Patent Application
20180362564
The present disclosure relates to cyclic phosphates and cyclic phosphoramidates, pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds, and their use in the treatment of neurologic disorders (such as pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration).
Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) is a form of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) that causes extrapyramidal dysfunction (e.g., dystonia, rigidity, choreoathetosis) (A. M. Gregory and S. J. Hayflick, “Neurodegeneration With Brain Iron Accumulation,” Orphanet Encyclopedia, September 2004). PKAN is thought to be a genetic disorder resulting from lack of the enzyme pantothenate kinase, which is responsible for the conversion of pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) to 4′-phosphopantothenic acid. 4′-Phosphopantothenic acid is subsequently converted into Coenzyme A (CoA) (as shown below) (R. Leonardi, Y.-M. Zhang, C. O. Rock, and S. Jackowski, “Coenzyme A: Back In Action,” Progress in Lipid Research, 2005, 44, 125-153).
In particular, pantothenic acid is converted to 4′-phosphopantothenic acid via the enzyme pantothenate kinase (PANK), which is converted to 4′-phosphopantothenoylcysteine via the enzyme 4′-phosphopantothenoylcysteine synthase (PPCS), and subsequently decarboxylated to 4′-phosphopantetheine via 4′-phosphopantothenoylcysteine decarboxylase (PPCDC). 4′-phosphopantetheine is then appended to adenosine by the action of phosphopantethine adenyltransferase (PPAT) to afford dephospho CoA, which is finally converted to coenzyme A (CoA) via dephospho-CoA kinase (DPCK).
Classic PKAN usually presents in a child's first ten to fifteen years, though there is also an atypical form that can occur up to age 40. PKAN is a progressively degenerative disease that leads to loss of musculoskeletal function with a devastating effect on quality of life.
One approach to treating PKAN could be to administer 4′-phosphopantothenic acid. This approach has been mentioned in the literature, but it has been recognized that the highly charged molecule would not be able to permeate the lipophilic cell membrane (C. J. Balibar, M. F. Hollis-Symynkywicz, and J. Tao, “Pantethine Rescues Phosphopantothenoylcysteine Synthetase And Phosphopantothenoylcysteine Decarboxylase Deficiency In Escherichia Coli But Not In Pseudomonas Aeruginosa,” J. Bacteriol., 2011, 193, 3304-3312).

Certain isotopically-labeled compounds of structures disclosed herein, for example, those incorporating a radioactive isotope, are useful in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution studies. These radiolabeled compounds could be useful to help determine or measure the effectiveness of the compounds, by characterizing, for example, the site or mode of action, or binding affinity to a pharmacologically important site of action. The radioactive isotopes tritium, i.e., 3H, and carbon-14, i.e., 14C, are particularly useful for this purpose in view of their ease of incorporation and ready means of detection.
Substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium, i.e., 2H, may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example, increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements, and hence are preferred in some circumstances.
Substitution with positron emitting isotopes, such as 11C, 18F, 15O and 13N, can be useful in Positron Emission Topography (PET) studies for examining substrate receptor occupancy. Isotopically-labeled compounds can generally be prepared by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described in the Preparations and Examples as set out below using an appropriate isotopically-labeled reagent in place of the non-labeled reagent previously employed.
The invention disclosed herein is also meant to encompass the in vivo metabolic products of the disclosed compounds. Such products may result from, for example, the oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, amidation, esterification, and the like of the administered compound, primarily due to enzymatic processes. Accordingly, the invention includes compounds produced by a process comprising administering a compound of this invention to a mammal for a period of time sufficient to yield a metabolic product thereof. Such products are typically identified by administering a radiolabeled compound of the invention in a detectable dose to an animal, such as rat, mouse, guinea pig, monkey, or to human, allowing sufficient time for metabolism to occur, and isolating its conversion products from the urine, blood or other biological samples. “Stable compound” and “stable structure” are meant to indicate a compound that is sufficiently robust to survive isolation to a useful degree of purity from a reaction mixture, and formulation into an efficacious therapeutic agent.
