Pharmacodynamics
Longidase® has hyaluronidase (enzymatic) activity with prolonged action, chelating, antioxidant, immunomodulatory and moderately pronounced anti-inflammatory properties.
The prolonged action of the enzyme is achieved by covalent binding of the enzyme with a physiologically active polymeric carrier (azoximer). Longidase® shows antifibrotic properties, weakens acute phase of inflammation, regulates (increases or decreases depending on the initial level) synthesis of inflammatory mediators (interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha), increases humoral immune response and resistance of the body to infection.
The pronounced antifibrotic properties of Longidase are provided by conjugation of hyaluronidase with the carrier, which significantly increases resistance of the enzyme to denaturing influences and to the action of inhibitors: the enzymatic activity of Longidase is maintained when heated to 37 °С for 20 days, while the native hyaluronidase in the same conditions loses its activity within a day.
The specific substrate of testicular hyaluronidase is glycosaminoglycans (hyaluronic acid, chondroitin, chondroitin-4-sulfate, chondroitin-6-sulfate), which form the basis of the connective tissue matrix.
Glycosaminoglycans change their basic properties as a result of depolymerization (breaking the bond between C1 acetylglucosamine and C4 glucuronic or induronic acids): viscosity is reduced, the ability to bind water, metal ions is reduced, the permeability of tissue barriers is temporarily increased, fluid movement in the intercellular space is facilitated, the elasticity of connective tissue is increased, which is manifested in a reduction of tissue swelling, flattening of scars, increased joint movement, reduction of contractures and prevention of their formation, reduction of adhesions.
Biochemical, immunological, histological and electron-microscopic investigations demonstrate that Longidase® does not damage the normal connective tissue, but causes destruction of connective tissue altered in its composition and structure in the area of fibrosis.
Longidaza® has no mutagenic, embryotoxic, teratogenic and carcinogenic effect.
The drug is well tolerated by patients, no local and general allergic reactions were noted.
The use of Longidase in therapeutic doses during or after surgical treatment does not cause deterioration of the course of postoperative period or progression of the infection; it does not slow down the recovery of bone tissue.
Pharmacokinetics
The experimental study of pharmacokinetics established that with rectal administration Longidase® is characterized by high rate of distribution in the body, is well absorbed into the systemic bloodstream and reaches maximum concentration in the blood after 1 hour. Period of half-distribution is about 0.5 hours; period of half-elimination is from 42 to 84 hours. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys.
The drug penetrates into all organs and tissues, including those through the blood-brain and blood-ophthalmic barriers. It was found that there is no tissue cumulation.
The bioavailability of Longidase® by rectal administration is high: about 90 %.
