Omeprazole and pantoprazole are known to be irreversible, SH-acting inhibitors of gastric H+,K+-adenosine triphosphatase (H+,K+-ATPase). Both drugs concentration-dependently and pH-dependently inhibited K+-dependent p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (K+-pNPPase) activity in purified rabbit gastric microsomes. The potency of omeprazole was about three times that of pantoprazole in the pH ranges tested. Both drugs also inhibited acid secretion, as determined by [14C]aminopyrine accumulation in isolated rabbit gastric glands, with the potency ratio being about 5 (omeprazole over that of pantoprazole). Under conditions in which acid secretion was inhibited completely by the drugs, the total K+-pNPPase activity in the digitonin-permeabilized glands was scarcely reduced, showing an apparent discrepancy between the acid secretion and the proton pump activity. The isolated glands were stimulated with secretagogues for 30 min in the presence of the inhibitors, homogenized, and then separated into fractions in which K+-pNPPase activity was measured. Omeprazole exclusively inhibited the activity in the low-speed fraction, which was rich in the apical membranes, whereas pantoprazole did not inhibit activity in any fraction. When the time of treatment with the inhibitors was increased up to 5 hr, the inhibition of the total K+-pNPPase activity in the glands reached a plateau at an inhibition rate lower than 50% within 2 hr. This suggested that no continuous recycling of the proton pump was occurring during stimulation. The inhibitory effect of both drugs on the permeabilized gland preparation was less potent than that on the purified enzyme, especially at the higher pH, and it appeared to be partially reversible. The extent of the reduction in potency was more prominent for pantoprazole. It is concluded that a lower amount of proton pump activity needs to be inhibited by pantoprazole than by omeprazole to achieve the same extent of acid secretion inhibition. This appears to be due to the nature of pantoprazole, i.e. the requirement of low pH for activation and the partial reversibility of the inhibition.

NorA is a membrane-associated multidrug efflux protein that can decrease susceptibility to fluoroquinolones in Staphylococcus aureus. We have previously determined that NorA inhibition can increase fluoroquinolone killing activity and post-antibiotic effect. In the current investigation, we studied the killing activity and development of resistance for levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin and norfloxacin with or without the H+/K+ ATPase inhibitor omeprazole, in a wild-type strain of S. aureus (SA-1199) and its NorA hyperproducing mutant (SA-1199-3) in an in-vitro pharmacodynamic model with infected fibrin-platelet matrices. Each drug was administered every 12-24 h for 72 h and human pharmacokinetics were simulated. Levofloxacin was the most potent fluoroquinolone against both strains and its activity was not significantly affected by combination with omeprazole. The addition of omeprazole to ciprofloxacin significantly lowered colony counts at all time-points against both strains and decreased the time to 99.9% kill from 72.2 h to 33.8 h against SA-1199. The addition of omeprazole minimally increased norfloxacin activity against both strains. Omeprazole decreased the frequency of ciprofloxacin resistance nearly 100-fold at the 24 h time-point, but the frequency of resistance was not significantly different for any of the fluoroquinolone regimens after this time-point. No resistance was detected during levofloxacin regimens. The hydrophobic fluoroquinolones such as levofloxacin appear to circumvent NorA efflux, which may contribute to their better activity and decreased resistance rates against staphylococci. More durable and potent NorA inhibitor compounds are needed that can improve killing activity and prevent resistance.

