Abstract：

:Previous studies suggested that lamotrigene (LTG) underwent bioactivation to a reactive aryl epoxide intermediate in rats. Nevertheless, definitive structures of these thioether conjugates, which are often needed to substantiate the mechanism of bioactivation and identity of reactive intermediate(s), were not fully established. In the present study, GSH, cysteinylglycine, and N-acetyl cysteine conjugates of LTG were isolated from bile of rats orally dosed with LTG (100 mg/kg), and their structures were fully elucidated by LC/MS and NMR. The definitive structural characterization of these metabolites provided evidence for the existence of a reactive aryl epoxide that was trapped as a GSH adduct. In vitro studies using various hepatic cellular and subcellular fractions obtained from human and rat were performed to demonstrate that LTG underwent bioactivation to form a GSH conjugate that was identical to the one initially characterized from in vivo studies. Human P450 2A6 and rat P450 2C11 appeared to be the primary enzymes activating LTG in human and rat liver microsomes, respectively. Interindividual variation in the bioactivation of LTG was demonstrated with 20 individual human liver microsomes. Furthermore, it was shown that human epidermal keratinocytes were capable of forming the same GSH conjugate, suggesting that LTG could be bioactivated in skin cells. The results from these studies suggest that LTG has the potential to undergo hepatic and nonhepatic bioactivation, leading to a reactive aryl epoxide intermediate in human. The bioactivation of LTG in epidermal cells provides a possible explanation for the idiosyncratic cutaneous reactions associated with LTG therapy.
