Evaluation of Age-related Pyrethroid Pharmacokinetic Differences in Rats: Physiologically-based Pharmacokinetic Model Development using In Vitro Data and In Vitro to In Vivo Extrapolation
2019
An in vitro to in vivo (IVIVE) extrapolation based-physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach was demonstrated to understand age-related differences in kinetics and how they potentially affect age-related differences in acute neurotoxic effects of pyrethroids. To describe the age-dependent changes in pyrethroid kinetics, it was critical to incorporate age-dependent changes in metabolism into the model. As such, in vitro metabolism data were collected for 3 selected pyrethroids, deltamethrin (DLM), cis-permethrin, and trans-permethrin, using liver microsomes and cytosol, and plasma prepared from immature and adult rats. Resulting metabolism parameters, maximum rate of metabolism (Vₘₐₓ) and Michaelis-Menten constant (Kₘ), were biologically scaled to respective in vivo parameters for use in the age-specific PBPK model. Then, age-dependent changes in target tissue exposure, i.e., brain Cₘₐₓ, to a given pyrethroid were simulated across ages using the model. The PBPK model recapitulated in vivo time-course plasma and brain concentrations of the 3 pyrethroids in immature and adult rats following oral administration of both low and high doses of these compounds. A single model structure developed for DLM was able to describe the kinetics of the other 2 pyrethroids when used with compound- and age-specific metabolism parameters, suggesting that one generic model for pyrethroids as a group can be used for early age-sensitivity evaluation if appropriate metabolic parameters are used. This study demonstrated the validity of applying IVIVE-based PBPK modeling to development of age-specific PBPK models for pyrethroids in support of pyrethroid risk assessment of potentially sensitive early age populations in humans.
