Product Description
Cimetidine sulfoxide (Cimetidine sulphoxide) is a sulfoxide metabolite of Cimetidine. Cimetidine is a histamine H2-receptor (H2-receptor) antagonist that may be utilized in the research/study of peptic ulcers and upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
Cimetidine sulfoxide (Cimetidine sulphoxide, CAS 54237-72-8) is a sulfoxide metabolite of Cimetidine. Cimetidine is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist used for the treatment of peptic ulcer disease and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. As the primary metabolite of Cimetidine, Cimetidine sulfoxide retains H2-receptor antagonist activity. The compound is used in research to study drug metabolism and the pharmacology of H2-receptor antagonists.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary target of Cimetidine sulfoxide is the histamine H2 receptor, for which it acts as an antagonist. As a metabolite of Cimetidine, it retains the ability to bind to H2 receptors, although with potentially different affinity compared to the parent compound. The H2 receptor is involved in gastric acid secretion, and its antagonism is the basis for the therapeutic effects of Cimetidine in peptic ulcer disease.
ln Vitro
At lower substrate concentrations (40 and 200 μM), active transport of cimetidine was identified in the rat small intestine; at higher concentrations (400 μM), passive transport obscured the active transport. Following some incubation, cimetidine sulfoxide can be found [2].
In vitro, Cimetidine sulfoxide demonstrates H2-receptor antagonist activity, consistent with its role as a metabolite of Cimetidine. The compound is studied in vitro to understand the metabolic fate of Cimetidine and the pharmacological activity of its metabolites. It is used in enzyme assays to study sulfoxidation reactions and cytochrome P450-mediated metabolism. These in vitro activities support research on drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and the pharmacology of H2-receptor antagonists.
ln Vivo
Cimetidine (30 mg/kg; p.o.) was given to male Wistar rats, and 24 hours later, the enantiomeric makeup of cimetidine sulfoxide was also identified in the urine of the rats. This example has an enantiomeric ratio of (+/-) 57:43[3].
In vivo, Cimetidine sulfoxide is formed as the primary metabolite of Cimetidine following oral administration. The compound contributes to the overall pharmacological effects of Cimetidine, although its specific in vivo activity may differ from the parent drug. It is excreted in urine and can be measured as a biomarker of Cimetidine metabolism. The compound is used in pharmacokinetic studies to assess metabolic pathways and drug clearance.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for Cimetidine sulfoxide include H2 receptor binding assays using radioligand competition studies. The compound is incubated with H2 receptor-expressing cell membranes and a labeled H2 receptor ligand (e.g., [3H]-tiotidine) at concentrations ranging from 0.1 nM-100 μM. Binding affinity (Ki) is determined by competitive displacement curves. Functional assays measure the compound's ability to inhibit histamine-induced cAMP production in H2 receptor-expressing cells. All assays include Cimetidine as a positive control and appropriate vehicle controls.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Cimetidine sulfoxide are conducted using cells expressing the H2 receptor (e.g., gastric parietal cells or transfected cell lines). Cells are treated with Cimetidine sulfoxide at concentrations ranging from 0.01-100 μM, and H2 receptor-mediated signaling is assessed by measuring cAMP levels or downstream signaling markers. The compound's ability to inhibit histamine-induced responses is evaluated. Cell viability is assessed using standard assays. Experiments include Cimetidine as a positive control and vehicle controls. All experiments are performed in triplicate.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies with Cimetidine sulfoxide are limited, as the compound is primarily studied as a metabolite rather than a therapeutic agent. Pharmacokinetic studies in rodents or other species involve administering Cimetidine and measuring Cimetidine sulfoxide levels in plasma and urine. The compound is also used in drug interaction studies to assess the effects of other drugs on Cimetidine metabolism. Each group consists of 6-10 animals with appropriate controls. Direct administration of Cimetidine sulfoxide is less common.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Cimetidine sulfoxide include its formation as the primary metabolite of Cimetidine through hepatic sulfoxidation. The compound has a longer half-life than Cimetidine in some cases and is excreted primarily via renal elimination. Its formation and clearance are influenced by cytochrome P450 enzyme activity and renal function. The compound can be measured in plasma and urine as a biomarker of Cimetidine metabolism and clearance. Detailed PK parameters are available from Cimetidine metabolism studies.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Cimetidine sulfoxide are derived from studies of Cimetidine metabolism. As a metabolite of an approved drug, it is considered to have a favorable safety profile at concentrations achieved following therapeutic Cimetidine dosing. No significant toxicity has been attributed specifically to Cimetidine sulfoxide. However, comprehensive toxicological studies of the metabolite alone are limited. As with all research chemicals, appropriate safety precautions should be taken during handling.
