Masubuchi Y, Miyauchi K. Metabolism-dependent inhibition of CYP2E1 by isoniazid, a mediator of idiosyncratic liver injury. Chem Biol Interact 2024; 400:111160. [PMID: 39047805 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2024.111160] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2024] [Revised: 07/17/2024] [Accepted: 07/22/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
Liver injury is a well-known adverse effect of the anti-tuberculosis drug isoniazid (INH); however, animal models that accurately replicate this effect as seen in humans have not been constructed, and the mechanism of its pathogenesis remains unclear. Recently, an immune-mediated mechanism have been proposed based on clinical studies, suggesting the involvement of cytochrome P450-mediated formation of reactive metabolites and covalent adducts in severe cases. In the present study, we investigated the role of CYP2E1 in this mechanism. Liver microsomes from humans, rats, and mice were preincubated with INH and NADPH; thereafter, residual CYP2E1 activity was measured. The inhibition of CYP2E1 by INH was potentiated by preincubation, indicating time-dependent inhibition. There were no major species-based differences in inhibition among humans, rats, and mice. Further to our findings on the inhibition kinetics, resistance of the inhibition to glutathione and catalase indicated that the reactive metabolites of INH covalently bonded to CYP2E1 in a suicidal manner. A similar time-dependent inhibition was also observed for the known metabolites acetylhydrazine and hydrazine; however, the conditions that inhibited the hydrolysis or activated the acetylation of INH did not affect inhibition by INH, suggesting that the reactive metabolites contributing to the inhibition were generated via alternative pathways. This indicates that CYP2E1 alone generates reactive INH metabolites and that haptenized CYP2E1 may be involved in immune-mediated liver injury.

Abstract
The Chinese herb Ephedra (also known as Mahuang) has been extensively utilized for the prevention and treatment of coronavirus-induced diseases, including coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the specific anti-SARS-CoV-2 compounds and mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. The main protease (Mpro) of SARS-CoV-2 is a highly conserved enzyme responsible for proteolytic processing during the viral life cycle, making it a critical target for the development of antiviral therapies. This study aimed to identify naturally occurring covalent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro from Ephedra and to investigate their covalent binding sites. The results demonstrated that the non-alkaloid fraction of Ephedra (ENA) exhibited a potent inhibitory effect against the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro effect, whereas the alkaloid fraction did not. Subsequently, the chemical constituents in ENA were identified, and the major constituents' anti-SARS-CoV-2 Mpro effects were evaluated. Among the tested constituents, herbacetin (HE) and gallic acid (GA) were found to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 Mpro in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Their combination displayed a significant synergistic effect on this key enzyme. Additionally, various techniques, including inhibition kinetic assays, chemoproteomic methods, and molecular dynamics simulations, were employed to further elucidate the synergistic anti-Mpro mechanisms of the combination of HE and GA. Overall, this study deciphers the naturally occurring covalent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro from Ephedra and characterizes their synergistic anti-Mpro synergistic effect, providing robust evidence to support the anti-coronavirus efficacy of Ephedra.

Abstract
Acetaminophen (APAP) overdosing is the most common cause of drug-induced liver failure. Despite extensive study, N-acetylcysteine is currently the only antidote utilized for treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect and mechanisms of phenelzine, an FDA-approved antidepressant, on APAP-induced toxicity in HepG2 cells. The human liver hepatocellular cell line HepG2 was used to investigate APAP-induced cytotoxicity. The protective effects of phenelzine were determined by examining the cell viability, combination index calculation, Caspase 3/7 activation, Cytochrome c release, H2O2 levels, NO levels, GSH activity, PERK protein levels, and pathway enrichment analysis. Elevated H2O2 production and decreased glutathione (GSH) levels were indicators of APAP-induced oxidative stress. The combination index of 2.04 indicated that phenelzine had an antagonistic effect on APAP-induced toxicity. When compared to APAP alone, phenelzine treatment considerably reduced caspase 3/7 activation, cytochrome c release, and H2O2 generation. However, phenelzine had minimal effect on NO and GSH levels and did not alleviate ER stress. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed a potential connection between APAP toxicity and phenelzine metabolism. These findings suggested that phenelzine's protective effect against APAP-induced cytotoxicity could be attributed to the drug's capacity to reduce APAP-mediated apoptotic signaling.

Abstract
The discovery of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) in the 1950s marked a significant breakthrough in medicine, creating a powerful new category of drug: the antidepressant. In the years and decades that followed, MAOIs have been used in the treatment of several pathologies including Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and various cancers and as anti-inflammatory agents. Despite once enjoying widespread use, MAOIs have dwindled in popularity due to side effects, food-drug interactions, and the introduction of other antidepressant drug classes such as tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). The recently published prescriber's guide for the use of MAOIs in treating depression has kindled a resurgence of their use in the clinical space. It is therefore timely to review key aspects of the four "classic" MAOIs: high-dose selegiline, isocarboxazid, phenelzine, and tranylcypromine. This review discusses their chemical synthesis, metabolism, pharmacology, adverse effects, and the history and importance of these drugs within the broader field of chemical neuroscience.

Abstract
Time-dependent inactivation (TDI) of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes may result in clinical drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Therefore, designing out of CYP TDI prior to advancing a compound to clinical development is highly desirable. As TDI of CYP3A is a common occurrence in small molecule drug discovery, high-throughput methods are sought to help identify the mechanism of inactivation and enable design strategies to mitigate CYP3A TDI. CYP inactivation via modification or destruction of the prosthetic heme group results in loss of the ability of the enzyme to bind carbon monoxide. Additionally, formation of a tight binding complex with the heme iron, referred to as a metabolic intermediate (MI) complex, also results in enzyme inactivation. The methods described herein provide a high-throughput means of identifying and comparing compounds for their ability to inactivate via destruction/modification of the heme via loss of the ability to bind carbon monooxide, as well as via formation of an MI complex.

