  • dapsone associated methemoglobinemia in a patient with slow nat2 5b haplotype and impaired cytochrome b5 reductase activity
    The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2012
    Co-Authors: Mahmoud Abouraya, James C Sacco, Kristie Hayes, Sajeve Samuel Thomas, Craig S Kitchens, Lauren A Trepanier
    Abstract:

    Dapsone (4,4′-diaminodiphenylsulfone; DDS) is a sulfone antimicrobial used to treat leprosy, malaria, and inflammatory dermatoses and to prevent and treat opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients, particularly those who cannot tolerate sulfonamide antimicrobials.1 However, dapsone can lead to dose-dependent hematologic toxicity and is the most commonly recognized cause of acquired methemoglobinemia in human patients.2 The Hydroxylamine metabolite of dapsone oxidizes the iron moiety of hemoglobin,3 which leads to increased levels of methemoglobin, impaired oxygen delivery, and cyanosis. Dapsone Hydroxylamine is generated by CYP2C9 and CYP2C19, with minor contributions from other P450s.4,5 A rapid activity variant for CYP2C19 (CYP2C19*17) has been reported6 but not for CYP2C9. Dapsone Hydroxylamine is detoxified by cytochrome b5 (b5) and its electron donor, cytochrome b5 reductase (b5R),7 which are expressed in blood, liver, and other tissues. This reduction pathway converts the Hydroxylamine back to the parent dapsone. Dapsone itself is inactivated and eliminated following N-acetylation by the enzyme NAT2 in the liver,8 and impaired N-acetylation activity is a risk factor for hematologic and neurologic toxicity from dapsone.9,10 However, genotypic analysis of the CYP2C19, NAT2, and b5/b5R pathways has not been performed in the setting of dapsone-associated methemoglobinemia. This report describes a patient who developed methemoglobinemia at prophylactic dosages of dapsone, for which we characterized wild-type alleles at the CYP2C19*17 loci, but low activity of the b5/b5R pathway along with low expression of the CYB5A gene encoding b5, and a homozygous slow NAT2*5B haplotype, both of which may have contributed to defective dapsone detoxification.

  • cytochrome b5 and nadh cytochrome b5 reductase genotype phenotype correlations for Hydroxylamine reduction
    Pharmacogenetics and Genomics, 2010
    Co-Authors: James C Sacco, Lauren A Trepanier
    Abstract:

    Objectives NADH cytochrome b5 reductase (b5R) and cytochrome b5 (b5) catalyze the reduction of sulfamethoxazole Hydroxylamine (SMX-HA), which can contribute to sulfonamide hypersensitivity, to the parent drug sulfamethoxazole. Variability in Hydroxylamine reduction could thus play a role in adverse drug reactions. The aim of this study was to characterize variability in SMX-HA reduction in 111 human livers, and investigate its association with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in b5 and b5R cDNA.

  • nadh cytochrome b5 reductase and cytochrome b5 catalyze the microsomal reduction of xenobiotic Hydroxylamines and amidoximes in humans
    Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2004
    Co-Authors: Joseph R Kurian, Sunil U Bajad, Jackie L Miller, Nathaniel A Chin, Lauren A Trepanier
    Abstract:

    Hydroxylamine metabolites, implicated in dose-dependent and idiosyncratic toxicity from arylamine drugs, and amidoximes, used as pro-drugs, are metabolized by an as yet incompletely characterized NADH-dependent microsomal reductase system. We hypothesized that NADH cytochrome b 5 reductase and cytochrome b 5 were responsible for this enzymatic activity in humans. Purified human soluble NADH cytochrome b 5 reductase and cytochrome b 5, expressed in Escherichia coli , efficiently catalyzed the reduction of sulfamethoxazole Hydroxylamine, dapsone Hydroxylamine, and benzamidoxime, with apparent K m values similar to those found in human liver microsomes and specific activities ( V max) 74 to 235 times higher than in microsomes. Minimal activity was seen with either protein alone, and microsomal protein did not enhance activity other than additively. All three reduction activities were significantly correlated with immunoreactivity for cytochrome b 5 in individual human liver microsomes. In addition, polyclonal antibodies to both NADH cytochrome b 5 reductase and cytochrome b 5 significantly inhibited reduction activity for sulfamethoxazole Hydroxylamine. Finally, fibroblasts from a patient with type II hereditary methemoglobinemia (deficient in NADH cytochrome b 5 reductase) showed virtually no activity for Hydroxylamine reduction, compared with normal fibroblasts. These results indicate a novel direct role for NADH cytochrome b 5 reductase and cytochrome b 5 in xenobiotic metabolism and suggest that pharmacogenetic variability in either of these proteins may effect drug reduction capacity.

  • antioxidant properties of mitotempol and its Hydroxylamine
    Free Radical Research, 2009
    Co-Authors: Ja Trnka, Frances H Laikie, Angela Loga, Robi A J Smith, Michael P Murphy
    Abstract:

    Piperidine nitroxides such as TEMPOL have been widely used as antioxidants in vitro and in vivo. MitoTEMPOL is a mitochondria-targeted derivative of TEMPOL designed to protect mitochondria from the oxidative damage that they accumulate, but once there is rapidly reduced to its Hydroxylamine, MitoTEMPOL-H. As little is known about the antioxidant efficacy of Hydroxylamines, this study has assessed the antioxidant activity of both MitoTEMPOL and MitoTEMPOL-H. The Hydroxylamine was more effective at preventing lipid-peroxidation than MitoTEMPOL and decreased oxidative damage to mitochondrial DNA caused by menadione. In contrast to MitoTEMPOL, MitoTEMPOL-H has no superoxide dismutase activity and its antioxidant actions are likely to be mediated by hydrogen atom donation. Therefore, even though MitoTEMPOL is rapidly reduced to MitoTEMPOL-H in cells, it remains an effective antioxidant. Furthermore, as TEMPOL is also reduced to a Hydroxylamine in vivo, many of its antioxidant effects may also be mediated by its Hydroxylamine.

  • a mitochondria targeted nitroxide is reduced to its Hydroxylamine by ubiquinol in mitochondria
    Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2008
    Co-Authors: Ja Trnka, Frances H Laikie, Robi A J Smith, Michael P Murphy
    Abstract:

    Abstract Piperidine nitroxides such as TEMPOL act as antioxidants in vivo due to their interconversion among nitroxide, Hydroxylamine, and oxoammonium derivatives, but the mechanistic details of these reactions are unclear. As mitochondria are a significant site of piperidine nitroxide metabolism and action, we synthesized a mitochondria-targeted nitroxide, MitoTEMPOL, by conjugating TEMPOL to the lipophilic triphenylphosphonium cation. MitoTEMPOL was accumulated several hundred-fold into energized mitochondria where it was reduced to the Hydroxylamine by direct reaction with ubiquinol. This reaction occurred by transfer of H from ubiquinol to the nitroxide, with the ubisemiquinone radical product predominantly dismutating to ubiquinone and ubiquinol, together with a small amount reacting with oxygen to form superoxide. The piperidine nitroxides TEMPOL, TEMPO, and butylTEMPOL reacted similarly with ubiquinol in organic solvents but in mitochondrial membranes the rates varied in the order: MitoTEMPOL > butylTEMPOL > TEMPO > TEMPOL, which correlated with the extent of access of the nitroxide moiety to ubiquinol within the membrane. These findings suggest ways of using mitochondria-targeted compounds to modulate the coenzyme Q pool within mitochondria in vivo, and indicate that the antioxidant effects of mitochondria-targeted piperidine nitroxides can be ascribed to their corresponding Hydroxylamines.
