Drug Information
THE QUANTITATIVE STUDY OF THE INVERSION OF D-ETHIONINE INTO L-ETHIONINE IN VIVO, MEASURED IN THE LIVER OF RATS BY THE FORMATION OF S-ADENOSYLETHIONINE FROM L-ETHIONINE, DEMONSTRATES HIGH EFFICIENCY OF THIS CONVERSION WHEN LOWER DOSES OF D-ETHIONINE ARE USED. AT HIGHER DOSES (MORE THAN 25 MG (80 UMOL)/100 G BODY WT), ACCUMULATION OF S-ADENOSYLETHIONINE IS RETARDED. THIS DECR OF S-ADENOSYLETHIONINE FORMATION MAY BE DUE TO AN UNKNOWN EFFECT OF D-ETHIONINE ON THE L-ETHIONINE METABOLISM.
RATS FED 0.25% DL-ETHIONINE FOR 3 DAYS SHOWED ELEVATED TRNA METHYLTRANSFERASE & INHIBITED GLYCINE METHYLTRANSFERASE LEVELS IN THE LIVER. THESE CHANGES PERSIST THROUGHOUT THE CARCINOGENIC REGIME & SIMILAR TRENDS WERE OBSERVED IN ETHIONINE-INDUCED LIVER TUMORS. D-ETHIONINE WAS EQUALLY EFFECTIVE IN ELEVATING TRNA METHYLTRANSFERASE IN THE LIVER, IN BOTH MALE & FEMALE RATS.|/ETHIONINE/ INHIBITS THE INCORPORATION OF METHIONINE AND GLYCINE INTO RAT PROTEIN IN VIVO AND THE CONVERSION OF METHIONINE INTO CYSTEINE. ETHIONINE IS DEETHYLATED, AND THE ETHYL GROUP APPEARS IN ANALOGUES OF METABOLITES KNOWN TO PARTICIPATE IN TRANSMETHYLATION REACTIONS, EG ETHYL CHOLINE. IN THE RAT IT IS ITSELF INCORPORATED INTO ABNORMAL PROTEINS COMPETITIVELY, BUT ITS AFFINITY IS ONLY 1/600 THAT OF METHIONINE.
These agents /including ethionine/ cause hepatic damage by interfering with essential metabolic pathways, which leads to cytotoxic (necrosis or steatosis) and/or cholestatic (biliary stasis) injury patterns. /Ethionine/