Abstract
This article is a clinical guide which discusses the "state-of-the-art" usage of the classic monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) antidepressants (phenelzine, tranylcypromine, and isocarboxazid) in modern psychiatric practice. The guide is for all clinicians, including those who may not be experienced MAOI prescribers. It discusses indications, drug-drug interactions, side-effect management, and the safety of various augmentation strategies. There is a clear and broad consensus (more than 70 international expert endorsers), based on 6 decades of experience, for the recommendations herein exposited. They are based on empirical evidence and expert opinion-this guide is presented as a new specialist-consensus standard. The guide provides practical clinical advice, and is the basis for the rational use of these drugs, particularly because it improves and updates knowledge, and corrects the various misconceptions that have hitherto been prominent in the literature, partly due to insufficient knowledge of pharmacology. The guide suggests that MAOIs should always be considered in cases of treatment-resistant depression (including those melancholic in nature), and prior to electroconvulsive therapy-while taking into account of patient preference. In selected cases, they may be considered earlier in the treatment algorithm than has previously been customary, and should not be regarded as drugs of last resort; they may prove decisively effective when many other treatments have failed. The guide clarifies key points on the concomitant use of incorrectly proscribed drugs such as methylphenidate and some tricyclic antidepressants. It also illustrates the straightforward "bridging" methods that may be used to transition simply and safely from other antidepressants to MAOIs.

Abstract
Most known probes for activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) use electrophilic groups that tag a single type of nucleophilic amino acid to identify cases in which its hyper-reactivity underpins function. Much important biochemistry derives from electrophilic enzyme cofactors, transient intermediates, and labile regulatory modifications, but ABPP probes for such species are underdeveloped. Here, we describe a versatile class of probes for this less charted hemisphere of the proteome. The use of an electron-rich hydrazine as the common chemical modifier enables covalent targeting of multiple, pharmacologically important classes of enzymes bearing diverse organic and inorganic cofactors. Probe attachment occurs by both polar and radicaloid mechanisms, can be blocked by molecules that occupy the active sites, and depends on the proper poise of the active site for turnover. These traits will enable the probes to be used to identify specific inhibitors of individual members of these multiple enzyme classes, making them uniquely versatile among known ABPP probes.

Abstract
AIMS Base dissociation constants of 30 model chemicals were investigated to constitute potential determinant factors predicting the contributions of flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs). BACKGROUND The contributions of FMOs to the metabolic elimination of new drug candidates could be underestimated under certain experimental conditions during drug development. OBJECTIVE A method for predicting metabolic sites and the contributions of FMOs to N-oxygenations is proposed using a molecular descriptor, the base dissociation constant (pKa base), which can be estimated in silico using commonly available chemoinformatic prediction systems. METHODS Model drugs and their oxidative pathways were surveyed in the literature to investigate the roles of FMOs in their N-oxygenations. The acid and base dissociation constants of the nitrogen moieties of 30 model substrates were estimated using well-established chemoinformatic software. RESULTS The base dissociation constants of 30 model chemicals were classified into two groups based on the reported optimal in vitro pH of 8.4 for FMO enzymes as a key determinant factor. Among 18 substrates (e.g., trimethylamine, benzydamine, and itopride) with pKa (base) values in the range of 8.4-9.8, all N-oxygenated metabolites were reported to be predominantly catalyzed by FMOs. Except for three cases (xanomeline; L-775,606; and tozasertib), the nine substrates with pKa (base) values in the range 2.7-7.9 were only moderately or minorly N-oxygenated by FMOs in addition to their major metabolic pathway of oxidation mediated by cytochrome P450s. N-Oxygenation of T-1032 (with a pKa of 4.8) is mediated predominantly by P450 3A5, but not by FMO1/3. CONCLUSION The predicted contributions of FMOs to the N-oxygenation of drug candidates can be simply estimated using classic base dissociation constants.

Abstract
Mechanism-based inactivation (MBI) refers to the metabolic bioactivation of a xenobiotic by cytochrome P450s to a highly reactive intermediate which subsequently binds to the enzyme and leads to the quasi-irreversible or irreversible inhibition. Xenobiotics, mainly drugs with specific functional units, are the major sources of MBI. Two possible consequences of MBI by medicinal compounds are drug-drug interaction and severe toxicity that are observed and highlighted by clinical experiments. Today almost all of these latent functional groups (e.g., thiophene, furan, alkylamines, etc.) are known, and their features and mechanisms of action, owing to the vast experimental and theoretical studies, are determined. In the past decade, molecular modeling techniques, mostly density functional theory, have revealed the most feasible mechanism that a drug undergoes by P450 enzymes to generate a highly reactive intermediate. In this review, we provide a comprehensive and detailed picture of computational advances toward the elucidation of the activation mechanisms of various known groups with MBI activity. To this aim, we briefly describe the computational concepts to carry out and analyze the mechanistic investigations, and then, we summarize the studies on compounds with known inhibition activity including thiophene, furan, alkylamines, terminal acetylene, etc. This study can be reference literature for both theoretical and experimental (bio)chemists in several different fields including rational drug design, the process of toxicity prevention, and the discovery of novel inhibitors and catalysts.

Abstract
Failure to evaluate actual toxicities of investigational molecules in drug discovery is majorly due to inadequate evaluation of their pharmacokinetics. Limitation of conventional drug metabolism profiling procedure demands advancement of existing approaches. Various techniques such as 3D cell culture system, bio microfluidic OoC model, sandwich culture model is in pipeline to be employed at their full potential in drug discovery phase. Although they outweigh the conventional techniques in various aspects, a more detailed exploration of applicability in terms of automation and high throughput analysis is required. This review extensively discusses various ongoing innovations in bioanalytical techniques. The review also proposed various scientific strategies to be adopted for prior assessment of interaction possibilities in translational drug discovery research.

Abstract
![]()
Herein we report in vitro metabolic stability
in human liver microsomes (HLMs), interactions with cytochrome P450
isoenzymes (CYP3A4, CYP2D6, and CYP2C9), and cytotoxicity analyses
on HEK-293, HepG2, Huh7, and WTIIB cell lines of our most recent multitarget
directed ligands PF9601N, ASS234, and contilisant. Based on these
results, we conclude that (1) PF9601N and contilisant are metabolically
stable in the HLM assay, in contrast to the very unstable ASS234;
(2) CYP3A4 activity was decreased by PF9601N at all the tested concentrations
and by ASS234 and contilisant only at the highest concentration; CYP2D6
activity was reduced by ASS234 at 1, 10, and 25 μM and by PF9601N
at 10 and 25 μM, whereas contilisant increased its activity
at the same concentrations; CYP2C9 was inhibited by the three compounds;
(3) contilisant did not affect cell viability in the widest range
of concentrations: up to 10 μM on HEK-293 cells, up to 30 μM
on Huh7 cells, up to 50 μM on HepG2 cells, and up to 30 or 100
μM on WTIIB cells. Based on these results, we selected contilisant
as a metabolically stable and nontoxic lead compound for further studies
in Alzheimer’s disease therapy.

