Abstract

Bio-distribution of 64Cu-labelled copper(II) complexes of N,N’-di(aminoethylene)-2,6-pyridinedicarbonylamine, Bis-(N,N-dimethylethyl)-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide and N,N’-bis[2(2-pyridyl)-methyl]pyridine-2,6-pyridine-dicarboxamide was determined using Balb/c mice. Radio labelled copper (II) complexes of peptides mimics were injected in animals intravenously via tail vein and by applying on anterior dorsal side. After 1, 6 and 24 hour post-injection animals were sacrificed and organs or samples removed for measuring activity using gamma counter. Compounds accumulated in various parts of the body 1, 6 and 24 hour post administration. Intravenous and dermal absorption studies showed that these compounds have 50% retention in the body 24 hours after administration.

Introduction

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory, debilitating autoimmune disease for which there is no cure.1,2 However, the symptoms and progression of the disease can be treated using immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory drugs.3,4 The inflammatory process targets primarily the synovial tissue, causing inflammation and subsequent joint damage. Reports in the literature suggest that there is a localized deficiency of copper associated with RA.5 Elevation of copper (II) complex species concentration in the plasma and synovial fluids of RA patients is well reported,.5-7 In vivo, copper exists in three different forms: irreversibly bound to metalloproteins like ceruloplasmin, reversibly bound to plasma proteins like serum albumin and as low molecular mass (lmm) complexes. The latter fraction constitutes the smallest fraction in plasma and the target of this work is to elevate this fraction by either exogenous administration or by mobilizing endogenous copper may be of beneficial.

With this in mind, we have embarked on a programme with the aim of designing compounds that will complex copper and increase its bioavailability and at the same time not disrupt the homeostasis of other endogenous metal ions. The compound must form stable, lipophilic, copper complex capable of surviving in vivo to exert its therapeutic potential at the possible sites of inflammation. In this study we have synthesized compounds which possess some common properties as those of nitrogen containing bio-functional molecules such as oligopeptides.8 The benzyl and pyridyl groups in these compounds are mainly found in most of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and Cu (II)-NSAIDs complexes are reported to be more effective than their parent compounds.9 We study the bio-distribution of these compounds in mice using 64Cu (II) as a radiotracer. This allows the determination of the changed bioavailability and efficacy of these agents in transporting Cu (II) through the body to possible sites of inflammation as well as determining the compound’s in vivo stability. Administration of the agents was performed intravenously through the tail vein and percutaneously on the anterior dorsal side of the mice.

Materials and methods

Animals

Bio-distribution studies on mice were approved by the Research Animals Ethics Committee of the University of Cape Town (permission number 005/039). The procedures for carrying out experiments were done in compliance with the guidelines set by the University of Cape Town Research Animals Ethics Committee. Female Balb/c mice of age 7-8 weeks weighing 19-23 grams supplied by Animal Unit of the University of Cape Town were used in these experiments and were kept in polycarbonate cages and allowed food and water ad libitum.

Radionuclide 64CuCl2 and Peptides mimics

The radioactive 64CuCl2 was supplied by South African Nuclear Energy Cooperation (Ltd). The authority to possess and use radioactive nuclide 64Cu (II) (half-life = 12.7 hours) was granted by the University of Cape Town’s radiation protection and health safety committee in conjunction with Department of Health (authority number 33/01/0327). 64Cu was prepared by neutron irradiation of 1.7-2.5 mg copper (II) oxide (99.9999%, Aldrich Chem. Co., WI, USA) for 24 hours at a thermal neutron flux of 1.0 x 1014 neutrons cm-2 s-1 in a Safari-1 Research Reactor. The targets were dissolved in 1.0 ml, 1.0M HCl and diluted to 3.0 ml with 1.0 M HCl. Typical specific activities of 98 % radioactively pure 64Cu of ~600 MBq mg-1 target material were obtained. Caution: 64Cu decays by positrons emissions, which annihilate to produce tissue penetrating high energy g-radiation. Therefore, it is advisable to use low activity of 64Cu and perform all experiments behind lead bricks inside a fume cupboard.

Synthesis of peptides mimics (Figure 1) in this study has been reported in our previous studies.10,11 Cu(II) complexes of N,N’-di(aminoethylene)-2,6-pyridinedicarbonylamine (L1), Bis-(N,N-dimethylethyl)-2,6-pyridine-dicarboxamide (L2) and N,N’-bis[2(2-pyridyl)-methyl]pyridine-2,6-pyridine-dicarboxamide (L3) characterized from our previous studies, were prepared in sterile saline solution at pH 7.4.10,11 These solutions were spiked with 10-14m Ci 64CuCl2 (aq). The structures of the possible formed species in solution at pH 7.4 are shown in Figure 2.

