作用機序
Target of Action
Ivermectin B1a, also known as Ivermectin, primarily targets glutamate-gated chloride channels . These channels are common in nematodes, insects, and ticks . The role of these channels is to regulate the flow of chloride ions across the cell membrane, which is crucial for cell function and neurotransmission .
Mode of Action
Ivermectin B1a interacts with its targets by binding to these glutamate-gated chloride channels . This binding induces irreversible channel opening, leading to a very long-lasting hyperpolarization/depolarization of the neuron/muscle cell, thereby blocking further function . This interaction disrupts normal cell function, leading to paralysis and death of the parasite .
Biochemical Pathways
It is known that the drug interferes with the normal functioning of the targeted glutamate-gated chloride channels . This interference disrupts the normal flow of chloride ions, which is essential for the regulation of electrical activity in nerve and muscle cells . The disruption of these pathways leads to paralysis and death of the parasite .
Pharmacokinetics
Ivermectin B1a is characterized by low absorption when administered subcutaneously, a large volume of distribution, very small biotransformation, and slow excretion . It has been found that the half-life of Ivermectin B1a is around a day . The kinetics of ivermectin b1a are somewhat disconnected from its pharmacodynamics, as antiparasitic events persist for several months after a single dose of the drug .
Result of Action
The primary result of Ivermectin B1a’s action is the effective treatment of various parasitic diseases. It is a broad-spectrum anti-parasitic agent, primarily deployed to combat parasitic worms in veterinary and human medicine . It is also effective against other worm-related infections and diseases, plus several parasite-induced epidermal parasitic skin diseases, as well as insect infestations .
Action Environment
The action of Ivermectin B1a can be influenced by various environmental factors. For instance, when administered to livestock, between 80 and 98% of the drug is estimated to leave the body without being metabolized in feces, thus reaching the soil . This can lead to contamination in the soil and potential harm to non-target organisms . Therefore, the prudent use of Ivermectin B1a is recommended to reduce negative effects on the environment .
生化学分析
Biochemical Properties
Ivermectin B1a exerts its antiparasitic activity by binding to glutamate-gated chloride channels expressed on nematode neurons and pharyngeal muscle cells . This binding induces irreversible channel opening and very long-lasting hyperpolarization/depolarization of the neuron/muscle cell, thereby blocking further function .
Cellular Effects
Ivermectin B1a has been shown to have a broad range of effects on various types of cells. It has been reported to inhibit the replication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in cells . In addition to its antiviral effects, Ivermectin B1a also causes immunomodulation in the host . It has been shown to increase the activity of γ-aminobutyric acid receptor or glutamate-chloride ion channel (Glu-Cl), increase the influx of chloride ions, and cause the cell membrane hyperpolarization, thereby blocking signal transmission between neurons and muscles .
Molecular Mechanism
The molecular mechanism of action of Ivermectin B1a involves binding interactions with biomolecules, enzyme inhibition or activation, and changes in gene expression. Its primary target is glutamate-gated chloride channels, although it is also active against other invertebrate neurotransmitter receptors, including GABA-, histamine- and pH-sensitive channels . It produces antiparasitic activity by inducing irreversible channel opening and very long-lasting hyperpolarization/depolarization of the neuron/muscle cell .
Temporal Effects in Laboratory Settings
The effects of Ivermectin B1a over time in laboratory settings have been studied. For example, an in-vitro study reported that Ivermectin B1a inhibits SARS-CoV-2 replication with a 5000-fold reduction in viral RNA level during the first 48 h of usage . Another study found that single-dose Ivermectin B1a was ineffective in decreasing the time to a negative RT-PCR test .
Dosage Effects in Animal Models
The effects of Ivermectin B1a vary with different dosages in animal models. For example, a study of pharmacokinetics for Ivermectin B1a from Beagle dogs revealed that when the P-gp inhibitor curcumin was also co-administered orally, C max and AUC 0–∞ were found to be 177±57 and 4,213±948 h·μg·L −1, respectively .
Metabolic Pathways
Ivermectin B1a is metabolized, both in vivo and in vitro, by C-hydroxylation and O-demethylation reactions catalyzed by P450 3A4 as the major enzyme, with a contribution of P450 3A5 and 2C9 . In samples from both in vitro and in vivo metabolism, a number of metabolites were detected and as major identified metabolites were 3″-O-demethylated, C4-methyl hydroxylated, C25 isobutyl-/isopropyl-hydroxylated, and products of oxidation reactions .
Transport and Distribution
Ivermectin B1a is transported and distributed within cells and tissues. It is suggested that P-gp (MDR1) transporter participate in Ivermectin B1a efflux at low drug concentration with a slow transport rate. At the higher, micromolar concentration range, which saturates MDR1 (P-gp), MRP1, and to a lesser extent, MRP2 and MRP3 participate in Ivermectin B1a transport across physiological barriers .
Subcellular Localization
It is known that Ivermectin B1a can modulate the γ-aminobutyric acid type-A receptor (GABAAR), glycine receptor (GlyR) and neuronal α7-nicotinic receptor (nAChR), which are present in various subcellular locations .
準備方法
Ivermectin B1a is synthesized from the fermentation products of the bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis. The preparation involves several steps:
Protection of Hydroxyl Groups: The 4’'-position hydroxyl and 5
特性
| Ivermectin binds selectively and with high affinity to glutamate-gated chloride ion channels in invertebrate muscle and nerve cells of the microfilaria. This binding causes an increase in the permeability of the cell membrane to chloride ions and results in hyperpolarization of the cell, leading to paralysis and death of the parasite. Ivermectin also is believed to act as an agonist of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), thereby disrupting GABA-mediated central nervous system (CNS) neurosynaptic transmission. Ivermectin may also impair normal intrauterine development of _O. volvulus_ microfilariae and may inhibit their release from the uteri of gravid female worms. | |
