Abstract
We present a case of a case of a man in his 70s on multiple medications (including treatment of ischemic heart disease and diabetes who developed significant rhabdomyolysis, complicated by acute kidney injury (AKI) and encephalopathy, while using a compounded medication for weight loss. The patient was admitted to the intensive care unit and progressed favourably after haemodialysis and supportive care. Information regarding the ingestion of weight-loss drugs was unknown at the time of admission and was only discovered after resolution of encephalopathy, raising the possibility of toxin-associated rhabdomyolysis. This case emphasises the need for a thorough clinical history and scrutiny of the safety of weight-loss prescriptions, including preparations that comprise a combination of drugs and supplements that may adversely interact with chronic medications, especially in polymedicated patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There is a large body of preclinical data implicating that grapefruit juice (GJ) inhibits many CYP 450 isoforms. The potential of GJ-to-drug is of high relevance to clinical psychiatry, because a wide range of psychotropic medicines undergo CYP 450 metabolism and P-gp transport. AREAS COVERED Relevant data were identified by searching the electronic databases up to February 2024. This work constitutes a summary of preclinical and clinical data on GJ impact on CYP 450 metabolism, P-glycoprotein, and organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATPs), with focus on studies that assessed GJ-to-psychotropic drug interactions. Additionally, an unpublished case series of nine patients is provided. EXPERT OPINION The impact of GJ on CYP 3A4 appears to be the critical mechanism for the majority of GJ-to-psychopharmacotherapy interactions described in human studies or case reports. However, there are studies and cases of patients clearly showing that this is not the only route explaining the GJ effect, and at times, this particular is of no relevance and that other CYP 450 isoforms as well as drug transporting proteins might be involved. The risk of GJ-to-psychotropic drugs needs to be further evaluated in a 'real-world' setting and apply not only measures of pharmacokinetics but also treatment effectiveness and safety.

Abstract
Consumption of plant-derived natural products and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs is increasing on a global scale, and studies of phytochemical-OTC drug interactions are becoming more significant. The intake of dietary plants and herbs rich in phytochemicals may affect drug-metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) and transporters. These effects may lead to alterations in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of OTC drugs when concomitantly administered. Some phytochemical-drug interactions benefit patients through enhanced efficacy, but many interactions cause adverse effects. This review discusses possible mechanisms of phytochemical-OTC drug interactions mediated by phase I and II DMEs and phase III transporters. In addition, current information is summarized for interactions between phytochemicals derived from fruits, vegetables, and herbs and OTC drugs, and counseling is provided on appropriate and safe use of OTC drugs.

Abstract
Herbs, food and dietary supplements (HFDS), can interact significantly with anticancer drug treatments via cytochrome p450 isoforms (CYP) CYP3A4, CYP2D6, CYP1A2, and CYP2C8. The objective of this review was to assess the influence of HFDS compounds on these cytochromes. Interactions with CYP activities were searched for 189 herbs and food products, 72 dietary supplements in Web of Knowledge® databases. Analyses were made from 140 of 3,125 clinical trials and 236 of 3,374 in vitro, animal model studies or case reports. 18 trials were found to report direct interactions between 9 HFDS with 8 anticancer drugs. 21 HFDS were found to interact with CYP3A4, a major metabolic pathway for many anticancer drugs. All 261 HFDS were classified for their interaction with the main cytochromes P450 involved in the metabolism of anticancer drugs. We provided an easy-to-use colour-coded table to easily match potential interactions between 261 HFDS and 117 anticancer drugs.

[PMID: 33733472 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.14822] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2020] [Revised: 02/22/2021] [Accepted: 03/05/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS Herbal products, spices and/or fruits are perceived as inherently healthy; for instance, St. John's wort (SJW) is marketed as a natural antidepressant and patients often self-administer it concomitantly with oncology medications. However, food constituents/herbs can interfere with drug pharmacokinetics, with risk of altering pharmacodynamics and efficacy. The objective of this work was to develop a strategy to prioritize herb- or food constituent-drug interactions (FC-DIs) to better assess oncology drug clinical risk. METHODS Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models were developed by integrating in vitro parameters with the clinical pharmacokinetics of food constituents in grapefruit juice (bergamottin), turmeric (curcumin) or SJW (hyperforin). Perpetrator files were linked to verified victim PBPK models through appropriate interaction mechanisms (cytochrome P450 3A, breast cancer resistance protein, P-glycoprotein) and applied in prospective PBPK simulations to inform the likelihood and magnitude of changes in exposure to osimertinib, olaparib or acalabrutinib. RESULTS Reported FC-DIs with oncology drugs were well recovered, with absolute average fold error values of 1.10 (bergamottin), 1.05 (curcumin) and 1.01 (hyperforin). Prospective simulations with grapefruit juice and turmeric showed clinically minor to insignificant changes in exposure (<1.50-fold) to acalabrutinib, osimertinib and olaparib, but predicted 1.57-fold FC-DI risk between acalabrutinib and curcumin. Moderate DDI risk was expected when acalabrutinib, osimertinib or olaparib were dosed with SJW. CONCLUSIONS A model-informed decision tree based on mechanistic understanding of transporter and/or enzyme-mediated FC-DI is proposed based on bergamottin, curcumin and hyperforin FC-DI clinical data. Adopting this quantitative modelling approach should streamline herbal product safety assessments, assist in FC-DI management, and ultimately promote safe clinical use of oncology drugs.