Abstract
Adverse pharmacokinetic interactions between illicit substances and clinical drugs are of a significant health concern. Illicit substances are taken by healthy individuals as well as by patients with medical conditions such as mental illnesses, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, diabetes mellitus and cancer. Many individuals that use illicit substances simultaneously take clinical drugs meant for targeted treatment. This concomitant usage can lead to life-threatening pharmacokinetic interactions between illicit substances and clinical drugs. Optimal levels and activity of drug-metabolizing enzymes and drug-transporters are crucial for metabolism and disposition of illicit substances as well as clinical drugs. However, both illicit substances and clinical drugs can induce changes in the expression and/or activity of drug-metabolizing enzymes and drug-transporters. Consequently, with concomitant usage, illicit substances can adversely influence the therapeutic outcome of coadministered clinical drugs. Likewise, clinical drugs can adversely affect the response of coadministered illicit substances. While the interactions between illicit substances and clinical drugs pose a tremendous health and financial burden, they lack a similar level of attention as drug-drug, food-drug, supplement-drug, herb-drug, disease-drug, or other substance-drug interactions such as alcohol-drug and tobacco-drug interactions. This review highlights the clinical pharmacokinetic interactions between clinical drugs and commonly used illicit substances such as cannabis, cocaine and 3, 4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA). Rigorous efforts are warranted to further understand the underlying mechanisms responsible for these clinical pharmacokinetic interactions. It is also critical to extend the awareness of the life-threatening adverse interactions to both health care professionals and patients.

Abstract
We compared efavirenz pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters in children with tuberculosis (TB)/human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) coinfection on and off first-line antituberculosis therapy to that in HIV-infected children. Children 3 to 14 years old with HIV infection, with and without TB, were treated with standard efavirenz-based antiretroviral therapy without any efavirenz dose adjustments. The new World Health Organization-recommended antituberculosis drug dosages were used in the coinfected participants. Steady-state efavirenz concentrations after 4 weeks of antiretroviral therapy were measured using validated liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assays. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using noncompartmental analysis. Between groups, PK parameters were compared by Wilcoxon rank-sum test and within group by signed-rank test. Of the 105 participants, 43 (41.0%) had TB coinfection. Children with TB/HIV coinfection compared to those with HIV infection were younger, had lower median weight-for-age Z score, and received a higher median efavirenz weight-adjusted dose. Geometric mean (GM) efavirenz peak concentration (Cmax), concentration at 12 h (C12h), Cmin, and total area under the curve from time 0 to 24 h (AUC0-24h) values were similar in children with HIV infection and those with TB/HIV coinfection during anti-TB therapy. Geometric mean efavirenz C12h, Cmin, and AUC0-24h values were lower in TB/HIV-coinfected patients off anti-TB therapy than in the children with HIV infection or TB/HIV coinfection on anti-TB therapy. Efavirenz clearance was lower and AUC0-24h was higher on than in patients off anti-TB therapy. Reduced efavirenz clearance by first-line anti-TB therapy at the population level led to similar PK parameters in HIV-infected children with and without TB coinfection. Our findings do not support modification of efavirenz weight-band dosing guidelines based on TB coinfection status in children. (The study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov under registration number NCT01704144.).

Abstract
To date, all monotherapy clinical traumatic brain injury (TBI) trials have failed, and there are currently no Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved pharmacotherapies for the acute treatment of severe TBI. Due to the complex secondary injury cascade following injury, there is a need to develop multi-mechanistic combinational neuroprotective approaches for the treatment of acute TBI. As central mediators of the TBI secondary injury cascade, both mitochondria and lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes make promising therapeutic targets. Cyclosporine A (CsA), an FDA-approved immunosuppressant capable of inhibiting the mitochondrial permeability transition pore, and phenelzine (PZ), an FDA-approved monoamine oxidase inhibitor capable of scavenging neurotoxic lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes, have both been shown to be partially neuroprotective following experimental TBI. Therefore, it follows that the combination of PZ and CsA may enhance neuroprotection over either agent alone through the combining of distinct but complementary mechanisms of action. Additionally, as the first 72 h represents a critical time period following injury, it follows that continuous drug infusion over the first 72 h following injury may also lead to optimal neuroprotective effects. This is the first study to examine the effects of a 72 h subcutaneous continuous infusion of PZ, CsA, and the combination of these two agents on mitochondrial respiration, mitochondrial bound 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), and acrolein, and α-spectrin degradation 72 h following a severe controlled cortical impact injury in rats. Our results indicate that individually, both CsA and PZ are able to attenuate mitochondrial 4-HNE and acrolein, PZ is able to maintain mitochondrial respiratory control ratio and cytoskeletal integrity but together, PZ and CsA are unable to maintain neuroprotective effects.

Abstract
It has been over 50 years since a review has focused exclusively on the monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor tranylcypromine (TCP). A new review has therefore been conducted for TCP in two parts which are written to be read preferably in close conjunction: Part I - pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, drug interactions, toxicology; and Part II - clinical studies with meta-analysis of controlled studies in depression, practice of TCP treatment, place in therapy. Pharmacological data of this review part I characterize TCP as an irreversible and nonselective MAO-A/B inhibitor at low therapeutic doses of 20mg/day with supplementary norepinephrine reuptake inhibition at higher doses of 40-60mg/day. Serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine, and trace amines, such as the "endogenous amphetamine" phenylethylamine, are increased in brain, which leads to changes in neuroplasticity by e.g. increased neurotrophic growth factors and translates to reduced stress-induced hypersecretion of corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) and positive testing in animal studies of depression. TCP has a pharmacokinetic half-life (t1/2) of only 2h which is considerably lower than for most other antidepressant drugs. However, a very long pharmacodynamic half-life of about one week is found because of the irreversible MAO inhibition. New studies show that, except for cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2A6, no other drug metabolizing CYP-enzymes are inhibited by TCP at therapeutic doses which defines a low potential of pharmacokinetic interactions in the direction from TCP to other drugs. Insufficient information is available, however, for plasma concentrations of TCP influenced by comedication. More quantitative data are also needed for TCP metabolites such as p-hydroxytranylcypromine and N-acetyltranylcypromine. Pharmacodynamic drug interactions comprise for instance severe serotonin toxicity (SST) with serotonergic drugs and hypertensive crisis with indirect sympathomimetics. Because of the risk of severe food interaction, TCP treatment remains beset with the need for a mandatory tyramine-restricted diet. Toxicity in overdose is similar to amitriptyline and imipramine according to the distance of therapeutic to toxic doses. In conclusion, TCP is characterized by an exceptional pharmacology which is different to most other antidepressant drugs, and a more special evaluation of clinical efficacy and safety may therefore be needed.

