Drug-induced enzyme activity inhibition and CYP3A4 genetic polymorphism significantly shape the metabolic characteristics of furmonertinib. Toxicology 2024; 507:153903. [PMID: 39098371 DOI: 10.1016/j.tox.2024.153903] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/02/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to elucidate the impact of variations in liver enzyme activity, particularly CYP3A4, on the metabolism of furmonertinib. An in vitro enzyme incubation system was established for furmonertinib using liver microsomes and recombinant CYP3A4 baculosomes, with analytes detected by LC-MS/MS. The pharmacokinetic characteristics of furmonertinib were studied in vivo using Sprague-Dawley rats. It was found that telmisartan significantly inhibited the metabolism of furmonertinib, as demonstrated by a significant increase in the AUC of furmonertinib when co-administered with telmisartan, compared to the furmonertinib-alone group. Mechanistically, it was noncompetitive in rat liver microsomes, while it was mixed competitive and noncompetitive in human liver microsomes and CYP3A4. Considering the genetic polymorphism of CYP3A4, the study further investigated its effect on the kinetics of furmonertinib. The results showed that compared to CYP3A4.1, CYP3A4.29 had significantly increased activity in catalyzing furmonertinib, whereas CYP3A4.7, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 18, 23, 33, and 34 showed markedly decreased activity. The inhibitory activity of telmisartan varied in CYP3A4.1 and CYP3A4.18, with IC50 values of 8.56 ± 0.90 μM and 27.48 ± 3.52 μM, respectively. The key loci affecting the inhibitory effect were identified as ARG105, ILE301, ALA370, and LEU373. Collectively, these data would provide a reference for the quantitative application of furmonertinib.

Pharmacol Res 2024; 205:107247. [PMID: 38834164 DOI: 10.1016/j.phrs.2024.107247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2024] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/06/2024]
Abstract
About 80 % of brain disorders have a genetic basis. The pathogenesis of most neurodegenerative diseases is associated with a myriad of genetic defects, epigenetic alterations (DNA methylation, histone/chromatin remodeling, miRNA dysregulation), and environmental factors. The emergence of new sequencing technologies and tools to study the epigenome has led to identifying predictive biomarkers for earlier diagnosis, opening up the possibility of prophylactical interventions. As a result, advances in pharmacogenetics and pharmacoepigenomics now allow for personalized treatments based on the profile of each patient and the specific genetic and epigenetic mechanisms involved. This Review highlights the complexity of neurodegenerative diseases and the variability in patient responses to pharmacotherapy, emphasizing the influence of genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs used to treat those conditions. We specifically discuss the potential modulatory effect of several genetic polymorphisms associated with an increased risk of developing different neurodegenerative diseases. We explore genetic and genomic technologies and the potential of analyzing individual-specific drug metabolism to predict and influence drug response and associated clinical outcomes. We also provide insights into the mechanism of action of the drugs under investigation and their potential impact on disease-modifying pathways. Finally, the Review underscores the great potential of this field to enhance the effectiveness and safety of drug treatments through personalized medicine.

Abstract
This study assessed the effect of tubeimoside I on CYP1A2, 2A6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, and 3A4 to reveal the potential of tubeimoside I to induce drug-drug interaction.The evaluation of cytochromes P450 enzyme (CYP) activity was performed in pooled human liver microsomes with probing substrates of CYP1A2, 2A6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, and 3A4. Typical inhibitors were employed as positive controls and the effect of 0, 2.5, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 μM tubeimoside I was investigated.The activity of CYP2D6, 2E1, and 3A4 was significantly inhibited by tubeimoside I with the IC50 values of 10.34, 11.58, and 9.74 μM, respectively. The inhibition of CYP2D6 and 2E1 was competitive with the Ki value of 5.66 and 5.29 μM, respectively. While the inhibition of CYP3A4 was non-competitive with the Ki value of 4.87 μM. Moreover, the inhibition of CYP3A4 was time-dependent with the KI and Kinact values of 0.635 μM-1 and 0.0373 min-1, respectively.Tubeimoside I served as a competitive inhibitor of CYP2D6 and 2E1 exerting weak inhibition and a non-competitive inhibitor of CYP3A4 exerting moderate inhibition.

