evidence has been presented suggesting that a reactive metabolite, 2-phenylpropenal (ATPAL), may be responsible for the toxicities observed during therapy with the antiepileptic drug felbamate (FBM). Formation of ATPAL from its unstable immediate precursor, 3-carbamoyl-2-phenylpropionaldedhyde (CBMA) requires the loss of the hydrogen atom at position 2 in the propane chain, and it has been postulated that substitution of this atom with fluorine would prevent the formation of ATPAL. On the basis of this hypothesis, 2-fluoro-2-phenyl-1,3-propanediol dicarbamate (F-FBM) was synthesized and is presently undergoing drug development. To test this hypothesis, we compared the metabolism by human liver postmitochondrial suspensions (S9) in vitro of selected FBM and postulated F-FBM metabolites leading to formation of CBMA or 3-carbamoyl-2-fluoro-2-phenyl-propionaldehyde (F-CBMA). All S9 incubations included GSH as a trapping agent for any reactive metabolites formed. Our results indicated that, in phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, at 37 degrees C, the half-life for 4-hydroxy-5-phenyltetrahydro-1,3-oxazin-2-one (CCMF) was 2.8 and 3.6 h in the presence or absence of GSH, respectively; compared to 4-hydroxy-5-fluoro-5-phenyl-tetrahydro-1,3-oxazin-2-one (F-CCMF) which lost only 2.5% or 4.9% over 24 h under the same conditions. When incubated with S9 in the presence of the cofactor, NAD+, 2-phenyl-1,3-propanediol monocarbamate (MCF) was oxidized to CCMF which was further oxidized to 3-carbamoyl-2-phenylpropionic acid (CPPA). 2-Fluoro-2-phenyl-1,3-propanediol monocarbamate (F-MCF) under similar conditions was stable, and no metabolites were observed. When CCMF was incubated with S9 in the presence of NAD+ cofactor, oxidation to CPPA and reduction to MCF were observed. In addition, a new atropic acid GSH adduct (ATPA-GSH) was identified by mass spectrometry. When F-CCMF was incubated under the same conditions as CCMF, both reduced and oxidized metabolites, F-MCF and 3-carbamoyl-2-fluoro-2-phenylpropionic acid (F-CPPA), respectively, were formed but at significantly lower rates, and no GSH conjugates were identified. Our results support the hypothesis that F-FBM and F-CCMF are not metabolized by S9 in vitro to the known reactive FBM metabolite, ATPAL.