Abstract
The actions of many drugs involve enzyme inhibition. This is exemplified by the inhibitors of monoamine oxidases (MAO) and the cholinsterases (ChE) that have been used for several pharmacological purposes. This review describes key principles and approaches for the reliable determination of enzyme activities and inhibition as well as some of the methods that are in current use for such studies with these two enzymes. Their applicability and potential pitfalls arising from their inappropriate use are discussed. Since inhibitor potency is frequently assessed in terms of the quantity necessary to give 50% inhibition (the IC50 value), the relationships between this and the mode of inhibition is also considered, in terms of the misleading information that it may provide. Incorporation of more than one functionality into the same molecule to give a multi-target-directed ligands (MTDLs) requires careful assessment to ensure that the specific target effects are not significantly altered and that the kinetic behavior remains as favourable with the MTDL as it does with the individual components. Such factors will be considered in terms of recently developed MTDLs that combine MAO and ChE inhibitory functions.

Abstract
1. A set of reference compounds for time-dependent inhibition (TDI) of cytochrome P450 with available literature data for kinact and KI was used to predict clinical implications using the GastroPlusTM software. Comparisons were made to in vivo literature interaction data. 2. The predicted AUC ratios (AUC+inhibitor/AUCcontrol) could be compared with the observed ratios from literature for all compounds with detailed information about in vivo administration, pharmacokinetics and in vivo interactions (N = 21). For this dataset, the difference between predicted and observed AUC ratios for interactions with midazolam was within twofold for all compounds except one (telaprevir, for which non-CYP-mediated metabolism likely plays a role after multiple dosing). 3. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the GastroPlusTM predictions using a binary classification as no-to-weak interaction versus moderate-to-strong interaction for all compounds with available in vivo interaction data, were 80%, 82% and 81%, respectively (N = 31). 4. As a result of our evaluations of the DDI module in GastroPlusTM, we have implemented an early TDI risk assessment decision tree for our drug discovery projects involving in vitro screening and early GastroPlusTM predictions. Shifted IC50 values are determined and kinact/KI estimated (by using a regression line established with in house-shifted IC50 values and literature kinact/KI ratios), followed by GastroPlusTM predictions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To extend our understanding of how interindividual variability mediates the efficacy of cancer treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS The kinetics of dacarbazine (DTIC) N-demethylation by the most frequent polymorphic variants of CYP1A1 (T461N, I462V) and CYP1A2 (F186L, D348N, I386F, R431W, R456H) were characterized, along with kinetic parameters for the O-deethylation of the prototypic CYP1A substrate 7-ethoxyresorufin, using recombinant protein expression and high-performance liquid chromatographic techniques. RESULTS A reduction of ∼30% in the catalytic efficiencies (measured as in-vitro intrinsic clearance, CLint) was observed for DTIC N-demethylation by the two CYP1A1 variants relative to wild type. Although a modest increase in the CLint value for DTIC N-demethylation was observed for the CYP1A2 D348N variant relative to the wild type, the CLint for the F186L variant was reduced and the I386F, R431W, and R456H variants all showed loss of catalytic function. CONCLUSION Comparison of the kinetic data for DTIC N-demethylation and 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylation indicated that alterations in the kinetic parameters (Km, Vmax, CLint) observed with each of the CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 polymorphic variants were substrate dependent. These data indicate that cancer patients treated with DTIC who possess any of the CYP1A1-T461N and I462V variants or the CYP1A2-F186L, D348N, I386F, R431W, and R456H variants are likely to have decreased prodrug activation, and hence may respond less favorably to DTIC treatment compared with individuals with wild-type CYP1A alleles.

Abstract
ABSTRACT
Monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors are frequently used for multidrug-resistant major depression, which is emerging as an epidemic in the modern era. Anesthesia during chronic use of MAO inhibitors is a matter of debate because of increased risk of drug interactions with various anesthetic drugs. Cardiac disorders contribute to perioperative and postoperative complications. Recent studies illustrate the safety of anesthesia without discontinuation of MAO inhibitors if sympathetic homeostasis is maintained and known drug interactions are avoided. In this case study, a 72-year-old male psychiatric patient on permanent treatment with tranylcypromine (30 mg/day) was admitted for bipolar hemiarthroplasty. After complete aseptic precautions, spinal anesthesia was achieved by 12.5 mg 0.5% heavy bupivacaine and 30 μg clonidine intrathecally. The anesthetic effect was adequate, but surgery was not completed timely and the effect of spinal anesthesia was weaned off, so general anesthesia was given and surgery was completed. There was no perioperative or postoperative complication. In conclusion, general or regional anesthesia for noncardiac surgery without discontinuation of MAO inhibitors may be safe after careful preoperative evaluation of the patient.

Abstract
Ethanol (alcohol) is one of the most widely used legal drugs in the world. Ethanol is metabolized by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2E1 drug-metabolizing enzyme that is also responsible for the biotransformation of xenobiotics and fatty acids. Drugs that inhibit ADH or CYP2E1 are the most likely theoretical compounds that would lead to a clinically significant pharmacokinetic interaction with ethanol, which include only a limited number of drugs. Acute ethanol primarily alters the pharmacokinetics of other drugs by changing the rate and extent of absorption, with more limited effects on clearance. Both acute and chronic ethanol use can cause transient changes to many physiologic responses in different organ systems such as hypotension and impairment of motor and cognitive functions, resulting in both pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions. Evaluating drug interactions with long-term use of ethanol is uniquely challenging. Specifically, it is difficult to distinguish between the effects of long-term ethanol use on liver pathology and chronic malnutrition. Ethanol-induced liver disease results in decreased activity of hepatic metabolic enzymes and changes in protein binding. Clinical studies that include patients with chronic alcohol use may be evaluating the effects of mild cirrhosis on liver metabolism, and not just ethanol itself. The definition of chronic alcohol use is very inconsistent, which greatly affects the quality of the data and clinical application of the results. Our study of the literature has shown that a significantly higher volume of clinical studies have focused on the pharmacokinetic interactions of ethanol and other drugs. The data on pharmacodynamic interactions are more limited and future research addressing pharmacodynamic interactions with ethanol, especially regarding the non-central nervous system effects, is much needed.

