ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 355:124214. [PMID: 38801883 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.124214] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2024] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Fenpropidin (FPD), a widely employed chiral fungicide, is frequently detected in diverse environments. In an in vitro rat liver microsomes cultivation (RLMs), the metabolism exhibited the order of R-FPD > S-FPD, with respective half-lives of 10.42 ± 0.11 and 12.06 ± 0.15 min, aligning with kinetic analysis results. CYP3A2 has been demonstrated to be the most significant oxidative enzyme through CYP450 enzyme inhibition experiments. Molecular dynamics simulations unveiled the enantioselective metabolic mechanism, demonstrating that R-FPD forms hydrogen bonds with the CYP3A2 protein, resulting in a higher binding affinity (-6.58 kcal mol-1) than S-FPD. Seven new metabolites were identified by Liquid chromatography time-of-flight high-resolution mass spectrometry, which were mainly generated through oxidation, reduction, hydroxylation, and N-dealkylation reactions. The toxicity of the major metabolites predicted by the TEST procedure was found to be stronger than the predicted toxicity of FPD. Moreover, the enantioselective fate of FPD was studied by examining its degradation in three soils with varying physical and chemical properties under aerobic, anaerobic, and sterile conditions. Enantioselective degradation of FPD occurred in soils without enantiomeric transformation, displaying a preference for R-FPD degradation. R-FPD is a low-risk stereoisomer both in the environment and in mammals. The research presented a systematic and comprehensive method for analyzing the metabolic and degradation system of FPD enantiomers. This approach aids in understanding the behavior of FPD in the environment and provides valuable insights into their potential risks to human health.

Genes Dis 2024; 11:101079. [PMID: 38560501 PMCID: PMC10980945 DOI: 10.1016/j.gendis.2023.101079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
CYP3A5 is a cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme that metabolizes drugs and contributes to drug resistance in cancer. However, it remains unclear whether CYP3A5 directly influences cancer progression. In this report, we demonstrate that CYP3A5 regulates glucose metabolism in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Multi-omics analysis showed that CYP3A5 knockdown results in a decrease in various glucose-related metabolites through its effect on glucose transport. A mechanistic study revealed that CYP3A5 enriches the glucose transporter GLUT1 at the plasma membrane by restricting the translation of TXNIP, a negative regulator of GLUT1. Notably, CYP3A5-generated reactive oxygen species were proved to be responsible for attenuating the AKT-4EBP1-TXNIP signaling pathway. CYP3A5 contributes to cell migration by maintaining high glucose uptake in pancreatic cancer. Taken together, our results, for the first time, reveal a role of CYP3A5 in glucose metabolism in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and identify a novel mechanism that is a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
Citrate, which is obtained from oxaloacetate and acetyl-CoA by citrate synthase in mitochondria, plays a key role in both normal and cancer cell metabolism. In this work, we investigated the effect of 10 mM extracellular citrate supplementation on HepG2 cells. Gene expression reprogramming was evaluated by whole transcriptome analysis using gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). The transcriptomic data were validated through analyzing changes in the mRNA levels of selected genes by qRT-PCR. Citrate-treated cells exhibited the statistically significant dysregulation of 3551 genes; 851 genes were upregulated and 822 genes were downregulated. GSEA identified 40 pathways affected by differentially expressed mRNAs. The most affected biological processes were related to lipid and RNA metabolism. Several genes of the cytochrome P450 family were upregulated in treated cells compared to controls, including the CYP3A5 gene, a tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that plays an important protective role in HCC metastasis. The citrate-induced dysregulation of cytochromes could both improve the effectiveness of chemotherapeutics used in combination and reduce the aggressiveness of tumors by diminishing cell migration and invasion.