The present experiments were designed to investigate the effects of omeprazole, a H(+)-K+ ATPase inhibitor, on corporal smooth muscle tone in vitro. All spontaneous contractile activity in the corpus cavernosum was blocked following omeprazole (0.1 mM-1 mM) administration. However atropine (1 microM), Nw-nitro L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, 30 microM) or indomethacin (10 microM) did not affect the spontaneous contraction. Omeprazole (10 microM-1 mM) concentration-dependently induced relaxation in corporal smooth muscle precontracted with 10 microM phenylephrine or 80 mM KCl. Pretreatment of corporal tissue with L-NAME (30 microM), indomethacin (10 microM), ammonium chloride (7.5 mM), sodium acetate (7.5 mM), tetraethyl ammonium chloride (0.5 mM) or glibenclamide (1 microM) had no effect on the omeprazole induced relaxant responses. Nimodipine, an L-type Ca++ channel blocker, relaxed corporal strips precontracted with 80 mM KCl. Collectively, these results indicate that the inhibition of spontaneous contraction and the relaxation of precontracted corporal smooth muscle by omeprazole is probably mediated by the blockade of calcium channels. Further work is needed to determine the cellular mechanism(s) of action by which omeprazole acts on corpus cavernosum smooth muscle.

The inhibitory effects of IY-81149 (2-[[(4-methoxy-3-methyl)-2- pyridinyl]methyl-sulfinyl]-5-(1H-pyrol-1-yl)-1H-benzimidazole, CAS 172152-36-2), a newly developed proton pump inhibitor (PPI) on gastric acid secretion were investigated in vitro and in vivo. In rabbit parietal cell preparation, IY-81149 irreversibly inhibited H+/K(+)-ATPase in dose-dependent manner with an IC50 of pump inhibitory activity of 6.0 x 10(-6) mol/l and that of omeprazole (CAS 73590-58-6) was 1 x 10(-4) mol/l at pH 7.4. On cumulation of 14C-aminopyrine in histamine stimulated parietal cells, the IC50 of IY-81149 was 9.0 x 10(-9) mol/l and that of omeprazole was 1.9 x 10(-8) mol/l. The inhibition rates of IY-81149 and omeprazole at a concentration of 1 x 10(-9) mol/l in human parietal cells were 137% and 64%, respectively. In pylorus-ligated rats, IY-81149 showed a 2-3 times stronger inhibitory activity than omeprazole against gastric acid secretion. The ED50 of IY-81149 and omeprazole administered intraduodenally was 1.6 mg/kg and 3.8 mg/kg. In the case of oral administration, the ED50 of IY-81149 and omeprazole was 1.94 mg/kg and 5.64 mg/kg, respectively. But after 24 h administration, the anti-secretory activity of IY-81149 was lower than that of omeprazole at all doses tested. In anesthetized rats, IY-81149 dose-dependently increased gastric pH which was lowered by histamine infusion. In the case of i.v. injection, the ED50 of IY-81149 and omeprazole was 1.2 and 1.4 mg/kg and in the case of i.d. administration, the ED50 of IY-81149 and omeprazole was 3.9 and 4.1 mg/kg, respectively. IY-81149 also significantly inhibited pentagastrin-stimulated gastric secretion. Its ED50 was 2.1 mg/kg and that of omeprazole was 3.5 mg/kg with i.d. administration. In the case of i.v. injection, IY-81149 was equipotent to omeprazole. IY-81149 also inhibited gastric acid secretion strongly in fistular rats. The ED50 of IY-81149 administered intraduodenally was 0.43 mg/kg and that of omeprazole was 0.68 mg/kg. In Heidenhain pouch dogs, the acid output was completely blocked at 0.3 mg/kg, 135 min after i.v. administration. Omeprazole showed a similar effect as IY-81149. The histamine induced increase of acid output in the Heidenhain pouch dog was blocked by 71% 150 min after oral administration of enteric-coated IY-81149 at a dose of 3 mg/kg, and omeprazole showed similar effects. In conclusion, IY-81149 revealed the characteristics as a strong proton pump inhibitor, and its potency against gastric acid secretion was superior to that of the reference drug, omeprazole.

