Pharmacokinetics of tiaprofenic acid in normal rabbits and rabbits subjected to joint immobilisation

Abstract: In a previous study, tiaprofenic acid (TA) was administered daily over a 30-day period at 5 and 10 mg/kg of body weight subcutaneously (s.c.) to animals with arthritis induced by immobilisation. The 10 mg/kg dose exacerbated the loss of proteoglycan from joint cartilage but the 5 mg/kg dose showed protective effects on articular cartilage. These results led us to investigate the concentration of TA achieved in synovial fluid of both the immobilised and non-immobilised rabbit joints after single s.c. doses of 5… Show more

“…For example, radioactivity in the carageenan-inflamed paws was higher in comparison to the non-inflamed paws, regardless of the type of NSAIDs (7). Similar results were observed in the rabbit model of joint immobilisation, using a non-immobilised contralateral joint as control, after subcutaneous administration of tiaprofenic acid, another member of the propionic acid family (8).…”

“…The reason for these similar values lies in the factors controlling the AUC values. From the compartmental model, it can be shown that the ratio of the AUC values is controlled by the ratio of clearances into and out of synovial fluid [14,15]. A similar relationship exists for the ratio AUCb/AUC.…”

“…These were k Vc/ks V and kspbV Ikbp Vb. These ratios represent the ratios of the clearances of the drugs into and out of synovial and blister fluids, respectively [14,15]. The areas under the time-course of drug concentrations in plasma, synovial and blister fluids (AUC, AUCS and AUCb) were determined by trapezoidal integration.…”

“…Animals were sacrificed after the last drug application, and 24 h urine were collected at this time point, and stored at ¹80 8 C. Urinary creatinine was measured using a commercially available test kit (Sigma Deisenhofen, Germany), based on the established picrinic acid method [17]. Drug levels in plasma were determined similarly to [16]. 30 and 120 min after the last application of 5 mg/kg tiaprofenic acid the drug levels were 18 and 10 g/ml.…”
