The principle of bioisosterism was applied to design derivatives replacing the carboxylic acid group. The carboxylic acid group was replaced with bioisoteric groups, such as 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol and hydroxamic acid. The derivatives were then synthesized, characterized, and evaluated in rats for reduced gastrointestinal irritation and hypolipidemic effects. Gemfibrozil was used as standard for comparison. The derivatives demonstrated less gastric irritation and retained hypolipidemic effects, however the hypolipidemic affects were significantly less than that of Gemfibrozil. The results of this study offers a direction for further research on the application of bioisosterism for the design of new derivatives of Gemfibrozil and other fibric acid derivatives.展开更多

The carrier gas was helium. The internal standard was ibuprofen. After acidification with 3 mol·L -1 HCl solution, the plasma was extracted with n hexane — dichloromethane (3∶1) and then reacted with bis (trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA). RESULTS: A good linearity was obtained from 0 4 to 60 0 μg·mL -1 of gemfibrozil in human plasma (γ=0 9992). The detection limit of gemfibrozil in plasma was 0 1 μg·mL -1 . The average recovery was 96 5%. The pharmacokinetics of gemfibrozil was determined by this GC MS method following a single oral dose of 600 mg gemfibrozil capsule given to each of 10 volunteers. The results showed that the plasma concentration time courses conformed to one compartment model. CONCLUSION: The established GC MS method was found to be a good method for determination of gemfibrozil in human plasma. The method was precise and sensitive.展开更多
文摘Gemfibrozil is a widely used lipid modifying drug with well-established hypolipidemic and anti-atherosclerotic benefits; however, the presence of a carboxylic acid moiety in its structure is responsible for side effects in the gastrointestinal tract.