Abstract
Efavirenz is commonly used to treat patients coinfected with human immunodeficiency virus and tuberculosis. Previous clinical studies have observed paradoxically elevated efavirenz plasma concentrations in patients with the CYP2B6*6/*6 genotype (but not the CYP2B6*1/*1 genotype) during coadministration with the commonly used four-drug antituberculosis therapy. This study sought to elucidate the mechanism underlying this genotype-dependent drug-drug interaction. In vitro studies were conducted to determine whether one or more of the antituberculosis drugs (rifampin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, or ethambutol) potently inhibit efavirenz 8-hydroxylation by CYP2B6 or efavirenz 7-hydroxylation by CYP2A6, the main mechanisms of efavirenz clearance. Time- and concentration-dependent kinetics of inhibition by the antituberculosis drugs were determined using genotyped human liver microsomes (HLMs) and recombinant CYP2A6, CYP2B6.1, and CYP2B6.6 enzymes. Although none of the antituberculosis drugs evaluated at up to 10 times clinical plasma concentrations were found to inhibit efavirenz 8-hydroxylation by HLMs, both rifampin (apparent inhibition constant [Ki] = 368 μM) and pyrazinamide (Ki = 637 μM) showed relatively weak inhibition of efavirenz 7-hydroxylation. Importantly, isoniazid demonstrated potent time-dependent inhibition of efavirenz 7-hydroxylation in both HLMs (inhibitor concentration required for half-maximal inactivation [KI] = 30 μM; maximal rate constant of inactivation [kinact] = 0.023 min(-1)) and recombinant CYP2A6 (KI = 15 μM; kinact = 0.024 min(-1)) and also formed a metabolite intermediate complex consistent with mechanism-based inhibition. Selective inhibition of the CYP2B6.6 allozyme could not be demonstrated for any of the antituberculosis drugs using either recombinant enzymes or CYP2B6*6 genotype HLMs. In conclusion, the results of this study identify isoniazid as the most likely perpetrator of this clinically important drug-drug interaction through mechanism-based inactivation of CYP2A6.

Inhibition of human drug-metabolising cytochrome P450 and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase enzyme activities in vitro by uremic toxins. Eur J Clin Pharmacol 2014; 70:1097-106. [PMID: 24954688 DOI: 10.1007/s00228-014-1709-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 57] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2014] [Accepted: 06/11/2014] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential inhibitory effects of uremic toxins on the major human hepatic drug-metabolising cytochrome P450 (CYP) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzymes in vitro. METHODS Benzyl alcohol, p-cresol, indoxyl sulfate, hippuric acid and a combination of the four uremic toxins were co-incubated with human liver microsomes and selective probe substrates for the major human drug-metabolising CYP and UGT enzymes. The percentage of enzyme inhibition was calculated by measuring the rates of probe metabolite formation in the absence and presence of the uremic toxins. Kinetics studies were conducted to evaluate the K i values and mechanism(s) of the inhibition of CYP2E1, CYP3A4, UGT1A1 and UGT1A9 by p-cresol. RESULTS The individual uremic toxins inhibited CYP and UGT enzymes to a variable extent. p-Cresol was the most potent individual inhibitor, producing >50% inhibition of CYP2E1, CYP3A4, UGT1A1, UGT1A9 and UGT2B7 at a concentration of 100 μM. The greatest inhibition was observed with UGT1A9. p-Cresol was shown to be an uncompetitive inhibitor of UGT1A9, with unbound K i values of 9.1 and 2.5 μM in the absence and presence of bovine serum albumin (BSA), respectively. K i values for p-cresol inhibition of human liver microsomal CYP2E1, CYP3A4 and UGT1A1 ranged from 43 to 89 μM. A combination of the four uremic toxins produced >50% decreases in the activities of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, UGT1A1, UGT1A9 and UGT2B7. CONCLUSIONS Uremic toxins may contribute to decreases in drug hepatic clearance in individuals with kidney disease by inhibition of hepatic drug-metabolising enzymes.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Isoniazid (INH)-induced hepatotoxicity remains one of the most common causes of drug-induced idiosyncratic liver injury and liver failure. This form of liver injury is not believed to be immune-mediated because it is not usually associated with fever or rash, does not recur more rapidly on rechallenge, and previous studies have failed to identify anti-INH antibodies (Abs). In this study, we found Abs present in sera of 15 of 19 cases of INH-induced liver failure. Anti-INH Abs were present in 8 sera; 11 had anti-cytochrome P450 (CYP)2E1 Abs, 14 had Abs against CYP2E1 modified by INH, 14 had anti-CYP3A4 antibodies, and 10 had anti-CYP2C9 Abs. INH was found to form covalent adducts with CYP2E1, CYP3A4, and CYP2C9. None of these Abs were detected in sera from INH-treated controls without significant liver injury. The presence of a range of antidrug and autoAbs has been observed in other drug-induced liver injury that is presumed to be immune mediated. CONCLUSION These data provide strong evidence that INH induces an immune response that causes INH-induced liver injury.

Abstract
The nitrofuran antimicrobial agent, furazolidone (FZ), is still used in veterinary medicine in some countries in the Middle and Far Eastern countries. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of successive bolus doses of FZ and its metabolite 3-amino-2-oxazolidinone (AOZ) on cytochrome P450 (CYP)-related activities in the livers of rats and chickens. Female Wistar rats and white Leghorn chickens were orally administered FZ once a day for 4 consecutive days. FZ-treated chickens showed an increase in multiple CYP-related activities, however, rats treated with FZ did not show these changes. In chickens, treatment with FZ also induced production of microsomal CYP2C6-like apoprotein. The present study demonstrated that FZ caused a multiple-type induction of CYP-related activities in chickens, but not in rats.

