DEFINITIONS
• SEX refers to the classification of living
things, generally as male or female,
according to their reproductive organs and
functions assigned by chromosomal
complement.
• GENDER refers to a person’s selfrepresentation as male or female. Gender is
rooted in biology and shaped by environment
and experience.
2
SEX DIFFERENCES IN
RECOVERY FROM STROKE
• Females are more likely than males to
recover language ability after suffering a left
hemisphere stroke
• Men and women differ in brain organization
for language
– Men rely on left inferior frontal gyrus to carry out
language tasks
– Women use both the right and left inferior gyri to
carry out certain language tasks
3
SEX DIFFERENCES
AND DEPRESSION
• Female gender is a major risk of depression
by 2:1 ratio
• Prevalence of major depression in women
(21.3%) versus men (12.7%)
4
WOMEN IN CLINICAL TRIALS
• FDA 1977 guidelines directed that women of childbearing potential be excluded from Phase I and
early Phase II trials but women could participate
later.
• Child bearing potential was narrowly defined as any
woman physiologically capable of becoming
pregnant, regardless of sexual activity, sexual
practices and contraceptive use
• In 1990, the NIH directed that women and minorities
be included in clinical trials
5
SEX DIFFERENCES
• Physiological factors
• Molecular factors
6
SEX DIFFERENCES AND CLINICAL
RESEARCH
• The following should be considered
– Genetic differences
– Phase of menstrual cycle
– Premenopausal vs. postmenopausal
– Use of oral contraceptives or hormone
replacement therapy
– Pregnancy
– Lactation
7
SEX DIFFERENCES
• Physiological factors
– Generally lower
• Body weight
• Organ size
• Glomerular filtration rate
– Generally higher
• Percentage of body fat
– Different gastric motility in women compared to
men
8
GENETIC/MOLECULAR BASIS OF
SEX BASED DIFFERENCES
• Genetic/molecular basis of sex-based
differences may be due to:
– Sexual genotype
– Genes on sex chromosomes may be expressed
differently between males and females (single or
double copies of the gene, differing meiotic
effects, X chromosome inactivation, genetic
imprinting)
– Source of X chromosome (maternal or paternal)
9
MOLECULAR FACTORS
• Men seem to have higher activity relative to women
for:
– Cytochrome P 450 (cyp) isoenzymes
• Cyp 1A2
• Cyp 2E1
– Drug efflux transporter
• P-glycoprotein
• Some isoforms of glucuronyl transferase and sulfotransferases
• Women have higher
– Cyp 2D6 activity
– Cyp 3A4 activity
10
PRINCIPLES OF DRUG ACTION
•
•
•
•
•
•
Absorption
Bioavailability
Volume of distribution
Plasma protein binding
Action on receptor site
Termination of activity
– Redistribution
– Metabolism
– Renal excretion
11
SEX DIFFERENCES AND
ANTIDEPRESSANT PHARMACOKINETICS
• Oral contraceptives decrease the hepatic
metabolism of imipramine because of
changes in hepatic blood flow
• Imipramine dosage reduction is necessary in
chronic long-term oral contraceptive users to
2/3rd that given to non-contraceptive users
• Women older than 50 years have higher
plasma concentrations of amitriptyline than
age matched men
12
BIOAVAILABILITY OF DRUGS
• Extent to which and the rate at which an
administered drug dose reaches the systemic
circulation unchanged
• Bioavailability of a drug administered
intravenously is equal to unity
• Bioavailability of a compound administered
as an oral, intramuscular, or subcutaneous
formulation is assessed in relation to
intravenous drug
13
HALF-LIFE OF A DRUG
volume of distribution
Half-life =
clearance
14
X log c2
DISTRIBUTION OF DRUGS
• Rate at which equilibrium between tissue and
plasma concentration is achieved depends
on:
– Blood perfusion rate to organs
– Drug lipid solubility
– Drug’s ability to bind to proteins or tissues
15
LIPID SOLUBILITY AND
DISTRIBUTION OF DRUGS
• If lipid soluble – more likely to cross biological
barriers such as cell membranes, blood-brain
barrier, and placenta
• If water soluble – will cross membranes only
if it’s of small molecular size
16
DRUG METABOLISM
• Water soluble drugs
– Eliminated unchanged after glomerular filtration
• Lipid-soluble drugs
– Rendered more polar by metabolism prior to
excretion in bile or urine
– Oxidation (hydroxylation, demethylation)
– Conjugation (glucoronide, sulphate)
17
PHYSIOLOGICAL CHANGES IN
PREGNANCY
•
•
•
•
•
•
Total body water increases - up to 8 liters
Plasma volume increases by 50%
Plasma albumin falls by 5-10 g/L
Increase in body fat by 3-4 kg
Increase in body weight
Maternal cardiac output increases by 30-50%
during pregnancy (4.5 l/min  6 l/min)
18
EFFECTS OF INCREASE IN
CARDIAC OUTPUT
•Uterine circulation
500 ml/min at term
•Effective renal plasma flow
Increased by 75% over nonpregnant levels to 891 ml/min
by 26 weeks (NP – 480 ml/min)
•Glomerular filtration rate
Increased by 50% from 99
ml/min – non-pregnant to 152
ml/min – by 26 weeks
•Creatinine clearance rate
150-200 ml/min
19
INFLUENCE OF PHYSIOLOGICAL CHANGES
IN PREGNANCY ON DRUG HANDLING
• Ingestion
– Compliance
• Fear that fetus may be harmed
• Nausea, vomiting and heartburn
• Absorption
– Gastric function
• Delayed gastric emptying
• Gastric acid secretion is decreased by 40%
– Functions of small intestine
– GI transit is prolonged by 30-50%
– Drugs if metabolized in gut wall eS chlorpromazine, may reduce
bioavailability
• Epidural space
– Greatly increased vascularity in epidural space
• Demerol more rapidly absorbed
20
CYTOCHROME P-450
AND SEX STEROIDS
• High levels of progesterone may inhibit some
enzymes of P-450 system
– CYP 1A2 leading to decreased elimination of
theophylline, caffeine, and zileuton
• High levels of progesterone may increase
activity of some enzymes
– CYP 3A4 and CYP 2C9 leading to increase in
hepatic elimination of drugs like phenytoin and
sertraline
21
ANTICONVULSANTS
AND PREGNANCY
• Phenytoin
– Increased clearance resulting in lower serum
concentrations
–  absorption
•  plasma protein binding
•  metabolism

ANTIBIOTIC LEVELS AFFECTED
DURING PREGNANCY
• Ampicillin, penicillin, cefazolin levels
decreased by 50%
• Gentamycin, tobramycin, and amikacin
serum concentrations are also reduced
24
ASTHMA THERAPY AND PREGNANCY
– Inhaled steroids and beta agonists commonly
used
– Theophylline serum concentrations can be
elevated during pregnancy ( CYP 1A2)
25
CARDIOVASCULAR AGENTS
AND PREGNANCY
• Serum concentrations of propranolol,
labetalol, and atenolol not changed
• Lowered serum concentrations with
metoprolol

RECOMMENDATIONS
• Clarify use of terms sex and gender
• Determine and disclose the sex of origin of
biological research materials
• Identify endocrine status of research subjects
