Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- water
- Details on oral exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS: Formulations of the test material were prepared for administration as a series of graded concentrations in distilled water to provide the required dosages at a constant volume-dosage of 10 ml/kg bodyweight. Control rats received the vehicle (distilled water) alone at the same volume-dosage. All formulations were prepared freshly each day).
- Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Before treatment commenced, the suitability of the proposed formulations was determined by a trial preparation, made up as for Day 1 of treatment. Homogeneity.was determined by infra-red spectrophotometric assay of the trial formulations for the high and low dose groups immediately following their preparation, and stablilty was assessed by the same method after 24 and 48 hours storage at room temperature. The results indicated that the homogeneity and stability of M-3175 in distilled water were satisfactory.

- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY
There was no death. Signs of reaction to treatment were restricted to animals receiving 1000 mg/kg/day. They began as irregularly shaped,
moist faeces during the second week of treatment (Day 12). By the fourth week of treatment (Days 24~25) there was evidence of heavy perianal staining, loose faeces and dark stained faeces. The cage tray papers were observed to be dark stained on Days 17 to 19. Loose and dark stained faeces had resolved within two days and the perianal staining had resolved within four days of cessation of treatment. The appearance and behaviour of rats receiving 200 or 40 mg/kg/day were indistinguishable from the control animals.
BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAIN
Bodyweight gain was considered to have been unaffected by treatment with M-3175.
The bodyweight gain of male rats receiving 1000 mg/kg/day was slightly inferior to the male control animals during the treatment period and slightly superior (p < 0.05) during the reversibility period. However, the differences were small and, in the absence of simiiar observations in females receiving this dosage, they could not be unequivocally ascribed to an effect of the test material.
FOOD CONSUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTAKE (if feeding study)
Food consumption was considered to have been unaffected by treatment with M-3175. The reduced food consumption values recorded for all groups of rats during Week 4 of treatment and Week 2 of the reversibilty period, compared with preceding values, resulted from the overnight withdrawal of food for collection of blood and urine
FOOD EFFICIENCY
Food utilisation efficiency was considered to have been unaffected by treatment with M-3175.
WATER CONSUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTAKE (if drinking water study)
Visual inspection of water bottle residues did not reveal any evidence of inter-group differences in water consumption.
HAEMATOLOGY
After four weeks of treatment, the packed cell volume (p <-0.01), haemoglobin concentration {~< 0.05) and red cell numbers (p > 0.05) of male rats receiving 1000 mg/kg/day were slightly higher than those of the male control animals. Similar, very small differences in these parameters were also recorded at this time between female rats receiving this dosage and the female controls. After two weeks cessation of treatment, the erythrocyte characteristics of the reversibility animals that received 1000 mg/kg/day were essentially the same as those of the control animals. The differences in the lymphocyte and total leucocyte numbers between male rats treated at 1000 mg/kg/day and the male control animals (p < 0.05 ) were considered to largely reflect a high control value, rather than an effect of M-3175. The small differences in platelet numbers and prothrombin time between female rats treated at 1000 mg/kg/day and the female controls (p < 0.05) were not considered to be biologically significant. The haematology of rats treated at 200 or 40 mg/kg/day was considered to have been undisturbed.
