연구배경: Bleomycin(BLM) 투여로 유발되는 폐손상 및 폐섬유화는 특발성 폐섬유증의 실험적 모델로써 BLM의 폐독성 기전은 산소유리기에 의한 직접 독성과 염증세포, 섬유모세포 및 세포외 기질에 의한 간접 독성으로 나누어 설명하고 있다. 이에 저자는 폐손상의 주요 원인이 되는 산소유리기의 생성과 이미 형성된 산소유리기를 보집할 수 있는 산화방지제들을 투여함으로써, BLM에 의한 폐손상 및 폐섬유화의 발생과 그 억제기전을 이해하고자 본 실험을 시행하였다. 방법: 웅성 백서에 폐손상 및 폐섬유화의 대표적인 실험적 방법인 bleomycin (BLM)을 투여함과 동시에 산화방지제로 구리의 킬레이트제인 penicillamine, 철의 킬레이트제인 deferoxamine과 산소유리기의 보집제인 vitamine E를 투여한 후 그 형태학적 변화를 보기 위해 기관지폐포 세척액 검사, 광학현미경 소견과 세포외 기질인 교원섬유 제 I, III, IV형과 비교원성 기질인 fibronectin과 laminin 그리고 근섬유모세포에 대한 NBD phallicidin에 대한 면역형광염색 및 면역조직화학염색소견을 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 결과: 1) 기관지폐포세척액의 검사소견상 총 세포수는 BLM 단독투여군의 경우 제4일에 최고값에 도달한 후 감소하기 시작하여 제28일에 대조군과 비슷해졌지만, penicillamine과 deferoxamine 처치군은 제1일부터 제28일까지 계속 높았으며, vitamin E 처치군은 제3일부터 현저한 차이로 감소하여 제7일부터 대조군과 비슷해졌다. 기관지폐포 세척액의 각 염증세포구성비는 BLM 단독투여군은 초기 즉 제1, 3, 4일에 중성구가 현저히 증가하다가 제7일부터 감소하여 제28일에 대조군과 비슷해졌지만, vitamin E 처치군은 중성구가 제3일부터 BLM 단독투여군의 1/3이하로 현저히 감소하였다. 2) 광학현미경소견은 BLM 단독투여군의 경우 다른 실험군에 비해 섬유화가 가장 심하였고, penicillamine 처치군은 중성구의 침윤이 지속적으로 많았으며, deferoxamine 처치군은 폐포 중격의 림프구 침윤이 뚜렷하였고, vitamin E 처치군은 페포 중격 및 폐포강내 대식세포 증가가 많았다. 이러한 소견은 기관지폐포세척액 소견과 잘 일치하였다. 산화방지제 처치군의 섬유화 소견은 deferoxamine 처치군이 가장 뚜렷하였고, penicillamine 처치군은 적었지만 관찰되었으며, vitamin E 처치군은 거의 없었다. 3) 세포외 기질의 변화로 폐포 간질의 기저막에 양성반응을 나타내는 제 IV형 교원섬유와 laminin 및 Jones' methenamine silver 염색결과는 비슷한 양상이었는데, BLM 단독투여군, penicillamine 처치군과 deferoxamine 처치군은 모두 제28일군에서 음성반응을 나타냈으나, vitamin E 처치군은 제28일까지 대조군과 비슷하게 기저막이 유지되었다. 섬유화 부위에 증가된 세포외 기질은 제 I 형 교원섬유와 fibronectin 이었으며, 제 III 형 교원섬유는 각 국에서 초기에 일시적으로 양성반응을 나타내었다. NBD phallicidin은 BLM 단독투여군에서 특히 제 28일군 육아조직의 방추형세포에 양성반응을 보였다. 결론: Bleomycin 투여에 의한 폐손상 및 폐섬유화 기전은 bleomycin이 구리 또는 철 이온의 존재하에 생성한 산소유리기에 의해 유발될 수도 있으나, 주로 중성구의 활성화로 인한 산소유리기에 의해 유발되고, 폐의 섬유화 제 I 형 교원섬유와 fibronectin의 증가로 초래되었다. 폐손상의 억제는 킬레이트제 보다는 산소유리기의 보집제인 vitamin E 투여시 가장 효과가 있었는데 이것은 초기의 중성구 증가 및 중성구의 활성화 정도에 따라 간질내 폐포의 기저막 유지 및 재생이 가능하고 이것이 폐의 탄력성을 유지시켜 폐손상을 억제할 수 있기 때문으로 사료된다.