Often crystallizations produce a solvate of the compound of the invention. As used herein, the term “solvate” refers to an aggregate that comprises one or more molecules of a compound of the invention with one or more molecules of solvent. In some embodiments, the solvent is water, in which case the solvate is a hydrate. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the solvent is an organic solvent. Thus, the compounds of the present invention may exist as a hydrate, including a monohydrate, dihydrate, hemihydrate, sesquihydrate, trihydrate, tetrahydrate and the like, as well as the corresponding solvated forms. In some aspects, the compound of the invention is a true solvate, while in other cases, the compound of the invention merely retains adventitious water or is a mixture of water plus some adventitious solvent.
A “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a formulation of a compound of the invention and a medium generally accepted in the art for the delivery of the biologically active compound to mammals, e.g., humans.

The compounds of the invention, or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, may contain one or more asymmetric centers and may thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric forms that are defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R)- or (S)- or, as (D)- or (L)- for amino acids. The present invention is meant to include all such possible isomers, as well as their racemic and optically pure forms. Optically active (+) and (−), (R)- and (S)-, or (D)- and (L)-isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques, for example, chromatography and fractional crystallization. Conventional techniques for the preparation/isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from a suitable optically pure precursor or resolution of the racemate (or the racemate of a salt or derivative) using, for example, chiral high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). When the compounds described herein contain olefinic double bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry, and unless specified otherwise, it is intended that the compounds include both E and Z geometric isomers. Likewise, all tautomeric forms are also intended to be included.
The present invention includes all manner of rotamers and conformationally restricted states of a compound of the invention. Atropisomers, which are stereoisomers arising because of hindered rotation about a single bond, where energy differences due to steric strain or other contributors create a barrier to rotation that is high enough to allow for isolation of individual conformers, are also included.
A “stereoisomer” refers to a compound made up of the same atoms bonded by the same bonds but having different three-dimensional structures, which are not interchangeable. The present invention contemplates various stereoisomers and mixtures thereof and includes “enantiomers,” which refers to two stereoisomers whose molecules are nonsuperimposeable mirror images of one another. For example, the carbon and phosphorous atoms marked with an “*” in the following structure are stereocenters. All stereoisomers of the compounds disclosed herein are also included in the scope of the invention.
The various substituents (e.g., R1, D, B, A) also include stereocenters in some embodiments and all such stereocenters and stereoisomeric mixtures are included in the scope of the present invention.
The present invention includes tautomers of any of the disclosed compounds.
Additional definitions are set forth throughout this disclosure.

Pharmaceutical Formulations and Routes of Administration
The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may be administered by a variety of routes, including orally, nasally, and by injection (e.g., subcutaneously, intravenously, and intraperitoneally).
The compounds or pharmaceutical compositions may be administered orally in the form of a solid or liquid dosage form. In both, the compounds or pharmaceutical compositions may be coated in a material to protect it from the action of acids and other natural conditions which may inactivate the compound. The compounds or pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated as aqueous solutions, liquid dispersions, (ingestible) tablets, buccal tablets, troches, capsules, elixirs, suspensions, syrups, and wafers. The oral dosage forms may include excipients known in the art, such as binders, disintegrating agents, flavorants, antioxidants, and preservatives. Liquid dosage forms may include diluents such as saline or an aqueous buffer.
For nasal administration, the preparation can contain a compound or pharmaceutical composition of the invention, dissolved or suspended in a liquid carrier, such as an aqueous carrier, for aerosol application. The carrier can contain additives such as solubilizing agents, e.g., propylene glycol, surfactants, absorption enhancers such as lecithin (phosphatidylcholine) or cyclodextrin, or preservatives such as parabens. Solutions or suspensions may be applied directly to the nasal cavity by conventional means, for example with a dropper, pipette, or spray. The formulations may be provided in single or multidose form. In the latter case of a dropper or pipette, this may be achieved by the patient administering an appropriate predetermined volume of the solution or suspension. In the case of a spray, this may be achieved for example by means of a metering atomizing spray pump. To improve nasal delivery and retention, the compounds according to the invention may be encapsulated with cyclodextrins, or formulated with their agents expected to enhance delivery and retention in the nasal mucosa.
