Research Excerpts

Toxicity

N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) is protective against acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity primarily by providing precursor for the glutathione synthetase pathway. Reconstitution of SIRT3 levels and/or treatment with N-acetylcy Steine ameliorates these adverse effects.

Bioavailability

The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of suckable tablets and granules of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) have been compared after oral administration of 400 mg doses to 10 healthy volunteers. When purified cells were preincubated with SNP in the presence of 5 mM N- acetylcystine, the downregulation was recovered. These results may provide an explanation for the apparent low bioavailability when administered orally in humans.

Roles (10)

RoleDescription
antiinfective agentA substance used in the prophylaxis or therapy of infectious diseases.
antioxidantA substance that opposes oxidation or inhibits reactions brought about by dioxygen or peroxides.
antiviral drugA substance used in the prophylaxis or therapy of virus diseases.
antidote to paracetamol poisoningA role borne by a molecule that acts to counteract or neutralize the deleterious effects of paracetamol (acetaminophen).
vulneraryA drug used in treating and healing of wounds.
mucolyticA compound that alters the structure of mucus so as to decrease its viscosity and thereby facilitate its removal by ciliary action and expectoration. Compare with antitussives, which suppress the cough reflex, and expectorants, which are considered to increase the volume of secretions in the respiratory tract, so facilitating their removal by ciliary action and coughing.
human metaboliteAny mammalian metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in humans (Homo sapiens).
radical scavengerA role played by a substance that can react readily with, and thereby eliminate, radicals.
ferroptosis inhibitorAny substance that inhibits the process of ferroptosis (a type of programmed cell death dependent on iron and characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides) in organisms.
geroprotectorAny compound that supports healthy aging, slows the biological aging process, or extends lifespan.

Highest Coma Grade of Hepatic Encephalopathy

West Haven Criteria for hepatic encephalopathy (Grade 0 - IV ) is used for participants > 3 year of age. Coma grade IV indicates a participant who is comatose , with no reflexes, is decerebrate and has abnormal EEG changes with very slow delta activity. For participants less than 3 years the Whittington Scale was used. The Whittington scale does not use EEG changes and has only 3 levels, early (grades I and II), Mid (III) with somnolence, stupor, combativeness and Late (IV) for participants who are comatose with absent reflexes and decerebrate or decorticate posturing.

Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales-II (VABS-II)

The VABS-II is a semi-structured interview designed to assess adaptive functioning in the domains of communication, daily living skills and socialization. Items in each domain are rated as either 0 (does not), 1(sometimes) or 2(independently) performs a given behavior or skill. The communication domain has 99 items with scores ranging from 0-198. The daily living skills domain has 109 items with scores ranging from 0-218. The socialization domain has 99 items with scores ranging from 0-198. The domains scores are combined to form the adaptive composite score (ranging from 20-160). The raw scores from the communication, daily living skills and socialization domains along with the composite score were selected for use in this study. Higher scores indicate a higher level of adaptive functioning. (NCT00453180)

Self-Harm Inventory (SHI) Score at 6 Weeks

"The Self-Harm Inventory is assessed by asking an individual to answer (yes or no) if they have ever intentionally, or on purpose tried to harm themselves. The inventory contains 22 questions and a 23rd marked other that allows the individual to indicate a self-harm behavior not previously mentioned.~The scoring of this instrument is determined by counting the number of endorsed self-harm behaviors out of the possible twenty-three asked. The maximum score any individual may achieve for the SHI is a 23. Any individual scoring 5 or greater is classified as suffering from BPD.~In this study, scoring on the SHI was primarily used to assess improvement of self-harming symptoms and throughout the study by comparing participant ratings from baseline and week 6. Positive numbers indicate a decrease (i.e. participant indicated less self-harming behavior) and negative numbers indicate an increase in self-harming behaviors reported." (NCT00539188)

A total of four hearing assessments by DPOAE were completed for each formulation period on the 1st day pre- and post-shift, and the 14th day pre- and post-shift. The amount of DPOAE temporary threshold change was calculated by subtracting the pre-shift DPOAE response threshold from the post-shift DPOAE response threshold at each frequency. (NCT00552786)
Timeframe: A total of four hearing assessments were completed for each formulation period on the 1st day pre- and post-shift, and the 14th day pre- and post-shift

Alcohol Consumption (Percentage of Heavy Drinking Days)

The percentage of heavy drinking days was primary a priori outcome measure. Heavy drinking was defined as ≥ 5 standard drinks per day for men and ≥ 4 standard drinks for women. One standard drink is any drink containing about 0.6 fluid ounces or 14 grams of pure alcohol. The percentage of heavy drinking days (HDD) was measured at each weekly visit during the 8 weeks--from week 1 (before starting intervention) to week 9 (after completing intervention). At each week, the percentage of HDD was calculated during the period (usually 7 days) since the last previous visit. (NCT00568087)
Timeframe: The percentage of heavy drinking days (HDD) was measured at each weekly visit during the 8 weeks.