Omeprazole has long been used as an effective agent to treat peptic ulcer. Recent studies have shown that in addition to inhibiting the H(+)-K(+)ATPase, it also inhibits carbonic anhydrase (CA) types I, II and IV. This led us to investigate its anticonvulsant effect in a rat model of electroconvulsion. Since other carbonic anhydrase inhibitors like acetazolamide induce tolerance upon repeated use, we tested the tolerance potential of omeprazole upon repeated administration of up to 1 week. The animals were divided into four groups receiving normal saline, omeprazole 0.5, 1 or 2 mg/kg intraperitoneally. CC(50), i.e. the threshold current inducing tonic hind limb extension in 50% of the rats was established using a technoconvulsometer which delivers currents of varying intensity via ear clip electrodes. The CC(50) was established 30 min after injection of omeprazole. In another group of rats, omeprazole 2 mg/kg was given for 6 days and the CC(50) determined on days 0, 1, 3 and 6. Also the concentration of omeprazole in the brain was determined using high performance liquid chromatography. The CC(50) in vehicle-treated rats was 98 mA, which increased to 126, 135 and 162 mA with 0.5, 1 and 2 mg/kg of omeprazole, respectively. On repeat-dose studies the CC(50) on day 0 was 96 mA, on day 1 166 mA, on day 3 129 mA and on day 6 102 mA. The average brain concentration of omeprazole was 53.2+/-6.9 ng/g of brain tissue. In conclusion, this study has shown omeprazole to be an effective anticonvulsant, but rapidly develops tolerance to its anticonvulsant action. This study can stimulate interest in the development of agents with dual function -- inhibition of CA as well as the accompanying Na(+)-K(+) ATPase -- and such agents may prove to be effective anticonvulsants without exhibiting tolerance.

Hypericin and hypocrellin are potential antiviral and antineoplastic agents with multiple modes of light-induced biological activity connected with a production of singlet oxygen and/or excited-state proton transfer and consequent pH drop formation in the drugs environment. In present work light-induced cytotoxicity of hypericin (1 x 10(-5) - 10(-9) mol) and hypocrellin (1 x 10(-5) - 10(-9) mol) and potentiating effect of omeprazole on human leukemic cell line HL-60 was studied. Under dark condition cultivation none cytotoxicity was observed. The only one exception was hypocrellin in concentration 1 x 10(-5) mol which displayed full cytotoxic effect. However, illumination increased cytotoxic effect of hypericin and hypocrellin, both. Omeprazole, an inhibitor of H+K+-ATPase, has been used for testing the hypothetical pH decreasing effect of hypericin and hypocrellin in their cytotoxic mechanism of action. The results of our experiments have shown that in HL-60 cell line the effect of hypericin and hypocrellin at 1 x 10(-6) mol (both) was significantly potentiated by omeprazole in concentrations 1 x 10(-6) - 10(-9) mol. Our results support the hypothesis that the excited-state proton transfer and the consequent acidification of hypericin and hypocrellin environment could play a role in the biological activity of both agents.

The benzimidazole compound omeprazole, used widely for the treatment of peptic ulcer disease, inhibits the growth of Leishmania donovani, the causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis. Promastigotes cultured at acidic pH and amastigotes within infected macrophages are reduced 90% or more with 150 microM omeprazole. Antiparasitic action of the drug is due to its inhibition of the P-type K(+),H(+)-ATPase on the surface membrane. This enzyme is important for pH homeostasis and the maintenance of proton motive force across the membrane in Leishmania. The drug is effective only at acidic pH, a condition that mimics the in vivo environment within the phagolysosomal vesicles where the amastigote form of the parasite resides. Omeprazole deserves consideration as an alternative to currently available chemotherapeutics, which have severe toxic side effects.