The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions may also be administered by injection. Formulations suitable for injection may include sterile aqueous solutions (where water soluble) or dispersions, and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. The composition may be sterile and be fluid to the extent that easy syringability exists. It may be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The carrier can be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils. The proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersion and by the use of surfactants. Prevention of the action of microorganisms can be achieved by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, and ascorbic acid. In many cases, it will be preferable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, sodium chloride, or polyalcohols such as mannitol and sorbitol, in the composition. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions can be brought about by including in the composition an agent which delays absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate or gelatin.
Sterile injectable solutions can be prepared by incorporating the therapeutic compound or pharmaceutical composition in the required amount in an appropriate solvent with one or a combination of ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by filtered sterilization. Generally, dispersions are prepared by incorporating the therapeutic compound into a sterile carrier which contains a basic dispersion medium and the required other ingredients from those enumerated above. In the case of sterile powders for the preparation of sterile injectable solutions, the methods of preparation include vacuum drying and freeze-drying, which yields a powder of the active ingredient (i.e., the therapeutic compound) plus any additional desired ingredient from a previously sterile-filtered solution thereof.
The actual dosage amount of the compound administered to a subject may be determined by physical and physiological factors such as age, sex, body weight, severity of condition, the type of disease being treated, previous or concurrent therapeutic interventions, idiopathy of the subject, and the route of administration. These factors may be determined by a skilled artisan. The practitioner responsible for administration will typically determine the concentration of active ingredient(s) in a composition and appropriate dose(s) for the individual subject.
In one embodiment, a human subject is administered the daily doses of from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 100 mg/kg.
Single or multiple doses of the compounds or pharmaceutical compositions are contemplated. Desired time intervals for delivery of multiple doses can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art employing no more than routine experimentation. As an example, subjects may be administered two doses daily at approximately 12 hour intervals. In some embodiments, the compound or pharmaceutical composition is administered once a day. In other embodiments, the compound or pharmaceutical composition is delivered two times a day. In still other embodiments, the compound or pharmaceutical composition is delivered three times a day.
The compounds or pharmaceutical compositions may be administered on a routine schedule. As used herein a routine schedule refers to a predetermined designated period of time. The routine schedule may encompass periods of time which are identical or which differ in length, as long as the schedule is predetermined. For instance, the routine schedule may involve administration four times a day, three times a day, twice a day, every day, every two days, every three days, every four days, every five days, every six days, a weekly basis, a monthly basis or any set number of days or weeks there-between. Alternatively, the predetermined routine schedule may involve administration on a twice daily basis for the first week, followed by a daily basis for several months. In other embodiments, the invention provides that the compound or pharmaceutical composition may be taken orally and that the timing of which is or is not dependent upon food intake. Thus, for example, the compound or pharmaceutical composition can be taken every morning and/or every evening, regardless of when the subject has eaten or will eat.

Compounds of the invention show attractive pharmaceutical and biological properties for the treatment of PKAN disorders. Compounds from the invention demonstrate the ability to increase Coenzyme A (CoA or CoA-SH) levels in cell lines (e.g., neuroblastoma) in which the PANK2 gene has been silenced (Table 5).
A human neuroblastoma IMR32 cell line (ATCC) with stably PANK2 silencing was obtained by lentiviral-delivered small hairpin RNA and cultured in MEM (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 2 mM glutamine, 1% penicillin-streptomycin, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 1 mM non essential amino acids and 1.5 g/l sodium bicarbonate.
For lentiviral shRNA expression, Human Emryonic Kidney HEK-293T cells (ATCC) were transfected with the appropriate pGFP-Lenti-shRNA constructs and packaging plasmids according to manufacturer's protocol (Origene Technologies, Inc.). Four different gene-specific shRNA expression vectors designed against multiple splice variants of PANK2 (Gene ID 80025) were used for transfection. A non-silencing shRNA construct (scrambled shRNA) and an empty vector expressing GFP alone were used as negative controls. The GFP tag subcloned into the lentiviral vectors was used to monitor the transfection efficiency.