Abstract
Histamine, serotonin and dopamine are biogenic amines involved in intercellular communication with multiple effects on human pathophysiology. They are products of two highly homologous enzymes, histidine decarboxylase and l-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase, and transmit their signals through different receptors and signal transduction mechanisms. Polyamines derived from ornithine (putrescine, spermidine and spermine) are mainly involved in intracellular effects related to cell proliferation and death mechanisms. This review summarizes structural and functional evidence for interactions between components of all these amine metabolic and signalling networks (decarboxylases, transporters, oxidases, receptors etc.) at cellular and tissue levels, distinct from nervous and neuroendocrine systems, where the crosstalk among these amine-related components can also have important pathophysiological consequences. The discussion highlights aspects that could help to predict and discuss the effects of intervention strategies.

Isoniazid inhibits the heme-based reactivity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis truncated hemoglobin N. PLoS One 2013; 8:e69762.

Abstract
Isoniazid represents a first-line anti-tuberculosis medication in prevention and treatment. This prodrug is activated by a mycobacterial catalase-peroxidase enzyme called KatG in Mycobacterium tuberculosis), thereby inhibiting the synthesis of mycolic acid, required for the mycobacterial cell wall. Moreover, isoniazid activation by KatG produces some radical species (e.g., nitrogen monoxide), that display anti-mycobacterial activity. Remarkably, the ability of mycobacteria to persist in vivo in the presence of reactive nitrogen and oxygen species implies the presence in these bacteria of (pseudo-)enzymatic detoxification systems, including truncated hemoglobins (trHbs). Here, we report that isoniazid binds reversibly to ferric and ferrous M. tuberculosis trHb type N (or group I; Mt-trHbN(III) and Mt-trHbN(II), respectively) with a simple bimolecular process, which perturbs the heme-based spectroscopic properties. Values of thermodynamic and kinetic parameters for isoniazid binding to Mt-trHbN(III) and Mt-trHbN(II) are K = (1.1±0.1)×10−4 M, kon = (5.3±0.6)×103 M−1 s−1 and koff = (4.6±0.5)×10−1 s−1; and D = (1.2±0.2)×10−3 M, don = (1.3±0.4)×103 M−1 s−1, and doff = 1.5±0.4 s−1, respectively, at pH 7.0 and 20.0°C. Accordingly, isoniazid inhibits competitively azide binding to Mt-trHbN(III) and Mt-trHbN(III)-catalyzed peroxynitrite isomerization. Moreover, isoniazid inhibits Mt-trHbN(II) oxygenation and carbonylation. Although the structure of the Mt-trHbN-isoniazid complex is not available, here we show by docking simulation that isoniazid binding to the heme-Fe atom indeed may take place. These data suggest a direct role of isoniazid to impair fundamental functions of mycobacteria, e.g. scavenging of reactive nitrogen and oxygen species, and metabolism.

Abstract
Treatment of tuberculous meningitis or tuberculoma has become complicated because of adverse drug interactions found amongst antitubercular and anticonvulsant drugs. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of simultaneously administered isoniazid (300 mg/day) and phenytoin (300 mg/day) on 60 patients with tuberculous meningitis or tuberculoma having seizures. Plasma samples were analyzed for isoniazid, acetylated-isoniazid (AcINH) and phenytoin levels by high performance liquid chromatography at 3h of drugs administration and patients were classified as rapid or slow acetylator on the basis of metabolic ratio of isoniazid (Rm) and percentage of acetylated-isoniazid (%AcINH). Out of 60 patients studied, 23 were slow acetylators and 37 were rapid acetylators. Slow acetylators revealed higher plasma isoniazid levels and lower plasma AcINH levels, metabolic ratio and %AcINH as compared to rapid acetylators. Plasma phenytoin levels were found to be significantly higher (above therapeutic range) in slow acetylators as compared to rapid acetylators. Plasma phenytoin concentration was moderately strong, negatively correlated with metabolic ratio (r=-0.439, P<0.001) and %AcINH (r=-0.729, P<0.001). Eight comatose patients (34.8%) also showed significantly higher plasma phenytoin levels. Our results suggest that assessment of acetylator status and plasma phenytoin level is critical for dose optimization of isoniazid and phenytoin and to predict the patients at risk of intoxication.

Abstract
Selective inhibitors of CYP24A1 represent an important synthetic target in a search for novel vitamin D compounds of therapeutic value. In the present work, we show the synthesis and biological properties of two novel side chain modified 2-methylene-19-nor-1,25(OH)(2)D(3) analogs, the 22-imidazole-1-yl derivative 2 (VIMI) and the 25-N-cyclopropylamine compound 3 (CPA1), which were efficiently prepared in convergent syntheses utilizing the Lythgoe type Horner-Wittig olefination reaction. When tested in a cell-free assay, both compounds were found to be potent competitive inhibitors of CYP24A1, with the cyclopropylamine analog 3 exhibiting an 80-1 selective inhibition of CYP24A1 over CYP27B1. Addition of 3 to a mouse osteoblast culture sustained the level of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3), further demonstrating its effectiveness in CYP24A1 inhibition. Importantly, the in vitro effects on human promyeloid leukemia (HL-60) cell differentiation by 3 were nearly identical to those of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and in vivo the compound showed low calcemic activity. Finally, the results of preliminary theoretical studies provide useful insights to rationalize the ability of analog 3 to selectively inhibit the cytochrome P450 isoform CYP24A1.

Abstract
The human CYP2A6 enzyme metabolises several xenobiotics including nicotine, the addictive component in tobacco. Reduced activity of CYP2A6, either for genetic reasons or by administering inhibitors of CYP2A6, reduces tobacco smoking. The aim was to design novel inhibitors of CYP2A6 using 3D-QSAR analysis combined with virtual screening. A 3D-QSAR model was utilised to identify the most important features of the inhibitors, and this knowledge was used to design inhibitors for CYP2A6. Chemical database screening yielded several potent inhibitor candidates such as alkylamine derivatives (compound no. 5, IC(50)=0.1 μM) and 1-benzothiophene-3-carbaldehyde that can be used as lead compounds in the development of drugs for smoking reduction therapy.