Drug Metab Dispos 2024; 52:236-241. [PMID: 38123963 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.123.001564] [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: 10/03/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Rifampicin (RIF) is a mixed-mode perpetrator that produces pleiotropic effects on liver cytochrome P450 enzymes and drug transporters. To assess the complex drug-drug interaction liabilities of RIF in vivo, a known probe substrate, midazolam (MDZ), along with multiple endogenous biomarkers were simultaneously monitored in beagle dogs before and after a 7-day treatment period by RIF at 20 mg/kg per day. Confirmed by the reduced MDZ plasma exposure and elevated 4β-hydroxycholesterol (4β-HC, biomarker of CYP3A activities) level, CYP3A was significantly induced after repeated RIF doses, and such induction persisted for 3 days after cessation of the RIF administration. On the other hand, increased plasma levels of coproporphyrin (CP)-I and III [biomarkers of organic anion transporting polypeptides 1b (Oatp1b) activities] were observed after the first dose of RIF. Plasma CPs started to decline as RIF exposure decreased, and they returned to baseline 3 days after cessation of the RIF administration. The data suggested the acute (inhibitory) and chronic (inductive) effects of RIF on Oatp1b and CYP3A enzymes, respectively, and a 3-day washout period is deemed adequate to remove superimposed Oatp1b inhibition from CYP3A induction. In addition, apparent self-induction of RIF was observed as its terminal half-life was significantly altered after multiple doses. Overall, our investigation illustrated the need for appropriate timing of modulator dosing to differentiate between transporter inhibition and enzyme induction. As further indicated by the CP data, induction of Oatp1b activities was not likely after repeated RIF administration. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This investigation demonstrated the utility of endogenous biomarkers towards complex drug-drug interactions by rifampicin (RIF) and successfully determined the optimal timing to differentiate between transporter inhibition and enzyme induction. Based on experimental evidence, Oatp1b induction following repeated RIF administration was unlikely, and apparent self-induction of RIF elimination was observed.

Abstract
In the early stages of drug discovery, adequate evaluation of the potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) of drug candidates is important. Several CYP3A activators are known to lead to underestimation of DDIs. These compounds affect midazolam 1'-hydroxylation but not midazolam 4-hydroxylation.We used both metabolic reactions of midazolam to evaluate the activation and inhibition of CYP3A activators simultaneously. For our CYP inhibition assay using cocktail probe substrates, simultaneous liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry monitoring of 1'-hydroxymidazolam and 4-hydroxymidazolam for CYP3A was established in addition to monitoring of 4-hydroxydiclofenac and 1'-hydroxybufuralol for CYP2C9 and CYP2D6.The results of our cocktail inhibition assay were well correlated with those of a single inhibition assay, as were the estimated inhibition parameters for typical CYP3A inhibitors. In our assay, a proprietary compound that activated midazolam 1'-hydroxylation and tended to inhibit 4-hydroxylation was evaluated along with known CYP3A activators. All compounds were well characterised by comparison of the results of midazolam 1'- and 4-hydroxylation.In conclusion, our CYP cocktail inhibition assay can detect CYP3A activation and assess the direct and time-dependent inhibition potentials for CYP3A, CYP2C9, and CYP2D6. This method is expected to be very efficient in the early stages of drug discovery.

Abstract
Drug metabolism is a major determinant of drug concentrations in the body. Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) caused by the co-administration of multiple drugs can lead to alteration in the exposure of the victim drug, raising safety or effectiveness concerns. Assessment of the DDI potential starts with in vitro experiments to determine kinetic parameters and identify risks associated with the use of comedication that can inform future clinical studies. The diverse range of experimental models and techniques has significantly contributed to the examination of potential DDIs. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are responsible for the biotransformation of many drugs on the market, making them frequently implicated in drug metabolism and DDIs. Consequently, there has been a growing focus on the assessment of DDI risk for CYPs. This review article provides mechanistic insights underlying CYP inhibition/induction and an overview of the in vitro assessment of CYP-mediated DDIs.

