Proton pump inhibition

Ulcer disorders including the oral mucosa, large intestine, and stomach mucosa, cause significant global health burdens. Conventional treatments such as non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), histamine H2 receptor antagonists (H2 RAs), and cytoprotective agents have drawbacks like mucosal injury, diminish gastric acid secretion, and interact with concurrent medications. Therefore, alternative therapeutic approaches are needed to tackle this health concern. Plants are rich in active metabolites in the bark, roots, leaves, fruits, and seeds, and have been utilized for medicinal purposes since ancient times...

Multidrug therapeutic hybrids constitute a promising proposal to overcome problems associated with traditional formulations containing physical mixtures of drugs, potentially improving pharmacological and pharmaceutical performance. Indomethacin (IND) is a non-selective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs) that acts by inhibiting normal processes of homeostasis, causing a series of side effects, such as gastrointestinal symptoms. Proton pump inhibitors, such as omeprazole (OME), have been used to treat such gastrointestinal tract symptoms...

BACKGROUND: The mechanism by which proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) alter gut microbiota remains to be elucidated. We aimed to learn whether PPI induced gut microbiota alterations by promoting oral microbial translocation. METHODS: Healthy adult volunteers were randomly assigned: PP group (n=8, 40 mg esomeprazole daily for seven days) and PM group (n=8, 40 mg esomeprazole along with chlorhexidine mouthwash after each meal for seven days). Fecal and saliva samples were analysed using 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing...

The steady flow of lactic acid (LA) from tumor cells to the extracellular space via the monocarboxylate transporter symport system suppresses antitumor T cell immunity. However, LA is a natural energy metabolite that can be oxidized in the mitochondria and could potentially stimulate T cells. Here we show that the lactate-lowering mood stabilizer lithium carbonate (LC) can inhibit LA-mediated CD8+ T cell immunosuppression. Cytoplasmic LA increased the pumping of protons into lysosomes. LC interfered with vacuolar ATPase to block lysosomal acidification and rescue lysosomal diacylglycerol-PKCθ signaling to facilitate monocarboxylate transporter 1 localization to mitochondrial membranes, thus transporting LA into the mitochondria as an energy source for CD8+ T cells...

BACKGROUNDS: Patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) often have esophageal motility abnormalities and weak esophago-gastric junction (EGJ) barrier function, which causes proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-refractory reflux esophagitis (RE). The aims of this study were to clarify the current management of RE and prevalence and risk factors of medication-refractory RE in patients with SSc in Japan. METHODS: A total of 188 consecutive patients with SSc who underwent both esophageal high-resolution manometry (HRM) and esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) were reviewed...

Ribociclib is an orally bioavailable, selective cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor. CDK4/6 inhibition by ribociclib leads to retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein (Rb) reactivation, thereby restoring Rb-mediated cell cycle arrest. Ribociclib is approved for the treatment of patients with hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-negative (HR+/HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC), at the dose of 600 mg once daily (QD) during cycles of 21 days on/7 days off, with optional dose reduction to 400 mg and 200 mg...

Most proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) inhibit the bioactivation of clopidogrel to its active metabolite. There is controversy concerning whether PPIs alter the effectiveness of clopidogrel in reducing the risk of ischemic stroke (IS). We therefore aimed to examine the risk of IS associated with concomitant use of clopidogrel and omeprazole, a PPI commonly used in clinical settings. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan dated from 2000 to 2013...

OBJECTIVES: Long-term consumption of pump inhibitors causes osteoporosis. Some possible mechanisms are gastrin over-secretion and hypochlorhydria. Octreotide is a somatostatin analog that inhibits the secretion of many hormones such as gastrin. This study aimed to assess the effects of pantoprazole on the bone when used with octreotide in an animal model. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-eight male Wistar rats were randomly assigned into 4 groups: A) pantoprazole 3 mg/Kg/day orally; B) Sandostatin LAR 1 mg/month intramuscular injection; C) Pantoprazole and Sandostatin LAR; and D) Control group...

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a highly prevalent neuropsychiatric disorder poorly controlled with pharmacological treatment because of the wide variation in symptom patterns. We analysed real-world data on adverse self-reports and insurance claims to identify a novel therapeutic target for OCD. We found that dopamine D2 receptor (D2 R) agonists increased the incidence of OCD-like symptoms, which were suppressed by the concomitant use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Further, OCD-like repetitive and habitual behaviours were observed in mice repeatedly injected with a D2 R agonist, quinpirole...

UNLABELLED: Because absorption of the oral drug pazopanib depends on gastric pH, concomitant use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)/potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) may inhibit pazopanib absorption by elevating the gastric pH. This study investigated to what extent the concomitant use of PPIs/P-CABs affects treatment with pazopanib in patients with soft tissue sarcoma. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with soft tissue sarcoma who had received at least one dose of pazopanib at our institution, among which those who had received concomitant PPIs/P-CABs were included in this analysis...