We investigated the effect of omeprazole (1 x 10(-5)-3 x 10(-4)M), an inhibitor of H(+),K(+)-ATPase, on rat aortic rings pre-contracted with phenylephrine (10(-6)M). Omeprazole relaxed the tissue in a concentration-dependent manner. Either removal of the endothelium or incubation with nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, 3 x 10(-5)M) significantly attenuated the relaxations. Pre-treatment with L-arginine (10(-3)M), but not with D-arginine, reversed the inhibitory action of L-NAME. Indomethacin (10(-6)M) and tetraethylammonium (TEA, 10(-2)M) did not affect the relaxant responses to omeprazole indicating the lack of involvement of cyclooxygenase products and K(+) channels, respectively. These results suggest a role of NO in the mechanism of action of omeprazole.

Gastrozolum is the proprietary name of a drug made in Saint Petersburg. Its international nonproprietary name is Omeprazole. The absorption rate is not related to food. Its pharmacotherapeutic action becomes apparent as an inhibitor of the proton pump leading to the inhibition of H+/K(+)-ATPase of the secretory membrane of parietal cells of the stomach mucous membrane and blocking of the concluding stage of hydrochloric acid secretion. The entire action leads to the decrease of the level of basal and induced secretion regardless of the nature of stimulus. As a result of this, symptoms of stomach ulcer decrease, and gastroduodenal ulcers heal faster. Penetrating into the stomach mucous membrane cells, the drug also has a cytoprotective action. The maximum blood concentration (0.6-1.5 mg/l) is found 2-3 hours after a single intake of 40 mg of the drug. It was determined that after the intake of 20 mg of Gastrozolum its action lasts for 24 hours and provides for the inhibition of both night and day secretion. The ricochet syndrome does not take place when the treatment is over. It was proved that Gastrozolum has a bactericidal action on Helicobacter pylori due to the sharp increase of stomach pH, which contributes to the realization of the effect of used components of the anti-helicobacter therapy. The experiment failed to establish any teratogenic or poisonous action on the embryos. The dosage form is a capsule containing 20 mg of Omeprazole in the form of pellets.

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) [omeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole and esomeprazole] are widely utilised for the treatment of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, as well as other acid-related disorders. All PPIs suppress gastric acid secretion by blocking the gastric acid pump, H(+)/K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), but the physicochemical properties of these drugs result in variations in the degree of acid suppression, as well as the speed of onset of acid inhibition. Such differences may impact on the clinical performance of PPIs, and this manuscript discusses data that may help clinicians choose between the available PPIs for specific clinical situations and indications. The characteristics of PPIs that have been developed subsequent to omeprazole offer several advantages over this prototype PPI, particularly with respect to the onset of acid suppression and reduced potential for inter-individual pharmacokinetic variation and drug interactions. Newer agents inhibit H(+)/K(+)-ATPase more rapidly than omeprazole and emerging clinical data support potential clinical benefits resulting from this pharmacological property. Although key pharmacokinetic parameters (time to maximum plasma concentration and elimination half-life) do not differ significantly among PPIs, differences in the hepatic metabolism of these drugs can produce inter-patient variability in acid suppression, in the potential for pharmacokinetic drug interactions and, quite possibly, in clinical efficacy. All PPIs undergo significant hepatic metabolism. Because there is no direct toxicity from PPIs, there is minimal risk from the administration of any of them - even to patients with significant renal or hepatic impairment. However, there are significant genetic polymorphisms for one of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes involved in PPI metabolism (CYP2C19), and this polymorphism has been shown to substantially increase plasma levels of omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole, but not those of rabeprazole. Hepatic metabolism is also a key determinant of the potential for a given drug to be involved in clinically significant pharmacokinetic drug interactions. Omeprazole has the highest risk for such interactions among PPIs, and rabeprazole and pantoprazole appear to have the lowest risk.Thus, whereas all PPIs have been shown to be generally effective and safely used for the treatment of acid-mediated disorders, there are chemical, pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic differences among these drugs that may make certain ones more, or less, suitable for treating different patient subgroups. Of course, the absolute magnitude of risk from any PPI in terms of drug-drug interactions is probably low - excepting interactions occurring as class effects related to acid suppression (e.g. increased digoxin absorption or inability to absorb ketoconazole).
