    Notes: Abstract AHR-13268D (4-[3-[4-[Bis(4-flurophenyl)hydroxymethyl]-1-piperidinyl]propoxy]benzoic acid, sodium salt) is a potent, long-acting water soluble, antiallergic and antihistaminic agent. AHR-13268D protects sensitive guinea pigs from collapse induced by aerosolized antigen; 1, 5, and 24 h ED50s in the test were 0.27, 0.25, 0.93 mg/kg, PO, respectively. AHR-13268D was also active when given as an aerosol, the 1 h ED50=0.29%. In the rat passivefoot anaphylaxis test, AHR-13268D was slightly more active (1.55 times) than AHR-5333B when given orally 1 h prior to challenge and equipotent to cromolyn when given intravenously immediately prior to challenge. AHR-13268D displayed potent, long-acting antihistaminic activity in naive guinea pigs; the 1, 5, and 24 h oral ED50s being in the range of 0.3 mg/kg. AHR-13268D (10 to 20 mg/kg, PO) attenuated the skin responses to ascaris antigen in sensitive dogs and did not alter the EEG pattern or sleep/wake patterns of cats at doses in vast excess of its antihistaminic activity.In vitro, AHR-13268D was a potent inhibitor of histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells (IC50=0.51 nM) and was as potent as the reference 5-LO inhibitor phenidone in inhibiting antigen-induced contractions of guinea pig ileum in the presence of pyrilamine, atropine, and imidazole (IC50∼300 μM). AHR-13268B was bioavailable (∼88%) from capsules or from oral solutions.

    Notes: Abstract Rocastine [AHR-11325, 2-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-2,3-dihydro-4-methylpyrido-[3,2-f]-1,4-oxazepine-5(4H)-thione (E)-2-butenedioate)] is a rapid-acting, potent, nonsedating antihistamine. In guinea pigs challenged with a lethal dose of histamine, rocastine is as effective [based on 1 hr. oral, protective dose (PD50s)] as brompheniramine, chlorpheniramine, pyrilamine, and promethazine and superior to astemizole, diphenhydramine, terfenadine, and oxaomide. Rocastine has a faster onset of action than does terfenadine; rocastine being as effective with a 15 min pretreatment time (PD50=0.13 mg/kg) as it is with a 1 hr pretreatment time (PD50=0.12 mg/kg), while the 15 min PD50 of terfenadine (PD50=44.0 mg/kg) is 22 times greater than the 1 hr PD50 (PD50=1.93 mg/kg). Against aerosolized histamine, rocastine was 7.12×, 2.63×, and equipotent to pyrilamine in preventing histamine-induced prostration at pretreatment times of 1, 3, and 6 hr, respectively. Rocastine protected guinea pigs from collapse induced by aerosolized antigen; rocastine was ∼36 × more potent (based on 1 hr PD50) than diphenhydramine and as potent as oxatomide and terfenadine. Rocastine did not alter the EEG of cats at doses in vast excess (150×) of its antihistaminic dose nor did it potentiate yohimbine toxicity in mice. Further, rocastine possesses no anticholinergic, antiadrenergic, or antiserotonergic propertiesin vitro. Rocastine is a selective, nonsedating, H1-antagonist with a rapid onset of action.

    Notes: System response data for step changes in input tracer concentration have been obtained for two different impeller agitated continuous flow mixing systems containing aqueous polysaccharide solutions. The vessel volumes were 1.6 and 10.9 liters. Polysaccharide concentration, dilution rate, and impeller speed were varied according to a plan devised using dimensional analysis and assuming that bulk motion is the predominant mass transport mechanism in the system. The data show that this is not true and that serious errors may occur if scale-up calculations are based on assuming that bulk motion predominates. Under the operating conditions used, perfect mixing was not observed.

    Notes: Abstract The antiemetic activity, gastric motor activity, and dopamine receptor effects of metoclopramide, dazopride, and sulpiride were assessed to establish if enhancement of gastric motility or antagonism of central dopamine receptors is the predominant action for drug-induced suppression of cisplatin-induced emesis. Emesis produced in dogs by cisplatin is antagonized by metoclopramide and dazopride. The antiemetic actions of metoclopramide and dazopride are associated with their ability to enhance gastric motor activity. Dazopride, unlike metoclopramide, has minimal dopamine receptor antagonist properties. Sulpiride is a potent dopamine receptor antagonist; however, it had no effect on the stomach and was ineffective in suppressing cisplatin-induced emesis.
