Biotransformation of coumarin derivatives. (2). Oxidative metabolism of 7-alkoxycoumarin by microsomal enzymes and a simple assay procedure for 7-alkoxycoumarin O-dealkylase.
The in vitro biotransformation of 7-alkoxycoumarin by rat liver microsomes was studied to develop a simple and accurate assay procedure for 7-alkoxycoumarin O-dealkylase. 7-Alkoxycoumarin was converted to the O-dealkylated metabolite, 7-hydroxycoumarin, by aerobic incubation of the parent compound with microsomes and NADPH, but the decreased amount of 7-alkoxycoumarin in the reaction mixture wa...
متن کاملHepatic enzyme induction: histopathology.
Hepatic enzyme induction is generally an adaptive response associated with increases in liver weight, induction of gene expression, and morphological changes in hepatocytes. The additive growth and functional demands that initiated the response to hepatic enzyme induction cover a wide range of stimuli including pregnancy and lactation, hormonal fluctuations, dietary constituents, infections ass...

متن کاملDepression of hepatic microsomal enzyme systems by lentinan in mice.
Studies were performed to determine the effects of an immunopotentiating agent, lentinan, on the hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes in mice. Lentinan was injected twice a day for two days, and the enzyme activities were determined 12 hr after the last injection of lentinan. A lentinan dose of over 0.25 mg/kg was required to cause a significant decrease (20-40%) in the hepatic microsomal aminopyr...
متن کاملHepatoprotective Activity of Capparis spinosa Root Bark Against CCl4 Induced Hepatic Damage in Mice
Many hepatoprotective herbal preparations have been recommended in alternative systems of medicine for the treatment of hepatic disorders. No systematic study has been done on protective efficacy of Capparis spinosa (Capparidaceae) to treat hepatic diseases. Protective action of C. spinosa ethanolic root bark extract was evaluated in this study in an animal model of hepatotoxicity, which was in...
