    Notes: Abstract: 54Mn2+ uptake into brain and choroid plexus from the circulation was studied using the in situ rat brain perfusion technique. Initial uptake from blood was linear with time (30 s to 6 min) and extrapolated to zero with an average transfer coefficient of ∼6 × 10-5 ml/s/g for brain and ∼7 × 10-3 ml/s/g for choroid plexus. Influx from physiologic saline was three- to fourfold more rapid and exceeded that predicted for passive diffusion by more than one order of magnitude. The lower uptake rate from blood could be explained by plasma protein binding as the free fraction of 54Mn2+ in rat plasma was ≤30%. Purified albumin, transferrin, and α2-macroglobulin were each found to bind 54Mn2+ significantly and to restrict brain 54Mn2+ influx. The results demonstrate that 54Mn2+ is readily taken up into the CNS, most likely as the free ion, and that transport is critically affected by plasma protein binding. The results support the hypothesis that Mn2+ transport across the blood-brain barrier is facilitated by either an active or a passive mechanism.

    Notes: Summary A hybrid compartmental-physiological model for cyclopentenyl cytosine (CPE-C) is designed on the basis of early limited rodent pharmacokinetic data. Application of model independent pharmacokinetics and biochemical knowledge was first used to conceptualize such a model. The approach was to scale the physiological parameters of the model (compartmental clearances) and keep constant the anatomic parameters of the model (compartment volumes). Scaling of physiological mechanisms was based on body weight/surface area ratios. Using these principles, simulations with the model can reasonably anticipate the in vivo behavior of (CPE-C) in several species (mouse, rat, dog). The model is useful in understanding species differences in pharmacokinetic behavior of CPE-C.

    Notes: Metabolism of 1,1,1,2,2-pentafluorohexane with liver microsomes from phenobarbital-treated rats gave only one metabolite, namely, the 5-hydroxy derivative. Under similar conditions 1,1-difluorocyclohexane was metabolized to give mainly the 3- and 4-hydroxy derivatives in the ratio 1:∼5.5 The structures of these metabolites were established by chemical ionization (CI) and/or electron impact (EI) mass spectrometry and confirmed by synthesis in the case of 1,1-difluorocyclohexan-4-ol. Oxidation of 1,1-difluorocyclohexane with lead tetrakis(trifluoroacetate) also gave, inter alia, the 3- and 4-hydroxy derivatives. In saturated hydrocarbons complete replacement of hydrogen by fluorine at one particular carbon will not only block microsomal hydroxylation thereat but will also inhibit hydroxylation at neighbouring hydrogen-bearing carbons, (α almost completely, β markedly, γ slightly).
