Abstract Background and Aims Extracellular nucleotides (ATP, ADP, UTP, UDP) acting through P2-receptors regulate renal vascular tone and glomerular permeability tor albumin. Both phenomenons are dysregulated in diabetes and are conducive to development of diabetic nephropathy. The aim of study was to investigate the urinary excretion of adenylate and uridynate nucleotides and the effects of suramin, P2-receptors antagonist and non-competitive inhibitor of ectoATPase, on those parameters in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Method Diabetes in Wistar rats was induced by streptozotocin injection (65 mg/kg, i.p, day 0) and suramin was injected (10 mg/kg, i.p) on day 7 and 14. Nucleotides concentration in urine collected in metabolic cages on day 21 (3-weeks diabetes) were measured using HPLC method wit UV detector. All values are expressed as mean ± SEM. Results The excretion of ATP, UTP, ADP and UDP in diabetes were increased i.e. ATP: 34.99±1.73 vs 18.56±1.59 μmol/24h (p<0.001); UTP: 0,72±0.06 vs 0.47±0,08 vs μmol/24h (p=0.03); ADP: 0,70±0.56 vs 0.28±0,04 vs μmol/24h (p=0.001); UDP: 9.08±1.28 vs 5.06±0,83 vs μmol/24h (p=0.02). UMP excretion was decreased 7.04±0.89 vs 11.36±0,621 μmol/24h (p=0.002) but AMP excretion was not affected by diabetes i.e. 0.86±0.09 vs 0.89±0.12 μmol/24h (p=0.08). Suramin administration did not affect urinary excretion of investigated nucleotides. Conclusion diabetes increases the urinary excretion of ATP, ADP, UTP and UDP and this effect is not modified by suramin. The changes in extracellular metabolism of nucleotides may affect the renal function during diabetes. This work was supported by National Science Centre Poland Grant (2016/23/B/NZ5/02632) to MJ.

Abstract Background A new, sensitive, suitable, clear, accurate, and robust reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the determination of brexpiprazole in bulk drug and tablet formulation was developed and validated in this research. Surface methodology was used to optimize the data, with a three-level Box-Behnken design. Methanol concentration in the mobile phase, flow rate, and pH were chosen as the three variables. The separation was performed using an HPLC method with a UV detector and Openlab EZchrom program, as well as a Water spherisorb C18 column (100 mm × 4.6; 5m). Acetonitrile was pumped at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min with a 10 mM phosphate buffer balanced to a pH of 2.50.05 by diluted OPA (65:35% v/v) and detected at 216 nm. Result The developed RP-HPLC method yielded a suitable retention time for brexpiprazole of 4.22 min, which was optimized using the Design Expert-12 software. The linearity of the established method was verified with a correlation coefficient (r2) of 0.999 over the concentration range of 5.05–75.75 g/mL. For API and formulation, the percent assay was 99.46% and 100.91%, respectively. The percentage RSD for the method’s precision was found to be less than 2.0%. The percentage recoveries were discovered to be between 99.38 and 101.07%. 0.64 μg/mL and 1.95 μg/mL were found to be the LOD and LOQ, respectively. Conclusion The developed and validated RP-HPLC system takes less time and can be used in the industry for routine quality control/analysis of bulk drug and marketed brexpiprazole products.

Novel, isocratic reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography method was developed and validated for the determination of enzalutamide (EZA) in bulk drug and pharmaceutical formulation. Efficient separation was achieved on PrincetonSPHER C18 100A, 5μ (250×4.6 mm) under the isocratic mode of elution using acetonitrile: water (80:20) % V/V as a mobile phase pumped in to the column at flow rate 1.0 mL/min. The effluent was monitored at 237.0 nm using UV detector. EZA was eluted in the given mobile phase at retention time (tR) of 3.2 minutes. The standard calibration curve was linear over the concentration range 10 - 60 μg/mL with correlation coefficient 0.997. The method was validated for accuracy, precision, sensitivity, robustness, ruggedness and all the resulting data treated statistically. The system suitability parameters like retention time, theoretical plates, tailing factor, capacity factor were found within the limit.

