Abstract: | The effect of host-mediating antitumor drugs on drug-metabolizing enzymes and cytochrome P-450 of the mouse liver was studied. Treatment of mice with a streptococcal preparation (OK-432), Bacillus Calmette-Guérin cell wall skeleton (BCG-CWS), or protein-bound polysaccharide (PSK) depressed aniline hydroxylase and aminopyrine N-demethylase activities in a dose-responding fashion. Cytochrome P-450 content of the hepatic microsomes was also decreased by the treatment. Time of sleeping induced by pentobarbital was prolonged by the drug treatment. |
