Monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) inhibition represents a potential treatment strategy for γ-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) overdose by blocking its renal reabsorption in the kidney. This study further evaluated the effects of a novel, highly potent MCT inhibitor, AR-C155858, on GHB toxicokinetics/toxicodynamics (TK/TD).
Rats were administered GHB (200, 600 or 1500 mg/kg i.v. or 1500 mg/kg po) with and without AR-C155858. Breathing frequency was continuously monitored using whole-body plethysmography. Plasma and urine samples were collected up to 8 h. The effect of AR-C155858 on GHB brain/plasma partitioning was also assessed.
AR-C155858 treatment significantly increased GHB renal and total clearance after intravenous GHB administration at all the GHB doses used in this study. GHB-induced respiratory depression was significantly improved by AR-C155858 as demonstrated by an improvement in the respiratory rate. AR-C155858 treatment also resulted in a significant reduction in brain/plasma partitioning of GHB (0.1 ± 0.03) when compared to GHB alone (0.25 ± 0.02). GHB CLR and CLoral (CL/F) following oral administration were also significantly increased following AR-C155858 treatment (from 1.82 ± 0.63 to 5.74 ± 0.86 and 6.52 ± 0.88 to 10.2 ± 0.75 ml/min/kg, respectively).
The novel and highly potent MCT inhibitor represents a potential treatment option for GHB overdose.
单羧酸转运体(MCT)抑制是一种潜在的治疗策略,可通过阻断γ-羟基丁酸(GHB)在肾脏的重吸收来治疗GHB过量中毒。本研究进一步评估了新型高效MCT抑制剂AR-C155858对GHB毒代动力学/毒效动力学(TK/TD)的影响。
给大鼠静脉注射或口服GHB(200、600或1500mg/kg),同时给予或不给予AR-C155858。使用全身体积描记法连续监测呼吸频率。采集血浆和尿液样本长达8小时。还评估了AR-C155858对GHB脑/血浆分配的影响。
在本研究使用的所有GHB剂量下,静脉注射GHB后,AR-C155858治疗显著增加了GHB的肾脏清除率和总清除率。AR-C155858显著改善了GHB诱导的呼吸抑制,表现为呼吸频率的改善。与单独使用GHB相比(0.25±0.02),AR-C155858治疗还导致GHB的脑/血浆分配显著降低(0.1±0.03)。口服给药后,AR-C155858治疗后GHB的肾清除率(CLR)和口服清除率(CL/F)也显著增加(分别从1.82±0.63增至5.74±0.86以及从6.52±0.88增至10.2±0.75ml/min/kg)。
这种新型高效的MCT抑制剂是治疗GHB过量中毒的一种潜在选择。
