Apocynum venetum extract does not induce CYP3A and P-glycoprotein in rats.
We investigated the effect of Apocynum venetum L. extract (AV) on the activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A and P-glycoprotein (P-gp). The plasma concentration of nifedipine (NF), which is a substrate for CYP3A, did not change after oral administration with AV (3.3 mg/kg). Also, AV (3.3 and 33 mg/kg) did not affect the intestinal absorption of NF. In the rats treated with multiple administration...
متن کاملPregnancy does not increase CYP3A or P-glycoprotein activity in the non-human primate, Macaca nemestrina.
Plasma concentrations of protease inhibitors are lower in pregnant women than in nonpregnant women or men. Using nelfinavir as a model protease inhibitor, we have shown that this phenomenon can be reproduced in a representative non-human primate model, Macaca nemestrina (J Pharmacol Exp Ther 329:1016-1022, 2009). Nelfinavir is cleared from the body predominantly by CYP3A metabolism and P-glycop...
متن کاملThe Improvement of Sleep by Oral Intake of GABA and Apocynum venetum Leaf Extract.
The effects of two food materials, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) produced by natural fermentation and Apocynum venetum leaf extract (AVLE), on the improvement of sleep were investigated in humans. The electroencephalogram (EEG) test revealed that oral administration of GABA (100 mg) and AVLE (50 mg) had beneficial effects on sleep. GABA shortened sleep latency by 5.3 min and AVLE increased non-rap...
متن کاملEndothelium-Dependent Relaxation Effect of Apocynum venetum Leaf Extract via Src/PI3K/Akt Signalling Pathway
Botanical herbs are consumed globally not only as an essential diet but also as medicines or as functional/recreational food supplements. The extract of the Apocynum venetum leaves (AVLE), also known as Luobuma, exerts its antihypertensive effect via dilating the blood vessels in an endothelium- and concentration-dependent manner with optimal effect seen at as low as 10 µg/mL. A commercial Luob...
متن کاملFunctional interactions between P-glycoprotein and CYP3A in drug metabolism.
The interaction between drug-metabolising enzymes and active transporters is an emerging concept in pharmacokinetics. In the gut mucosa, P-glycoprotein and cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A functionally interact in three ways: i) drugs are repeatedly taken up and pumped out of the enterocytes by P-glycoprotein, thus increasing the probability of drugs being metabolised; ii) P-glycoprotein keeps intracell...