Abstract
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAO-I) belong to the earliest drugs tried in Parkinson's disease (PD). They have been used with or without levodopa (L-DOPA). Non-selective MAO-I due to their side-effect/adverse reaction profile, like tranylcypromine have limited use in the treatment of depression in PD, while selective, reversible MAO-A inhibitors are recommended due to their easier clinical handling. For the treatment of akinesia and motor fluctuations selective irreversible MAO-B inhibitors selegiline and rasagiline are recommended. They are safe and well tolerated at the recommended daily doses. Their main differences are related to (1) metabolism, (2) interaction with CYP-enzymes and (3) quantitative properties at the molecular biological/genetic level. Rasagiline is more potent in clinical practise and has a hypothesis driven more favourable side effect/adverse reaction profile due to its metabolism to aminoindan. Both selegiline and rasagiline have a neuroprotective and neurorestaurative potential. A head-to head clinical trial would be of utmost interest from both the clinical outcome and a hypothesis-driven point of view. Selegiline is available as tablet and melting tablet for PD and as transdermal selegiline for depression, while rasagiline is marketed as tablet for PD. In general, the clinical use of MAO-I nowadays is underestimated. There should be more efforts to evaluate their clinical potency as antidepressants and antidementive drugs in addition to the final proof of their disease-modifying potential. In line with this are recent innovative developments of MAO-I plus inhibition of acetylcholine esterase for Alzheimer's disease as well as combined MAO-I and iron chelation for PD.

Abstract
Recent advances clarifying the pharmacology and interactions of irreversible nonselective monoamine oxidase inhibitors that have not been considered in depth lately are discussed. These new data elucidate aspects of enzyme inhibition and pharmacokinetic interactions involving amine oxidases, cytochrome P450 enzymes, aminotransferases (transaminases), and decarboxylases (carboxy-lyases) and the effects of tyramine. Phenelzine and tranylcypromine remain widely available, and many publications have data relevant to this review. Their effect on CYP 450 enzymes is less than many newer drugs. Tranylcypromine only inhibits CYP 450 2A6 (selectively and potently). Phenelzine has no reported interactions, but, like isoniazid, weakly and irreversibly inhibits CYP 450 2C19 and 3A4 in vitro. It might possibly be implicated in interactions (as isoniazid is). Phenelzine has some clinically relevant inhibitory effects on amine oxidases, aminotransferases, and decarboxylases, and it lowers pyridoxal phosphate levels. It commonly causes pyridoxal deficiency, weight gain, sedation, and sexual dysfunction, but only rarely causes hepatic damage and failure, or neurotoxicity. The adverse effects and difficulties with monoamine oxidase inhibitors are less than previously believed or estimated, including a lower risk of hypertension, because the tyramine content in foods is now lower. Potent norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors have a strong protective effect against tyramine-induced hypertension. The newly discovered trace amine-associated receptors probably mediate the pressor response. The therapeutic potential of tranylcypromine and L-dopa in depression and Parkinson disease is worthy of reassessment. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are not used to an extent proportionate with their benefits; medical texts and doctors' knowledge require a major update to reflect the evidence of recent advances.

Abstract
Many clinically relevant drug interactions involving cytochrome P450 inhibition are mediated by mechanism-based inactivation (MBI). Time-dependent inhibition is one of the major features distinguishing between reversible inhibition and MBI. It thus provides a useful screening approach for early drug interaction risk assessment. Accordingly, we developed an easy and informative fluorometric method for the assessment of CYP2C19 enzyme inactivation kinetics. Dibenzylfluorescein (DBF) is widely used as a profluorescent probe substrate for P450 activity and inhibition assays, but its use has been considered to be limited to traditional endpoint assays. We monitored CYP2C19-catalyzed metabolism of DBF using synthesized fluorescein benzyl ester and fluorescein benzyl ether along with commercially available fluorescein as intermediate standards. Furthermore, we demonstrated the use of DBF in a kinetic assay as a progress curve analysis for straightforward determination of whether a compound is a time-dependent inactivator of CYP2C19. The recombinant human CYP2C19 inactivation kinetics of isoniazid, ticlopidine, and tranylcypromine were evaluated, and their key kinetic parameters were measured from the same experiment. The known mechanism-based inactivators, isoniazid and ticlopidine, exhibited clear time-dependent inactivation with K(I) and k(inact) values of 250.5 ± 34 μM and 0.137 ± 0.006 min(-1) and 1.96 ± 0.5 μM and 0.135 ± 0.009 min(-1), respectively. Tranylcypromine did not display any time-dependent inhibition, which is consistent with its reported mechanism of competitive inhibition. In summary, DBF is suitable for use in the progress curve analysis approach and can be used as an initial screen to identify compounds that require more detailed investigations in drug interaction optimization.

Abstract
High-level heterologous expression of human 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1) in Escherichia coli was attained via a fusion construct by appending the mature CYP24A1 without the leader sequence to the maltose binding protein (MBP). Facile purification was achieved efficiently through affinity chromatography and afforded fully functional enzyme of near homogeneity, with a k(cat) of 0.12 min(-1) and a K(M) of 0.19 μM toward 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) [1,25(OH)(2)D(3)]. A convenient and reliable cell-free assay was established and used to screen vitamin D analogues with potential inhibitory properties toward CYP24A1. Some of the compounds exhibited potent inhibition with K(I) values as low as 0.021 μM. Furthermore, TS17 and CPA1 exhibited superior specificity toward CYP24A1 over 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) 1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1), with selectivities of 39 and 80, respectively. Addition of TS17 or CPA1 to a mouse osteoblast culture sustained the level of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) in the medium. Their activities in vitamin D receptor (VDR) binding, CYP24A1 transcription, and HL-60 cell differentiation were evaluated as well.

Abstract
Human CYP1A2 is one of the major CYPs in human liver and metabolizes a number of clinical drugs (e.g., clozapine, tacrine, tizanidine, and theophylline; n > 110), a number of procarcinogens (e.g., benzo[a]pyrene and aromatic amines), and several important endogenous compounds (e.g., steroids). CYP1A2 is subject to reversible and/or irreversible inhibition by a number of drugs, natural substances, and other compounds. The CYP1A gene cluster has been mapped on to chromosome 15q24.1, with close link between CYP1A1 and 1A2 sharing a common 5'-flanking region. The human CYP1A2 gene spans almost 7.8 kb comprising seven exons and six introns and codes a 515-residue protein with a molecular mass of 58,294 Da. The recently resolved CYP1A2 structure has a relatively compact, planar active site cavity that is highly adapted for the size and shape of its substrates. The architecture of the active site of 1A2 is characterized by multiple residues on helices F and I that constitutes two parallel substrate binding platforms on either side of the cavity. A large interindividual variability in the expression and activity of CYP1A2 has been observed, which is largely caused by genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors (e.g., smoking). CYP1A2 is primarily regulated by the aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and CYP1A2 is induced through AhR-mediated transactivation following ligand binding and nuclear translocation. Induction or inhibition of CYP1A2 may provide partial explanation for some clinical drug interactions. To date, more than 15 variant alleles and a series of subvariants of the CYP1A2 gene have been identified and some of them have been associated with altered drug clearance and response and disease susceptibility. Further studies are warranted to explore the clinical and toxicological significance of altered CYP1A2 expression and activity caused by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors.