Mismatch Negativity (MMN) Duration

"Mismatch Negativity (MMN) Duration difference waves at midline electrodes (Fz, Cz and Pz).~The frequent standard tones were of 75 ms duration with 5 ms rise and fall time, and were composed of 500, 1000, and 1500 Hz sinusoidal partials (harmonics) that resulted in a single high pitched beep sound.~All tones were presented at 76 dB sound pressure level (SPL) with the exception of intensity deviants. The three deviants were distinguishable from standard tones in either intensity, frequency, or duration.~Subjects performed a visual discrimination distractor task during the MMN runs and were instructed to ignore the tones.~The mismatch negativity (MMN) measure included 3 types of deviant tones (stimuli) that the subjects heard: 1. Frequency deviant, 2. Intensity deviant, 3. Duration deviant. The response to these 3 types of deviants were recorded in the EEG. Therefore each deviant was associated with different waves which we measured in amplitude (microvolts)" (NCT00611897)

Cognitive Functioning

determine if 12 months of NAC add-on treatment is superior to placebo for cognitive functioning as measured by the Brief Assessment of Cognition in Schizophrenia (BACS). The BACS is a battery specifically designed to measure treatment-related changes in cognition by utilizing 6 tasks, and has alternate forms, thus minimizing practice effects. Each task generates a raw score (with a higher score indicating better performance): verbal memory 0-75; digit sequencing 0-28; token motor task 0-100; semantic&letter fluency 0-148; symbol coding 0-110; and tower of London 0-22. The raw scores are used to generate a composite score that is calculated by summing t-scores derived by comparisons with a normative sample of 404 healthy controls. The six brief assessments' t-scores, are summed, and averaged to provide a composite t-score. The composite score min and max are between -43 and 100.

Positive symptoms=7 items, negative symptoms=7 items, and general psych.=16 items. Scores for each item range from 1-absent to 7-extreme. To calculate total score, all items on the scale are summed to yield a score from 30-210,a lower score reflecting fewer symptoms. To calculate factor scores various items from positive, negative, and general psych. are summed together to yield Cognitive/Disorganized, Negative, and Positive factor scores. Cog/Disorg factor scores sum 7 items, ranging from 7-49. Neg factor scores sum 7 items, ranging from 7-49. Pos factor scores sum 8 items, ranging from 8-56.

Leg Blood Flow as Measured by Doppler Ultrasound

Femoral Doppler Blood Flow was evaluated via Doppler ultrasound. For the two-dimensional (2-D) and Doppler ultrasound measurements, an ultrasound system (HDI-5000; Philips Medical Systems, Bothell, WA) with a linear array transducer (L7-4) was used with a transmit frequency of 12MHz. 2-D imaging of the common femoral artery will be performed in the long axis. Images will be triggered to the R wave of the cardiac cycle, and the femoral artery diameter will be measured using online video calipers. A pulsed-wave Doppler sample blood volume will be placed at the same location in the center of the artery, and the mean blood velocity will be measured using online angle correction and analysis software. Femoral artery mean blood flow will be calculated from 2-D and Doppler ultrasound data using the equation: Q = vπ ∙ (d/2)2, where Q is femoral blood flow, v is mean femoral artery blood flow velocity, and d is femoral artery diameter.

Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D)

"The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) is a 21-item instrument designed to measure the severity of illness in adults already diagnosed as having depression. The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) has proven useful for many years as a way of determining a patient's level of depression before, during, and after treatment. It is clinician-administered and requires 15 to 20 minutes complete the interview and score the results. Although the HAM-D form lists 21 items, the scoring is based on the first 17. Eight items are scored on a 5-point scale, ranging from 0 = not present to 4 = severe. Nine are scored from 0-2.~The minimum score is 0 and maximum score is 50. The scale has been widely used in clinical practice and become a standard in pharmaceutical trials.~HAM-D Scoring Instructions are following:~0-7 = Normal; 8-13 = Mild Depression; 14-18 = Moderate Depression; 19-22 = Severe Depression;~≥ 23 = Very Severe Depression."