Abstract
Abstract
Since 3000 B.C., evergreen plant Thea sinensis (Theaceae) is used both as a social and medicinal beverage. Leaves of T. sinensis contain amino acids, vitamins, caffeine, polysaccharides and polyphenols. Most of the natural medicinal actions of tea are due to the availability and abundance of polyphenols mainly catechins. It has also been stated that some catechins were absorbed more rapidly than other compounds after the oral administration of tea and could increase the bio-enhancing activities of anticancer drugs by inhibiting P-glycoprotein (P-gp). The results of the molecular docking showed that polyphenols bind easily to the active P-gp site. All compounds exhibited fluctuating binding affinity ranged from −11.67 to −8.36 kcal/mol. Observed binding energy required for theaflavin to bind to P-gp was lowest (−11.67 kcal/mol). The obtained data that supports all the selected polyphenols inhibited P-gp and therefore may enhance the bioavailability of drugs. This study may play a vital role in finding hotspots in P-gp and eventually may be proved useful in designing compounds with high affinity and specificity to the protein.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 enzymes (P450 enzymes) are the most common and important phase I metabolic enzymes and are responsible for the majority of the metabolism of clinical drugs and other xenobiotics. Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) can occur when the activities of P450 enzymes are inhibited. In particular, irreversible inhibition of P450 enzymes may lead to severe adverse interactions, compared to reversible inhibition. Many natural products have been shown to be irreversible inhibitors of P450 enzymes. The risks for intake of naturally occurring irreversible P450 enzyme inhibitors have been rising due to the rapid growth of the global consumption of natural products. Irreversible inhibition is usually called mechanism-based inactivation, which is time-, concentration- and NADPH- dependent. Generally, the formation of electrophilic intermediates is fundamental for the inactivation of P450 enzymes. This review comprehensively classifies natural P450 enzyme inactivators, including terpenoids, phenylpropanoids, flavonoids, alkaloids, and quinones obtained from herbs or foods. Moreover, the structure - activity correlations according to the IC50 (or Ki) values reported in the literature as well as the underlying mechanisms based on metabolic activation are highlighted in depth.

Abstract
Today, the numbers of people suffering from lifestyle diseases like diabetes, obesity, allergies and depression increases mainly in industrialised states. That does not only lower patients' quality of life but also severely stresses the health care systems of these countries. Essential oils (EO) have been in use as therapeutic remedies for centuries against various complaints, but still their effectiveness is being underestimated. In the last decades, a great number of controlled studies have supported efficacy of these volatile secondary plant metabolites for various therapeutic indications. Besides others, EO has antidepressant, anti-obesity, antidiabetic, antifirogenic and antiallergic effects. In this review the pharmacological mechanisms for selected EO are summarised and discussed with the main attention on their impact against public health disorders. Additionally, toxicity of these oils as well as possible drug interactions is presented.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of complementary and alternative medicine including herbal medicine (phytotherapy), vitamins, minerals and food supplements is frequent among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHAs) who take antiretroviral (ARV) drugs, but is often not known by their prescribing physicians. Some drug-supplement combinations may result in clinically meaningful interactions. AIMS In this literature review, we aimed to investigate the evidence for complementary and alternative medicine interactions with ARVs. SOURCES A bibliographic search of all in vitro, human studies and case reports of the PubMed database was performed to assess the risk of interactions between complementary and alternative self-medication products and ARVs. The 'HIV drug interaction' (https://www.hiv-druginteractions.org) and 'Natural medicines comprehensive database' (https://naturalmedicines.therapeuticresearch.com) interaction checkers were also analysed. CONTENT St John's wort, some forms of garlic, grapefruit and red rice yeast are known to have significant interaction and thus should not be co-administered, or should be used with caution with certain ARV classes. Data on other plant-based supplements come from in vitro studies or very small size in vivo studies and are thus insufficient to conclude the real in vivo impact in case of concomitant administration with ARVs. Some polyvalent minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and iron salts can reduce the absorption of integrase inhibitors by chelation. Potential interactions with vitamin C and quercetin with some ARVs should be noted and efficacy and tolerance of the treatment should be monitored. IMPLICATIONS This review shows the importance of screening all PLWHAs for complementary and alternative medicine use to prevent treatment failure or adverse effects related to an interaction with ARVs. Further human studies are warranted to describe the clinical significance of in vitro interactions between numerous complementary and alternative medicine and ARVs.

Abstract
Protein kinase inhibitors (PKI) are a growing class of anticancer agents. They are prescribed with flat doses, and their oral administration is associated with interindividual variability in exposure. Patients can be over- or underexposed, due to numerous factors. We reviewed key pharmacokinetic concepts and mechanisms by which PKIs prescription could be altered. Challenging situations that could lead to increased toxicity or to therapeutic failure are described and recommendation for clinicians are proposed. Finally, the interest of therapeutic drug monitoring and indications for its use in daily practice is discussed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Several severe drug interactions have been reported when sildenafil, a potent drug for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, is co-administered with drugs or herbal remedies that inhibit cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4. This study evaluates the effects of two citrus fruit juices, lemon and Seville orange, on the pharmacokinetics of sildenafil in male healthy subjects following a single oral dose. METHODS We conducted an open-label, three-way crossover study in nine healthy male volunteers. Participants received a single oral dose of sildenafil (50 mg) after pretreatment with 250 mL of either water (control), undiluted lemon juice, or Seville orange juice for 3 consecutive days. All subjects were monitored for adverse effects during the study period. Plasma samples were collected for 12 h after dosing and analyzed for sildenafil concentration. RESULTS Compared with pretreatment with water, Seville orange juice significantly increased the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity and the peak plasma concentration of sildenafil by 44 % (90 % confidence interval [CI] 30-60) and 18 % (90 % CI 108-129), respectively, without affecting the time to reach peak plasma concentration. Additionally, Seville orange juice significantly reduced the apparent oral clearance of sildenafil by 30 % (90 % CI 63-75) without affecting its elimination half-life. In contrast, lemon juice did not cause any significant alterations in the pharmacokinetics of sildenafil. There was no significant treatment-related adverse effects reported during the study. CONCLUSIONS Although it is considered as a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor, Seville orange only caused a mild increase in exposure to sildenafil after a single oral dose, without manifestation of any adverse effects. The enhanced bioavailability of sildenafil by Seville orange may be attributed to inhibition of its intestinal first-pass effect (CYP3A4 and or p-glycoprotein). Lemon juice, in contrast, had no effects on the pharmacokinetics of sildenafil.