Abstract
Cytochromes P450 (CYP450) are hemoproteins generally involved in the detoxification of the body of xenobiotic molecules. They participate in the metabolism of many drugs and genetic polymorphisms in humans have been found to impact drug responses and metabolic functions. In this study, we investigate the genetic diversity of CYP450 genes. We found that two clusters, CYP3A and CYP4F, are notably differentiated across human populations with evidence for selective pressures acting on both clusters: we found signals of recent positive selection in CYP3A and CYP4F genes and signals of balancing selection in CYP4F genes. Furthermore, an extensive amount of unusual linkage disequilibrium is detected in this latter cluster, indicating co-evolution signatures among CYP4F genes. Several of the selective signals uncovered co-localize with expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL), which could suggest epistasis acting on co-regulation in these gene families. In particular, we detected a potential co-regulation event between CYP3A5 and CYP3A43, a gene whose function remains poorly characterized. We further identified a causal relationship between CYP3A5 expression and reticulocyte count through Mendelian randomization analyses, potentially involving a regulatory region displaying a selective signal specific to African populations. Our findings linking natural selection and gene expression in CYP3A and CYP4F subfamilies are of importance in understanding population differences in metabolism of nutrients and drugs.

Abstract
This research aimed at obtaining new derivatives of pregn-1,4-diene-3,20-dione (Δ1-progesterone) (2) through microbiological transformation. For the role of catalysts, we used six strains of entomopathogenic filamentous fungi (Beauveria bassiana KCh J1.5, Beauveria caledonica KCh J3.3, Isaria fumosorosea KCh J2, Isaria farinosa KCh KW1.1, Isaria tenuipes MU35, and Metarhizium robertsii MU4). The substrate (2) was obtained by carrying out an enzymatic 1,2-dehydrogenation on an increased scale (3.5 g/L) using a recombinant cholest-4-en-3-one Δ1-dehydrogenase (AcmB) from Sterolibacterium denitrificans. All selected strains were characterized by the high biotransformation capacity for the used substrate. As a result of the biotransformation, six steroid derivatives were obtained: 11α-hydroxypregn-1,4-diene-3,20-dione (3), 6β,11α-dihydroxypregn-1,4-diene-3,20-dione (4), 6β-hydroxypregn-1,4-diene-3,11,20-trione (5), 6β,17α-dihydroxypregn-1,4-diene-3,20-dione (6), 6β,17β-dihydroxyandrost-1,4-diene-3-one (7), and 12β,17α-dihydroxypregn-1,4-diene-3,20-dione (8). The results show evident variability of the biotransformation process between strains of the tested biocatalysts from different species described as entomopathogenic filamentous fungi. The obtained products were tested in silico using cheminformatics tools for their pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, proving their potentially high biological activities. This study showed that the obtained compounds may have applications as effective inhibitors of testosterone 17β-dehydrogenase. Most of the obtained products should, also with a high probability, find potential uses as androgen antagonists, a prostate as well as menopausal disorders treatment. They should also demonstrate immunosuppressive, erythropoiesis-stimulating, and anti-inflammatory properties.

