Abstract:Duloxetine is a serotonin/noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor that is used as an antidepressant. However, it is known to cause constipation as a side effect. Magnesium compounds, such as magnesium oxide and magnesium hydroxide aqueous solution, are often combined with duloxetine to ameliorate the constipation caused by duloxetine. However, there is concern that these magnesium compounds might alter the effects of duloxetine via physicochemical interactions. In this study, we attempted to clarify the interactions … Show more
“…e main methods used to detect duloxetine hydrochloride were HPLC [13] and LC-MS [14][15][16]. UPLC-MS/MS technology was a common method for drug-drug interactions (DDIs) and herb-drug interactions (HDIs) [17][18][19](Ruan et al; Xia et al, 2021;Zhu et al, 2019).…”

The effect of Chaihu Shugan pills (CHSG) on the pharmacokinetics of duloxetine and its metabolite 4-hydroxyduloxetine in beagle dogs was investigated by establishing an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method to simultaneously measure the concentrations of duloxetine and 4-hydroxyduloxetine in beagle dog plasma. Duloxetine and 4-hydroxyduloxetine were separated on the UPLC-C18 column after acetonitrile precipitation and detected by mass spectrometry with multireaction detection mode (MRM). Six adult healthy beagle dogs (weighing 7–9 kg, male and female) were randomly selected and examined for a single-dose administration of duloxetine hydrochloride (2 mg/kg, control group) and oral administration of CHSG (0.3 g/kg) twice daily for 15 consecutive days followed by a single-dose administration of duloxetine hydrochloride (2 mg/kg, experimental group) using the self-control method. All plasma samples were treated in the same way, and then the concentrations of duloxetine and 4-hydroxyduloxetine were determined using the established UPLC-MS/MS method. The obtained data were subjected to DAS 2.0 software to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters, and SPSS 20.0 software was used to compare the differences between the two groups. Duloxetine and 4-hydroxyduloxetine had a good linear relationship in the ranges of 1–1000 ng/ml and 0.1–100 ng/ml, and the lower limits of quantification (LLOQ) were 1 ng/mL and 0.1 ng/ml, respectively. The precision, accuracy, extraction recovery, matrix effect, and stability meet the requirements of the guiding principles. After combination with CHSG, Cmax and AUC0⟶t of duloxetine decreased by 49.33% and 13.08%, respectively, and t1/2 was shortened to 10.17 h; Cmax and AUC0⟶t of 4-hydroxyduloxetine decreased by 71.47% and 48.78%, respectively, and t1/2 was shortened to 7.97 h. The UPLC-MS/MS method was fully developed to simultaneously measure the plasma concentration of duloxetine and its metabolite 4-hydroxyduloxetine in beagle dogs. CHSG could slow down the absorption of duloxetine, induce the metabolism of duloxetine and 4-hydroxyduloxetine in beagle dogs, and reduce plasma exposure.

“…RAGE inhibitor peptide sequences occur at residues 32-42 on S100P in the same region as many other S100 family members. RAGE inhibitor peptides can disrupt the connection between S100P, HMGB-1, and S100A4 on RAGE as shown in Figure 5 (Table 2) [31,317,318]. The impact of RAGE inhibitors on various cancers is described further down.…”

The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a member of the immunoglobulin family that is overexpressed in several cancers. RAGE is highly expressed in the lung, and its expression increases proportionally at the site of inflammation. This receptor can bind a variety of ligands, including advanced glycation end products, high mobility group box 1, S100 proteins, adhesion molecules, complement components, advanced lipoxidation end products, lipopolysaccharides, and other molecules that mediate cellular responses related to acute and chronic inflammation. RAGE serves as an important node for the initiation and stimulation of cell stress and growth signaling mechanisms that promote carcinogenesis, tumor propagation, and metastatic potential. In this review, we discuss different aspects of RAGE and its prominent ligands implicated in cancer pathogenesis and describe current findings that provide insights into the significant role played by RAGE in cancer. Cancer development can be hindered by inhibiting the interaction of RAGE with its ligands, and this could provide an effective strategy for cancer treatment.
“…duloxetine and tricyclics) are used [141]. Duloxetine is a serotonin/noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor that is used as an antidepressant and is also prescribed for neuropathic pain [142] ( Figure 2). There are a few studies that used duloxetine for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy [143].…”
Interactions of the receptor for advanced glycation end product (RAGE) and its ligands in the context of their role in diabetes mellitus, inflammation, and carcinogenesis have been extensively investigated. This review focuses on the role of RAGE-ligands and anti-RAGE drugs capable of controlling cancer progression. Different studies have demonstrated interaction of RAGE with a diverse range of acidic (negatively charged) ligands such as advanced glycation end products (AGEs), high-mobility group box1 (HMGB1), and S100s, and their importance to cancer progression. Some RAGE-ligands displayed effects on anti- and pro-apoptotic proteins through upregulation of the phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathways, while downregulating p53 in cancer progression. In addition, RAGE may undergo ligand-driven multimodal dimerization or oligomerization mediated through self-association of some of its subunits. We conclude our review by proposing possible future lines of study that could result in control of cancer progression through RAGE inhibition.