We previously demonstrated that tomato juice (TJ) contains potent mechanism-based inhibitor(s) of CYP3A4. In this study, we investigated the effects of TJ and grapefruit juice (GFJ) on the pharmacokinetics of the CYP3A4-substrate drugs, nifedipine (NFP) and midazolam (MDZ), in male Wistar rats. Oral administration of GFJ 90 min before the intraduodenal administration of NFP or MDZ increased the area under the concentration–time curves (AUCs) of NFP and MDZ by 32.4% and 89.4%, respectively. TJ increased MDZ blood concentrations and AUC after intraduodenal MDZ administration; however, it had no effect on NFP. When MDZ and NFP were intravenously administered, GFJ significantly increased the AUC of MDZ, but only slightly increased that of NFP. In contrast, TJ only slightly increased the AUC of MDZ. These results suggest that, similar to GFJ, TJ influences the pharmacokinetics of CYP3A4-substrate drugs; however, it may be a drug-dependent partial effect.

Abstract
Herbal medicines are currently in high demand, and their popularity is steadily increasing. Because of their perceived effectiveness, fewer side effects and relatively low cost, they are being used for the management of numerous medical conditions. However, they are capable of affecting the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of coadministered conventional drugs. These interactions are particularly of clinically relevance when metabolizing enzymes and xenobiotic transporters, which are responsible for the fate of many drugs, are induced or inhibited, sometimes resulting in unexpected outcomes. This article discusses the general use of herbal medicines in the management of several ailments, their concurrent use with conventional therapy, mechanisms underlying herb-drug interactions (HDIs) as well as the drawbacks of herbal remedy use. The authors also suggest means of surveillance and safety monitoring of herbal medicines. Contrary to popular belief that "herbal medicines are totally safe," we are of the view that they are capable of causing significant toxic effects and altered pharmaceutical outcomes when coadministered with conventional medicines. Due to the paucity of information as well as sometimes conflicting reports on HDIs, much more research in this field is needed. The authors further suggest the need to standardize and better regulate herbal medicines in order to ensure their safety and efficacy when used alone or in combination with conventional drugs.

Abstract
1. In a clinical trial, a strong drug-drug interaction (DDI) was observed between dextromethorphan (DM, the object or victim drug) and GSK1034702 (the precipitant or perpetrator drug), following single and repeat doses. This study determined the inhibition parameters of GSK1034702 in vitro and applied PBPK modelling approaches to simulate the clinical observations and provide mechanistic hypotheses to understand the DDI. 2. In vitro assays were conducted to determine the inhibition parameters of human CYP2D6 by GSK1034702. PBPK models were populated with the in vitro parameters and DDI simulations conducted and compared to the observed data from a clinical study with DM and GSK1034702. 3. GSK1034702 was a potent direct and metabolism-dependent inhibitor of human CYP2D6, with inhibition parameters of: IC50 = 1.6 μM, Kinact = 3.7 h-1 and KI = 0.8 μM. Incorporating these data into PBPK models predicted a DDI after repeat, but not single, 5 mg doses of GSK1034702. 4. The DDI observed with repeat administration of GSK1034702 (5 mg) can be attributed to metabolism-dependent inhibition of CYP2D6. Further, in vitro data were generated and several potential mechanisms proposed to explain the interaction observed following a single dose of GSK1034702.

Abstract
Dextromethorphan (DXM) is a widely available antitussive that has, at elevated dose levels, euphoric and dissociative effects. This article presents the reported patterns and preferences of DXM use, and perceptions of DXM use among adult members of an online DXM community. Analyses were conducted of quantitative and qualitative responses from nine female and 43 male individuals, aged 18-63 years old. All respondents reported illegal and DXM drug use, beginning, on average, at 15.7 and 17.1 years of age, respectively. The majority of respondents first heard about DXM online or from a friend, preferred to use DXM alone, ingested substances concurrently with DXM to modify its effects, had not been to an emergency room or arrested because of their DXM use, and used DXM for its dissociative and mind-altering effects. DXM was perceived as safe and in no need of further regulation with only 14% of respondents mentioning DXM's addictive qualities. Findings from this sample of adult DXM users reveal a sophisticated subculture in which users report using DXM specifically to induce changes to their mental state and use a variety of substances to modify or enhance DXM's effects.

Abstract
Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) juice is known for its ability to alter drug metabolism through inhibition of the cytochrome P450-3A4 (CYP3A4) system, and result in drug-food interactions that may be life threatening. The primary active ingredients in grapefruit responsible for these effects are the furanocoumarins bergapten, bergamottin, and 6',7'-dihydroxybergamottin (DHB). Bergamottin and DHB appear to be the most important in terms of adverse drug interactions. Furanocoumarins are present in the juices and fruits of other Citrus species including C. aurantium (bitter oranges). Bergapten is the predominant furanocoumarin in bitter orange. Bitter orange extracts are widely used in products associated with weight loss, sports performance, and energy production. Questions have been raised about the potential of bitter orange extracts to cause drug interactions. This study examined the furanocoumarin content of four standardized bitter orange extracts (Advantra Z®) by liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy. The results indicated that the total furanocoumarin content of each of the four extracts was less than 20 μg/g, amounts insufficient to exert significant effects on the metabolism of susceptible drugs in human subjects at the doses commonly used for these extracts.

Abstract
Grapefruit is rich in flavonoids, which have been demonstrated to have a preventive influence on many chronic diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular disease. However, since the early 1990s, the potential health benefits of grapefruit have been overshadowed by the possible risk of interactions between drugs and grapefruit and grapefruit juice. Several drugs interacting with grapefruit are known in different drug classes, such as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, calcium antagonists, and immunosuppressives. Currently known mechanisms of interaction include the inhibition of cytochrome P450 as a major mechanism, but potential interactions with P-glycoprotein and organic anion transporters have also been reported. This review is designed to provide a comprehensive summary of underlying mechanisms of interaction and human clinical trials performed in the area of grapefruit drug interactions and to point out possible replacements for drugs with a high potential for interactions.