Abstract
The cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs), a group of heme-containing enzymes, catalyze oxidative metabolism of a wide range of drugs and xenobiotics, as well as different endogenous molecules. Strong inhibition of human CYPs is the most common cause of clinically associated pharmacokinetic drug-drug/herb-drug interactions (DDIs/HDIs), which may result in serious adverse drug reactions, even toxicity. Accurate and rapid assessing of the inhibition potentials on CYP activities for therapeutic agents is crucial for the prediction of clinically relevant DDIs/HDIs. Over the past few decades, significant efforts have been invested into developing optical substrates for the human CYPs, generating a variety of powerful tools for high-throughput assays to detect CYP activities in biologic specimens and for screening of CYP inhibitors. This minireview focuses on recent advances in optical substrates developments for human CYPs, as well as their applications in screening CYP inhibitors and DDIs/HDIs studies. The examples for rational design and optimization of highly specific optical substrates for the target CYP enzyme, as well as applications in investigating CYP-mediated DDIs, are illustrated. Finally, the challenges and future perspectives in this field are proposed. Collectively, this review summarizes the reported optical-based biochemical assays for highly efficient CYP activities detection, which strongly facilitated the discovery of CYP inhibitors and the investigations on CYP-mediated DDIs. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Optical substrates for cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) have emerged as powerful tools for the construction of high-throughput assays for screening of CYP inhibitors. This mini-review covers the advances and challenges in the development of highly specific optical substrates for sensing human CYP isoenzymes, as well as their applications in constructing fluorescence-based high-throughput assays for investigating CYP-mediated drug-drug interactions.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:1224. [PMID: 37765032 PMCID: PMC10537618 DOI: 10.3390/ph16091224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/25/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Most of the currently available drugs are derived from natural sources, but they are used only after extensive chemical modifications to improve their safety and efficacy. Natural products are used in health supplements and cosmetic preparations and have been used as auxiliary drugs or alternative medicines. When used in combination with conventional drugs, these herbal products are known to alter their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, reducing their therapeutic effects. Moreover, herb-drug interactions (HDIs) may have serious side effects, which is one of the major concerns in health practice. It is postulated that HDIs affect the pathways regulating cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs). Betanin, the chief pigment of red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.), has various types of pharmacological activity, such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer effects. However, the potential risk of HDIs for betanin has not yet been studied. Thus, we aimed to predict more specific HDIs by evaluating the effects of betanin on CYPs (CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4), the major phase I metabolic enzymes, using fluorescence-/luminescence-based assays. Our results showed that betanin inhibited CYP3A4 activity in a dose-dependent manner (IC50 = 20.97 µΜ). Moreover, betanin acted as a competitive inhibitor of CYP3A4, as confirmed by evaluating Lineweaver-Burk plots (Ki value = 19.48 µΜ). However, no significant inhibitory effects were observed on other CYPs. Furthermore, betanin had no significant effect on CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP2C9 induction in HepG2 cells. In conclusion, betanin acted as a competitive inhibitor of CYP3A4, and thus it should be used cautiously with other drugs that require metabolic enzymes as substrates. Additional in vivo studies and clinical trials are needed to further elucidate the HDIs of betanin.

ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2023; 174:107896. [PMID: 36966637 DOI: 10.1016/j.envint.2023.107896] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Benzotriazole ultraviolet stabilizers (BUVSs) are emerging pollutants that are widely detected in aquatic ecosystems. While structure-dependent effects of BUVSs are reported, the relationship between biotransformation and toxicity outcomes remains unclear. In this study, zebrafish embryos were exposed to two common BUVSs (UV-234 and UV-326) at 1, 10, and 100 µg/L for up to 7 days. Comparison of their uptake and biotransformation revealed that the bioaccumulation capacity of UV-234 was higher than that of UV-326, while UV-326 was more extensively biotransformed with additional conjugation reactions. However, UV-326 showed low metabolism due to inhibited phase II enzymes, which may result in the comparable internal concentrations of both BUVSs in larval zebrafish. Both BUVSs induced oxidative stress while decreased MDA, suggesting the disturbance of lipid metabolism. The subsequent metabolomic profiling revealed that UV-234 and UV-326 exerted different effects on arachidonic acid, lipid, and energy metabolism. However, both BUVSs negatively impacted the cyclic guanosine monophosphate / protein kinase G pathway. This converged metabolic change resulted in comparable toxicity of UV-234 and UV-326, which was confirmed by the induction of downstream apoptosis, neuroinflammation, and abnormal locomotion behavior. These data have important implications for understanding the metabolism, disposition, and toxicology of BUVSs in aquatic organisms.

Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a chemical class of highly stable, fluorinated compounds popular for use in a variety of consumer products. PFAS environmental persistence in drinking water contributes to acute exposure in humans and subsequent bioaccumulation of the compounds in the liver and lung tissue. Prenatal PFAS exposure has been associated with lowered birth weight, premature birth, and developmental defects including cranio-facial abnormalities. The cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP3A7 is responsible for facilitating a variety of reactions essential for proper fetal development in humans. In addition to drug metabolism, CYP3A7 is responsible for metabolizing endogenous ligands in the developing human liver, including the steroid precursor dehydroepiandrosterone 3-sulfate (DHEA-S), essential for estriol synthesis during pregnancy, along with the morphogen all-trans-retinoic acid (atRA). Interference with estriol synthesis during pregnancy, as well as atRA clearance, is known to result in similar effects associated with prenatal PFAS exposure including lowered birth weight, premature birth, and developmental defects. We hypothesized that PFAS compounds bind to the CYP3A7 enzyme resulting in its inhibition. We implemented a series of binding studies using spectral characterization of six PFAS compounds (PFOA, PFOS, GenX, PFNA, PFNS, and PFHxS), and evaluated their interactions with recombinant CYP3A7. In addition, we screened PFAS for their ability to inhibit CYP3A7 oxidative activity using dibenzylfluorescein, a fluorescent probe, and DHEA-S, an endogenous substrate of CYP3A7. Our data demonstrate that of the six PFAS tested, PFOA, PFOS, PFNA, and PFHxS bind to and inhibit CYP3A7.

Specific Gene Duplication and Loss of Cytochrome P450 in Families 1-3 in Carnivora (Mammalia, Laurasiatheria). Animals (Basel) 2022; 12:ani12202821.

Abstract
Simple Summary In this study we investigated the specific duplication and loss events of cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes in families 1-3 in Carnivora. These genes have been recognized as essential detoxification enzymes, and, using genomic data, we demonstrated a synteny analysis of the CYP coding cluster and a phylogenetic analysis of these genes. We discovered the CYP2Cs and CYP3As expansion in omnivorous species such as the badger, the brown bear, the black bear, and the dog. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis revealed the evolution of CYP2Cs and 3As in Carnivora. These findings are essential for the appropriate estimation of pharmacokinetics or toxicokinetic in wild carnivorans. Abstract Cytochrome P450s are among the most important xenobiotic metabolism enzymes that catalyze the metabolism of a wide range of chemicals. Through duplication and loss events, CYPs have created their original feature of detoxification in each mammal. We performed a comprehensive genomic analysis to reveal the evolutionary features of the main xenobiotic metabolizing family: the CYP1-3 families in Carnivora. We found specific gene expansion of CYP2Cs and CYP3As in omnivorous animals, such as the brown bear, the black bear, the dog, and the badger, revealing their daily phytochemical intake as providing the causes of their evolutionary adaptation. Further phylogenetic analysis of CYP2Cs revealed Carnivora CYP2Cs were divided into CYP2C21, 2C41, and 2C23 orthologs. Additionally, CYP3As phylogeny also revealed the 3As’ evolution was completely different to that of the Caniformia and Feliformia taxa. These studies provide us with fundamental genetic and evolutionary information on CYPs in Carnivora, which is essential for the appropriate interpretation and extrapolation of pharmacokinetics or toxicokinetic data from experimental mammals to wild Carnivora.

Impact of the Genotype and Phenotype of CYP3A and P-gp on the Apixaban and Rivaroxaban Exposure in a Real-World Setting. J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12040526. [PMID: 35455642 PMCID: PMC9028714 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12040526] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2022] [Revised: 03/17/2022] [Accepted: 03/18/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Apixaban and rivaroxaban are the two most prescribed direct factor Xa inhibitors. With the increased use of DOACs in real-world settings, safety and efficacy concerns have emerged, particularly regarding their concomitant use with other drugs. Increasing evidence highlights drug−drug interactions with CYP3A/P-gp modulators leading to adverse events. However, current recommendations for dose adjustment do not consider CYP3A/P-gp genotype and phenotype. We aimed to determine their impact on apixaban and rivaroxaban blood exposure. Three-hundred hospitalized patients were included. CYP3A and P-gp phenotypic activities were assessed by the metabolic ratio of midazolam and AUC0−6h of fexofenadine, respectively. Relevant CYP3A and ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms were also tested. Capillary blood samples collected at four time-points after apixaban or rivaroxaban administration allowed the calculation of pharmacokinetic parameters. According to the developed multivariable linear regression models, P-gp activity (p < 0.001) and creatinine clearance (CrCl) (p = 0.01) significantly affected apixaban AUC0−6h. P-gp activity (p < 0.001) also significantly impacted rivaroxaban AUC0−6h. The phenotypic switch (from normal to poor metabolizer) of P-gp led to an increase of apixaban and rivaroxaban AUC0−6h by 16% and 25%, respectively, equivalent to a decrease of 38 mL/min in CrCl according to the apixaban model. CYP3A phenotype and tested SNPs of CYP3A/P-gp had no significant impact. In conclusion, P-gp phenotypic activity, rather than known CYP3A/P-gp polymorphisms, could be relevant for dose adjustment.