IMR32 cells were plated on 150 cm dishes 48 h before transduction with lentiviral particles.
Three days after transduction medium was removed and replaced with fresh medium containing 1 μg/μl puromycin. Medium was replaced every 48 h. Levels of PANK2 expression on selected clones was assessed by Western Blot analysis.
To quantify CoA, PANK2−/− IMR32 cells were plated on 12-well culture plates (Corning) at a density of 0.2×106 cells per well. After 72 h, compounds were freshly dissolved in DMSO and added to the culture medium to yield a final solvent concentration of 0.1% (v/v). Controls with medium containing 0.1% DMSO without test compounds were also included in each plate. Compound treated cells were incubated for 24 h at 37° C. Treatment was repeated after 24 h with newly dissolved compound and cells were further incubated at 37° C. for additional 24 h. Before LC-MS analysis of CoA levels, cells were harvested, counted, and collected in a 15 ml falcon tube and centrifuged at 200×g for 5 min at 4° C. Supernatant was removed and cell pellet was washed in 10 ml of ice-cold PBS. To further confirm that the numbers of cells in each sample were equivalent, an equal fraction of pellet was collected from each sample and subjected to protein determination analysis. After centrifugation and supernatant removal, the cell pellet was rapidly frozen in Liquid Nitrogen and stored at −80° C. until analysis.
Intracellular CoA levels were calculated considering an intracellular volume of 1 million cells=2 μl.
The 1×106 cellular pellet was extracted with 120 μl of aqueous 20% TFA. This solution was stirred for 2 min, sonicated in ultrasonic bath for 2 min, then stirred again for 1 min, and centrifuged for 15 min at 14000 g and at 4° C.
100 μL samples of supernatant were dried under N2 at 20° C. in the dark.
Samples were re-dissolved in 100 μl of 10 mM NH4+ AcO− buffer pH 5.1+IS (Dextrorphan 50 ng/ml), stirred for 2 min, sonicated in ultrasonic bath for 1 min, then stirred again for 1 min, and injected into LC-MS.
LC-MS/MS was performed using an Agilent HPLC (1100 Series, USA). The LC system was interfaced with an API-4000 Q-Trap triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (AB Sciex, Toronto, Canada) equipped with a TurbolonSpray ionization source operating in positive ion mode. Analyst™ software version 1.6 (AB Sciex, Toronto, Canada) was used for data acquisition and processing. CoA was separated using a Luna C18 column (2.0×50 mm; 5 μm particle size), column at 25° C. and flow rate of 0.2 ml/min. Injection volume was 15 μl. The mobile phases consisted of water containing 10 mM ammonium acetate pH 7 (mobile phase A) and MeCN-2-propanol 9:1 (mobile phase B). Elution was performed using a gradient starting at 2% B, holding at 2% B until 0.1 min, increasing to 98% B at 3.2 min, holding at 98% B until 4.5 min, returning to 2% B at 4.6 min and holding at 2% B until 7.5 min. Precursor ions and MRM transitions used were: CoA m/z 768.1→261.6 and 768.1→136.1.
Results for selected compounds tested in PANK2 silenced cells are reported in Table 5. Results are expressed as fold increase in CoA levels relative to controls (using LC-MS quantification of free CoA).
Compounds disclosed herein have desirable stability properties when measured in aqueous solution. For example, in phosphate buffered saline solution both diastereoisomers of Compound No. 11 have half-lives >3600 min.