Abstract
Grapefruit juice and grapefruit product consumption have potential health benefits; however, their intake is also associated with interactions with certain drugs, including calcium channel blockers, immunosuppressants and antihistamines. The primary mechanism through which interactions are mediated is mechanism-based intestinal cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibition by furanocoumarins resulting in increased bioavailability of administered medications that are substrates. Grapefruit products have also been associated with interactions with P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and uptake transporters (e.g. organic anion-transporting polypeptides [OATPs]). Polyphenolic compounds such as flavonoids have been proposed as the causative agents of the P-gp and OATP interactions. The mechanisms and magnitudes of the interactions can be influenced by the concentrations of furanocoumarins and flavonoids in the grapefruit product, the volume of juice consumed, and the inherent variability of specific enzymes and transporter components in humans. It is therefore challenging to predict the extent of grapefruit product-drug interactions and to compare available in vitro and in vivo data. The clinical significance of such interactions also depends on the disposition and toxicity profile of the drug being administered. The aim of this review is to outline the mechanisms of grapefruit-drug interactions and present a comprehensive summary of those agents affected and whether they are likely to be of clinical relevance.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since their initial discovery in 1989, grapefruit juice (GFJ)-drug interactions have received extensive interest from the scientific, medical, regulatory and lay communities. Although knowledge regarding the effects of GFJ on drug disposition continues to expand, the list of drugs studied in the clinical setting remains relatively limited. AREAS COVERED This article reviews the in vitro effects of GFJ and its constituents on the activity of CYP enzymes, organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATPs), P-glycoprotein, esterases and sulfotransferases. The translational applicability of the in vitro findings to the clinical setting is discussed for each drug metabolizing enzyme and transporter. Reported AUC ratios for available GFJ-drug interaction studies are also provided. Relevant investigations were identified by searching the PubMed electronic database from 1989 to 2010. EXPERT OPINION GFJ increases the bioavailability of some orally administered drugs that are metabolized by CYP3A and normally undergo extensive presystemic extraction. In addition, GFJ can decrease the oral absorption of a few drugs that rely on OATPs in the gastrointestinal tract for their uptake. The number of drugs shown to interact with GFJ in vitro is far greater than the number of clinically relevant GFJ-drug interactions. For the majority of patients, complete avoidance of GFJ is unwarranted.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD the global increase in the popularity of alternative medicines has raised renewed concerns regarding herb-drug interactions. These interactions are especially important for drugs with narrow therapeutic indices and may either be pharmacodynamic or pharmacokinetic in nature. AREAS COVERED IN THIS REVIEW pharmacokinetic interactions which may exist between herbs and drugs, and the mechanisms of these interactions with appropriate examples based on primary and secondary data in publications are discussed. The mechanisms covered include those that affect oral drug absorption (e.g., modulation of efflux and uptake transporters, complex formation, gastrointestinal motility and pH) and drug biotransformation (e.g., inhibition or induction of enzymes). WHAT THE READER WILL GAIN knowledge on the mechanisms of herb-drug pharmacokinetic interactions supported by an extended list of these types of interactions for quick reference. A critical evaluation of certain herb-drug pharmacokinetic interactions reported in the scientific literature. TAKE HOME MESSAGE as the incidence and severity of herb-drug pharmacokinetic interactions increase due to a worldwide rise in the use of herbal preparations, more clinical data regarding herb-drug pharmacokinetic interactions are needed to make informed decisions regarding patient safety.

Abstract
A rapid and sensitive ultra performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous quantitative determination of dextromethorphan (DM) and its metabolites dextrorphan (DX), 3-methoxymorphinan (3MM) and 3-hydroxymorphinan (3HM), in human lithium heparinized plasma. The extraction involved a simple liquid-liquid extraction with 1 ml n-butylchloride from 200μl aliquots of plasma, after the addition of 20 μl 4% (v/v) ammonium hydroxide and 100 μl stable labeled isotopic internal standards in acetonitrile. Chromatographic separations were achieved on an Aquity UPLC(®) BEH C(18) 1.7 μm 2.1 mm x 100mm column eluted at a flow-rate of 0.250 ml/min on a gradient of acetonitrile. The overall cycle time of the method was 7 min, with elution times of 1.3min for DX and 3HM, 2.8 min for 3MM and 2.9min for DM. The multiple reaction monitoring transitions were set at 272>215 (m/z), at 258>133 (m/z), at 258>213 (m/z) and at 244>157 (m/z) for DM, DX, 3MM and 3HM, respectively. The calibration curves were linear (r²≥0.995) over the range of 0.500-100 nM with the lower limit of quantitation validated at 0.500 nM for all compounds, which is equivalent to 136, 129, 129 and 122 pg/ml for DM, DX, 3MM and 3HM, respectively. Extraction recoveries were constant, but ranged from 39% for DM to 83% for DX. The within-run and between-run precisions were within 11.6%, while the accuracy ranged from 92.7 to 110.6%. The applicability of the bioanalytical method was demonstrated and is currently implemented in a clinical trial to study DM as probe-drug for individualized tamoxifen treatment in breast cancer patients.

Abstract
Food-drug interactions have been associated with clinically important pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes of a drug. The aim of this paper is to review the regulation of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) by dietary components and to correlate the changes in cellular P-gp function and expression with drug bioavailability. In summary, the published literature has provided extensive data supporting the modulation of drug bioavailability through P-gp regulation by components in food groups such as fruit juices, spices, herbs, cruciferous vegetables and green tea. Most of these data were, however, derived from in vitro cell models and, except for the St John's wort, the clinical significance of most reported interactions remains to be clarified. Studies on piperine and capsaicin have underscored an often poor correlation between in vivo and in vitro data, whereas experiments involving curcumin highlighted differences between acute and chronic consumption of a dietary component on P-gp function and expression in vivo. A better understanding of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of the dietary components will aid in addressing these knowledge gaps.

Abstract
Abstract
Ivermectin (IVM) is a broad-spectrum antiparasitic drug extensively used in human and veterinary medicine that is largely excreted in bile and faeces. Loperamide (LPM) is an opioid derivative that reduces gastrointestinal secretions and motility. Both IVM and LPM have been reported to act as P-glycoprotein substrates (P-GP). The goal of the present work was to study the LPM-induced modifications to the pattern of tissue distribution for IVM. Thirty-six Wistar male rats were randomly allocated to two groups (n = 18) and treated subcutaneously with IVM alone or co-administered with LPM. Rats were killed at different times post-treatment and samples (blood and tissues) were collected and analyzed by HPLC. The presence of LPM induced a marked enhancement in the IVM plasma concentrations, resulting in a significantly higher area under concentration time curve (AUC) value (P < 0.01) than that obtained after the administration of IVM alone. Significantly higher IVM availabilities in the liver tissue and small intestine wall (P < 0.05) were obtained in the presence of LPM. There were no statistically significant differences in drug availability in the large intestinal wall after both treatments. However, LPM induced a marked decrease in the amount of IVM recovered in the large intestinal lumen content. The ratio between IVM concentrations in the large intestinal luminal content and plasma at day 1 post-treatment was 4.64-fold higher in the absence of LPM. The delayed intestinal transit time caused by LPM accounting for an extended plasma–intestine recycling time, and a potential competition between IVM and LPM for the P-GP-mediated bile–intestinal secretion processes, may account for the enhanced IVM systemic availability reported in the current study.

