A highly sensitive fluorometric assay for the determination of monooxygenase activity in liver microsomes is described. The assay is based on the use of 3-chloro-7-methoxy-4-methylcoumarin which is demethylated to 3-chloro-7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin. The rate of formation of 3-chloro-7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin was recorded as an increase of fluorescence (λA = 380 nm, λF = 480 nm ) with time. When 3-chloro-7-methoxy-4-methylcoumarin was incubated in the presence of MgCl2and NADPH with rat liver microsomes, a continuous increase of the fluorescence could be measured. The reaction proceeded linearly for about 10 min and at least up to a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml of microsomal protein. Besides 3-chloro-7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin a hydroxylated derivative of the substrate was formed as a second metabolite during the incubation. Using an excitation wavelength of 480 nm and a fluorescence/em ission w avelength of 480 nm, the fluorescence of this substance (λA = 338 nm, λF = 422 nm ) amounted only to about 1% of the fluorescence of the main product. The use of 3-chloro-7-methoxy-4-methylcoumarin as substrate enables the fluorometric determination of the O-dealkylation activity of a cytochrom e P450-dependent monooxygenase system in rat liver which is inducible by phenobarbital but not by 3-methylcholanthrene.

Summary. The pathogenesis of fluoride intoxication at the molecular, cellular and functional levels has not been sufficiently studied. There are very few modern data on these issues, so they are contradictory, since the effects of this trace element are multifaceted and cannot be characterized unambiguously. The aim of the study – to learn the state of the monooxygenase system of rat hepatocytes under conditions of the formation of fluoride intoxication. Materials and Methods. In the experiment, we used 30 sexually mature rats (N=30) of the Wistar population weighing 200–210 g for 1.5 months. Sodium fluoride solution was administered orally at doses of 1/10 DL50, which was 20 mg/kg of animal body weight. Results. The results of experiments on the study of oxygen consumption by rat liver microsomes under fluoride intoxication indicated that the rate of endogenous respiration of microsomes, the rate of NADPH oxidation, the rate of NADH oxidation in the presence of EDTA, and the rate of lipid peroxidation increase under the influence of fluorides. Sodium fluoride stimulated an increase in all parameters of microsomal oxidation, except for cytochrome b5. It should be assumed that in this case there is an increase in the generation of reactive oxygen species, free radicals, which stimulate the development of free radical processes in the body and are, most likely, the leading link in oxidative stress. Conclusions. These changes indicate a violation of the bioenergetics of hepatocytes associated with the mitochondrial apparatus and the development of hypoxic processes, which lead to a decrease in the activity of redox reactions occurring at the level of intracellular membranes and organelles.

The administration of Xiao-Chaihu- Tang (TJ-9) for 2 weeks induced a 25% increase in the content of cytochrome P-450 in female rat liver microsomes, while the content in male rats remained unchanged. The enzymatic activities toward various xenobiotics were stimulated in female rats, the levels being in the range of 125-250% of those in the control rats. Among these xenobiotics, the metabolic rates for substrates of cytochrome P-450 2El were significantly enhanced in female rats. On the other hand, the activities toward various xenobiotics in male rats were unchanged. When 3-methylcholanthrene was given to rats for a week, the augmentation of cytochrome P-450 content and the stimulation ofxenobiotic metabolism were observed. However, co-administration ofTJ-9 did not alter the effect of 3-methylcholanthrene described above.

Objectives: Triptolide (TPL) has been shown to have a good clinical effect on rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We designed TPL microspheres (TPL-MS) and investigated its metabolic behavior in human, dog, rabbit and rat liver microsomes (HLM, DLM, RLM and SDRLM) with UPLC-MS/MS method. Methods: First, a UPLC-MS/MS method was established to measure concentration of TPL in samples. The sample was separated on a C18 column (2.1×100 mm, 1.8μm) and eluted with a gradient elution. The precursor ion/product ion were m/z 378.1/361.0 for TPL and 260.0/116.2 for the internal standard. Then T1/2, Vmax and CLint were calculated from the above data. Finally, the metabolites of TPL-MS were identified by high-resolution UPLC-MS/MS. The sample was separated on a C18 column (2.1×100 mm, 2.2 μm) and eluted with isocratic elution. Mass spectrometric detection was carried out on a thermo Q-exactive mass spectrometer with HESI. The scanning range of precursor ions was from m/z 50 to m/z 750. Result and Discussion: Through several indicators including standard curve, precision, accuracy, stability, matrix effect and recovery rate, the enzymatic kinetics parameters including T1/2, Vmax and CLint were completed. Several metabolites of TPL-MS were identified. Conclusion: UPLC-MS/MS method is an accurate and sensitive method for determination of TPL in liver microsome samples with good precision, accuracy and stability. The variation of parameters indicated that the microspheres can delay the elimination of TPL in liver microsomes. The metabolism of TPL-MS varied among species, but no new metabolites appeared.
