Pulmonary Metabolism of Substrates for Key Drug-Metabolizing Enzymes by Human Alveolar Type II Cells, Human and Rat Lung Microsomes, and the Isolated Perfused Rat Lung Model

description | Significant pulmonary metabolism of inhaled drugs could have drug safety implications or influence pharmacological effectiveness. To study this in vitro, lung microsomes or S9 are often employed. Here, we have determined if rat and human lung microsomes are fit for purpose or whether it is better to use specific cells where drug-metabolizing enzymes are concentrated, such as alveolar type II (ATII) cells. Activities for major hepatic and pulmonary human drug-metabolizing enzymes are assessed and the data contextualized towards an in vivo setting using an ex vivo isolated perfused rat lung model. Very low rates of metabolism are observed in incubations with human ATII cells when compared to isolated hepatocytes and fewer of the substrates are found to be metabolized when compared to human lung microsomal incubations. Reactions selective for flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs), CYP1B1, CYP2C9, CYP2J2, and CYP3A4 all show significant rates in human lung microsomal incubations, but all activities are higher when rat lung microsomes are used. The work also demonstrates that a lung microsomal intrinsic clearance value towards the lower limit of detection for this parameter (3 µL/min/mg protein) results in a very low level of pulmonary metabolic clearance during the absorption period, for a drug dosed into the lung in vivo. |