Abstract
Abstract
Grapefruit juice can modify the pharmacokinetic parameters of many drugs, in particular simvastatin, an orally active cholesterol-lowering agent. The exact components in grapefruit juice responsible for drug interactions are not perfectly known. However, it seems that bergamottin, a furocoumarin derivative, is one of the main active components within grapefruit juice. The objective of this paper was to quantify and to characterize in-vitro the inhibitory effect of bergamottin on simvastatin metabolism by using rat and human liver microsomes. In rat liver microsomes, the incubation conditions (± NADPH) of bergamottin were found to influence its inhibiting capacity. In co-incubation with simvastatin, the Ki value (the equilibrium dissociation constant for the enzyme-inhibitor complex) was higher (Ki = 174±36 μm) than in pre-incubation (Ki =45±6 μm and 4±2μm, without and with NADPH, respectively). It thus seems that the pre-incubation of bergamottin (in particular with NADPH) increases its inhibiting capacity on simvastatin metabolism. Bergamottin metabolism study in rat liver microsomes showed the formation of two metabolites that were CYP-450 dependent. In contrast, in human liver microsomes, the incubation conditions of bergamottin did not influence its inhibiting capacity of simvastatin metabolism (Ki = 34±5 μm, Ki = 22±5 μm, Ki = 27±11 μm in co-incubation and pre-incubation without and with NADPH, respectively). In rat and man, bergamottin was found to be a mixed-type inhibitor of simvastatin hepatic metabolism. However, in rat, bergamottin was partially a mechanism-based inhibitor by involvement of either bergamottin alone or one of its metabolites. The results highlight the importance of validating in-vitro models to help verify the suitability of the in-vitro model for predicting the nature and degree of metabolic drug interactions.

Abstract
Abstract
Little information is available about drug interactions with cranberry juice (CJ). Using microsomes from the human liver and rat small intestine, this study was designed to determine whether CJ could inhibit CYP3A-mediated nifedipine (NFP) oxidase activity; it showed that CJ was a potent inhibitor of human and rat CYP3A. Preincubation with 10% vol/vol of CJ and 1 mM NADPH for 10 min resulted in significant inhibition of the NFP oxidation activity of human and rat CYP3A (18.2 and 12.6% decreases, respectively, compared with preincubation experiments without NADPH). In addition, the pharmacokinetic interaction between CJ and NFP in vivo was confirmed in rats. In comparison with a control group, the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of NFP was approximately 1.6-fold higher when CJ (2 mL) was injected intraduodenally 30 min before the intraduodenal administration of NFP (30 mg kg−1). However, the mean residence time, the volume of distribution and the elimination rate constant were not changed significantly. These data suggest that CJ component(s) inhibit the function of enteric CYP3A. In conclusion, it was found that CJ inhibits the CYP3A-mediated metabolism of NFP in both rats and humans. Furthermore, CJ alters NFP pharmacokinetics in rats.

Abstract
Introduction. The concentration of many orally given medications may be
affected by grapefruit or grapefruit juice consumption. It may result in
numerous harmful effects. Interaction of grapefruit with drugs. Taking only
one cup of juice may induce interactions with different drugs even during the
period of a few days. The effect is induced by suppression of cytochrome P450
isoenzyme CYP3A4 in the intestinal wall. The Latin name of grapefruit, Citrus
paradisi, is quite opposite to the effects which could be induced by taking
grapefruit and some medications at the same time. It is necessary to avoid
taking grapefruit with the drugs whose pharmacokinetics could be altered by
the active principles found in that fruit. Discussion. The coloured
grapefruit contains less furanocoumarins, but there is no difference in
induction and intensity of pharmacokinetic interaction with drugs related to
its colour. Other citrus fruits (orange, lemon) do not have such effects, but
some other fruits (pomegranate, stella fruit, banpeiyu, hassaku,
takaoka-buntan and kinkan) exert inhibitory effects on the activity of
cytochrome P450 isoenzyme.

Abstract
Grapefruit juice (GFJ) has been shown to affect the pharmacokinetics of a large number of drugs, essentially by inhibition of efflux transporters and CYP3A4 monooxygenase in the small intestine. The GFJ dose usually used in human studies was one glass single-strength (1x). Information on a respective dose-response relationship is not available. We investigated the effect of GFJ of different concentration (0.25 x, 0.5x, 1x, 2x) dosed in biweekly intervals in 19 volunteers. Components considered responsible for drug interactions, naringin, naringenin, bergamottin, and 6',7'-dihydroxybergamottin were determined by LC-tandem mass spectrometry. Immediately after ingestion of GFJ, participants took an aqueous solution of dextromethorphan (DEX) as probe drug. Urine was collected in two sampling periods, 0-2 and 2-4h, and excreted amounts of DEX and five metabolites associated with CYP3A4 and/or CYP2D6 enzyme activity were determined. Effects of GFJ were analyzed by the Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test against an average of four water control experiments. Two effects were highly significant: (i) a delay of total metabolite excretion in the first 2h and (ii) an inhibition of the CYP3A4-dependent metabolic pathways. Effect magnitude and significance levels were dose-dependent and indicated 200 ml 1x GFJ as "lowest observed effect level" LOEL.

