    Diuretic effect and disposition of furosemide in cystic fibrosis (1991)

    Notes: Summary The pharmacodynamics and kinetics of single oral and intravenous doses of furosemide were studied in 9 patients (mean age 18.5 y) with cystic fibrosis. The diuretic effect of furosemide lasted for 6 h after oral administration and 2 h following intravenous injection of the drug. The patients with cystic fibrosis had a more pronounced diuretic response both to the oral and intravenous treatments than that reported in normals. Furosemide caused a marked decrease in urine pH for 5 h following the oral dose and between the 2nd and 3rd h after i.v. injection. The baseline nocturnal urine flow rate in 7 of the 9 patients given furosemide orally was increased by 30.6% compared to that reported in healthy subjects. The bioavailability of furosemide, its mean absorption rate and the mean plasma and urinary elimination half-lives both of the oral and the intravenous drug were similar to those reported in normal subjects. The patients with cystic fibrosis showed, however, about double normal mean total clearance after both the oral and i.v. treatments, and its renal clearance was almost half the plasma clearance. Nonrenal clearance was markedly increased in the patients, which agreed with a considerable decrease in the renal excretion of the drug. The mean apparent volume of distribution was also markedly increased compared to data in the literature. Oral furosemide resulted in a moderate increase in haematocrit and haemoglobin levels in 7 of 9 patients with cystic fibrosis and marked hypokalemia developed in 6 of the 9 patients 6 h after dosing. Pulmonary function tests performed at that time were changed in an inconsistent manner. The sweat test was significantly perturbed in those subjects, although the concentration of chloride in sweat did not fall below 60 mEq/l in any of the sweat samples tested.

    Dosage regimen of cimetidine reviewed. Possible drug accumulation after multiple oral doses (1988)
    Springer

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The doses of cimetidine recommended differ in children, especially those with cystic fibrosis. These dosage regimens were derived from single-dose pharmacokinetic studies of the drug. Some authors showed, however, that after administration of repeated oral doses of cimetidine in healthy adults and children with cystic fibrosis, the elimination half-life of the drug was markedly prolonged. In view of the ability of cimetidine to inhibit metabolism of other drugs, it is suggested that the parent compound and/or its metabolite(s) may inhibit its own metabolism during a prolonged course of treatment. Enterohepatic recirculation of the drug and/or its metabolite(s) may also contribute to prolongation of its elimination. One should therefore be cautious in using single-dose pharmacokinetic parameters to calculate repeated dose regimens and expected plasma steady-state concentrations.

    Notes: Abstract. External muscle and myenteric plexus from the small intestine of adult guinea-pigs were maintained in vitro for 3 or 6 days. Myenteric neurons and smooth muscle cells from such organotypic cultures were examined at the electron-microscopic level. An intact basal lamina was found around the myenteric ganglia and internodal strands. Neuronal membranes, nuclei and subcellular organelles appeared to be well preserved in cultured tissues and ribosomes were abundant. Dogiel type-II neurons were distinguishable by their elongated electron-dense mitochondria, numerous lysosomes and high densities of ribosomes. Vesiculated nerve profiles contained combinations of differently shaped vesicles. Synaptic membrane specializations were found between vesiculated nerve profiles and nerve processes and cell bodies. The majority of nerve fibres were well preserved in the myenteric ganglia, in internodal strands and in bundles running between circular muscle cells. No detectable changes were found in the ultrastructure of the somata and processes of glial cells. Longitudinal and circular muscle cells from cultured tissue had clearly defined membranes with some close associations with neighbouring muscle cells. Caveolae occurred in rows that ran parallel to the long axis of the muscle cells. These results indicate that the ultrastructural features of enteric neurons and smooth muscle of the guinea-pig small intestine are well preserved in organotypic culture.

    Notes: Summary Antisera to neuropeptide Y (NPY) gave an intense immunohistochemical reaction of certain nerve cells in the myenteric and submucous plexuses of the guinea-pig small intestine. Each nerve cell had up to 20 branching, tapering processes that were less than ∼50 μm long and a long process that could be followed for a considerable distance. This morphology corresponds to that of the type-III cells of Dogiel. The long process of each myenteric cell ran through the circular muscle to the submucosa, and in most cases the process could be traced to the mucosa. The submucous nerve cell bodies also had processes that extended to the mucosa. These cell bodies, in both plexuses, also stained with antisera raised against calcitonin generelated peptide (CGRP), cholecystokinin (CCK), choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and somatostatin (SOM), but did not stain with antibodies against enkephalin, substance P or vasoactive intestinal peptide. Thus, it has been possible for the first time to trace the processes of chemically specified neurons through the layers of the intestinal wall and to show by a direct method that CGRP/CCK/ChAT/NPY/ SOM myenteric and submucous nerves cells provide terminals in the mucosa.