KV7, the voltage-gated potassium channels encoded by KCNQ genes, mediate heterogeneous vascular responses in adult rodents. Postnatal changes in the functional expression of KV7 channels have been reported in rodent saphenous arteries, but their physiological function in the neonatal renal vascular bed is unclear. Here, we report that, unlike adult pigs, only KCNQ1 (KV7.1) out of the five members of KCNQ genes was detected in neonatal pig renal microvessels. KCNQ1 is present in fetal pig kidneys as early as day 50 of gestation, and the level of expression remains the same up to postnatal day 21. Activation of the renal vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) KV7.1 stimulated whole-cell currents, inhibited by HMR1556 (HMR), a selective KV7.1 blocker. HMR did not change the steady-state diameter of isolated renal microvessels. Similarly, intrarenal artery infusion of HMR did not alter the mean arterial pressure (MAP), renal blood flow (RBF), and renal vascular resistance (RVR) in the pigs. An approximately 20 mmHg reduction in the MAP evoked effective autoregulation of the RBF, which HMR inhibited. We conclude that 1) The expression of KCNQ isoforms in porcine renal microvessels is dependent on kidney maturation, 2) KV7.1 is functionally expressed in neonatal pig renal vascular SMCs, 3) a decrease in arterial pressure up to 20 mmHg induces renal autoregulation in neonatal pigs, and 4) SMC KV7.1 does not control basal renal vascular tone but contributes to neonatal renal autoregulation triggered by a step decrease in arterial pressure.

The endothelium has emerged as an important modulator of vascular tone by producing both vasodilating and vasoconstricting substances. In vitro studies have demonstrated that endothelial cells produce endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF), which promotes vasodilation via the stimulation of intracellular guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP). However, the role of EDRF in the basal regulation of cardiopulmonary and renal function is not well defined. The present study was therefore designed to assess the function of EDRF by studying two groups of normal anesthetized dogs, of which one received a competitive inhibitor to EDRF generation, NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA; 50 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 iv), and the other received a vehicle. The L-NMMA infusion produced no significant increase in mean arterial pressure but marked increases in systemic, pulmonary, and renal vascular resistances compared with the vehicle group. Although renal blood flow decreased with L-NMMA, no changes were observed in glomerular filtration rate or sodium excretion. Associated with the cardiopulmonary and renal responses with L-NMMA was a modest increase in plasma endothelin (7.9 +/- 1.3 to 10.2 +/- 1.8 pg/ml, P less than 0.05), an endothelium-derived vasoconstrictor. No alteration was observed in plasma or urinary cGMP with EDRF inhibition. These cardiopulmonary and renal responses with L-NMMA may be attributed not only to EDRF inhibition but to an imbalance between endothelium-derived relaxing and contracting factors.

A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method with UV detector for the determination of dyclonine hydrochloride and a gas chromatography (GC) method with flame ionization detector (FID) for the determination of camphor and menthol in lotion were developed. The developed HPLC method involved using a SinoChoom ODS-BP C18reversed-phase column (5 μm, 4.6 mm × 200 mm) and mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile : water : triethylamine in a ratio of 45 : 55 : 1.0; pH was adjusted to 3.5 with glacial acetic acid. The developed GC method for determination of camphor and menthol involved using an Agilent 19091J-413 capillary chromatographic column (30 m × 320 μm × 0.25 μm). The two methods were validated according to official compendia guidelines. The calibration of dyclonine hydrochloride for HPLC method was linear over the range of 20–200 μg/mL. The retention time was found at 6.0 min for dyclonine hydrochloride. The calibration of camphor and menthol of GC method was linear over the range of 10–2000 μg/mL. The retention time was found at 2.9 min for camphor and 3.05 min for menthol. The proposed HPLC and GC methods were proved to be suitable for the determination of dyclonine hydrochloride, camphor, and menthol in lotion.