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
Animals of both sexes receiving 1000 mg/kg/day displayed lower alkaline phosphatase (p < 0.001) and aspartate amino-transferase activities (p < 0.01 for males and p < 0.05 for females), slightly lower urea (p > 0.05 for males and p < 0.01 for females) and higher triglyceride concentrations (p < 0.001 for males and p > 0.01 for females), and slightly lower chloride levels (p < 0.001), than those of their respective control animals. In addition, males treated at this dosage showed slightly lower potassium (p < 0.05) and inorganic phosphorus levels (p < 0.01), and slightly higher cholesterol (p < 0.05) concentrations, than the male control animals. Plasma concentrations of chloride ions (p < 0.001) and inorganic phosphorus (p < 0.05) in male rats treated at .200 mg/kg/day and phosphorus(p < 0.05) in males receiving 40 mg/kg/day were similarly lower than those of the controls. There was no other evidence to suggest an effect of treatment in rats receiving 200 or 40 mg/kg/day. Since the reductions in plasma phosphorus concentrations were not clearly dosage-related, and there was no indication of any similar effect in females even .at the highest dosage, it is considered that the inter-group differences were fortuitous and unrelated to treatment with M-3175. This view is supported by persistence of low plasma phosphorus concentrations (p < 0.05) after respite from treatment in males formerly receiving 1000 mg/kg/day, when compared with controls. Recovery in respect of effects on alkaline phosphatase and aspartate amino-transferase (incomplete in females) activities, urea, triglyceride, cholesterol and potassium concentrations was clearly apparent
URINALYSIS
After three weeks of treatment, the urine of animals of both sexes receiving 1000 mg/kg/daywas slightly lower in volume (p > 0.05 for males and p < 0.01 for females) and pH (p < 0.05 for males p < 0.001 for females) and was of slightly higher specific gravity (p<0.05 for females and p<0.001 for females than the value recorded for the control animals. Many samples collected at this time from the male rats receiving 1000 mg/kg/day were contaminated by loose faeces and could not be analysed. Most of the other samples from these animals, which were not overtly contaminated, were dark yellow in colour and had generally sl ightly higher protein concentrations than in control samples. These changes, and the presence of blood pigment in the urine of one female receiving 1000 mg/kg/day, are considered to reflect a degree of faecal contamination that was insufficient to preclude analysis. After ten days respite from treatment, the urine of rats previously receiving 1000 mg/kg/day was similar to that of the control animals. The urine of rats treated at 200 or 40 mg/kg/day was considered to have been unaffected by M-3175.
ORGAN WEIGHTS
Organ weights were considered to have been unaffected by treatment with M-3175.
GROSS PATHOLOGY
There was no macroscopic change which was attributed to treatment with M-3175.
HISTOPATHOLOGY
There were no microscopic changes of pathological significance in animals killed after four weeks of treatment, which were attributed to administration of M-3175.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- It is concluded that daily oral administration of M-3175 to rats at a dosage of 1000 mg/kg/day elicited mild, reversible effects, principally associated with disturbance of intestinal function. The NOAEL of administration was considered to be 200 mg/kg/day.
- Executive summary:
Three groups of five male and five female CD rats were treated with M-3175 by oral gavage at dosages of 40, 200 or 1000 mg/kg/day for four consecutive weeks. The test material was administered in distilled water, at a volume-dosage of 10 ml/kg. A similarly constituted group of rats received the vehicle alone at the same volume-dosage and acted as a contemporaneous control. An additional five male and five female rats were allocated to each of the control and high dosage groups and were retained for a further two weeks without treatment, to assess the reversibility
of any induced effects. At the end of the treatment or reversibility periods the animals were humanely killed and subjected to a aetailed necropsy.
Selected tissues were taken and processed for microscopic examination.
There was no death. Effects of treatment in rats receiving 1000 mg/kg/day were: loose, black stained faeces and heavy perianal staining by Week 4
slightly higher packed cell volume, haemoglobin concentration and erythrocyte numbers, compared with the control animals lower plasma alkaline phosphatase and aspartate amino-transferase activities, slightly lower urea concentrations, higher triglyceride concentrations and slightly lower chloride levels than the control animals. Males also showed slightly lower potassium levels and slightly higher cholesterol concentrations, than the male controls slightly lower urinary volume and pH and slightly higher specific gravity, than the control animals. Urine samples from the male rats were contaminated by faeces or were dark yellow. Most of these effects resolved during the two-week reversibility period.
Differences between rats receiving 200 mg/kg/day and the control animals that may have reflected an effect of treatment were confined to slightly lower plasma chloride levels in the males only.
There-were no effects of treatment rats treated at 40 mg/kg/day. There were no micropathological changes which were attributed to the administration of M-3175.
It is concluded that daily oral administration of M-3175 to rats at a dosage of 1000 mg/kg/day elicited mild, reversible effects, principally associated with disturbance of intestinal function. The NOAEL of administration was considered to be 200 mg/kg/day.
