Abstract
PURPOSE Quantification of olanzapine (OLZ) and its metabolites such as N-desmethylolanzapine (DM-O), 2-hydroxymethylolanzapine (2H-O) and olanzapine N-oxide (NO-O) in five kinds of human body fluids including whole blood by liquid chromatography (LC)-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) has been presented; the quantification methods were carefully devised and validated using the matrix-matched calibration and standard addition methods. METHODS OLZ and its three metabolites were extracted from 40 μL each of body fluids by two-step liquid-liquid separations. The samples and reagents were pre-cooled in a container filled with ice for the extraction because of the thermal instability of OLZ and its three metabolites especially in whole blood. RESULTS The limits of quantification (LOQs) of OLZ and 2H-O were 0.05 ng/mL and those of DM-O and NO-O were 0.15 ng/mL in whole blood and urine, respectively. The concentrations of OLZ and its metabolites in heart whole blood, pericardial fluid, stomach contents, bile and urine were determined for two cadavers and those in whole blood and urine for the other two cadavers. The reduction from NO-O to OLZ was observed at 25 ℃ in whole blood in vitro. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first report on the quantification of metabolites of olanzapine in the authentic human body fluids by LC-MS/MS as well as on the confirmation of in vitro reduction from NO-O to OLZ in whole blood that seems to have induced the quick decrease of NO-O.

Abstract
Concomitant use of alcohol and medications may lead to potentially serious medical conditions. Increasing prescription medication abuse in today's society necessitates a deeper understanding of the mechanisms involved in alcohol-medication interactions in order to help prevent adverse events. Interactions of medications with alcohol result in altered bioavailability of the medication or alcohol (pharmacokinetic interactions) or modification of the effects at receptor or ion channel sites to alter behavioral or physical outcome (pharmacodynamic interactions). The nature of pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic interactions involved in alcohol-medication interactions may differ between acute and chronic alcohol use and be influenced by race, gender, or environmental or genetic factors. This review focuses on the mechanisms underlying pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions between alcohol and medications and provides examples for such interactions from replicated research studies. In conclusion, further translational research is needed to address several gaps in our current knowledge of alcohol-medication interactions, including those under various pathologic conditions.

Abstract
A simple, sensitive and rapid liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the quantification of olanzapine, atypical antipsychotic drug, in human plasma using loratadine as internal standard (IS). Following liquid-liquid extraction, the analytes were separated using an isocratic mobile phase on a reverse phase C18 column and analyzed by MS in the multiple reaction monitoring mode using the respective [M+H]+ ions, m/z 313/256 for olanzapine and m/z 383/337 for the IS. The assay exhibited a linear dynamic range of 0.1-30 ng/mL for olanzapine in human plasma. The lower limit of quantification was 100 pg/mL with a relative standard deviation of less than 10%. Acceptable precision and accuracy were obtained for concentrations over the standard curve range. The average absolute recovery of olanzapine from spiked plasma samples was 85.5+/-1.9%. A run time of 2.0 min for each sample made it possible to analyze more than 400 human plasma samples per day. The validated method has been successfully used to analyze human plasma samples for application in pharmacokinetic, bioavailability or bioequivalence studies.

Abstract
Imatinib (Gleevec) is an anticancer drug that inhibits specific protein kinases involved in cell proliferation. Whereas this drug is considered to have opened a new era, various mechanisms of resistance have been associated with imatinib relapse. Drug disposition in cancer cells including influx, efflux and drug metabolism is one mechanism that remains to be more thoroughly investigated. Moreover, recent genomic studies have revealed that some isozymes of cytochrome P450 (CYP) are possibly associated with the treatment outcome. Therefore, this research paper investigates the role of the activity of CYP1A1, 1A2, 1B1, 3A4, 4F2 and 4F3A/B on the fate of imatinib. First, a study of imatinib fragmentation was effected using electrospray triple-quadrupole and linear ion trap tandem mass spectrometers (MSn). Accurate mass determinations were performed at enhanced mass resolution for the identification of some product ions that were not predicted by two fragmentation softwares. Whereas the quadrupole MS was not designed for accurate mass measurement, delta mass errors were below 20 ppm. Then, a biotransformation study was effected in vitro. Imatinib metabolites were produced in microsomal incubations containing CYP isozymes. Imatinib and metabolites were extracted from incubation mixtures by protein precipitation, and supernatants were injected into a liquid chromatography equipment coupled with MS(n). Hydrophobic interaction liquid chromatography resolved one demethylated-, two hydroxy- and three N-oxide metabolites. Various rates of metabolite formation were observed between CYP isozymes. Liquid chromatography with deuterium oxide-containing mobile phase (H/D exchange) or incorporation of (18)O from H(2) (18)O added in the incubations was performed to elucidate the metabolite structure. Various MS(n) product scans (n < or = 4) were acquired on the linear ion trap or on the triple-quadrupole MS. Postulated structures of new metabolites are addressed.

Abstract
Olanzapine is a widely used, newer antipsychotic agent, which is metabolized by various pathways: hydroxylation and N-demethylation by cytochrome P450, N-oxidation by flavin monooxygenase and direct glucuronidation. In vivo studies have pointed towards the latter pathway as being of major importance. Accordingly, the glucuronidation reaction was studied in vitro using cDNA-expressed human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzymes and a pooled human liver microsomal preparation (HLM). Glucuronidated olanzapine was determined by HPLC after acid or enzymatic hydrolysis. The following UGT-isoenzymes were screened for their ability to glucuronidate olanzapine: 1A1, 1A3, 1A4, 1A6, 1A9, 2B7 and 2B15. Only UGT1A4 was able to glucuronidate olanzapine obeying saturation kinetics. The K(m) value was 227 micromol/l (SE 43), i.e. of the same order of magnitude as for other psychotropic drugs, and the V(max) value was 2370 pmol/(min mg) (SE 170). Glucuronidation was also mediated by the HLM preparation, but a saturation level was not reached. The olanzapine glucuronidation reaction was inhibited by several drugs known as substrates for UGT1A4, e.g. amitriptyline, trifluoperazine and lamotrigine. Thus, competition for glucuronidation by UGT1A4 represents a possibility for drug-drug interactions in subjects receiving several of these psychotropic drugs at the same time. Whether such possible interactions are of any clinical importance may await further studies in patients.