Abstract
Previous in vitro studies using Caco-2 cell monolayers suggested a possible interaction between green and black tea and folic acid at the level of intestinal absorption. The main purpose of the present study was to investigate a possible pharmacokinetic interaction between tea and folic acid in healthy volunteers. In an open-labeled randomized cross-over study, the pharmacokinetic interaction between tea and folic acid (0.4 mg and 5 mg) was investigated in healthy volunteers. Water was used as the reference drink. Subjects ingested 0.4 mg folic acid tablets with water, green or black tea (0.3 g extract/250 ml) or 5 mg folic acid tablets with water or green tea (0.3 g extract/250 ml). Blood samples were collected over a period of 8 h. Serum folate analysis was carried out by a competitive immunoassay which uses direct chemiluminescent technology. At the 0.4 mg folic acid dose, green and black tea reduced the mean C(max) of serum folate by 39.2% and 38.6%, and the mean AUC(0 --> infinity) by 26.6% and 17.9%, respectively. At the 5 mg folic acid dose, the mean C(max) of serum folate was reduced by 27.4% and the mean AUC(0 --> infinity) was decreased significantly by 39.9% by the co-application of green tea. The present results suggest an in vivo interaction between tea and folic acid with even low concentrations of green and black tea extracts yielding decreased bioavailabilities of folic acid.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Grapefruit juice is known to alter the pharmacokinetics of over 30 prescription drugs by increasing their bioavailabilities. After the discovery of this interaction almost 20 years ago, there have been many reports investigating the effects of fruit juices on drug disposition. OBJECTIVE This article reviews the literature on fruit juice-prescription drug interaction studies to determine which juices are likely to cause clinically significant interactions. METHODS We examined the results from in vitro and clinical studies regarding the interactions between prescription drugs and over ten fruit beverages. RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS Grapefruit juice and Seville orange juice caused several clinically significant interactions with cytochrome P4503A (CYP3A). The OATP drug transporter was inhibited by grapefruit juice, orange juice, and apple juice. Other fruit juices also interacted with drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters in vitro, but more studies are needed to determine whether these interactions are clinically significant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many antiretroviral drugs used in HIV care involve complex drug metabolism by CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 enzymes, and drug interactions are problematic clinically. AMD070, a novel entry inhibitor, is an inhibitor of X4-tropic HIV virus. In vitro data suggested that it is a CYP3A4 substrate and may inhibit CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. METHODS Twelve healthy subjects were given a single oral dose of 5 mg of midazolam and 30 mg of dextromethorphan on day 1 and 9, and 200 mg of AMD070 twice daily on days 2 through 9 (inclusive). Pharmacokinetic parameters of midazolam and dextromethorphan were assessed alone and in the presence of AMD070. RESULTS The mean AUC0-24 and Cmax of dextromethorphan increased 2.86-fold (2.20 to 5.10, 90% confidence interval [CI]) and 2.52-fold (1.99 to 4.24, 90% CI), respectively, in the presence of AMD070. Plasma AUC0-12 of midazolam increased 1.33-fold (1.15 to 1.61, 90% CI) without change in Cmax. The half-life did not change for both drugs, but significant, parallel decrease in apparent oral clearance and volume of distribution was observed. CONCLUSIONS The data support an alteration in bioavailability due to an AMD070-mediated inhibition of presystemic metabolism, though an intestinal P-glycoprotein effect could also be contributing. Interactions between AMD070 with CYP3A4 and, especially, 2D6 substrates of clinical importance in HIV care should be further explored.

Abstract
The trough level of blood concentration of cyclosporin A (CyA) in a patient receiving immunotherapy was observed to decrease following coadministration of amphotericin B (AMB). This clinical observation was confirmed experimentally in Wistar rats intravenously given AMB (1.5 or 3.0 mg/kg) or saline (control) for 4 days, followed by CyA (10 mg/kg). The blood concentration of CyA after i.v. or p.o. administration in both AMB groups was significantly decreased compared with the control. The oral bioavailability of CyA after 1.5 or 3.0 mg/kg AMB treatment was decreased to 67% or 46%, respectively, of that of the control group. AMB treatment increased the expression levels of mdr1a and mdr1b mRNAs in the duodenum to about three times the control, and expression of CYP3A2 mRNA in the liver was increased to about twice the control. The P-gp and CYP3A2 proteins were increased significantly. These findings suggest that the oral bioavailability of CyA is reduced as a result of both increased efflux transport via P-glycoprotein in the duodenum and an increased first-pass effect of CYP3A2-mediated hepatic metabolic activity, induced by AMB. It is suggested that careful monitoring of CyA levels is necessary in the event of AMB administration to patients receiving immunotherapy with CyA.

Abstract
PURPOSE The interaction potential between warfarin and cranberry juice is discussed. SUMMARY Reports from the United Kingdom have raised concern over the interaction potential between cranberry juice and warfarin. Warfarin is the most commonly prescribed oral medication for anticoagulation therapy. Cranberry juice is a flavonoid, which has been shown to induce, inhibit, or act as a substrate for the biosynthesis of several cytochrome P-450 (CYP) isoenzymes. Specifically, cranberry juice may inhibit the activity of CYP2C9, the primary isoenzyme involved in the metabolism of S-warfarin. A search of the medical literature identified three peer-reviewed case reports and two peer-reviewed, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials using metabolic surrogates of warfarin (flurbiprofen and cyclosporine) that described possible interactions between cranberry juice and warfarin. Two case reports suggested that cranberry juice increased the International Normalized Ratio (INR) of patients taking warfarin, but neither clearly identified cranberry juice as the sole cause of INR elevation. One case report appeared to show a correlation between the effects of cranberry juice and warfarin metabolism. Both clinical trials indicated the lack of an interaction between cranberry juice and CYP isoenzymes 2C9 and 3A, both of which are necessary in warfarin metabolism. More studies are required to determine the potential interaction between cranberry juice and warfarin. CONCLUSION The available data do not seem to show a clinically relevant interaction between cranberry juice and warfarin; however, patients taking warfarin with cranberry juice should be cautioned about the potential interaction and monitored closely for INR changes and signs and symptoms of bleeding.