To measure chemical stability in aqueous solution, the half-life (t1/2), or time needed for the concentration to decrease by half, was determined for select compounds in phosphate buffered saline solution. Compounds were dissolved in a solution containing 10 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.5) and 5% of D2O to a final concentration of −1 mM. All spectra were obtained at 37° C. on a Bruker Avance 600 NMR spectrometer equipped with an inverse broad-band probe with z-gradients. Data were obtained every 15 min for a total time period of 4 h or longer, according to the observed stability. 31P NMR was performed at 242.55 MHz, with gated decoupling of the protons. An observation frequency range of 14619.9 Hz and 32 K complex data points were used for acquisition. A pulse angle of 90° and a 4-sec pulse cycle were utilized. Thirty-two accumulations were obtained before Fourier transformation of the free induction decay. 1H NMR spectra were acquired using the 1DNOESY experiment with water presaturation for better solvent suppression. An observation frequency range of 12019.23 Hz, a 10-sec pulse cycle, and 32 K complex data points were used for acquisition. Sixty-four scans were added prior to Fourier transformation. Integral data were obtained using the TopSpin software.
Stability was determined based on analysis of disappearance of the compounds as a function of incubation time. Quantification of test compounds was measured as a peak area relative to an internal standard. The elimination constant, k, was calculated by plotting mean disappearance values on a semi-logarithmic scale and fitting with a best fit linear regression. The half-life (t1/2) expressed in hours was derived using Equation 1:

Compounds disclosed herein have desirable stability properties in plasma.
Compounds and positive control samples were dissolved in 100% DMSO at 3 mM. To investigate the stability of the test compounds in plasma, samples were made by diluting test compounds into plasma from the stock solutions to obtain a test compound concentration of 3 μM (0.1% DMSO). Before addition of a test compound, 990 μl of plasma were preincubated at 37° C. for 5 min in eppendorf. After addition of a test compound, 70 μl for each time point were transferred to a 96-deepwell plate, previously warmed at 37° C. in a DUBNOFF water bath. Each compound was tested at five time points, in duplicate (10, 20, 30, 40 and 60 min). At each time point, an aliquot of 50 μl was taken and transferred to a new 96-deepwell plate, and the reaction was stopped with 200 μl of 100% acetonitrile containing 0.1% formic acid and the appropriate internal standard. Then samples were centrifuged at 1100×g for 30 min at +4° C. and supernatants were transferred to a new 96-deepwell plate. Samples were evaporated under N2 and reconstituted in H2O/ACN 0.1% Formic Acid (98:2). Analysis was performed without a calibration curve (Acquity UPLC-Waters; SciexAPI4000). Time 0 was obtained by adding acetonitrile before addition of the test compound. Stability was determined based on analysis of disappearance of the compounds as a function of incubation time. Quantification of test compounds was measured as a peak area relative to an internal standard. The elimination constant k was calculated by plotting mean disappearance values on a semi-logarithmic scale and fitting with a best fit linear regression. The half-life (t1/2) expressed in hours was derived using Equation 1 as shown in Example 64. For those compounds for which half-life could not be calculated, data are reported as: <0.16 or >1. Stability data for compounds in mouse and human plasma are shown in Table 7.

Stability in hepatocytes for select compounds disclosed in the application was evaluated in two species (mouse and human) according to the following procedure. Compounds and positive control samples were dissolved in 100% DMSO at 5 mM. Cryopreserved hepatocytes were thawed and resuspended in Hepatocyte Basal Medium (HBM-Lonza CC-3199) supplemented with CC-4182 (complete hepatocyte culture medium). Test compounds were diluted into cell suspension (1 million cells/ml) from the stock solutions to have a test compound concentration of 5 μM (0.1% DMSO). Incubation was performed in 24-well plates, at 37° C. in a DUBNOFF water bath, under low shaking. Each compound was tested at 6 time points, in duplicates (0, 15, 30, 60, 120 and 240 min). At each time point, an aliquot of 120 μl was taken and transferred to a 96-well deep plate. The reaction was stopped with the addition of one volume of 100% acetonitrile plus 0.1% formic acid and the appropriate internal standard. Then samples were centrifuged at 1100×g for 30 min at +4° C. and supernatants were transferred to a new 96-deepwell plate. Samples were evaporated under N2 and reconstituted in H2O/ACN 0.1% Formic Acid (98:2). Analysis was performed without a calibration curve (Acquity UPLC-Waters; Sciex API4000). Time 0 was obtained adding acetonitrile before addition of the test compound. Stability was determined based on analysis of disappearance of the compounds as a function of incubation time.