The cGAS/STING pathway triggers inflammation upon diverse cellular stresses such as infection, cellular damage, aging, and diseases. STING also triggers noncanonical autophagy, involving LC3 lipidation on STING vesicles through the V-ATPase-ATG16L1 axis, as well as induces cell death. Although the proton pump V-ATPase senses organelle deacidification in other contexts, it is unclear how STING activates V-ATPase for noncanonical autophagy. Here we report a conserved channel function of STING in proton efflux and vesicle deacidification...

INTRODUCTION: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are known to decrease the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. However, concerns have been raised regarding the potential pharmacodynamic interactions of PPIs and antiplatelet drugs with respect to cardiovascular risk. Patients with BCR::ABL1-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and polycythemia vera (PV) often suffer from peptic ulcer disease (PUD) and frequently receive low-dose aspirin due to an intrinsically high thrombotic risk...

Acotiamide is a prokinetic with a novel mechanism of action - an antagonist of muscarinic M1 and M2 receptors and an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. Acetylcholine is the central mediator of the tone of the muscular components of the gastrointestinal tract, increasing its motor activity. Blockade of presynaptic M1 and M2 receptors neutralizes the inhibitory effect of the feedback mechanism on the acetylcholine synthesis, while inhibition of acetylcholinesterase in the synaptic cleft reduces the acetylcholine degradation...

The use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has negative effects on the gastrointestinal tract, but the proton pump inhibitors currently in use only protect against gastrointestinal disease and may even make NSAID-induced enteropathy worse. Therefore, new approaches to treating enteropathy are required. This study aimed to investigate the protective effect of wheat peptides (WPs) against NSAID-induced intestinal damage in mice and their mechanism. Here, an in vivo mouse model was built to investigate the protective and reparative effects of different concentrations of WPs on NSAID-induced intestinal injury...

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) can affect the release of drugs from their dosage forms in vivo by elevating the gastric pH. Our recent clinical study has demonstrated that drug-drug interactions (DDIs) exist between a PPI, omeprazole, and nifedipine extended-release formulations, where systemic exposure of nifedipine was increased in subjects after multiple-dose pretreatment of omeprazole. However, the mechanism of the observed DDIs between omeprazole and nifedipine has not been well-understood, as the DDI may also be mediated through CYP3A4 enzyme inhibition in addition to the elevated gastric pH caused by omeprazole...

BACKGROUND: Owing to its strong acid inhibition, potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB) based regimens for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication are expected to offer clinical advantages over proton pump inhibitor (PPI) based regimens. This study aims to compare the efficacy and adverse effects of a 7-day and a 14-day P-CAB-based bismuth-containing quadruple regimen (PC-BMT) with those of a 14-day PPI-based bismuth-containing quadruple regimen (P-BMT) in patients with high clarithromycin resistance...

Pantoprazole decreases the acidity of the tumor microenvironment by inhibiting proton pumps on the cancer cell. This possibly leads to increased sensitivity to cytotoxic therapy. We conducted a phase I/II randomized controlled trial in adult patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) planned for first-line palliative chemotherapy. Patients were randomized to chemotherapy + / - intravenous (IV) pantoprazole. The primary endpoint in phase I was to determine the maximum safe dose of intravenous pantoprazole, whereas it was progression-free survival (PFS) in phase II...

PURPOSE: While several studies reported the influence of co-medications on immune checkpoint therapy and chemotherapy, it remains poorly studied with targeted therapy. Targeted therapies inhibiting BRAF and MEK had significantly improved management of advanced melanoma with BRAFV600 mutation over the last decade, we aimed to investigate the possible influence of co-mediations on the efficacy and toxicity of these targeted therapies (TT). METHODS: We conducted an observational study identifying patients with advanced melanoma treated with BRAF/MEK inhibitors between 2013 and 2020 in the Bordeaux University Hospital...

Like other insects, secretion by mosquito Malpighian tubules (MTs) is driven by the V-type H+ -ATPase (VA) localized in the apical membrane of principal cells. In Aedes aegypti , the antidiuretic neurohormone CAPA inhibits secretion by MTs stimulated by select diuretic hormones; however, the cellular effectors of this inhibitory signaling cascade remain unclear. Herein, we demonstrate that the VA inhibitor bafilomycin selectively inhibits serotonin (5HT)- and calcitonin-related diuretic hormone (DH31 )-stimulated secretion...

BACKGROUND: The REVISE (Re-Evaluating the Inhibition of Stress Erosions in the ICU) trial will evaluate the impact of the proton pump inhibitor pantoprazole compared to placebo in invasively ventilated critically ill patients. OBJECTIVE: To outline the statistical analysis plan for the REVISE trial. METHODS: REVISE is a randomized clinical trial ongoing in intensive care units (ICUs) internationally. Patients ≥ 18 years old, receiving invasive mechanical ventilation, and expected to remain ventilated beyond the calendar day after randomization are allocated to either 40 mg pantoprazole intravenously or placebo while mechanically ventilated...
