Abstrakt: An integrated evaluation of the tissue distribution and pharmacodynamic properties of a therapeutic is essential for successful translation to the clinic. To date, however, cost-effective methods to measure these parameters at the systems level in model organisms are lacking. Here, we introduce a multidimensional workflow to evaluate drug activity that combines mass spectrometry-based imaging, absolute drug quantitation across different biological matrices, in vivo isotope tracing and global metabolome analysis in the adult zebrafish. As a proof of concept, we quantitatively determined the whole-body distribution of the anti-rheumatic agent hydroxychloroquine sulfate (HCQ) and measured the systemic metabolic impacts of drug treatment. We found that HCQ distributed to most organs in the adult zebrafish 24 h after addition of the drug to water, with the highest accumulation of both the drug and its metabolites being in the liver, intestine and kidney. Interestingly, HCQ treatment induced organ-specific alterations in metabolism. In the brain, for example, HCQ uniquely elevated pyruvate carboxylase activity to support increased synthesis of the neuronal metabolite, N-acetylaspartate. Taken together, this work validates a multidimensional metabolomics platform for evaluating the mode of action of a drug and its potential off-target effects in the adult zebrafish. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.
