الوصف: | This study investigated the transport of tiazofurin (2-beta-D-ribofuranosyl thiazole-4-carboxamide) across the blood-aqueous humor barrier, using the vascular perfusion method in the guinea pig. Volume of distribution (Vd) of [3H] tiazofurin increased almost linearly in time, from 4% of its plasma concentration at 3 min to 10% after 12 min of perfusion. Unidirectional transport constant, K(in) was 7.01 +/- 1.06 x 10(-3) ml/min/g. These results indicate that tiazofurin penetrates the aqueous humor to a considerable extent. Addition of unlabelled tiazofurin to the perfusing medium caused a significant decrease in the uptake of [3H] labelled tiazofurin (K(in) = 2.60 +/- 0.91 x 10(-3) ml/min/g). Therefore, penetration of tiazofurin from blood into aqueous humor seems to be a saturable process with a diffusional component that cannot be disregarded. Such findings could be of considerable importance since this molecule is known to affect tissue metabolism. |