The MADRS is a ten-item diagnostic questionnaire used to measure the severity of depressive episodes in patients with mood disorders. A higher MADRS score indicates more severe depression, and each item yields a score of 0 to 6. The overall score ranges from 0 to 60. The questionnaire includes questions on the following symptoms: 1. Apparent sadness; 2. Reported sadness; 3. Inner tension; 4. Reduced sleep; 5. Reduced appetite; 6. Concentration difficulties; 7. Lassitude; 8. Inability to feel; 9. Pessimistic thoughts; and 10. Suicidal thoughts.

The QLQ H&N35 scoring algorithm was used for sticky saliva (question 42) on 0-100 scales with higher scores representing worse symptoms. The aAUCpa for each subscale is calculated as the average of each AUC between each sequential assessment from treatment-initiation to the end of radiotherapy. For example; for each patient & subscale, the subscale values at treatment-initiation & assessment-1 are used to calculate an Area Under the Curve (AUC) for that assessment time-period. Then these AUCs for all available assessment time-periods up to the end of their radiotherapy are averaged to yield the aAUCpa per patient per subscale. (NCT02123511)

Then these AUCs for all available assessment time-periods up to the end of their radiotherapy are averaged to yield the aAUCpa per patient per subscale. (NCT02123511)

Peak Torque Flexion

Lower-body isometric strength testing was used to determine peak torque during flexion and extension. Participant's blood pressure was assessed, to rule-out hypertension (>140/90), prior to starting the test. Participants were then asked to push against a stationary arm and remained at the same joint angle for the duration of each test. Two short trials were completed to establish maximal force for each participant. This was followed by a long trial of flexion and extension to capture rate of fatigue to 50% after reaching their pre-determined maximal force. In the interest of safety, participants with hypertension and/or a history of knee injury did not perform the test. (NCT02362425)

Peak Torque Extension

Lower-body isometric strength testing was used to determine peak torque during flexion and extension. Participant's blood pressure was assessed, to rule-out hypertension (>140/90), prior to starting the test. Participants were then asked to push against a stationary arm and remained at the same joint angle for the duration of each test. Two short trials were completed to establish maximal force for each participant. This was followed by a long trial of flexion and extension to capture rate of fatigue to 50% after reaching their pre-determined maximal force. In the interest of safety, participants with hypertension and/or a history of knee injury did not perform the test. (NCT02362425)

Mean Ratio of Cys-DA/DOPAC Pre and Post-treatment Lumbar Puncture With and Without N-acetylcysteine (NAC)

Patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) who took N-acetylcysteine (NAC), and healthy volunteers who did not take NAC, each had two separate lumbar punctures (LPs) to obtain spinal fluid. The spinal fluid samples were used to measure the ratio of the brain chemical called 5-S-cysteinyl-dopamine (Cys-DA) to the brain chemical called 3,4-Dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (Cys-DOPAC). Dopamine has 2 possible metabolic fates or processes of degradation. One fate is the breakdown of Dopamine by an enzyme to form DOPAC. The other fate is spontaneous oxidation to form Cys-DA. The ratio of Cys-DA to DOPAC may reflect these relative fates. If NAC reduced spontaneous oxidation to Cys-DA, then the ratio Cys-DA/DOPAC ratio would decrease between LP 1 and LP 2. (NCT03104725)
Timeframe: All participants underwent a baseline LP. For PD participants, the second LP occurred approximately 2 hours after the participant had taken NAC the last NAC dose. For HV participants the second LP takes place approximately 48 hours after the first LP.

The Mean Percent Change in Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Concentration of 5-S-cysteinyl-dopamine (Cys-DA) Pre and Post-N-acetylcysteine (NAC) Treatment

Patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) who took N-acetylcysteine (NAC), and healthy volunteers who did not take NAC, each had two separate lumbar punctures (LP 1 and LP 2) to obtain spinal fluid. The spinal fluid samples were used to measure the amount of a brain chemical called 5-S-cysteinyl-dopamine (Cys-DA). The primary outcome measure is the mean change in CSF Cys-DA levels between pre and post-NAC treatment, which is calculated as the difference of CSF Cys-DA levels at pre-treatment (LP 1) and post-treatment (LP 2) divided by CSF Cys-DA at pre-treatment (LP 1). A greater percent decrease in Cys-DA levels in the brain would suggest that NAC may contribute to a reduction in the oxidation of brain dopamine, while a smaller percent decrease would suggest that NAC had no effect on the oxidation of brain dopamine. (NCT03104725)

Quantifying the Difference in Glutamate Levels (mmol/kg) During N-Acetylcysteine Versus Placebo in the Anterior Cingulate Brain Region.

