The present study describes the interaction between carbamazepine (CBZ) and viloxazine, a recently synthesized antidepressant agent. Seven epileptic patients on chronic anticonvulsant therapy showed ...a significant (p less than 0.005) increase in steady-state serum CBZ levels (from 8.1 +/- 2.5 SD to 12.1 +/- 2.5 SD micrograms/ml) when viloxazine (300 mg/day) was added to the therapy. The effect was associated with the appearance of mild CBZ intoxication. The symptoms of this intoxication (i.e., dizziness, ataxia, fatigue, drowsiness) disappeared rapidly, and serum CBZ levels decreased to the basal values, when viloxazine administration was stopped.

Diurnal variation in dipropylacetic acid (DPA) plasma levels was investigated in 47 and 42 epileptic patients, chronically treated with sodium dipropylacetate and dipropylacetamide (DPM), ...respectively, taken alone or in addition to other antiepilepic drugs. Fluctuation in DPA plasma levels was significantly less in patients receiving dipropylacetamide. The slow absorption and the more prolonged plasma half-life of dipropylacetamide accounted for these findings. Although the importance of diurnal fluctuations in DPA levels has not yet been established, possible clinical implications are discussed.
The present study was designed to investigate the influence of food on dipropylacetic acid (DPA) absorption from dipropylacetamide (DPM). Six healthy male volunteers received at weekly intervals, in ...a crossover randomized fashion, a single oral dose of 60 mg DPM, as 2 X 300-mg capsules, in a fasting state and after a standard meal. In the latter state, the lag time of DPA appearance in the serum increased significantly (p less than 0.02) from 0.6 +/- 0.2 to 2.3 +/- 1.2 h (mean values +/- SD). Maximal DPA serum levels and bioavailability increased significantly (p less than 0.05), with mean values of 27.7 +/- 19.8 and 19.0 +/- 14.7%, respectively, following food. The slower gastric emptying with a consequent improved DPM exposure to metabolizing enzymes and changes in gastric pH probably accounted for these findings. These results suggest that it is more advantageous to take DPM after meals. This helps to reduce gastrointestinal disturbances and to promote DPA absorption.
A gas-liquid chromatographic procedure for measuring the serum levels of the antidepressant viloxazine is described. The drug and the internal standard imipramine (IMI) are extracted from 1 ml serum. ...The method involves a three-step extraction, derivatization of viloxazine with acetic anhydride, and injection into a gas chromatograph equipped with a nitrogen-phosphorus-selective detector. The retention times for IMI and viloxazine were 4.7 and 6.1 min, respectively. The standard curves were linear over the 100- to 2,000-ng/ml range. The recovery averaged 64.5% and the lowest detection limit was 80 ng/ml. The within-run and day-to-day coefficients of variations were 11.9 and 12.5%, respectively, at 250 ng/ml, and 8.9 and 9.2%, respectively, at 1,500 ng/ml. The method is adequate both for single-dose pharmacokinetic studies and for monitoring serum viloxazine levels in chronically treated patients.
Rhodobacter sphaeroides strain R26.1 showed tolerance to Co2+ ions, up to 10 mM concentration. Interestingly the bacteriochlorophyll biosynthesis was found to decrease upon addition of such metal in ...the growth medium. Analysis of R. sphaeroides proteome from cells grown in control and in Co2+ enriched media was performed by two dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) followed by mass spectrometry. Proteome and functional analyses of differentially expressed proteins in cobalt response clearly highlighted the involvement of several metabolic pathways, and in particular of some enzymes involved in tetrapyrrole biosynthesis pathway.
