The roles of human cytochrome P450 (P450 or CYP) 2A6 in the oxidation of flavanone [(2R)- and (2S)-enantiomers] and flavone were studied in human liver microsomes and recombinant human P450 enzymes. CYP2A6 was highly active in oxidizing flavanone to form flavone, 2′-hydroxy-, 4′-, and 6-hydroxyflavanones and in oxidizing flavone to form mono- and di-hydroxylated products, such as mono-hydroxy flavones M6, M7, and M11 and di-hydroxy flavones M3, M4, and M5. Liver microsomes prepared from human sample HH2, defective in coumarin 7-hydroxylation activity, were very inefficient in forming 2′-hydroxyflavanone from flavanone and a mono-hydroxylated product, M6, from flavone. Coumarin and anti-CYP2A6 antibodies strongly inhibited the formation of these metabolites in microsomes prepared from liver samples HH47 and 54, which were active in coumarin oxidation activities. Molecular docking analysis showed that the C2′-position of (2R)-flavanone (3.8 Å) was closer to the iron center of CYP2A6 than the C6-position (10 Å), while distances from C2′ and C6 of (2S)-flavanone to the CYP2A6 were 6.91 Å and 5.42 Å, respectively. These results suggest that CYP2A6 catalyzes site-specific oxidation of (racemic) flavanone and also flavone in human liver microsomes. CYP1A2 and CYP2B6 were also found to play significant roles in some of the oxidations of these flavonoids by human liver microsomes. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450 3A is the main enzyme subfamily involved in the metabolism of a variety of marketed medicines. It is generally believed that the substrate specificity of polymorphic P450 3A5 is similar to that of the predominant P450 3A4 isoform, although some differences in catalytic properties have been found. It has been hypothesized that individuals with CYP3A5*1 (P450 3A5 expresser) might clear the HIV protease inhibitor saquinavir, administered by mouth, more rapidly than subjects lacking functional CYP3A5 alleles. Enhanced midazolam hydroxylation and cyclosporin metabolism occur in an in vitro P450 3A5 system and in liver microsomes expressing P450 3A5 in the presence of thalidomide. However, inhibition constants ( Ki) of three triazole anti-fungal drugs (itraconazole, fluconazole, and voriconazole) for liver microsomal P450 3A5 are higher than for liver microsomal P450 3A4. To predict drug interactions in vivo, we estimated increases of areas under the curves (AUC) dependent on polymorphic P450 3A5 expression, using both 1 +[Inhibitor] / K i (recommended in US FDA guidance), and 1 +[Inhibitor] unbound / Ki (as recommended by Japanese MHLW Notice). Voriconazole would be expected to cause approximately a three-fold higher increase in AUC in subjects with CYP3A5*3/*3 than in those with CYP3A5*1/*3, especially when estimated using the FDA guidance. We conclude that drug interactions between marketed drugs may differ substantially between individuals with genetically distinct P450 3A5 catalytic functions. 相似文献

Although cytochrome P450 inhibition is the major drug–drug interaction (DDI) mechanism in clinical pharmacotherapy, DDI of a number of well-established drugs have not been investigated. Rifampicin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide and ethambutol combination therapy inhibits clearance of theophylline in patients with tuberculosis. We determined the inhibitory effects of ethambutol on the activities of nine CYP isoforms including CYP1A2, 2A6, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1 and 3A4 in pooled human liver microsomes (HLM). As measured by liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry, ethambutol exhibited strong inhibitory potential against CYP1A2 and CYP2E1, moderate against CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 and weak against CYP2A6, CYP2C9 and CYP3A4, based on the IC 50 values. The Ki value of ethambutol for CYP1A2 was 1.4 μM and for CYP2E1 was 2.9 μM. Inhibition of CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 was not increased by preincubation with ethambutol and β-nicotinamideadenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), suggesting that the ethambutol-induced CYP inhibition may not be metabolism-dependent. Kinetic analysis showed that the inhibition of CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 by ethambutol was best fit to a competitive inhibition model. Formation of 1-methylxanthene and 1,3-dimethyluric acid from theophylline in HLM was decreased to 47% and 36%, respectively, by 3.0 μM ethambutol, which is comparable to its IC 50 value against CYP1A2. Considering its maximal plasma concentrations of ∼10 μM and long half-life of ∼22 h, our findings raise the possibility that ethambutol causes significant DDIs in clinical situations with drugs with narrow therapeutic index, such as theophylline, in clinical situations. 相似文献