Abstract
The human cytochrome P450 (CYP) CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 enzymes metabolize more than one-half of marketed drugs. They share high structural and substrate similarity and are often studied together as CYP3A4/5. However, CYP3A5 preferentially metabolizes several clinically prescribed drugs, such as tacrolimus. Genetic polymorphism in CYP3A5 makes race-based dosing adjustment of tacrolimus necessary to minimize acute rejection after organ transplantation. Moreover, the differential tissue distribution and expression levels of CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 can aggravate toxicity during treatment. Therefore, selective inhibitors of CYP3A5 are needed to distinguish the role of CYP3A5 from that of CYP3A4 and serve as starting points for potential therapeutic development. To this end, we report the crystal structure of CYP3A5 in complex with a previously reported selective inhibitor, clobetasol propionate (CBZ). This is the first CYP3A5 structure with a type I inhibitor, which along with the previously reported substrate-free and type II inhibitor-bound structures, constitute the main CYP3A5 structural modalities. Supported by structure-guided mutagenesis analyses, the CYP3A5-CBZ structure showed that a unique conformation of the F-F' loop in CYP3A5 enables selective binding of CBZ to CYP3A5. Several polar interactions, including hydrogen bonds, stabilize the position of CBZ to interact with this unique F-F' loop conformation. In addition, functional and biophysical assays using CBZ analogs highlight the importance of heme-adjacent moieties for selective CYP3A5 inhibition. Our findings can be used to guide further development of more potent and selective CYP3A5 inhibitors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Khat, a natural amphetamine-like psychostimulant plant, are widely consumed globally. Concurrent intake of khat and xenobiotics may lead to herb-drug interactions and adverse drug reactions (ADRs). This study is a continuation of our previous study, targeted to evaluate the in vitro inhibitory effects of khat ethanol extract (KEE) on human cytochrome (CYP) 1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP2E1, CYP2J2, and CYP3A5, major human drug metabolizing enzymes. METHODS In vitro fluorescence enzyme assays were employed to assess CYPs inhibition with the presence and absence of various KEE concentrations. RESULTS KEE reversibly inhibited CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP2E1, CYP2J2 and CYP3A5 but not CYP1A2 with IC50 values of 25.5, 99, 4.5, 21, 27, 17, and 10 μg/mL respectively. No irreversible inhibition of KEE on all the eight CYPs were identified. The Ki values of CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP2E1, CYP2J2 and CYP3A5 were 20.9, 85, 4.8, 18.3, 59.3, 3, and 21.7 μg/mL, respectively. KEE inhibited CYP2B6 via competitive or mixed inhibition; CYP2E1 via un-competitive or mixed inhibition; while CYP2A6, CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP2J2 and CYP3A5 via non-competitive or mixed inhibition. CONCLUSIONS Caution should be taken by khat users who are on medications metabolized by CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP2E1, CYP2J2, and CYP3A5.