Abstract
We examined whether the oral bioavailability of cyclosporin A is controlled primarily by P-glycoprotein (P-gp) or CYP3A in the small intestine. In situ loop method was used to evaluate the uptake of cyclosporin A (40nmol) at the upper and lower intestine of wild-type and mdr1a/1b knockout mice treated or not treated with dexamethasone (75mg/kg/day, 7 days, i.p.). Expression of CYP3A mRNA in the control group was higher in the upper than the lower intestine, while that of the multidrug resistance-1a (mdr1a) mRNA was in the opposite order. Dexamethasone administration potently induced CYP3A and mdr1a mRNAs in the lower and upper intestine, respectively. At 45min after cyclosporin A administration into an upper intestinal loop of the control group of wild-type mice, the ratio of residual cyclosporin A to dose did not differ significantly from that of mdr1a/1b knockout mice, whereas in dexamethasone-treated wild-type mice, the residual ratio was increased significantly. The ratio of the cyclosporin A metabolite M17 to cyclosporin A in portal venous blood at an upper intestinal loop of mdr1a/1b knockout mice was much higher than that a lower intestinal loop. The M17/cyclosporin A ratio of portal venous blood at a lower intestinal loop in mdr1a/1b knockout mice was increased significantly by dexamethasone treatment. These results suggest that, under physiological conditions, the oral bioavailability of cyclosporin A is mainly controlled by CYP3A in the upper intestine, rather than liver, but when P-gp is induced by steroid, the intestinal absorption of cyclosporin A may be inhibited.

Abstract
The transcellular transport of ingested food ingredients across the intestinal epithelial barrier is an important factor determining bioavailability upon oral intake. This transcellular transport of many chemicals, food ingredients, drugs or toxic compounds over the intestinal epithelium can be highly dependent on the activity of membrane bound ATP binding cassette (ABC) transport proteins, able to export the compounds from the intestinal cells. The present review describes the ABC transporters involved in the efflux of bioactive compounds from the intestinal cells, either to the basolateral blood side, facilitating absorption, or back into the intestinal lumen, reducing bioavailability. The role of the ABC transporters in intestinal transcellular uptake also implies a role for inhibitors of these transporters in modulation of the bioavailability upon oral uptake. The present paper focuses on the role of flavonoids as important modulators or substrates of intestinal ABC transport proteins. Several examples of such an effect of flavonoids are presented. It can be concluded that flavonoid-mediated inhibition of ABC transporters may affect the bioavailability of drugs, bioactive food ingredients and/or food-borne toxic compounds upon oral uptake. All together it appears that the flavonoid-mediated interactions at the level of the intestinal ABC transport proteins may be an important mechanism for unexpected food-drug, food-toxin or food-food interactions. The overview also indicates that future studies should focus on i) in vivo validation of the flavonoid-mediated effects on bioavailability of drugs, toxins and beneficial bioactive food ingredients detected in in vitro models, and on ii) the role of flavonoid phase II metabolism in modulating the activity of the flavonoids to act as ABC transporter inhibitors and/or substrates.

Abstract
Terpenoids form a large and structurally diverse family of natural products and are ingredients of various herbal medicines. We have investigated possible interactions between herbal medicines and conventional medicines, and recently reported that monoterpenoids contained in Zanthoxyli Fructus can be potent inhibitors of P-glycoprotein (P-gp). In the present study, the influence of 70 kinds of terpenoids present in natural products on P-gp-mediated efflux transport was investigated. LLC-GA5-COL150 cells transfected with human MDR1 cDNA encoding P-gp were used to screen the terpenoids. Large increases in the intracellular accumulation of [(3)H]digoxin were observed in the presence of (R)-(+)-citronellal, (S)-(-)-beta-citronellol, alpha-terpinene, terpinolene, (-)-beta-pinene, abietic acid, ophiobolin A, cucurbitacin I, and glycyrrhetic acid. A study of the concentration-dependency revealed that the IC(50) of ophiobolin A, glycyrrhetic acid, (R)-(+)-citronellal, abietic acid, and cucurbitacin I was smaller than that of verapamil. The transcellular transport of [(3)H]digoxin across Caco-2 cell monolayers was then examined in the presence of (R)-(+)-citronellal, abietic acid, and glycyrrhetic acid. Significant increases in the apical-to-basolateral transport and decreases in the basolateral-to-apical transport and efflux ratio were demonstrated. These findings suggest that some natural products containing these terpenoids may inhibit P-gp-mediated transport and interact with P-gp substrates in the intestinal absorption process.

Abstract
AIMS The primary aim of the study was to investigate the possible effect of the CYP2C8*3 allele and of grapefruit juice on the pharmacokinetics of repaglinide. Furthermore, the impact of a single dose of grapefruit juice on the pharmacokinetics of repaglinide in relation to dose. METHODS Thirty-six healthy male subjects, genotyped for CYP2C8*3 (11 genotyped as CYP2C8*1/*3, one as CYP2C8*3/*3 and 24 as CYP2C8*1/*1), participated in a randomized, cross-over trial. In the two phases, the subjects drank 300 mL water or 300 mL grapefruit juice, in randomized order, 2 h before administration of a single dose of either 0.25 mg or 2 mg repaglinide. RESULTS Neither the mean AUC(0-infinity) (geometric mean ratio: 1.01; 95% CI: 0.93-1.1, P = 0.88) nor the mean C(max) (geometric mean ratio: 1.05; 95% CI: 0.94-1.2, P = 0.35) of repaglinide were statistically significantly different in the group carrying the CYP2C8*3 mutant allele compared with wild-types. Grapefruit juice caused a 19% decrease in the geometric mean ratio of the 3-hydroxyquinidine to quinidine ratio (difference: 0.81; 95% CI: 0.75-0.87, P < 0.0001), which was used as an index of CYP3A4 activity, and an increase in the mean AUC(0-infinity) of repaglinide (geometric mean ratio: 1.13; 95% CI: 1.04-1.2, P = 0.0048), but had no statistically significant effect on the t(1/2). There was no statistically significant difference in blood glucose concentration in subjects who had or had not ingested grapefruit juice. The effect was more pronounced at the low dose of repaglinide (0.25 mg) than at the therapeutic dose of 2 mg. CONCLUSIONS The pharmacokinetics of repaglinide in subjects carrying the CYP2C8*3 mutant allele did not differ significantly from those in the wild-types. Grapefruit juice increased the bioavailability of repaglinide, suggesting significant intestinal elimination of the drug which was assumed to be primarily mediated by CYP3A4 in the gut.