Ipriflavone, a synthetic flavonoid for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, has been reported to be extensively metabolized in man to seven metabolites (M1–M7). This study was performed to characterize the human liver cytochrome P450s (CYP) responsible for the metabolism of ipriflavone. Hydroxylation at the β-ring to M3, O-dealkylation to M1 and oxidation at isopropyl group to M4 and M5 are major pathways for ipriflavone metabolism in three different human liver microsome preparations. The specific CYPs responsible for ipriflavone oxidation to the active metabolites, M1, M3, M4 and M5 were identified using a combination of correlation analysis, immuno-inhibition, chemical inhibition in human liver microsomes and metabolism by expressed recombinant CYP enzymes. The inhibitory potencies of ipriflavone and its five metabolites, M1–M5 on seven clinically important CYPs were investigated in human liver microsomes. Our results demonstrate that CYP3A4 plays the major role in O-dealkylation of ipriflavone to M1 and CYP1A2 plays a dominant role in the formation of M3, M4 and M5. Ipriflavone and/or its five metabolites were found to inhibit potently the metabolism of CYPs 1A2, 2C8, 2C9 and 2C19 substrates. 相似文献

The mouse cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2A5 has recently been shown to function as hepatic “Bilirubin Oxidase” (Abu-Bakar, A., et al., 2011. Toxicol. Appl. Pharmacol. 257, 14-22). To date, no information is available on human CYP isoforms involvement in bilirubin metabolism. In this paper we provide novel evidence for human CYP2A6 metabolising the tetrapyrrole bilirubin. Incubation of bilirubin with recombinant yeast microsomes expressing the CYP2A6 showed that bilirubin inhibited CYP2A6-dependent coumarin 7-hydroxylase activity to almost 100% with an estimated K i of 2.23 μM. Metabolite screening by a high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry indicated that CYP2A6 oxidised bilirubin to biliverdin and to three other smaller products with m/z values of 301, 315 and 333. Molecular docking analyses indicated that bilirubin and its positively charged intermediate interacted with key amino acid residues at the enzyme's active site. They were stabilised at the site in a conformation favouring biliverdin formation. By contrast, the end product, biliverdin was less fitting to the active site with the critical central methylene bridge distanced from the CYP2A6 haem iron facilitating its release. Furthermore, bilirubin treatment of HepG2 cells increased the CYP2A6 protein and activity levels with no effect on the corresponding mRNA. Co-treatment with cycloheximide (CHX), a protein synthesis inhibitor, resulted in increased half-life of the CYP2A6 compared to cells treated only with CHX. Collectively, the observations indicate that the CYP2A6 may function as human “Bilirubin Oxidase” where bilirubin is potentially a substrate and a regulator of the enzyme. 相似文献

1.?Common marmosets ( Callithrix jacchus) are potentially useful nonhuman primate models for preclinical drug metabolism studies. However, the roles of marmoset cytochrome P450 (P450) isoforms in the oxidation of endobiotic progesterone have not been fully investigated. In this study, the roles of marmoset P450 isoforms in progesterone hydroxylation were extensively determined.2.?The activities of liver microsomes from individual marmosets with respect to progesterone 21/17α- and 16α/6β-hydroxylation were significantly correlated with those for flurbiprofen 4-hydroxylation and midazolam 1′-hydroxylation, respectively, as similar correlations have been found in humans. Anti-P450 2?C and 3?A antibodies suppressed progesterone 21/17α- and 16α/6β-hydroxylation, respectively, in marmoset liver microsomes.3.?Recombinant marmoset P450 2C58 and 2C19 catalyzed progesterone to form 21-hydroxyprogesterone and 16α-hydroxyprogesterone, respectively, as major products with high maximum velocity/ Km values of 0.53 and 0.089?mL/min/nmol, respectively. Recombinant marmoset P450 3A4/90 oxidized progesterone to form 6β-hydroxyprogesterone as a major product with homotropic cooperativity (>1 of Hill coefficients).4.?These results indicate that the overall activities and roles of liver microsomal P450 enzymes in marmoset livers are similar to those in humans, especially for progesterone 21/17α- and 16α/6β-hydroxylation by marmoset P450 2?C and 3?A enzymes, respectively, suggesting important roles for these P450 enzymes in the metabolism of endobiotics in marmosets. 相似文献

