{"title":"Safety evaluation of 5-hydroxytryptophan and S-(2-aminoethyl)isothiouronium bromide hydrobromide on rodent lungs.","authors":"Suresh Kumar Thokchom, Namita Indracanti, Anoushka Khanna, Prem Kumar Indraganti","doi":"10.4103/ijp.ijp_176_23","DOIUrl":"10.4103/ijp.ijp_176_23","url":null,"abstract":"Objectives: During the past few decades, various compounds have been researched for their potential as radioprotectants, and many of them were found to be safe and effective in several preclinical models. However, many of these compounds were found to have serious adverse effects when evaluated in clinical settings, thereby making them unsuitable for human applications. 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) and S-(2-aminoethyl) isothiouronium bromide hydrobromide (AET) act in a synergistic fashion to promote radioprotection. The present study primarily emphasizes the safety of fixed dose of 5-HTP + AET in the lungs of C57BL/6 mice, a well-known model used in drug safety studies.Materials and methods: Post-administration of the combination of HTP+AET at specific time points, blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were collected for the analysis of inflammatory and oxidative stress markers of the lungs. Thereafter, the mice were sacrificed and the lungs were dissected out, weighed, and fixed in formalin for histopathological studies.Results: The inflammatory biomarkers: tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-10 and oxidative stress biomarkers: 8-isoprostane and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine were found to have normal levels in blood and BALF in both control and treatment groups, which was further supported by normal histological findings. In addition, other endpoints such as food and water intake were found to be within normal limits.Conclusion: The present safety study reflects that the combination has no adverse effects on the lungs of the experimental mouse. Further, evaluation in higher mammals including nonhuman primates is essential prior to validation of the safety of the combination in humans.","PeriodicalId":49189,"journal":{"name":"the Indian Journal of Pharmacy","volume":"56 1","pages":"28-36"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11001180/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140060976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