Bio-distribution by intravenous administration

The experimental approach adopted for these experiments was similar to the approach of several researchers in the field of nuclear medicine.12-14 A total of 48 female Balb/c mice were housed in groups of three (3) mice per cage and were given food and water ad libitum during the investigation period. These groups were injected with 0.2 cm3 of 5 mCi [64Cu] Cu (II)-L solutions via tail vein and another group was injected with 64CuCl2(aq) as a control experiment. Since the body is a dynamic system, the bio-distribution was measured as a function of time. At 1, 6 and 24 hour post-injection time points, groups of mice (three at a time) were anaesthetized by carbon dioxide inhalation and aliquots of blood taken from the heart. Various samples were removed, rinsed with NaCl (0.9 %), dried and then weighed.

Bio-distribution by percutaneous administration

Dermal absorption experiments were performed by applying 0.2 cm3 of 5 mCi solutions to an enclosed portion of skin on the anterior dorsal side of the female Balb/c mice. The application site was prepared 15 hours prior to dosing by clipping an area of approximately 2 x 2 cm on the dorsal side of the test animals. The animals were anaesthetized with a saline solution of ketamine/xylazine following clipping and a small tubing ring (1.2 cm diameter and 0.5 cm height) was fixed to their backs using cyanoacrylate adhesive. At 24 hour post-dosing, groups of mice (four at a time) were anaesthetized by carbon dioxide inhalation and the procedure for removing samples followed that of the intravenous bio-distribution experiments.

Analytical measurements

The radioactivity in all samples including controls as well as the collected urine were counted using a Minaxi Auto-gamma 5000 Series counter with the window set at 340-540 KeV. All readings were corrected for background noise by subtracting the activity of an empty sample bottle and also adjusted to activity at time zero according to the half-life of 64Cu(II) using exponential decay law. The percentages of radio-activity dose per organ and/or per gram (g) tissue were computed from the mean organ weights after correction for radio-activity decay.

Results and discussion

Bio-distribution in female Balb/c mice by intravenous and dermal absorption was measured as a function of time using 64Cu (II) as a tracer. Tables 1 & 2 shows the bio-distribution of 64Cu-labelled Cu (II)–L1, Cu (II)–L2, Cu (II)-L3 and CuCl2 at 1, 6 and 24 hours post-intravenous injection. The results show an initial rapid clearance from the blood circulation and rapid uptake by the liver for all complexes. The high uptake by the liver is expected because copper storage and metabolism occurs in this organ. The [64Cu] CuCl2 used a control, was rapidly excreted via hepatobiliary and renal routes. All the compounds showed much longer biological half-life than those studied by Jackson and co-workers.12,15 About 50% of the activity was retained in the body after 24 hours for these compounds compared to about 20% of the [64Cu] CuCl2 control. This activity accumulation and retention over 24 hours in the body is of interest and merits evaluation of these copper chelating agents for possible design of metal-based anti-inflammatory agents as well as use in chemotherapy and diagnosis. The question of toxicity does arise, as Cu (II) is known to be toxic. However, previous studies, using non-radioactive copper, showed complexed copper complexes to have much lower toxicity than free copper.15-18

Table 2 % Dose unabsorbed and % dose absorbed for the dermal absorption study of [64Cu] Cu (II) complexes of L1, L2 and L3 24 hour post-dosing in Balb/c mice

Anderson and co-workers have investigated thermodynamically and kinetically stable 64Cu-lebelled macrocyclic complexes with different formal charges as bio-functional chelators.16,17 All the complexes were observed to be rapidly cleared from blood circulation and positively charged complexes had higher uptake and slow clearance. In this study, it is interesting to note that the carcass activity is higher after 24 hours than 6 hours. This is because, after the rapid clearance from the blood by the liver, it is slowly released and redistributed into other tissues. For the control, most of the copper is excreted in the urine while for L1, L2 and L3, there is substantial amount in the intestines and retention in the liver.

Of all the various classical ways of drug administration, percutaneous absorption is the preferred route. Therefore, bio-distribution studies were also performed using dermal absorption. The results in Table 2 show that a significant amount of activity is absorbed within 24 hours. However, of note here is that the same bio-distribution as intravenous injection is not obtained as shown in Table 3. This is because of the use of a different route of administration. Of interest is that more activity is retained in the body while less activity is excreted in the urine.

Conclusion

In this study we have shown that compounds which possess some common properties as those of nitrogen containing bio-functional molecules such as oligopeptides can complex copper and increase its in vivo bioavailability. Animal studies showed that L1, L2 and L3 peptides mimics changed the bio-distribution of the copper upon both intravenous and dermal administration.