Metabolism of two triazole-containing antifungal azoles was studied using expressed human and rat cytochrome P450s (CYP) and liver microsomes. Substrate depletion methods were used due to the complex array of metabolites produced from myclobutanil and triadimefon. Myclobutanil was metabolized more rapidly than triadimefon, which is consistent with metabolism of the n-butyl side-chain in the former and the t-butyl group in the latter compound. Human and rat CYP2C and CYP3A enzymes were the most active. Metabolism was similar in microsomes prepared from livers of control and low-dose rats. High-dose (115?mg?kg ?1?day ?1 of triadimefon or 150?mg?kg ?1?day ?1 of myclobutanil) rats showed increased liver weight, induction of total CYP, and increased metabolism of the two triazoles, though the apparent Km appeared unchanged relative to the control. These data identify CYP enzymes important for the metabolization of these two triazoles. Estimated hepatic clearances suggest that CYP induction may have limited impact in vivo. 相似文献

CYP2A6 is a major hepatic member of the cytochrome P450 family in humans. Much variation in CYP2A6 levels and activity can be attributed to genetic polymorphisms of this gene. CYP2A6*25 comprises an amino acid substitution, F118L. To clarify the effect of the leucine substitution at position 118 in CYP2A6.25, this variant, wild type CYP2A6 and three additional variants consisting of artificial mutations at the substrate binding site (position 481) suggested by earlier reports using random mutagenesis studies [CYP2A6.1, CYP2A6.25, CYP2A6.1(F118A), CYP2A6.1(A481G) and CYP2A6.25(A481G)], were co‐expressed with NADPH‐cytochrome P450 reductase in E. coli. The hydroxylase activity of these variants toward 7‐ethoxycoumarin, coumarin, flavone, α‐naphthoflavone, flavanone and hydroxyflavanone were examined. All the mutants had lower activities for coumarin 7‐hydroxylation than the wild type. All the mutants showed higher activities for flavone and α‐naphthoflavone compared with CYP2A6.1. CYP2A6.1 had the highest flavanone 2′‐hydroxylase activity, whereas CYP2A6.25 had the highest 6‐ and 4′‐hydroxylase activities. CYP2A6.1(F118A), CYP2A6.1(A481G) and CYP2A6.25(A481G) had higher flavanone 3′‐hydroxylase activities than CYP2A6.1 and CYP2A6.25. Furthermore, 4′‐hydroxyflavanone was metabolized by CYP2A6.25. These results indicate that the CYP2A6.25 mutation confers new substrate specificity towards flavonoids. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

