Cynomolgus and rhesus macaques are used in drug metabolism studies due to their evolutionary and phylogenetic closeness to humans. Cytochromes P450 (P450s or CYPs), including the CYP2C family enzyme, are important endogenous and exogenous substrate-metabolizing enzymes and play major roles in drug metabolism. In cynomolgus and rhesus macaques, six CYP2Cs have been identified and characterized, namely, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C18, CYP2C19, CYP2C76, and CYP2C93. In this study, CYP2C119, a new CYP2C, was identified and characterized in cynomolgus and rhesus macaques...

Cytochromes P450 (P450s or CYPs), especially the CYP2C family, are important drug-metabolizing enzymes that play major roles in drug metabolism. Tree shrews, a non-rodent primate-like species, are used in various fields of biomedical research, notably hepatitis virus infection; however, its drug-metabolizing enzymes have not been fully investigated. In this study, tree shrew CYP2C18, CYP2C76a, CYP2C76b, and CYP2C76c cDNAs were identified and contained open reading frames of 489 or 490 amino acids with high sequence identities (70-78 %) to human CYP2Cs...

Heat stress leads to the accumulation of lipid peroxides in Sertoli cells. Unrestricted lipid peroxidation of catalyzed polyunsaturated fatty acids by Cytochrome P450 (CYP) drive the ferroptosis. However, little is known about the role of CYP cyclooxygenase in heat stress-induced ferroptosis in Sertoli cells. In this study, we investigated the relationship between CYP cyclooxygenase and heat stress-induced ferroptosis in porcine Sertoli cells, as well as whether Ras-JNK signaling is involved in the process...

Irbesartan, a potent and selective angiotensin II type-1 (AT1 ) receptor blocker (ARB), is one of the representative medications for the treatment of hypertension. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 is primarily involved in the oxidation of irbesartan. CYP2C9 is highly polymorphic, and genetic polymorphism of this enzyme is the leading cause of significant alterations in the pharmacokinetics of irbesartan. This study aimed to establish the physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to predict the pharmacokinetics of irbesartan in different CYP2C9 genotypes...

Here, we describe PBPK modeling performed to assess the impact of glofitamab-associated transient increases in Interleukin 6 (IL-6) on the pharmacokinetics of several cytochrome P450 (CYP) substrates...

PURPOSE: The inhibitory effect of Apatinib on cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes has been studied. However, it is unknown whether the inhibition is related to the major metabolites, M1-1, M1-2 and M1-6. METHODS: A 5-in-1 cocktail system composed of CYP2B6/Cyp2b1, CYP2C9/Cyp2c11, CYP2E1/Cyp2e1, CYP2D6/Cyp2d1 and CYP3A/Cyp3a2 was used in this study. Firstly, the effects of APA and its main metabolites on the activities of HLMs, RLMs and recombinant isoforms was examined...

AIM: Genotype-guided dosing algorithms can explain about half of the interindividual variability in prothrombin time-international normalized ratio (PT-INR) under warfarin treatment. This study aimed to refine a published kinetic-pharmacodynamic model and guide warfarin dosage for an optimal PT-INR based on renal function. METHODS: Using a retrospective cohort of adult patients (>20 years) who were administered warfarin and underwent PT-INR measurements, we refined the kinetic-pharmacodynamic model with age and the genotypes of cytochrome P450 2C9 and vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 using the PRIOR subroutine in the nonlinear-mixed-effect modeling program...

Regulatory agencies worldwide expect that clinical pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between an investigational new drug and other drugs should be conducted during drug development as part of an adequate assessment of the drug's safety and efficacy. However, it is neither time nor cost efficient to test all possible DDI scenarios clinically. Phenytoin is classified by the Food and Drug Administration as a strong clinical index inducer of CYP3A4, and a moderate sensitive substrate of CYP2C9. A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) platform model was developed using GastroPlus® to assess DDIs with phenytoin acting as the victim (CYP2C9, CYP2C19) or perpetrator (CYP3A4)...

Nivasorexant, a selective orexin-1-receptor antagonist, has recently been assessed in the treatment of humans with binge-eating disorder. Herein, the inhibitory potential of nivasorexant on cytochromes P450 (CYPs) 2C9, 2C19, and 3A4 was evaluated. Human liver microsomes/recombinant CYP enzymes were evaluated in vitro. In vivo, a single-center, open-label, fixed-sequence study was performed in healthy adults to explore the effect of 100 mg nivasorexant administered twice daily (b.i.d.) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of flurbiprofen (50 mg, CYP2C9), omeprazole (20 mg, CYP2C19), midazolam (2 mg, CYP3A4) making use of a cocktail approach...

Lapatinib, an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor used as a first-line treatment for HER2-positive breast cancer, has been reported to be associated with hepatotoxicity; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we report that lapatinib causes cytotoxicity in multiple types of hepatic cells, including primary human hepatocytes, HepaRG cells, and HepG2 cells. A 24-h treatment with lapatinib induced cell cycle disturbances, apoptosis, and DNA damage, and decreased the protein levels of topoisomerase in HepG2 cells...

MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a literature review of studies on the genetic variations that affect the response to ARBs in Iraq...

Psoralen and isopsoralen are the major components responsible for Psoraleae Fructus-induced hepatotoxicity. This study explored the role of metabolic activation by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes in psoralen- and isopsoralen-induced cytotoxicity and its potential mechanisms. Inhibitors of CYP1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, and 3A4 were used to screen specific CYP enzymes responsible for the metabolic activation of psoralen and isopsoralen in mouse primary hepatocytes, which was verified using the corresponding transfected cell lines...

Warfarin administration poses a notable challenge in clinical practice due to the increased susceptibility of patients to major bleeding, particularly when co-administered with other medications capable of modulating its metabolic pathways. Among these medications, antibiotics have been recognized as potential agents that can either induce or inhibit cytochrome P450-2C9, thereby impacting the effects of warfarin. A wealth of evidence from numerous studies consistently supports an elevated risk of serious bleeding in patients concurrently receiving antibiotics and warfarin therapy...

Improper drug prescription is a main cause of both drug-related harms (inefficacy and toxicity) and ineffective spending and waste of the healthcare system's resources. Nowadays, strategies to support an improved, informed prescription process may benefit from the adequate use of pharmacogenomic testing. Using next-generation sequencing, we analyzed the genomic profile for three major cytochromes P450 (CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6) and studied the frequencies of dysfunctional isozymes (e.g., poor, intermediate, or rapid/ultra-rapid metabolizers) in a cohort of 298 Italian subjects...

Polymorphism in cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 enzyme is known to cause significant inter-individual differences in drug response and occurrence of adverse drug reactions. Different alleles of the CYP2C9 gene have been identified, but the notable alleles responsible for reduced enzyme activity are CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 . No pharmacogenetic data are available on CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles in the Pakistani population. In Pakistan, pharmacogenetics, which examines the relationship between genetic factors and drug response, are in the early stages of development...

The existing data regarding the effects of polyethylene (PE) microplastics (MPs) smaller than 5 mm in size on earthworms are insufficient to fully comprehend their toxicity. In this study, earthworms Eisenia fetida were exposed to artificially added PE at a concentration ranging from 0.05 to 20 g/kg soil (0.005%-2%) for 60 days to determine the concentration range causing negative effects on earthworms and to uncover the potential toxic mechanisms. The individual growth, reproduction, and metabolic enzyme activities, including phase I enzymes (cytochrome P450 [CYP] 1A2, 2B6, 2C9, and 3A4), and phase II metabolic enzymes (superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione sulfotransferase (GST)), and metabolomics were measured...
