Description
Summary:The pharmacokinetics of succinate was studied in Wistar rats after a single intravenous administration of Mexidol in a dose 100 mg/kg body weight. The concentration of succinate in blood plasma, cytoplasmic and mitochondrial fractions of cells of the cerebral cortex, left-ventricular myocardium, and liver was measured by HPLC-MS/MS. After single intravenous administration of Mexidol, succinate was evenly distributed in organs and tissues and quickly eliminated from the body. The pharmacokinetics of succinate was described by a two-chamber model. An increase in the level of succinate in the cytoplasmic fraction of the liver, myocardium, and cerebral cortex cells and a minor increase in the mitochondrial fraction were observed. The maximum increase in the level of succinate in the cytoplasmic fraction was observed in the liver tissue, a less pronounced elevation was observed in the cerebral cortex and myocardium; no significant differences between the cerebral cortex and myocardium were observed by this parameter.
