The widely used analgesic-antipyretic drug acetaminophen (APAP) is known to cause serious liver necrosis at high doses in man and experimental animals. For studies of toxic processes, 1H NMR spectroscopy of biofluids allows monitoring of endogenous metabolite profiles that alter characteristically in response to changes in physiological status. Herein, a 1H NMR metabolomics approach was applied to the investigation of APAP toxicity in rats and the effect of phenobarbital (PB) on APAP-induced hepatotoxicity. Metabolite differences due to hepatotoxicity were observed in 1H NMR spectra of serum and urine, and enhanced APAP hepatotoxicity by pretreatment with PB was clearly shown by a principal components analysis of the spectral data. NMR spectra of APAP-dosed rat urine provided profiles of APAP-related compounds together with endogenous metabolites. By comparison of endogenous and APAP-related metabolite spectra with those from rats pretreated with PB, it was possible to show the importance of oxidative metabolism of APAP to N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone, an essential step in APAP hepatotoxicity.

The metabolomic profiles of rat primary hepatocytes following treatment with rotenone, FCCP, or (+)-usnic acid were determined using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Significant and similar changes in the levels of 283 biochemical metabolites were associated with the three treatments compared with solvent control samples. Overall, the three treatments generated similar global biochemical profiles, with some minor differences associated with rotenone treatment. All three treatments resulted in a shift in energy metabolism as demonstrated by decreased glycogen stores and glycolysis. A reduced antioxidant response was detected in cells following all treatments. In addition, bile acid biosynthesis decreased as a potential consequence of increased oxidative stress by all three treatments. Conversely, rotenone treatment induced a number of changes after 1 hr, which were not detected in FCCP- or (+)-usnic acid-treated samples; these changes were not sustained over time and included increased NAD+ salvage and lysine degradation. In conclusion, these biochemical profiles could provide new insights into the mechanism(s) of mitochondrial toxicity.
