    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics and metabolism of mepivacaine has been studied in premature neonates dosed subcutaneously and in healthy adults dosed intravenously. The pharmacokinetics of mepivacaine in four neonates (N) was compared with that in six adults (A). Newborns had a significantly longer terminal phase half-life than adults (N mean 8.69 h; A mean 3.17 h). Total plasma clearance normalized on body weight was significantly smaller in neonates (mean 2.34 ml/min/kg) than in adults (mean 5.47 ml/min/kg), as was the hepatic blood clearance (N mean 1.37 ml/min/kg; A mean 5.10 ml/min/kg). The renal plasma clearance, however, was significantly greater in neonates (mean 0.76 ml/min/kg) than adults (mean 0.20 ml/min/kg). There was an average six-fold increase in the fraction of the dose excreted unchanged in newborns (mean 43.3%) compared to adults (mean 7.1%) with acidified urine (pH 5.5–6.0). There was significantly more of the mono-N-demethylated metabolite of mepivacaine excreted by newborns (mean 11.4%) than by adults (mean 2.2%), but their capacity to carry out aromatic hydroxylation of mepivacaine was negligible. These results for mepivacaine were compared with those previously reported for lignocaine in premature infants. The immaturity of hepatic function appears to have diminished more profoundly the ability of premature infants to metabolize mepivacaine than lignocaine. These findings are discussed in terms of perfusion theory of hepatic drug elimination.

    Notes: Summary The urinary elimination of etidocaine and several of its metabolites was investigated in neonates whose mothers had received one or more doses of etidocaine during labour. The urine collection period ranged among the neonates from 21.4 to 47.0 h post-partum. The total amounts of etidocaine and its metabolites recovered in neonatal urine represented a mean of 0.12 per cent of the maternal dose. Some differences in the pattern of urinary metabolites were observed between neonates and adults. Mean half-life of elimination of etidocaine calculated from sigma-minus plots of the neonatal urinary data was 6.42 h. This is greater than that previously reported following intravenous administration of etidocaine to adults (2.6 h). The slower rate of elimination in neonates is probably due to an increased neonatal volume of distribution since there is evidence to show that etidocaine is extensively metabolised by the neonate.

    Notes: Early passage mouse embryo fibroblasts, mouse 3T3 cell lines, and early passage diploid human fibroblasts grew to higher cell densities in tissue culture medium supplemented with serum than in medium supplemented with defibrinogenated platelet-poor plasma (PPP). Unlike the mouse cells, the human fibroblasts displayed this differential growth response only in the presence of hypophysiologic concentrations of calcium. The addition of heat-treated extracts of human platelets to PPP-supplemented medium stimulated the replication of both the normal mouse cells and early passage human embryo fibroblasts.Human or mouse fibroblasts transformed by either retroviruses or by SV40, including SV40 infected “serum revertants” and “flat transformants,” grew to equal cell densities in medium supplemented with either serum or PPP. Infection of Balb/c-3T3 cells with SV40 rapidly induced them to grow in PPP-supplemented medium demonstrating that the ability of SV40-transformed cell lines to proliferate in PPP-supplemented medium does not arise from the cell culture selection procedures usually employed to obtain stable virus-transformed cell lines. 3T3 cells infected but not transformed by retroviruses do not replicate in PPP-supplemented medium demonstrating that reduction of the growth requirement for the platelet growth factor(s) by retroviruses is a transformation-specific response. Cell cultures that did not proliferate well in PPP-supplemented medium did not form tumors when inoculated into athymic nude mice. Many, although not all, of the lines which grew well in PPP medium were tumorigenic in nude mice. Together, these findings indicate that: (1) normal fibroblast-like cells display a growth requirement for factor(s) present in serum but not found in PPP; (2) this serum specific growth factor is derived from platelets; (3) a primary response to viral transforming genes is a reduction in the growth requirement for these platelet-derived factors; and (4) cells that have a reduced requirement for the platelet-derived growth factor are often tumorigenic.

    Notes: The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of trans-1,2-dicyanocyclobutane, which yields only vinyl cyanide, have been studied in the temperature range of 570°-660°K using a stirred-flow reactor. The reaction was found to be first order and homogeneous with rate constants represented by the Arrhenius equation \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ {\rm log}k{\rm (sec}^{- 1} {\rm) =}{{{\rm (16}{\rm .0} \pm {\rm 0}{\rm .3)} - {\rm (52}{\rm .9} \pm {\rm 0}{\rm .8)}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{{\rm (16}{\rm .0} \pm {\rm 0}{\rm .3)} - {\rm (52}{\rm .9} \pm {\rm 0}{\rm .8)}} \theta}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} \theta} $$\end{document} where θ = 2.303 RT kcal/mol. The Arrhenius parameters are considerably higher than previously reported. On the assumption of a biradical mechanism the results are consistent with a cyano stabilization energy of ∼5 kcal/mol, in good agreement with the results of recent studies of related systems.

