Biotransformation of parathion in human liver: participation of CYP3A4 and its inactivation during microsomal parathion oxidation.
Studies in rat liver have shown that cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes mediate the oxidative biotransformation of the phosphorothioate pesticide parathion to paraoxon and 4-nitrophenol. Transfer of the phosphorothioate thionosulfur atom to the CYP apoprotein results in amino acid modification and enzyme inactivation. Our study investigated the role of human hepatic CYP in parathion oxidation and th...
متن کاملCyp3a4 Is a Major Isoform Responsible for Oxidation of 7-hydroxy-d- Tetrahydrocannabinol to 7-oxo-d-tetrahydrocannabinol in Human Liver Microsomes
The human liver enzyme microsomal alcohol oxygenase was able to oxidize both 7aand 7b-hydroxy-D-tetrahydrocannabinol (7aand 7b-hydroxy-D-THC) to 7-oxo-D-THC. The oxidative activity was determined by using a panel of 12 individual cDNA-expressed human cytochrome P450s (CYPs) (1A1, 1A2, 2A6, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9Arg, 2C9-Cys, 2C19, 2D6-Met, 2D6-Val, 2E1 and 3A4). Among the CYP isoforms examined, CYP3A4 s...
متن کاملIsolation and pharmacological characterization of microsomal human liver flumazenil carboxylesterase.
PURPOSE In vivo the biotransformation of the imidazobenzodiazepine antagonist flumazenil leads to the formation of two metabolites, flumazenil acid and N-demethylated flumazenil. In the present study we investigated the role of carboxylesterases for the metabolism of flumazenil. METHODS We purified a non-specific carboxylesterase (EC 3.1.1.1) from human liver microsomes that catalyzes the hyd...
متن کاملInteraction of aromatic cytokinins with human liver microsomal cytochromes P450.
Aromatic cytokinins (ortho-topolin riboside, 6-benzylaminopurine riboside and 6-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzyla mino)purine riboside) were tested for their possible interaction with human liver microsomal cytochromes P450 by absorption difference spectroscopy. All three compounds were shown to bind to the CYP enzymes producing a high to low spin shift of the heme iron yielding a Soret absorption ba...
متن کاملInteractions of olomoucine II with human liver microsomal cytochromes P450.
Olomoucine II is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor and a potential antineoplastic agent because it can arrest animal cell cycles. This study examines its interactions with human liver microsomal cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes. Spectroscopic and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods were used to estimate the degree of olomoucine II-mediated inhibition of enzymatic activities of...