The half-life (t1/2) expressed in hours is derived using Equation 1 as shown in Example 64. For those compounds for which half-life could not be calculated, data are reported as: <0.25 or >4. Stability data for compounds in hepatocytes are shown in Table 8.

Compounds disclosed herein show the potential to reach mammalian brain by crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB) from systemic circulation. Both diastereoisomers of selected exemplary compounds of the invention exhibit permeability in a porcine brain endothelial cell (PBEC) model of the mammalian BBB, as summarized in Table 9. The porcine brain endothelial cell permeability assay is an in vitro BBB model to be used for the prediction of central nervous system (CNS) drug permeability in vivo and for ranking or prioritization of compounds according to their permeability. This system can also be used for mechanistic studies and drug delivery strategies via receptor-mediated transport (transcytosis). The system is a two-dimensional co-culture, non-contact model of two types of primary cells: primary brain endothelial cells obtained from fresh porcine brains, and primary rat astrocytes, obtained from neonatal rats. This ensures barrier formation and functional expression of key transporters.
The endothelial cells were cultured on rat-tail collagen type I and human fibronectin coated Transwell polycarbonate inserts (surface area 0.7 cm2; pore size 0.4 μm) and the inserts were placed in 24-well plates containing confluent rat astrocytes. This system allows for the formation of a differentiated BBB model suitable for compound permeability in 10 days.
On the day of the experiment, culture medium was removed and cells were pre-incubated for 30 min with HBSS containing 20 mM Hepes pH 7.4 and 0.1% BSA. Donor volume (apical) was 400 μl and receiver volume (basal) 900 μl. Compounds were diluted in assay medium (at the desired concentration) and added to the luminal side (to mimic blood to brain passage). Transport was measured usually after 60 min by detecting the amount of compound from the basal (brain side). The integrity of the cell layers was assessed by measuring the transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) and by monitoring FITC-dextran (40 KDa) permeation. Inserts with TEER values >500 Ω/cm2 were selected for permeability studies. As FITC-dextran cannot freely permeate lipophilic barriers, a high degree of FITC-dextran transport indicates poor integrity of the cell layer and wells with high FITC-dextran permeability were excluded. FITC-dextran was included as internal control in each insert used for permeability studies. Fluorescence was measured using a fluorimetric detector. Radioactivity was measured by scintillation counting. For LC-MS/MS analysis, aliquots (200 μl) from the basal compartment were diluted with an equal volume of 100% acetonitrile containing 0.1% formic acid, centrifuged to remove cell debris, and evaporated under N2. After reconstitution, samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS. Mass balance was determined considering the amount of compound recovered in the donor and receiver chamber at the end of the assay relative to the amount added to the donor chamber at time 0.
Permeability was defined as the apparent permeability coefficient (Papp), which is a measure of the appearance rate of the compound in the receiver chamber, expressed in cm/s. Papp is calculated according the following equation:
P
app[cm/sec]=Vd*ΔMr/A*Md*Δt, Equation 2:
where
Vd=volume in the donor compartment in cm3 or mL;
ΔMr=total amount of compound in the receiver compartment after t seconds;
Md=donor amount (added at time 0)
Δt=time measured in seconds
A=filter area in cm2 (for 24 well plate, A=0.7 cm2).
To correct for the contribution of filter and substrate, Papp was also determined for the cell-free system. Permeability of the endothelial cell layer was determined using the following equation:
1/Pe=1/(Ptotal−(1/Pf)), Equation 3:
where
Ptotal=the P of the total system,
Pf=P for the cell-free filter, and
Pe=P for the endothelial cell layer alone. In this equation, the total resistance of the system towards passage of a substance is additively composed of two parallel resistances: that of the cell monolayer and that of the filter.