1.?Curculigoside possesses numerous pharmacological activities, and however, little data available for the effects of curculigoside on the activity of human liver cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes.2.?This study investigates the inhibitory effects of curculigoside on the main human liver CYP isoforms. In this study, the inhibitory effects of curculigoside on the eight human liver CYP isoforms 1A2, 2A6, 2E1, 2D6, 2C9, 2C19, 2C8, and 3A4 were investigated in human liver microsomes.3.?The results indicated that curculigoside could inhibit the activity of CYP1A2, CYP2C8, and CYP3A4, with IC 50 values of 15.26, 11.93, and 9.47?μM, respectively, but that other CYP isoforms were not affected. Enzyme kinetic studies showed that curculigoside was not only a noncompetitive inhibitor of CYP1A2, but also a competitive inhibitor of CYP2C8 and CYP3A4, with Ki values of 5.43, 3.54, and 3.35?μM, respectively. In addition, curculigoside is a time-dependent inhibitor for CYP1A2, with kinact/ KI values of 0.056/6.15?μM ?1?min ?1.4.?The in vitro studies of curculigoside with CYP isoforms suggest that curculigoside has the potential to cause pharmacokinetic drug interactions with other coadministered drugs metabolized by CYP1A2, CYP2C8, and CYP3A4. Further in vivo studies are needed in order to evaluate the significance of this interaction. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSEChalepensin is a pharmacologically active furanocoumarin compound found in rue, a medicinal herb. Here we have investigated the inhibitory effects of chalepensin on cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2A6 in vitro and in vivo. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACHMechanism-based inhibition was studied in vitro using human liver microsomes and bacterial membranes expressing genetic variants of human CYP2A6. Effects in vivo were studied in C57BL/6J mice. CYP2A6 activity was assayed as coumarin 7-hydroxylation (CH) using HPLC and fluorescence measurements. Metabolism of chalepensin was assessed with liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS). KEY RESULTSCYP2A6.1, without pre-incubation with NADPH, was competitively inhibited by chalepensin. After pre-incubation with NADPH, inhibition by chalepensin was increased (IC 50 value decreased by 98%). This time-dependent inactivation ( kinact 0.044 min −1; KI 2.64 µM) caused the loss of spectrally detectable P450 content and was diminished by known inhibitors of CYP2A6, pilocarpine or tranylcypromine, and by glutathione conjugation. LC/MS analysis of chalepensin metabolites suggested an unstable epoxide intermediate was formed, identified as the corresponding dihydrodiol, which was then conjugated with glutathione. Compared with the wild-type CYP2A6.1, the isoforms CYP2A6.7 and CYP2A6.10 were less inhibited. In mouse liver microsomes, pre-incubation enhanced inhibition of CH activity. Oral administration of chalepensin to mice reduced hepatic CH activity ex vivo. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONSChalepensin was a substrate and a mechanism-based inhibitor of human CYP2A6. Formation of an epoxide could be a key step in this inactivation. ‘Poor metabolizers’ carrying CYP2A6* 7 or * 10 may be less susceptible to inhibition by chalepensin. Given in vivo, chalepensin decreased CYP2A activity in mice. 相似文献

Context: Dihydromyricetin (DHM) is the most abundant and active flavonoid component isolated from Ampelopsis grossedentata (Hand-Mazz) W.T. Wang (Vitaceae) and it possesses numerous pharmacological activities. However, whether DHM affects the activity of human liver cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes remains unclear. Materials and methods: The inhibitory effects of DHM on eight human liver CYP isoforms (i.e., 1A2, 3A4, 2A6, 2E1, 2D6, 2C9, 2C19 and 2C8) were investigated in vitro using human liver microsomes (HLMs). Results: The results showed that DHM could inhibit the activity of CYP3A4, CYP2E1 and CYP2D6, with IC 50 values of 14.75, 25.74 and 22.69?μM, respectively, but that other CYP isoforms were not affected. Enzyme kinetic studies showed that DHM was not only a non-competitive inhibitor of CYP3A4 but also a competitive inhibitor of CYP2E1 and CYP2D6, with Ki values of 6.06, 9.24 and 10.52?μM, respectively. In addition, DHM is a time-dependent inhibitor for CYP3A4 with KI/ Kinact value of 12.17/0.057?min ?1?μM ?1. Discussion and conclusion: The in vitro studies of DHM with CYP isoforms indicate that DHM has the potential to cause pharmacokinetic drug interactions with other co-administered drugs metabolized by CYP3A4, CYP2E1 and CYP2D6. Further clinical studies are needed to evaluate the significance of this interaction. 相似文献

Abstract1.?Sophocarpine is a biologically active component isolated from the foxtail-like sophora herb and seed that is often orally administered for the treatment of cancer and chronic bronchial asthma. However, whether sophocarpine affects the activity of human liver cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes remains unclear.2.?In this study, the inhibitory effects of sophocarpine on the eight human liver CYP isoforms (CYP1A2, 3A4, 2A6, 2E1, 2D6, 2C9, 2C19, and 2C8) were investigated in vitro using human liver microsomes (HLMs).3.?The results indicate that sophocarpine could inhibit the activity of CYP3A4 and 2C9, with the IC 50 values of 12.22 and 15.96 ?μM, respectively, but that other CYP isoforms were not affected. Enzyme kinetic studies showed that sophocarpine is not only a noncompetitive inhibitor of CYP3A4 but also a competitive inhibitor of CYP2C9, with Ki values of 6.74 and 9.19 ?μM, respectively. Also, sophocarpine is a time-dependent inhibitor of CYP3A4 with Kinact/ KI value of 0.082/21.54 ?μM ?1?min ?1.4.?The in vitro studies of sophocarpine with CYP isoforms suggested that sophocarpine has the potential to cause pharmacokinetic drug interactions with other co-administered drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 and 2C9.

