Metabolism of arylacetic acids. 2. The fate of [14C]hydratropic acid and its variation with species. 1977

P A Dixon, and J Caldwell, and R L Smith

1. (+/-)-[methyl-14C]-Hydratropic acid was administered to man, rhesus monkey, cat, rabbit and fruit bat. 2. All species excreted 60-100% of administered 14C in the urine in 24 h, and unchanged hydratropic acid accounted for 0-17% of the dose. 3. In man, the urinary 14C consisted of a very small quantity (1%) of unchanged hydratropic acid with the remainder as hydratropylglucuronide. 4. Hydratropylglucuronide was the major urinary excretion product in the 4 animal species, while the glycine conjugate was present in the urine of cat and rat. Additionally, cats excreted the taurine conjugate of hydratropic acid. 5. Bile-duct cannulated rats excreted 20-30% of an injected dose of [14C] hydratropic acid in the bile in 3 h mainly as hydratropylglucuronide.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.