Abstract
Ticagrelor is a first-line clinical drug for the treatment of acute coronary syndrome, but its oral bioavailability is relatively low. Flavonoids (polyphenol compounds commonly found in plant foods) seriously affect human metabolism and health. This study compared the effects of quercetin, luteolin and catechin on the pharmacokinetic parameters of ticagrelor and found that quercetin can significantly increase the Cmax and area under the curve from time zero to 36 h (AUC0-36 ) of ticagrelor, that is, quercetin can enhance the bioavailability of ticagrelor, but luteolin and catechin cannot. The difference between the ticagrelor group and the combination of quercetin and ticagrelor was analyzed through untargeted metabolomics methods and multivariate data analysis, which identified changes in the levels of seven metabolites (deoxycholic acid, taurocholic acid, glycocholic acid, glycoursodeoxycholic acid, tryptophan, phenylalanine and kynurenine). Based on the changes of these metabolites, we found that the metabolic pathways of phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan and the biosynthetic pathway of bile acids were changed. A metabolomics study revealed that quercetin improves the oral bioavailability of ticagrelor and that this might rely on changing the metabolic pathways of phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan and the biosynthetic pathway of bile acids. The research results at the metabolic level provide us with a strong basis and direction for further exploring the mechanism underlying quercetin's ability to enhance the bioavailability of ticagrelor, and this may be useful for finding new agents that enhance the bioavailability.

Abstract
Vincristine-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (VIPN) is a very common side effect of vincristine chemotherapy among pediatric patients with cancer. Neuropathy may be sensory, motor and/or autonomic, with consequent reduction, delay or discontinuation of vincristine-chemotherapy, but also pain, disability, reduced quality of life of patients and an increase in medical costs. Vincristine acts out its antineoplastic function by altering the normal assembly and disassembly of microtubules, with their consequent mitosis block and death. Vincristine leads to VIPN through a complex mechanism of damage, which occurs not only on the microtubules, but also on the endothelium and the mitochondria of nerve cells. Furthermore, both patient-related risk factors (age, race, ethnicity and genetic polymorphisms) and treatment-related risk factors (dose, time of infusion and drug–drug interactions) are involved in the pathogenesis of VIPN. There is a lack of consensus about the prophylaxis and treatment of VIPN among pediatric oncologic patients, despite several molecules (such as gabapentin, pyridoxine and pyridostigmine, glutamic acid and glutamine) having been already investigated in clinical trials. This review describes the molecular mechanisms of VIPN and analyzes the risk factors and the principal drugs adopted for the prophylaxis and treatment of VIPN in pediatric patients with cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Infectious disease emergencies like the 2013-2016 Ebola epidemic and the 2009 influenza and current SARS-CoV-2 pandemics illustrate that vaccines are now given to diverse populations with preexisting pathologies requiring pharmacological management. Many natural biomolecules (steroid hormones, fatty acids, vitamins) and ~60% of prescribed medications are processed by hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4. The objective of this work was to determine the impact of infection and vaccines on drug metabolism. METHODS The impact of an adenovirus-based vaccine expressing Ebola glycoprotein (AdEBO) and H1N1 and H3N2 influenza viruses on hepatic CYP 3A4 and associated nuclear receptors was evaluated in human hepatocytes (HC-04 cells) and in mice. RESULTS CYP3A activity was suppressed by 55% in mice 24Â h after administration of mouse-adapted H1N1, while Ë‚10% activity remained in HC-04 cells after infection with H1N1 and H3N2 due to global suppression of cellular translation capacity, indicated by reduction (70%, H1N1, 56%, H3N2) of phosphorylated eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4e (eIF4E). AdEBO suppressed CYP3A activity in vivo (44%) and in vitro (26%) 24Â hours after infection. CONCLUSION As the clinical evaluation of vaccines for SARS-CoV-2 and other global pathogens rise, studies to evaluate the impact of new vaccines and emerging pathogens on CYP3A4 and other metabolic enzymes are warranted to avoid therapeutic failures that could further compromise the public health during infectious disease emergencies.

Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2021; 239:108878.