The purpose of the current study was to identify changes in caffeine pharmacokinetics, resting energy expenditure (REE), oxygen consumption (VO(2)) and respiratory exchange ratio (RER) after an acute dosage of caffeine and naringin. 2. Using a double-blinded, counterbalanced design, REE, VO(2), and RER were measured before and systematically for 8 h after a single dosage of caffeine (CAF, 200 mg) with and without naringin (100 mg (CN100) or 200 mg (CN200)) in 10 apparently healthy individuals. A standardized meal was provided following 240-minute measurements (400 kcals; 35 g carbohydrate; 27 g protein; 7 g fat). 3. Caffeine, CN100, CN200 did not alter VO(2) or VO(2) area under the curve (137 301 +/- 8318, 139 729 +/- 9300, 134 297 +/- 8318, mL/480 min). Resting energy expenditure (k/cals) was 10.0 +/- 1.4% higher with CAF versus CN200 (6.0 +/- 1.4%) and CN100 (6 +/- 1.5%) at 240 min (P = 0.07) which was then negated following a standardized meal. Percent change in RER from pre to 240 min and pre to 480 min was not different between the CAF, CN100, or CN200 (-0.2 +/- 1.7%, 1.7 +/- 1.7%, -2.8 +/- 1.9%). 4. Although caffeine alone suggests a trend of increased REE, the results of the present study indicate that concurrent consumption of caffeine with naringin in acute dosages does not affect RER, VO(2), and prevents the increase of REE in adult humans. The results suggest that the interaction of grapefruit juice and caffeine may be due to constituents of grapefruit juice other than naringin or in addition to naringin.

Abstract
Complementary and alternative medicines can be applied concomitantly with conventional medicines; however, little drug information is available on these interactions. Previously, we reported on the inhibitory effects of an extract and monoterpenoids (e.g., (R)-(+)-citronellal) contained in citrus herbs on P-glycoprotein (P-gp) using P-gp-overexpressed LLC-PK1 cells. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of (R)-(+)-citronellal on P-gp-mediated transport in the intestinal absorption process in vitro and in vivo. Transcellular transport of [(3)H]digoxin across Caco-2 cell monolayers was measured in the presence or absence of (R)-(+)-citronellal. (R)-(+)-citronellal reduced the basolateral-to-apical transport and efflux ratio for [(3)H]digoxin significantly. Serum concentration-time profiles and pharmacokinetic parameters of digoxin after intravenous and oral administration were analyzed in rats pretreated with oral (R)-(+)-citronellal. The bioavailability of digoxin after oral administration decreased significantly to 75.8% of that after intravenous administration at the same dose. (R)-(+)-citronellal increased the bioavailability of oral digoxin to 99.9% but had no effects on total body clearance, volume of distribution, or elimination rate. These findings suggest that (R)-(+)-citronellal can increase the bioavailability of oral digoxin based on the blockade of P-gp-mediated efflux of digoxin from intestinal epithelia to the lumen in the absorption process.

Abstract
Obesity is a major health problem facing the developed and developing world. Efforts by individuals, health professionals, educators, and policy makers to combat the escalating trend of growing obesity prevalence have been multifaceted and mixed in outcome. Various dietary supplements have been marketed to reduce obesity. These products have been suggested to accomplish this by decreasing energy intake and energy absorption, and/or increasing metabolic rate. Ephedra, one such supplement, was banned from sale in the US market because of concerns about adverse events. Another substance, Citrus aurantium, which contains several compounds including synephrine alkaloids, has been suggested as a safe alternative. This review examines the evidence for safety and efficacy of C. aurantium and synephrine alkaloids as examined in animal studies, clinical weight loss trials, acute physiologic studies and case reports. Although at least three reviews of C. aurantium have been published, our review expands upon these by: (i) distinguishing and evaluating the efficacy of C. aurantium and related compounds; (ii) including results from previously unreviewed research; (iii) incorporating recent case reports that serve to highlight, in an anecdotal way, potential adverse events related to the use of C. aurantium and related compounds; and (iv) offering recommendations to guide the design of future trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of C. aurantium. While some evidence is promising, we conclude that larger and more rigorous clinical trials are necessary to draw adequate conclusions regarding the safety and efficacy of C. aurantium and synephrine alkaloids for promoting weight loss.

Abstract
Citrus (rutaceous) herbs are often used in traditional medicine and Japanese cuisine and can be taken concomitantly with conventional medicine. In this study, the effect of various citrus-herb extracts on P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated transport was examined in vitro to investigate a possible interaction with P-gp substrates. Component monoterpenoids of the essential oil in Zanthoxyli fructus was screened to find novel P-gp inhibitors. LLC-GA5-COL150 cells transfected with human MDR1 cDNA encoding P-gp were used. Cellular accumulation of [3H]digoxin was measured in the presence or absence of P-gp inhibitors or test samples. Aurantii fructus, Evodiae fructus, Aurantii fructus immaturus, Aurantii nobilis pericarpium, Phellodendri cortex, and Zanthoxyli fructus were extracted with hot water (decocted) and then fractionated with ethyl acetate. The cell to medium ratio of [3H]digoxin accumulation increased significantly in the presence of the decoction of Evodiae fructus, Aurantii nobilis pericarpium, and Zanthoxyli fructus, and the ethyl acetate fraction of all citrus herbs used. The ethyl acetate fraction of Zanthoxyli fructus exhibited the strongest inhibition of P-gp among tested samples with an IC50 value of 166 microg/mL. Then its component monoterpenoids, geraniol, geranyl acetate, (R)-(+)-limonene, (R)-(+)-linalool, citronellal, (R)-(+)-citronellal, DL-citronellol, (S)-(-)-beta-citronellol, and cineole, were screened. (R)-(+)-citronellal and (S)-(-)-beta-citronellol inhibited P-gp with IC50 values of 167 microM and 504 microM, respectively. These findings suggest that Zanthoxyli fructus may interact with P-gp substrates and that some monoterpenoids with the relatively lower molecular weight of about 150 such as (R)-(+)-citronellal can be potent inhibitors of P-gp.
