Study of in vivo Diallyl disulfide Metabolism • Aims of the study : • To determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of DADS • To determine the metabolites of DADS : bio-availability of DADS and of the metabolites • Experimental conditions • in rat • DADS administrated by force feeding • Analysis instruments : DADS , AM, AMS, AMSO, AMSO2 : volatile compounds studied by GC-MS (gas chromatography mass spectrometry) and quantified by using the technique of Selected Ion Monitoring (SIM) AGS: non-volatile compounds studied by HPLC-UV (254nm) 4th October 2001
Metabolism in vitro of DADS O S O AMSO2 , Allylmethylsulfone O S S S DADS, diallyldisulfide AMSO, allyl methyl sulfoxide S Allyl methyl sulfur SH AM, Allyl mercaptan O S S S-glutathion S DADSO, allicin AGS, Allylglutathionylsulfure 4th October 2001
Method and experimental protocol DADS i.g. 200 mg/kg • Sacrifice • 0.15, 0.3, 0.6, 1, 2, 4, 6, 24 hours • every single days during 2 weeks. Plasma Urine Kidney Intestine Stomach Liver • Sample preparation • homogenization, p cymene (internal standard) • protein precipitation (TCA, 30%) • Extraction with CH2Cl2(3 times) • organic phase : nonane (standardization for concentration) GC-MS analysis 4th October 2001
General Observations • Toxicity: • 8% toxicity(4/52 of treated rats dead during the first 24 hours) • Evaluation of GC-MS analytical procedures • Minimum detection : AM=1 E-4µg/ml AMS=8E- 4µg/ml DADS=1E-3µg/ml • Linearity : AM =7.E-3µg/ml -100µg/ml, AMS=3 E-3µg/ml - 87µg/ml DADS= 3 E-3µg/ml - 110µg/ml • Quantitative analysis of sulfur compounds levels performed by integrating standards levels (GC-MS) sulfur compounds • u.a g-1 = p cymene X nonane X organ weight • No DADSO detected in liver and plasma extracts • No AGS in liver extracts HPLC-UV 4th October 2001
Repartition of DADS stomach = 20 000ua.g-1 Early (<24 hours) 1- Detected in each organ 2- Maximum in liver Long-time (<15 days) 1- Quantifiable in stomach and in intestine until the 3rd day 2- Very low levels in other organs 4th October 2001
Metabolites in plasma 1- Early 2- long time - Very low levels of AM and AMS - Rapid appearance of AMSO and AMSO2(10 min.) - Peaks at the second day 4th October 2001
Metabolites in liver 1- Early 2- long time - The highest level of AMS, AMSO and AMSO2 - Levels of AM, AMS, AMSO and AMSO2associated - Ratio AMSO2/AMSO : liver > plasma 4th October 2001
Metabolites in stomach 1- Early 2- long time - Highest level of AM (vs other organs) - No association between all sulfur compounds levels - Essentially similar pattern in intestine 4th October 2001
Metabolites in kidney 1- Early 2- long time - Similar to plasma (distribution or storage ?) 4th October 2001
Metabolites in urine 1- Early 2- long time - Moderate levels of compounds (predominant way of elimination ?) - Complete elimination by the 11th day 4th October 2001
Conclusions • Absolute quantification is required (purified oxidized compounds are now available) • Oral administration of DADS induces AM, AMS, AMSO, AMSO2formation • Confirmation of the in vitro hepatic metabolism. • But no DADSO and AGS are detectable • Two steps : • a rapid biotransformation and disappearance of DADS < 6 hours • a long period of elimination for oxidized metabolites <13 days • Perspectives • study of in vivo DADSO metabolism • implication of AGS 4th October 2001
