Repeated dose toxicity: oral
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- short-term repeated dose toxicity: oral
- Type of information:
- other: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2012
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Remarks:
- Guideline study with no or minor deviations from standard test guidelines and/or minor methodological deficiencies, which do not affect the quality of the relevant results.
- Justification for type of information:
- Hostapon SG and acylglycinate GCK-12H-T are structurally closely related UVCB substances, which differ predominantly in the counterion (sodium resp. potassium). According to the available experimental studies, both substances exhibit results in a comparable range. Therefore, it can be assumed that the results obtained with Hostapon SG for this specific endpoint also apply to acylglycinate GCK-12H-T.

Examinations
- Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
- Viability / Mortality: Observations for viability / mortality were recorded twice daily.
Daily Observations: The animals were observed daily for clinical signs before commencement of administration as well as daily on days 1 - 28 (twice daily during days 1 - 3) during the treatment period, and once daily during days 1 to 14 of the recovery period.
Weekly Behavioral Observations: The animals were observed in their home cages, outside their home cages in a standard arena and in the hand. These observations were performed once before commencement of administration and once weekly (weeks 1 to 3) thereafter.
Functional Observational Battery (Screen): During week 4, relevant parameters from a modified Irwin screen test were evaluated in all animals. The results are present in the summary and individual tables of the weekly detailed clinical observations under week 4.
Grip Strength: Forelimb and hindlimb grip strength measurements were performed using a push-pull strain gauge (Mecmesin, AFG 25N). The animals were placed with the forepaws inside a triangular grasping ring and with the hind paws outside a triangular grasping ring. Using one hand, the animals were held towards the base of the tail and steadily pulled away or towards the ring until the grip was broken. Each measurement was repeated three times, the means were calculated and recorded.
Locomotor Activity: Locomotor (decreased or increased) activity was measured quantitatively with AMS Föhr Medical Instruments GmbH (FMI) and DeMeTec GmbH Activity Monitor System. Animals were monitored during the fourth treatment week for a 60-minute period and the total activity of this time period was recorded. Low beams count was reported in 10-minute intervals as well as the total activity of the measuring period.
Food Consumption: The food consumption was recorded once during the acclimatization period and weekly thereafter, using an on-line electronic recording system consisting of a Mettler balance connected to the Harlan Laboratories computer.
Body Weights: Body weights were recorded weekly during acclimatization, treatment and recovery periods and before necropsy, using an on-line electronic recording system consisting of a Mettler balance connected to the Harlan Laboratories computer.
Clinical Laboratory Investigations
Blood and Urine Sampling:
After 4 Weeks: 20-Feb-2012 (allocation A and B)
After 6 Weeks: 05-Mar-2012 (allocation B)
Blood samples were drawn from the retro-orbital plexus from all animals under light isoflurane anesthesia. The animals were fasted in metabolism cages for approximately 18 hours before blood sampling but allowed access to water ad libitum. The samples were collected early in the working day to reduce biological variation caused by circadian rhythms. Blood samples were drawn from the retro-orbital plexus using a micro-hematocrit glass capillary tube.
Urine was collected during the 18 hours fasting period into a specimen vial, using a metabolism cage.

-Necropsy
Sacrifice:
After 4 Weeks: 20-Feb-2012 (allocation A)
After 6 Weeks: 05-Mar-2012 (allocation B)
All allocation A and B animals were weighed and necropsied. Descriptions of all macroscopical abnormalities were recorded. All animals were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbitone and killed by exsanguination.
A blood sample was taken from each animal by heart puncture (ca. 2 mL) into appropriate tubes (Vacutainer glass tubes containing SST-Gel and Clot Activator or the equivalent) for serum preparation and then placed on ice or cool plates. Following centrifugation, the serum was divided in 2 aliquots of at least 350 µL and transferred to plastic (polypropylene) tubes. These samples were stored at approximately -80 °C and protected from light in case they were needed for analysis of hormone activity.
-Organ Weights
The organs from allocation A and B animals were weighed before fixation and recorded on the scheduled dates of necropsy. Relative organ weights were calculated on the basis of the body weight and brain weight.
The terminal body weight was recorded immediately prior to necropsy and the organ to terminal body weight ratios as well as organ to brain weight ratios were determined.
-Histotechnique
All organ and tissue samples, as defined under Histopathology , were processed, embedded and cut at an approximate thickness of 2 to 4 micrometers and stained with hematoxylin and eosin.
-Histopathology
Slides of all organs and tissues collected at scheduled sacrifices from all animals of the control and high-dose groups and all gross lesions from all animals were examined by the study pathologist. Liver. Lungs and stomach of animals from the low and middle dose groups were also evaluated. Organ and tissue samples taken from animals which died spontaneously were evaluated similarly to those organs taken from animals of the high-dose group.
A description of all abnormalities is attached (see Appendix VI ). Attempts were made to correlate gross observations with microscopic findings. - Sacrifice and pathology:
- GROSS PATHOLOGY: Yes
HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes - Other examinations:
- -Viability / Mortality
- Organ Weights - Statistics:
- The following statistical methods were used to analyze body weight, grip strength, locomotor activity, clinical laboratory data, organ weights and ratios as well as macroscopic findings:
The Dunnett-test (many to one t-test) based on a pooled variance estimate was applied if the variables could be assumed to follow a normal distribution for the comparison of the treated groups and the control groups for each sex.
The Steel-test (many-one rank test) was applied instead of the Dunnett-test when the data could not be assumed to follow a normal distribution.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on the results of this study, 250 mg/kg body weight/day of the registered substance was established as the no-observed-effect-level (NOEL) and 1000 mg/kg body weight/day of Hostapon SG dried as the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL).
- Executive summary:
Oral administration of the registered substance to Wistar rats at doses of 62.5, 250 and 1000 mg/kg/day, for 28 days resulted in two deaths due to aspiration of dosing formulations reflux, no clinical signs during daily or weekly observations, no findings during the functional observational battery or related tests (grip strength and locomotor activity), minor test item-unrelated differences in the mean daily food consumption of females (males were unaffected), no test item-related differences in mean body weights or their development, no test item-related changes in the hematology, clinical biochemistry or urinalysis parameters of males or females at any dose level, no differences of toxicological relevance in the mean absolute and relative organ weights. There were no late test item-related macroscopical changes in males or females after 4 weeks of treatment and 2 weeks of recovery.
Test item-related findings were generally restricted to microscopic changes in the forestomach of animals at 1000 mg/kg/day. These lesions consisted of acanthosis, parakeratosis, inflammation, ulceration and erosions. These changes are considered to be `site of first contact` and thus local effects due to irritation rather than systemic toxic effects and are not considered relevant for human health hazard / risk assessment. After the 14 days recovery period, these changes were completely reversible. Comparable forestomach effects were not seen in the rats from the low- and mid-dose groups.
Since the forestomach effects are considered to be `site of first contact` and thus local effects which are not relevant for human hazard / risk assessment, the NOAEL of the registered substance with regard to systemic toxicity was established at 1000 mg/kg body weight per day.