A sensitive fluorometric method using 9-fluorenylmethyl pentafluorophenyl carbonate (FMPC) as the fluorescent labeling agent was developed to determine D-penicillamine (D-PA). The fluorophore had excitation and emission wavelengths of 260 nm and 313 nm, respectively. After derivatization, the fluorescent product was separated, and quantified by spectrofluorometry. The derivative was highly fluorescent and stable. Optimum condition for the reaction was investigated. A linear response was obtained over the range of $4.0{\times}10^{-7}-5.0{\times}10{-6}\;M$ with the correlation coefficient of 0.999 (n=6). The procedure described was successfully applied to the determination of the dosage forms of capsule with the recovery of $98.62{\pm}0.57%$ (150 mg), $98.36{\pm}0.57%$, (250 mg).

Amount of lead burden in a tissue reflects poisoning of lead in that tissue, so is the removal of lead directly connected to curement of lead poisoning. The purpose of present study was to investigate the relative effects of penicillamine and thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide (TTFD) or thiamine propyl disulfide (TPD) in the removal of lead from rat brain tissue treated with excessive lead. Wistar rat pups of both sexes were used in this experiment. Within 1 day of parturition, experimental mothers nursing their pups as well as rat pups were given drinking water containing 0.2% lead acetate, TTFD 20mg/1.2 L (2 mg/kg/day), TPD 20 mg/1.2 L (2mg/kg/day), penicillamine 40 mg/1.2 L (40 mg/kg/day), 0.2% lead acetate+TTFD 20mg/1.2 L (2 mg/kg/day), 0.2% lead acetate+ TPD 20 mg/1.2 L (2 mg/kg/day) or 0.2% lead acetate+ penicillamine 40 mg/1.2 L (40 mg/kg/day) ad libitum, throughout the entire period of experiment. Rat pups in the control group received normal tap water. The animals were sacrificed by decapitation on the day when they become 2 or 8 weeks of age. Brains were dissected into five regions: telencephalon, diencephalon, midbrain, pons/medulla and cerebellum. The dissected brain tissues were lyophillized and then solubilized by acid mixture (nitric acid + sulfuric acid). Lead levels in the solubilized brain tissues were measured by the inductively coupled plasma. In lead-exposed rats, lead levels were significantly higher than those of control group in all brain legions, lead levels in brain regions of TTFD or TPD group were generally lower than those of control group. The simultaneous administration of lead with TTFD or TPD to animals caused significant decrement of lead from all brain regions. In the elimination of lead from brain regions, effectiveness of TTFD or TPD was equivalant to penicillamine.

The mechanism of the decomposition of a bronchodilator, S-nitroso-N-acetyl-D,L-penicillamine (SNAP) by a bronchoconstrictor, aqueous sulfite, has been investigated in detail. The decomposition was studied using a conventional spectrophotometer at 336 nm over the ranges: 0.010 ≤ $[S^{IV}]_T$ ≤ 0.045 mol $dm^{-3}$, 3.96 ≤ pH ≤ 6.80 and 15.0 ≤ θ≤ 30.0 ℃, 0.60 ≤ I ≤ 1.00 mol $dm^{-3}$, and at ionic strength 1.00 mol $dm^{-3}$ (NaCl). The rate of reaction is dependent on the total sulfite concentration and pH in a complex manner, i.e., $k_{obs}\;=\;k_1K_2[S^{IV}]_T/ ([H^+]\;+\;K_2)$. At 25.0 ℃, the second order rate constant, $k_1$, was determined as $12.5\;{\pm}\;0.15\;mol^{-1}\;dm^3\;s^{-1}$. ${\Delta}H^{neq}\;=\;+32\;{\pm}\;3 kJ\;mol^{-1}\;and\;{\Delta}S^{\neq}\;=\;-138\;{\pm}\;13\;J\;mol^{-1}K^{-1}$. The N-nitrosohydroxylamine-N-sulfonate ion was detected as an intermediate before the formation of any of the by-products, namely, N-acetyl-D,L-penicillamine. The effect of concentration of aqueous copper(Ⅱ) ions on this reaction was also examined at pH 4.75, but there was no dependence on $[Cu^{2+}]$. In addition, the $pK_a$ of SNAP was determined as 3.51 ± 0.06 at 25.4 ℃ [I = 1.0 mol $dm^{-3}$ (NaCl)].