    Notes: Summary Plasma concentrations and bioavailability of clofibrinic acid have been estimated under conditions approaching the steady-state during a ten-day period of administration as clofibrate or as a calcium clofibrinate-carbonate combination (1:1 w/w) at a dosage interval of 12 h. Formulation — related differences in bioavailability were not significant, and the 95% confidence limits of these differences were within −2% to +8% of the mean for the reference formulation of clofibrate. The mean steadystate plasma concentrations of clofibrinic acid measured on the tenth day of dosing were 116 µg/ml±22 S.D. and 119 µg/ml±23 S.D. after administration of 885 mg as clofibrate and the calcium clofibrinate-carbonate combination respectively. The peaks of mean plasma concentrations were 70 µg/ml±15 S.D., 119 µg/ml±32 S.D. and 131 µg/ml±26 S.D. on the first, fifth and tenth day of dosing with clofibrate, and 62 µg/ml±13 S.D., 127 µg/ml±S.D. and 143 µg/ml±25 S.D. on the corresponding days of dosing with the calcium clofibrinate-carbonate combination. After the last dose on the tenth day of dosing, the mean apparent half-lives of elimination of clofibrinic acid from plasma were 24.2 h±4.4 S.D. and 25.5 h±3.2 S.D. after administration of clofibrate and the calcium clofibrinate-carbonate combination respectively.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of intravenous high-dose methotrexate were studied in two groups of children being treated for malignant diseases, mostly acute lymphatic leukemia. The peak serum level of methotrexate of 2.32·10−5 mol/l was found in children given 500 mg methotrexate/m2 by a 24 h infusion, and another group given 2790 mg/m2 during a 6 h infusion had serum levels as high as 2.16·10−4 mol/l. The decay of serum concentration of methotrexate after completion of the infusion followed a diphasic curve, with an initial serum half-life of 4.8 h, followed by a second half-life of 34.4 h at distribution equilibrium. The apparent volume of distribution was 56.8 litres/m2. Significant levels of methotrexate were found in cerebrospinal fluid, but penetration into cerebrospinal fluid was slow. Urinary excretion of methotrexate was considerable. Four to five days after commencement of the infusion, urinary concentrations of methotrexate still exceeded the serum levels.

    Notes: Summary Plasma theophylline concentrations have been measured in 9 patients with chronic obstructive airways disease following the oral administration of a microcrystalline theophylline preparation. Some measurements of FEV1 were also made. Four patients were given 375 mg as a single dose and then subsequently 375 mg stat and 125 mg 4 times daily for 3 days, (Group I). A further 5 patients took 250 mg as a single dose and then 250 mg 4 times daily for 3 days, (Group II). In both groups, following the single dose and again after the last dose of chronic administration, blood samples were obtained at frequent intervals up to 24 h for plasma drug estimation. During the 3-day course, blood samples were drawn before and 2 h after each morning dose. In Group I patients, substantial plasma theophylline concentrations were seen only after the loading dose. Thereafter, the mean concentrations before or 2 h after the morning doese were always less than 4.0 µg/ml. Trough concentrations were usually below 2.0 µg/ml. In contrast patients in Group II achieved substantially higher plasma theophylline concentrations, with mean peak concentrations always 10 µg/ml or greater, and trough concentrations greater than 5 µg/ml on at least one occasion in every subject. The elimination half-lives after chronic administration in both groups were not significantly different from those obtained after single doses. Mean drug accumulation, measured as AUCss/AUC1, was 0.87±0.07 in Group I and 0.72±0.14 in Group II, indicating that accumulation had not occurred with either regimen. The mean increase in FEV1 2 h after the administration of a single dose was 19.2% after 375 mg and 16.7% after 250 mg. These results indicate that the recommended dosage regimen for microcrystalline theophylline preparation (375 mg stat and 125 mg 4 times daily) produces inadequate plasma theophylline concentrations: 250 mg 4 times daily would appear to be likely to result in satisfactory theophylline levels in more patients.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of paracetamol after intravenous and oral administration has been studied in 6 patients with Gilbert's syndrome, and 6 healthy controls. Paracetamol clearance was significantly less in the patients (255 ml/min SE±23 ml/min) than in the normal subjects (352 ml/min SE±40 ml/min). Moreover, whilst paracetamol concentrations declined monoexponentially in the patients, the decline was biexponential in the controls. No difference in the bioavailability of 500 mg paracetamol given orally was observed between the two groups. The results suggest that not only is paracetamol elimination impaired in Gilbert's syndrome, but that its distribution kinetics are also abnormal. Both these findings could be attributed to a decrease in hepatic glucuronyl transferase activity.

    Notes: Summary An ordinary and a sustained-release lithium carbonate preparation were administered acutely at equivalent dosage (1.80 g=24.3 mmol) in a crossover fashion to manic patients. Serum lithium levels were determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated. Maximum mean serum levels of 1.13 mmol/l and 0.78 mmol/l were achieved at 6 h and 12 h respectively with the ordinary and sustained-release forms. The mean half-lives of absorption, redistribution and elimination were 0.78 h±0.05 (SE), 5.06 h±0.23, 26.8 h±4.5 and 3.73 h±0.37 (SE), 4.42 h±0.28 and 25.6 h±5.5 for the ordinary and sustained-release forms respectively. In healthy volunteers the ordinary preparation was completely absorbed but only 85% of the sustained-release form was absorbed in the manic subjects. Lithium ion distributed into two kinetic compartments and the final compartment appeared to correspond to total body water.
