Toxicodynamics Wat does the compound do to the body? 3 3 Toxicokinetics: fate of a compound after exposure ADME Absorption Distribution Metabolism Excretion Klaassen, 2008 Casarett & Doull’s Toxicology 7th edition 4 4 2 6/6/2024 Setup Toxicokinetics - ADME Absorption = Uptake GI tract Lung Distribution Metabolism = Biotransformation Excretion 5 5 Absorption after oral intake Enterohepatic circulation Repeat of absorption, conjugation (=metabolism), elimination, deconjugation, absorption, etc. Presystemic elimination Elimination before systemic distribution can take place. Portal vein 6 6 3 6/6/2024 Absorption after intake by inhalation: gasses Source: Patterns in Assistive Technology Training and Services http://webschoolsolutions.com/patts/systems/heart.htm 7 7 Absorption of gasses in the lungs Alveoli cavity Ibrahim & Garcia-Contreras, 2013 Therapeutic Delivery 4: 8 Can be very fast (ether) Depending on air:water partitioning constant (Henry coefficient = pair / Cwater) 8 8 4 6/6/2024 Absorption of inhaled particles 5-30µm 1-5µm Cigarette smoke contains 0.16 µg per cigarette 0.3 x 25 x 0.16 = 1.2 µg/day > 25 cigarettes per day Outdoor air 0.3 x 20 x 0.002 = 0.012 µg/day > 0.002 µg per m3 > 20 m3 per day Food 0.06 x 0.6 x 50 = 1.8 µg/day > 50 µg per kg > 600 g per day Drinking water 0.06 x 2 x 1 = 0.12 µg/day > 1 µg/l > 2 l per dag + 3.312 µg/day 11 11 Setup Toxicokinetics - ADME Absorption = Uptake Distribution Accumulation Barriers Metabolism = Biotransformation Excretion 12 12 6 6/6/2024 Accumulation in tissue other than target e.g. lipophilic compounds Lipophilic = Fat-loving, for example PCB Cl Cl Accumulate in fat tissue Cl Cl Excretion Cl Cl Slowly through blood → urine Quickly through breastmilk 13 13 Loosing weight increases bioavailability of lipophilic compounds! 14 14 7 6/6/2024 Accumulation Lipophilic compounds (high Kow) in fat tissue Released during fat mobilization, e.g. loosing weight Risk in case of small fat deposits (foetus, infant) Pb++, Sr++ and F- in bones Exchange with Ca++ or OH- Has effect (Sr++ and F-) or no effect (Pb++) on bones Released during Ca-mobilization Cadmium in liver and kidneys Efficient binding to metallothionein Cd-MT complex itself is also nephrotoxic 15 15 Accumulation (in summary) Selective binding or uptake into specific tissues Sometimes in an “accumulation organ” (POPs) Sometimes in the “target organ” (Sr++ and F-) Accumulation In most cases not biologically available, i.e. not toxic Can be mobilized from deposit Dynamic equilibrium with concentration in blood 16 16 8 6/6/2024 Barriers in distribution Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) Placenta 17 17 Blood-brain barrier Endothelial cells tight junctions efflux by transporter proteins > multidrug resistant proteins (mdr) > multiresistant drug proteins (mrd) No pinocytosis Biotransformation capacity Astrocytes (gliacells) Physical support Efflux by transporter proteins? Biotransformation capacity? Exceptions, e.g. methylmercury (MeHg+) 18 18 9 6/6/2024 Minamata, Japan 1956 (MeHg) 19 19 Placenta No a true “barrier” Many lipophilic compounds diffuse through the placenta! Defense by Active transport (mdr and oct proteins) Biotransformation capacity 20 20 10 6/6/2024 Setup Toxicokinetics - ADME Absorption = Uptake Distribution Metabolism = Biotransformation Phase I, II, III Bioactivation Enzyme properties Excretion 21 21 Sleeping Beauty Blood levels of a sleeping pill agent in time 22 22 11 6/6/2024 What is metabolism? Biotransformation = Biochemical transformation AFTER uptake GOAL (in case of toxic compounds): Accelerated excretion Detoxification SIDE EFFECT Bioactivation = activation of compounds into more toxic compounds 23 23 Process of biotransformation Three phases: I. Hydrolysis/reduction/oxidation to create a reactive “handle” to the compound (-OH), (=O); (-COOH) II. Conjugation, coupling of a water soluble molecule to the handle of the compound III. Elimination/excretion: removal of the conjugated product from the body 24 24 12 6/6/2024 Phases in the biotransformation XENOBIOTIC Hydrophilic Polar Lipophilic Very lipophilic and persistent SEQUESTRATION storage in fat tissue PHASE I Oxidation, reduction or hydrolysis PHASE II Conjugation to water soluble molecule PHASE III Extracellular mobilization Excretion via bile Renal excretion 25 25 Phase I reactions Oxidation Oxygen as electron acceptor (oxygenases and oxydases) NAD(P)+ as electron acceptor Hydrolysis (breaking of the bond by H2O) Reduction 26 26 13 6/6/2024 Biotransformation: example of a Phase I reaction OH CYP1A1 pyrene 1-OH-pyrene Oxidation of pyrene into 1-OH-pyrene 27 27 Phase I Oxidation Oxygen as electron acceptor (= oxidant) Oxygenase (incorporating oxygen from O2 in substrate) E.g. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) E.g. Flavin monooxygenase (FMO) 28 28 14 6/6/2024 29 29 Examples of CYP mediated reactions Hydroxylation Epoxidation Dealkylation 30 30 15 6/6/2024 Negative effect of biotransformation Product of phase I may be very reactive bio-activation Reacts with macromolecule before it can be detoxified in phase II Upon reaction with DNA: chemical mutagenesis Basis for carcinogenicity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, vinyl chloride etc. Model chemical: benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) 31 31 Three metabolite types formed upon biotransformation of BaP Diol-epoxides Phenols Casarett & Doull’s Toxicology Quinones 32 32 16 6/6/2024 DNA adduct of benzo(a)pyrene-diol epoxide Local disturbtion in DNA double helix structure Hampering proper DNA replication leads to a change in nucleotide order in the DNA chain, inherited by daughter cells (mutation) 33 33 Phase II Conjugation Examples of groups that can be conjugated to reactive Phase I metabolites: Glutathion by glutathion-S-transferase (GST) Glucuronic acid by uridine difosfaat glucuronyl transferase (UGT) Methylgroup by methyltransferase (COMT, NMT) Sulfate group by sulfotransferase (SULT) 34 34 17 6/6/2024 Co-substrate and conjugating group (Phase II) The group that ultimately conjugates to the reactive Phase I metabolite is shown in blue, except for glutathione, where the whole tripeptide is conjugated 35 35 Phase II Most important conjugations Type Enzyme Co-substrate Glucuronidation UGT UDPGA Sulfonation SULT PAPS Glutathione coupling GST glutathione Methylation MT SAM 36 36 18 6/6/2024 From Phase I to Phase II Phase I Phase II 37 37 Phase II: Conjugation of paracetamol (acetaminophen) 40-60% 20-40%
