Competition between cytochrome P-450 isozymes for NADPH-cytochrome P-450 oxidoreductase affects drug metabolism.
NADPH-cytochrome P-450 oxidoreductase (CPR) is essential for the catalytic activity of cytochrome P-450 (P-450). On a molar basis, the amount of P-450 exceeds that of CPR in human liver. In this study, we investigated whether drug-drug interactions can occur as a result of competition between P-450 isozymes for this ancillary protein. For this purpose, combinations of P-450 isozymes were coexpr...
متن کاملCytochrome P-450 3A4: regulation and role in drug metabolism.
Cytochrome P-450 (P-450) 3A4 is the most abundant P-450 expressed in human liver and small intestine. P-450 3A4 contributes to the metabolism of approximately half the drugs in use today, and variations in its catalytic activity are important in issues of bioavailability and drug-drug interactions. The gene is known to be inducible by barbiturates, glucocorticoids, and rifampicin in humans and ...
متن کاملIsoform-selective metabolism of mianserin by cytochrome P-450 2D.
The involvement of cytochrome P-450 (CYP) 2D isoforms in the metabolism of mianserin and the stereoselectivity of their catalytic activities were investigated by using five CYP2D isoforms (CYP2D1, 2D2, 2D3, 2D4, and 2D6). Using RS-mianserin as a substrate, we found that five CYP2D isoforms had similar levels of 8-hydroxylation activity. However, N-demethylation activity differed among the isofo...
متن کاملCytochrome P-450 induction by clofibrate
Hypolipidaemic drugs induce peroxisomal proliferation in the liver and many induce the formation of the hepatic endoplasmic reticulum in general and the formation of cytochrome P-450 in particular. We have induced the formation of rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 by the administration of the hypolipidaemic drug clofibrate, isolated the endoplasmic reticulum, solubilized the cytochrome P-45...
متن کاملHuman cytochrome P-450 metabolism of retinals to retinoic acids.
Retinoic acids have important pleiotropic biological effects and thus the potential for human cytochrome P-450s (CYPs) to mediate retinoic acid synthesis was investigated. We examined the retinoic acid synthetic activity of human cDNA-expressed CYP1A1, 1A2, 1B1, 2A6, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, 3A4, 3A4+ cytochrome b(5) (b(5)), 3A5, and 4A11, expressed individually in insect cells together w...