Two simple and sensitive spectrophotometric methods were developed for the determination of carbocisteine, penicillamine, ethionamide and thioctic acid in bulk and in their pharmaceutical preparations using alkaline potassium permanganate as an oxidizing agent. The first one involves determination of ethionamide and thioctic acid by spectrophotometric investigation of the oxidation reaction of the two drugs. The second method involves determination of carbocisteine and penicillamine by kinetic studies of the oxidation reaction of these two drugs at room temperature for a fixed time of 20 minutes. The absorbance of the colored manganate ions was measured at 610 nm in both methods. 1-10 ${\mu}$g/mL of ethionamide and thioctic acid could be etermined by the spectrophotometric method with detection limits of 0.11 and 0.089 ${\mu}$g/mL for the two drugs respectively. 2-10 ${\mu}$g/mL of carbocisteine and penicillamine could be determined by the kinetic method with detection limits of 0.14 and 0.21 ${\mu}$g/mL respectively. The two methods were successfully applied for the determination of these drugs in their dosage forms.

Lead acetate solution were intraperitoneally injected to rats of average body weight 220g to cause lead poisoning. Antidotes were orally administered using catheter to the rats and the urine was collected after 24 hours. ALA in the urine were determined by U. V. spectrophotometer. Antidotes used in this experiment were the water extracts of scutellaria radix and D-penicillamine solution. ALA in the urine was determind by Wada method. It was found that ALA content in the urine was decreased after oral administration of water extracts of scutellaria radix and D-penicillamine solution. In this study it is believed that water extract of suctellaria radix could be used as an excellent antidate in lead poisoning.

In order to study the change of laboratory parameters of lead poisoning, 8 persona who had not been treated previously for lead poisoning (Group 1 and 6 persons who had been inadequately treated for few months for chronic lead poisoning at local clinic (Group 2) were examined. They had occupational exposure to lead for 3 to 18 years (mean, 7.6). In group 1 blood lead, urine lead, urine coproporphyrin and ${\delta}$-aminolevulinic acid levels before our treatment exceeded the critical levels of lead poisoning. In group 2 urine lead level exceeded but blood lead, urine coproporphyrin and ${\delta}$-aminolevulinic acid levels were within normal limits. All of them were treated with D-penicillamine for 4 months as inpatients at Industrial Accident Hospital. The dose of D-penicillamine was the same in all patients; 600 mg per day p.o. and the chelating agent was administer every other week. For laboratory analysis, 24 hour urine and 10 gm of whole blood were collected every 1 month on last day of non-administration period. The results were as follows: 1. It was found that urine lead level was decreased below the cirtical level of lead poisoning after 4 month's treatment with D-penicillamine and blood lead level was decreased more progressively below the critical level after 1 month treatment. 2. Urine coproporphyrin and ${\delta}$-aminolevulinic acid levels were decreased progressively to normal range after 1 month treatment. 3. Two months after treatment, blood lead, urine lead, urine coproporphyrin and ${\delta}$-aminolevulinic acid levels showed some increasing trends. 4. Urine lead level should be checked in a person who had been inadequately treated with chelating agents because blood lead, coproporphyrin and ${\delta}$-aminolevulinic acid might be in normal range.

The kinetics and mechanism of reduction of Cu(II) with an excess D-penicillamine have been examined at pH = 6.2 and 0.60M in ionic strength. The reaction at the initial stage is biphasic with a rapid complexation process to give "red" transient complex of $[Cu(II)(pen)_2]^2$- that is partially reduced to another transient "brown" intermediate. The "brown" intermediate is finally reduced to diamagnetic "yellow" complex, $[Cu(I)(Hpen)]_n$. The final reduction process is pseudo-first order in ["brown" transient] disappearance $with {\kappa} = {{\kappa}_{3a} + {\kappa}_{3b}[pen]^{2-}},$ where ${\kappa}_{3a} = (5.0{\pm}0.8){\times}10^{-3}sec^{-1}$ and ${\kappa} = (0.14{\pm}0.02) M^{-1}sec^{-1}$ at $25^{\circ}C$. The activation parameters for the $[H_2pen]$-independent and $[H_2pen]$-dependent paths are ${\Delta}H^{\neq} = (52{\pm}5)kJmol^{-1},$ and ${\Delta}S^{\neq} = ( - 27{\pm}3)JK^{-1}mo^{l-1},$ and ${\Delta}H^{\neq} = (56{\pm}2)kJmol^{-1}$ and ${\Delta} S^{\neq} = ( - 18{\pm}0.7)JK^{-1}mol^{-1}$ respectively. The nature of "brown" intermediate is not clearly identified, but this intermediate seems to be in the mixed-valence state, judging from the kinetic and spectroscopic informations.