Objective: The purpose of the present study was to elucidate the cytochrome P450 (P450) isoform(s) involved in the metabolism of loperamide (LOP) to N-demethylated LOP (DLOP) in human liver microsomes. Methods: Three established approaches were used to identify the P450 isoforms responsible for LOP N-demethylation using human liver microsomes and cDNA-expressed P450 isoforms: (1) correlation of LOP N-demethylation activity with marker P450 activities in a panel of human liver microsomes, (2) inhibition of enzyme activity by P450-selective inhibitors, and (3) measurement of DLOP formation by cDNA-expressed P450 isoforms. The relative contribution of P450 isoforms involved in LOP N-demethylation in human liver microsomes were estimated by applying relative activity factor (RAF) values. Results: The formation rate of DLOP showed biphasic kinetics, suggesting the involvement of multiple P450 isoforms. Apparent Km and Vmax values were 21.1 M and 122.3 pmol/min per milligram of protein for the high-affinity component and 83.9 M and 412.0 pmol/min per milligram of protein for the low-affinity component, respectively. Of the cDNA-expressed P450 s tested, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4 catalyzed LOP N-demethylation. LOP N-demethylation was significantly inhibited when coincubated with quercetin (a CYP2C8 inhibitor) and ketoconazole (a CYP3A4 inhibitor) by 40 and 90%, respectively, but other chemical inhibitors tested showed weak or no significant inhibition. DLOP formation was highly correlated with CYP3A4-catalyzed midazolam 1-hydroxylation ( rs=0.829; P<0.01), CYP2B6-catalzyed 7-ethoxy-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin O-deethylation ( rs=0.691; P<0.05), and CYP2C8-catalyzed paclitaxel 6-hydroxylation ( rs=0.797; P<0.05). Conclusion: CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4 catalyze LOP N-demethylation in human liver microsomes, and among them, CYP2C8 and CYP3A4 may play a crucial role in LOP metabolism at the therapeutic concentrations of LOP. Coadministration of these P450 inhibitors may cause drug interactions with LOP. However, the clinical significance of potential interaction of LOP metabolism by CYP2C8 and CYP3A4 inhibitors should be studied further. 相似文献

Risperidone is a relatively new antipsychotic drug that has been reported to improve both the positive and the negative symptoms
of schizophrenia and produces relatively few extrapyramidal side effects at low doses. Formation of 9-hydroxyrisperidone,
an active metabolite, is the most important metabolic pathway of risperidone in human. In the present study, in vitro metabolism
of risperidone (100 μM) was investigated using the recombinant human cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP2C8,
CYP2C9-arg 144, CYP2C9-cys 144, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 supplemented with an NADPH-generating system. 9-Hydroxyrisperidone was determined by
a new HPLC method with an Hypersil CN column and a UV detector. Of these enzymes, CYPs 2D6, 3A4 and 3A5 were found to be the
ones capable of metabolising risperidone to 9-hydroxyrisperidone, with activities of 7.5, 0.4 and 0.2 pmol pmol –1 CYP min –1, respectively. A correlation study using a panel of human liver microsomes showed that the formation of 9-hydroxyrisperidone
is highly correlated with CYP2D6 and 3A activities. Thus, both CYP2D6 and 3A4 are involved in the 9-hydroxylation of risperidone
at the concentration of risperidone used in this study. This observation is confirmed by the findings that both quinidine
(inhibitor of CYP2D6) and ketoconazole (inhibitor of CYP3A4) can inhibit the formation of 9-hydroxyrisperidone. Furthermore,
inducers of CYP can significantly increase the formation of 9-hydroxyrisperidone in rat. The formation of 9-hydroxyrisperidone
is highly correlated with testosterone 6β-hydroxylase activities, suggesting that inducible CYP3A contributes significantly
to the metabolism of risperidone in rat.