    Notes: Summary A quantitative ultrastructural study was made of the neuntes forming the deep muscular and circular muscle plexuses of the guinea-pig small intestine following microsurgical lesions designed to interrupt intrinsic and extrinsic nerve pathways within the intestinal wall. Removal of a collar of longitudinal muscle with attached myenteric plexus from the circumference of a segment of small intestine resulted in the subsequent disappearance of 99.3% of neurites in the underlying circular muscle. The few surviving neurites in the deep muscular plexus and circular muscle disappeared completely from lesioned segments that were, in addition, extrinsically denervated surgically. These results indicate that the majority of nerve fibres in the deep muscular and circular muscle plexuses of the guinea-pig small intestine is intrinsic to the intestine and originates from nerve cell bodies located in the overlying myenteric plexus. At the light-microscopic level, nerve bundles were traced from the myenteric plexus to the circular muscle.

    Notes: Abstract The tertiary component of the myenteric plexus consists of interlacing fine nerve fibre bundles that run between its principal ganglia and connecting nerve strands. It was revealed by zinc iodide-osmium impregnation and substance P immunohistochemistry at the light-microscope level. The plexus was situated against the inner face of the longitudinal muscle and was present along the length of the small intestine at a density that did not vary markedly from proximal to distal. Nerve bundles did not appear to be present in the longitudinal muscle as judged by light microscopy, although numberous fibre bundles were encountered within the circular muscle layer. At the ultrastructural level, nerve fibre bundles of the tertiary plexus were found in grooves formed by the innermost layer of longitudinal smooth muscle cells. In the distal parts of the small intestine, some of these nerve fibre bundles occasionally penetrated the longitudinal muscle coat. Vesiculated profiles in nerve fibre bundles of the tertiary plexus contained variable proportions of small clear and large granular vesicles; they often approached to within 50–200 nm of the longitudinal smooth muscle cells. Fibroblast-like cells lay between strands of the tertiary plexus and the circular muscle but were never intercalated between nerve fibre varicosities and the longitudinal muscle. These anatomical relationships are consistent with the tertiary plexus being the major site of neurotransmission to the longitudinal muscle of the guinea-pig small intestine.

    Studies in ring-opening polymerization. IV. Thermal polymerization of phenyl-substituted 1,3-dioxolan-2,4-diones (1976)

    Notes: The effect of C-5 phenyl substituents on the thermal decomposition of the 1,3-dioxolan-2,4-dione ring has been examined. Unlike the dimethyl-substituted ring, 5-methyl-5-phenyl-1,3-dioxolan-2,4-dione decomposes smoothly in dry nonhydroxylic solvents to yield polymer and carbon dioxide. The introduction of a second C-5 phenyl substituent produces a similar but more rapid decomposition, with the added complication of a competing ring fragmentation leading to ketone formation. An analogy is drawn between the observed behavior of the phenyl-substituted 1,3-dioxolan-2,4-diones and that of the previously studied 1,3,2-dioxanthiolan-4-one 2-oxides. These monomers therefore provide another example of the thermal polymerisation mechanism first observed with 5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxathiolan-4-one 2-oxides. In these reactions the rate-determining step is the first-order ring-scission process leading to the formation of an α-lactone intermediate. This intermediate then takes part in a very rapid chain-growth process which governs the characteristics of the polymer formed.

    Notes: The reaction of C(5) phenyl-substituted 1,3-dioxolan-2,4-diones with a series of alcohols has been studied in order to obtain quantitative information relating to the role of hydroxyl initiation in the polymerization of these compounds. Results relating to both the effect of C(5) substitution and the structure of the attacking alcohol are presented. The reactions are secondorder (first-order with respect to each component) and show some of the kinetic features associated with monosubstituted 1,3,2-dioxathiolan-4-one-2-oxides. Structural effects are adequately represented in terms of Taft σ* and Es substituent constants. Of the parameters describing the properties of the reaction medium, the donicity concept was found to give the best correlation with rate data. It is considered that hydroxyl initiation will contribute to a relatively small extent in the polymerization of 5,5-diphenyl-1,3-dioxolan-2,4-dione and 5-methyl, 5-phenyl-1,3-dioxolan-2,4-dione but will form the basis for the major chain-growth process in 5-phenyl-1,3-dioxolan-2,4-dione.
