Experimentally induced lipidosis in uterine and vaginal epithelium of rats.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two lipidosis-inducing drugs (the anorectic drug chlorphentermine and the tricyclic antidepressant-imipramine) upon the estrous cycle of rats and upon the morphology of the vaginal and uterine epithelia. After two weeks of continuous administration of high daily drug doses, the estrous cycle became stagnant. Ultrastructurally, the vaginal and uterine epithelia contained storage lysosomes which were filled with undigested polar lipids appearing as multilamellated material. The uterine luminal epithelium was most severely affected. The estrous cycle was abolished also by treatment with the anorexigenic drug phentermine, although this compound does not cause lipidosis. Therefore, the cessation of the estrous cycle cannot be attributed to the lipidosis as induced by chlorphentermine and imipramine; probably it is a consequence of the main actions of these psychotropic drugs. The biological basis for the exceedingly severe lipidosis in the uterine luminal epithelium is suggested to be the heavy load of polar lipids physiologically delivered to the lysosomal apparatus as long as the cycle-dependent apoptotic and autophagic processes were going on during the early period of drug treatment.

X-ray microanalysis of cultured alveolar macrophages with phospholipidosis.

When administered to humans and animals, the iodine-containing drug amiodarone can cause pulmonary toxicity. As part of the pulmonary response to amiodarone, the drug and its principal metabolite, desethylamiodarone, accumulate in alveolar macrophages. Little is known about the susceptibility of lungs with preexisting damage to amiodarone administration. A number of chemicals can cause pulmonary phospholipidosis in humans and animals. To study the effect of a preexisting phospholipidosis on the intracellular accumulation of amiodarone and desethylamiodarone, rats were treated with chlorphentermine to induce a phospholipidosis in alveolar macrophages. The cells were recovered from the lungs by pulmonary lavage and placed in cell culture. They were then exposed to the same concentration of either amiodarone or desethylamiodarone. The intracellular distribution of each drug was quantified by measuring the associated iodine signal using X-ray microanalysis of freeze-dried cryosections of cells. Both drugs accumulated in lipid-rich amorphous bodies which correspond to lysosomally derived lamellar structures observed in conventional plastic sections. The level of desethylamiodarone exceeded that of amiodarone in the amorphous bodies. With both drugs, a higher concentration of iodine was present at the outer edges of the amorphous bodies compared to that in the center core. This suggests that the drugs are unable to freely penetrate the performed structures. By monitoring the concentrations of sodium and potassium ions within the nucleus, it was determined that chlorphentermine treatment disrupted the ionic distribution in the cells. Exposure to amiodarone, but not desethylamiodarone, resulted in further changes in sodium and potassium levels.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Selective monomethylation of the primary amine function using [11C]CH3I and the N-trifluoroacetyl derivative: preparation of N-[11C-methyl]chlorphentermine.
Kizuka H, Elmaleh DR.
Department of Radiology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston 02114.
A simple, rapid and efficient method for the preparation of a potential brain blood-flow agent, N-[11C-methyl]-chlorphentermine ([11C]NMCP), is described. Optimization of the radiochemical yield of [11C]NMCP was accomplished by a Gabriel-like reaction which permits the transformation of a primary amine to a secondary amine through a sequence of acylation, deprotonation, monomethylation and saponification. This method precludes the formation of polymethylated by-products which can reduce radiochemical yields, particularly with low specific activity 11CO2.