1. Propafenone, an antiarrhythmic drug, is a typical human cytochrome P450 (P450) 2D6 substrate used in preclinical studies. Here, propafenone oxidation by mammalian liver microsomes was investigated in vitro. 2. Liver microsomes from humans and marmosets preferentially mediated propafenone 5-hydroxylation, minipig, rat and mouse livers primarily mediated 4′-hydroxylation, but cynomolgus monkey and dog liver microsomes differently mediated N-despropylation. 3. Quinine, ketoconazole or anti-P450 2D antibodies suppressed propafenone 4′/5-hydroxylation in human and rat liver microsomes. Pretreatments with β-naphthoflavone or dexamethasone increased N-despropylation in rat livers. 4. Recombinant rat P450 2D2 efficiently catalysed propafenone 4′-hydroxylation in a substrate inhibition manner, comparable to rat liver microsomes, while human P450 2D6 displayed propafenone 5-hydroxylation. Human and rat P450 1A, 2C and 3A enzymes mediated propafenone N-despropylation with high capacities. 5. Carbon-4′ of propafenone docked favourably into the active site of P450 2D2 based on an in silico model; in contrast, carbon-5 of propafenone docked into human P450 2D6. 6. These results suggest that the major roles of individual P450 2D enzymes in regioselective hydroxylations of propafenone differ between human and rat livers, while the minor roles of P450 1A, 2C and 3A enzymes for propafenone N-despropylation are similar in livers of both species. 相似文献

Chloroquine has been used for many decades in the prophylaxis and treatment of malaria. It is metabolized in humans through the N-dealkylation pathway, to desethylchloroquine (DCQ) and bisdesethylchloroquine (BDCQ), by cytochrome P450 (CYP). However, until recently, no data are available on the metabolic pathway of chloroquine. Therefore, the metabolic pathway of chloroquine was evaluated using human liver microsomes and cDNA-expressed CYPs. Chloroquine is mainly metabolized to DCQ, and its Eadie-Hofstee plots were biphasic, indicating the involvement of multiple enzymes, with apparent Km and Vmax values of 0.21 mM and 1.02 nmol/min/mg protein 3.43 mM and 10.47 nmol/min/mg protein for high and low affinity components, respectively. Of the cDNA-expressing CYPs examined, CYP1A2, 2C8, 2C19, 2D6 and 3A4/5 exhibited significant DCQ formation. A study using chemical inhibitors showed only quercetin (a CYP2C8 inhibitor) and ketoconazole (a CYP3A4/5 inhibitor) inhibited the DCQ formation. In addition, the DCQ formation significantly correlated with the CYP3A4/5-catalyzed midazolam 1-hydroxylation (r = 0.868) and CYP2C8-catalyzed paclitaxel 6alpha-hydroxylation (r = 0.900). In conclusion, the results of the present study demonstrated that CYP2C8 and CYP3A4/5 are the major enzymes responsible for the chloroquine N-deethylation to DCQ in human liver microsomes. 相似文献

Context: Friedelin is a triterpenoid with several biological activities. However, the affects of Friedelin on the activity of human liver cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes remains unclear. Objective: This study investigates the inhibitory effects of Friedelin on the major human liver CYP isoforms (CYP3A4, 1A2, 2A6, 2E1, 2D6, 2C9, 2C19 and 2C8). Materials and methods: First, the inhibitory effects of Friedelin (100?μM) on the eight human liver CYP isoforms were investigated in vitro using human liver microsomes (HLMs), and then enzyme inhibition, kinetic studies, and time-dependent inhibition studies were conducted to investigate the IC 50, Ki and Kinact/ KI values of Friedelin. Results: The results indicate that Friedelin inhibited the activity of CYP3A4 and 2E1, with the IC 50 values of 10.79 and 22.54?μM, respectively, but other CYP isoforms were not affected. Enzyme kinetic studies showed that Friedelin is not only a noncompetitive inhibitor of CYP3A4, but also a competitive inhibitor of CYP2E1, with Ki values of 6.16 and 18.02?μM, respectively. In addition, Friedelin is a time-dependent inhibitor of CYP3A4 with Kinact/ Ki value of 4.84?nM/min. Discussion and conclusion: The in vitro studies of Friedelin with CYP isoforms suggested that Friedelin has the potential to cause pharmacokinetic drug interactions with other co-administered drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 and 2E1. Further clinical studies are needed to evaluate the significance of this interaction. 相似文献