"Using magnetic resonance spectroscopy and a within-subjects design, we will determine the effect of N-Acetylcysteine versus placebo on modulating anterior cingulate glutamate levels in adolescents. Values provided are absolute values (mmol/kg) at the end of each intervention period. Due to complexities of this method, normal levels of glutamate are not known; thus, we cannot make conclusions about the meaning of higher or lower glutamate levels when comparing N-acetylcysteine to placebo."

Change in Neural Reactivity (as Measured by BOLD: Blood Oxygen Level-Dependent Response) in Reward Regions During Alcohol-cue Reactivity Task.

"Assessing the change in neural reactivity to alcohol cues after each round of medication: Placebo vs. N-Acetylcysteine.~Cue reactivity is a type of learned response which is observed in individuals who use substances (e.g., alcohol) and involves significant physiological reactions to presentations of substance-related stimuli (i.e., alcohol images) in comparison to neutral images (e.g., non-alcoholic beverages ) measured by BOLD (Blood Oxygen Level-Dependent response). ROIs were (left and right hemisphere): amygdala, caudate, insula, nucleus accumbens, and putamen.~Change in BOLD signal are reported in Z-scores. A Z-score of 0 would indicate there is no statistical difference in BOLD signal between alcohol images and non-alcohol beverage images. A higher Z-score would indicated a higher BOLD signal during alcohol images compared to non-alcohol beverage images. A lower Z-score would indicate a lower BOLD signal during alcohol images compared to non-alcohol beverage images." (NCT03238300)

"The MSS combines the 5 most relevant symptoms of rhinosinusitis based on expert clinician recommendations (rhinorrhea/ anterior discharge, postnasal drip, nasal congestion, headache, and facial pain/pressure). The patient rated the severity of each of the five symptoms of the MSS using a four-point rating scale of increasing severity (0 = none/not present, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe). The MSS is then the sum of single ratings with a possible range from 0 to 15.~Mean change from baseline in the daily Major Symptom Score (MSS) over the entire treatment period was calculated as the average total score from Day 2 to 15 compared to Baseline (Day 1). Negative change from baseline means improvement." (NCT04123405)

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) - Cortical Silent Period

"Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) - Cortical Silent Period (CSP). This measure describes the function and physiology of the motor system using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) over the brain to evoke a muscle twitch in the hand. These evoked potentials provide information about the instantaneous balance of excitation and inhibition in the brain, which in turn relate in part to neurotransmitter levels that can be altered by diseases and by treatments. This measure reflects an inhibitory neurotransmitter called GABA-B and its action at a particular receptor - the GABA B receptor. A lengthening of the duration of CSP indicates more inhibition, which is good (within a healthy range of approximately 50 to 150 ms, because outside of that range is abnormal). Here we report the average difference before and after treatment." (NCT04481035)
Timeframe: At baseline and end of 8 weeks treatment with either NAC or placebo (weeks 0 and 8 for treatment phase one of this cross-over double blind study and at weeks 10 and 18 for treatment phase two).

Change From Baseline in ADHD Symptoms as Reported Via Parent/Teacher Surveys

Characterize effects of NAC treatment on ADHD symptoms in children with NF1. The investigators hypothesize that ADHD attention and hyperactive/impulsive symptoms, rated with the DuPaul DSM-5 based clinical rating scales, will improve after treatment with NAC. The range of this scale is 0-56, higher scores correlate with symptom severity (worse outcome). (NCT04481035)

Change From Baseline in Motor Function Measured by Physical and Neurological Examination for Subtle Signs (PANESS)

Characterize effects of NAC treatment on motor function in kids with NF1 using the Physical and Neurological Examination for Subtle Signs (PANESS). This is a validated scale that consistently demonstrates significant impairments in children with ADHD, and which preliminary data suggest may demonstrate more extreme problems in children with NF1 than age-matched healthy controls (unpublished data from CCHMC). The investigators hypothesize that motor function scores rated with the PANESS scale will improve after treatment with NAC. The range of this scale is 0-119, higher scores correlate with symptom severity (worse outcome). (NCT04481035)
Timeframe: At baseline and end of 8 weeks treatment with either NAC or placebo (weeks 0 and 8 for treatment phase one of this cross-over double blind study and at weeks 10 and 18 for treatment phase two).