Ye F, Li X, Ni J, Xu X, Luo J, Zhong Y, Wang Y, Wang S, Zhang Y, Hu G, Qian J. Gene Polymorphisms and Drug-Drug Interactions Determine the Metabolic Profile of Blonanserin. J Pharmacol Exp Ther 2024; 388:190-200. [PMID: 37863485 DOI: 10.1124/jpet.123.001767] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/22/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) gene polymorphism and drug interaction on the metabolism of blonanserin. Human recombinant CYP3A4 was prepared using the Bac-to-Bac baculovirus expression system. A microsomal enzyme reaction system was established, and drug-drug interactions were evaluated using Sprague-Dawley rats. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used to detect the concentrations of blonanserin and its metabolite. Compared with wild type CYP34A, the relative clearance of blonanserin by CYP3A4.29 significantly increased to 251.3%, while it decreased notably with CYP3A4.4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, 28, 31, 33, and 34, ranging from 6.09% to 63.34%. Among 153 tested drugs, nimodipine, felodipine, and amlodipine were found to potently inhibit the metabolism of blonanserin. Moreover, the inhibitory potency of nimodipine, felodipine, and amlodipine varied with different CYP3A4 variants. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration and enzymatic kinetics assay demonstrated that the metabolism of blonanserin was noncompetitively inhibited by nimodipine in rat liver microsomes and was inhibited in a mixed manner by felodipine and amlodipine in both rat liver microsomes and human liver microsomes. When nimodipine and felodipine were coadministered with blonanserin, the area under the blood concentration-time curve (AUC)(0-t), AUC(0-∞), and C max of blonanserin increased. When amlodipine and blonanserin were combined, the C max of blonanserin C increased remarkably. The vast majority of CYP3A4 variants have a low ability to catalyze blonanserin. With combined administration of nimodipine, felodipine, and amlodipine, the elimination of blonanserin was inhibited. This study provides the basis for individualized clinical use of blonanserin. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The enzyme kinetics of novel CYP3A4 enzymes for metabolizing blonanserin were investigated. Clearance of blonanserin by CYP3A4.4, 5, 7-10, 12-14, 16-18, 23-24, 28, 31, 33, and 34 decreased notably, but increased with CYP3A4.29. Additionally, we established a drug interaction spectrum for blonanserin, in which nimodipine, felodipine, and amlodipine kinetics exhibited mixed inhibition. Moreover, their inhibitory potencies decreased with CYP3A4.4 and 5 compared to CYP3A4.1. This study provides essential data for personalized clinical use of blonanserin.

Wu K, Qin J, Liu M, Yan X, Guo C. Bioinformatics approach and experimental validation reveal the hepatoprotective effect of pachyman against acetaminophen-associated liver injury. Aging (Albany NY) 2023; 15:8800-8811.

Abstract
Pachyman, known as Poria cocos polysaccharides, refers to the bioactive compounds isolated from Poria cocos. Pachyman is thought to exert cytoprotective action. However, the detailed mechanisms of pachyman action for hepatoprotection remain unknown. In this study, we aimed to assess the therapeutic actions, molecular mechanisms, and key target proteins of pachyman in the treatment of liver injury through network pharmacology and molecular docking assays. Furthermore, these bioinformatic findings were validated by an acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury in vivo. Primarily using bioinformatic analysis, we screened and characterized 12 genes that act as potential therapeutic targets of pachyman against APAP-induced liver injury, in which all core targets were obtained. By using enrichment analysis, these core target genes of pachyman were characterized to reveal the pharmacological functions and molecular mechanisms of anti-liver injury induced by APAP. A molecular docking simulation was further performed to certain anti-liver injury target proteins of pachyman, including cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme (CYP3A4) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2). In animal experiments, pachyman exerted potent hepatoprotective activities in prenatal APAP-exposed offspring livers, characterized by activated hepatocellular CYP3A4 and NOS2 expressions. These current findings have thus indicated that pachyman exerts hepatoprotective effects and may be the promising nutraceuticals for the treatment of APAP-induced liver injury.