Abstract
Glyphosate (Gly) is an active ingredient of herbicide, its underlying toxicity on fish is still unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate chronic toxicity of Gly on tilapia via determining antioxidative status, metabolism, inflammation and immune response. The fish were exposed to different concentrations of Gly (0, 0.2, 0.8, 4 and 16 mg/L) for 80 days. The blood, liver, gills and spleen were collected to assay biochemical parameters and genes expression after 80 days of exposure. The results showed that treatments with higher Gly (4 and/16 mg/L) significantly increased the levels of TC, TG, AST, ALT, LDL-C and MDA, and apparently decreased the levels of SOD, GSH, CAT, HDL-C, HK, G3PDH, FBPase and G6PD in serum, liver and/or gills. The gene expression data showed that the treatments with Gly adversely affected Nrf2 pathway in liver, gills and spleen, as shown by significant changes of nrf2, keap1, ho-1, nqo1 and gsta mRNA levels. Meanwhile, inflammatory response was activated via enhancing the mRNA levels of nf-κb2, rel, rela tnf-α, and il-1β, and immunotoxicity was caused through downregulating the genes expression of c-lzm, hep, igm, hsp70 and c3 in liver, gills and/or spleen of tilapia after Gly exposure. Moreover, the mRNA levels of cyp1a and cyp3a were upregulated in 16 or 0.2 mg/kg Gly group in liver. Overall results suggested chronic Gly exposure reduced antioxidative ability, disturbed liver metabolism, promoted inflammation and suppressed immunity. Interestingly, the Nrf2 and NF-κB signaling pathways played key roles in Gly chronic toxicity.

Beverage-Drug Interaction: Effects of Green Tea Beverage Consumption on Atorvastatin Metabolism and Membrane Transporters in the Small Intestine and Liver of Rats. MEMBRANES 2020; 10:membranes10090233.

Abstract
Green tea (GT) beverages are popular worldwide and may prevent the development of many chronic diseases including cardiovascular disease and cancer. To investigate whether the consumption of a GT beverage causes drug interactions, the effects of GT beverage consumption on atorvastatin metabolism and membrane transporters were evaluated. Male rats were fed a chow diet with tap water or the GT beverage for 3 weeks. Then, the rats were given a single oral dose (10 mg/kg body weight (BW)) of atorvastatin (ATV), and blood was collected at various time points within 6 h. The results show that GT consumption increased the plasma concentrations (AUC0–6h) of ATV (+85%) and 2-OH ATV (+93.3%). GT also increased the 2-OH ATV (+40.9%) and 4-OH ATV (+131.6%) contents in the liver. Decreased cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A enzyme activity, with no change in P-glycoprotein expression in the intestine, was observed in rats treated with GT. Additionally, GT increased hepatic CYP3A-mediated ATV metabolism and decreased organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) 2 membrane protein expression. There was no significant difference in the membrane protein expression of OATP2B1 and P-glycoprotein in the intestine and liver after the GT treatment. The results show that GT consumption may lower hepatic OATP2 and, thus, limit hepatic drug uptake and increase plasma exposure to ATV and 2-OH ATV.

Abstract
The human cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 metabolize most drugs and have high similarities in their structure and substrate preference. Whereas CYP3A4 is predominantly expressed in the liver, CYP3A5 is upregulated in cancer, contributing to drug resistance. Selective inhibitors of CYP3A5 are, therefore, critical to validating it as a therapeutic target. Here we report clobetasol propionate (clobetasol) as a potent and selective CYP3A5 inhibitor identified by high-throughput screening using enzymatic and cell-based assays. Molecular dynamics simulations suggest a close proximity of clobetasol to the heme in CYP3A5 but not in CYP3A4. UV-visible spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonance analyses confirmed the formation of an inhibitory type I heme-clobetasol complex in CYP3A5 but not in CYP3A4, thus explaining the CYP3A5 selectivity of clobetasol. Our results provide a structural basis for selective CYP3A5 inhibition, along with mechanistic insights, and highlight clobetasol as an important chemical tool for target validation.
