Given that statins are lipid-lowering agents frequently used in RA patients with concurrent cardiovascular diseases, the objective of the present study was to investigate the impacts of RA on the pharmacokinetics of statins of different disposition properties in rats with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). The expression of metabolic enzymes and transporters in tissues of CIA rats were analyzed by RT-qPCR. Statins were given to CIA rats and controls through different routes, respectively. Blood samples were collected and analyzed by UPLC/MS/MS. Isolated microsomes and hepatocytes were used to determine the metabolic and uptake clearance of statins. The results showed that, compared with controls, the mRNA levels of intestinal Cyp3a1 and hepatic Cyp2c6, Cyp2c7, Cyp3a1, Oatp1a1, Oatp1b2, Oatp1a4, and Mrp2 were markedly decreased in the CIA rats. The maximal metabolic activities of Cyp2c and Cyp3a were reduced in liver microsomes of CIA rats. When given orally or injected through hepatic portal vein, the systemic levels of fluvastatin, simvastatin, and atorvastatin, but not of rosuvastatin and pravastatin, were increased in CIA rats. The metabolic clearance of simvastatin and hepatic uptake clearance of fluvastatin and atorvastatin were decreased in CIA rats. These findings suggest that the changes in the expression of enzymes and/or transporters in CIA rats differentially affect the pharmacokinetics of statins. ? 2017 Elsevier Inc. |
