Effects of clonidine and idazoxan on tetrathiomolybdate-induced copper and lysosomal enzyme excretion into sheep bile
چکیده انگلیسی

This study investigated the effects of intravenous (IV) administration of tetrathiomolybdate (TTM), and α2-adrenergic agonist clonidine (CLO) and α2-antagonist idazoxan (IDA), alone or in combination with TTM, on sheep fed low (LCu) and high (HCu) copper diets. Effects on bile flow, biliary Cu concentration and excretion, plasma Cu concentration, and lysosomal enzyme β-glucuronidase (β-GLU) activity in bile and plasma were determined. Tetrathiomolybdate alone or with CLO or IDA significantly enhanced biliary Cu excretion most likely by removing Cu from hepatocyte lysosomes as evidenced by a significant increase in β-GLU enzyme activity in bile. A significant increase in plasma β-GLU concentration occurred only in sheep treated with CLO in combination with TTM. Because of the lytic nature of the lysosomal enzymes, caution is advocated in use of drugs, especially α2-adrenergic agonists, to further enhance TTM-induced biliary Cu excretion in the treatment of chronic Cu poisoning in sheep.