Abstract
Abstract A procoagulant effect may occur when enzymatic inhibitors of CYP2C9, 1A2, or 3A4 are therapeutically coadministered with warfarin. To our knowledge, there have been no case reports of such an interaction between warfarin and selegiline. We describe a case of a 49-year-old female who was taking warfarin for prevention of a venous thromboembolism after orthopedic surgery. During routine follow-up, the patient's international normalized ratio (INR) suddenly elevated to 9.0. Her INR had been subtherapeutic for 2 months prior despite escalating doses of warfarin. The only identifiable change to the patient's lifestyle or medications was the initiation of transdermal selegiline 5 days prior to this supratherapeutic INR. Recent laboratory tests revealed no significant abnormalities, with the exception of slightly depressed serum albumin. Her warfarin was held for 2 days, oral phytonadione 2.5 mg was given, and selegiline was held. The Drug Interaction Probability Scale revealed a probable drug-drug interaction between warfarin and selegiline. The likely mechanism of this interaction is selegiline-mediated moderate inhibition of CYP1A2 and weak or competitive inhibition of 2C9 and 3A4. Clinicians should be hypervigilant to this probable drug-drug interaction when initiating either therapy in a patient maintained on the opposing drug.

Abstract
The irreversible inhibition of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes can cause significant drug-drug interactions (DDIs). The formation of metabolites is fundamental for the inactivation of CYP enzymes. Of the 19 CYP enzyme inactivators for which the mechanism of action has been established, 10 have circulating metabolites, which are on the metabolic pathway to inactivation of the CYP enzyme. Because inactivation of CYP enzymes usually requires multiple metabolic steps, the prediction of interactions between metabolites and CYPs in vivo may require complex models and the availability of data generated in vitro from each metabolite. Data discussed in this review suggest that circulating metabolites are more important in CYP inhibition in vivo than has been acknowledged.

Abstract
We established a mechanism-based inhibition cocktail-substrate assay system using human liver microsomes and drug-probe substrates that enabled simultaneous estimation of the inactivation of main cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A, in drug metabolism. The inactivation kinetic parameters of typical mechanism-based inhibitors, tienilic acid, paroxetine, and erythromycin, for each enzyme in the cocktail-substrate assay were almost in agreement with the values obtained in the single-substrate assay. Using this system, we confirmed that multiple CYP inactivation caused by mechanism-based inhibitors such as isoniazid and amiodarone could be detected simultaneously. Mechanism-based inhibition potency can be estimated by the determination of the observed inactivation rate constants (k(obs)) at a single concentration of test compounds because the k(obs) of eleven CYP3A inactivators at 10 microM in the assay system nearly corresponded to k(inact)/K(I) values, an indicator of a compound's propensity to alter the activity of a CYP in vivo (R(2) = 0.97). Therefore, this cocktail-substrate assay is considered to be a powerful tool for evaluating mechanism-based inhibition at an early stage of drug development.

Abstract
In addition to delivering nicotine, tobacco smoke also inhibits monoamine oxidase (MAO). Although MAO inhibitors (MAOIs) can increase nicotine self-administration in rodents, the effects of MAOIs on the discriminative stimulus effect of nicotine are not known. This study examined the effects of three MAOIs (phenelzine, clorgyline and pargyline) with varying selectivity for MAOA and MAOB in the nicotine drug discrimination procedure in rats. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were trained to discriminate nicotine (0.3 mg/kg, subcutaneously) from saline in a standard, two-lever food-reinforced operant task. Once the discrimination was acquired, the ability of each MAOI to substitute for or alter the discriminative stimulus effect of nicotine was determined. In substitution tests, nicotine (0.03-0.3 mg/kg) produced full, dose-dependent substitution. Although the selective MAOA inhibitor clorgyline (3-56 mg/kg) and the selective MAOB inhibitor pargyline (3-56 mg/kg) did not elicit any nicotine-appropriate responding, partial substitution was obtained with the nonselective MAO inhibitor phenelzine (1-17 mg/kg). Phenelzine (10 mg/kg) also enhanced the discriminative stimulus effect of a low dose of nicotine (0.056 mg/kg) and prolonged the time course effect of the nicotine-training dose. These findings indicate that concomitant inhibition of MAOA and MAOB can enhance the discriminative stimulus effect of nicotine in rats.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate time-dependent inhibition (TDI) of human drug metabolizing CYP enzymes by tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs). METHODS CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP3A/CYP3A4 activities were investigated following co- and preincubation with TCAs using human liver microsomes (HLM) and human recombinant CYP proteins (expressed in Escherichia coli) as the enzyme sources. A two-step incubation method was employed to examine the in vitro mechanism-based inactivation (MBI) criteria. Potential metabolite-intermediate complex (MIC) formation was studied by spectral analysis. RESULTS TCAs generally exhibited significant TDI of recombinant CYP1A2, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 (>10% positive inhibition differences between co- and preincubation conditions). TDI of recombinant CYP2C9 was minor (<10%), and was minor or absent in experiments utilizing recombinant CYP3A4 or HLM as the enzyme sources. Where observed, TDI of recombinant CYP occurred via alkylamine MIC formation, but evidence to support similar behaviour in HLM was limited. Indeed, only secondary amine TCAs reduced the apparent P450 content of HLM (3-6%) consistent with complexation. As a representative TCA, nortriptyline fulfilled the in vitro MBI criteria using recombinant CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 (K(I) and k(inact) values of 4 microm and 0.19 min(-1), and 70 microm and 0.06 min(-1)), but not with the human liver microsomal enzymes. CONCLUSIONS TCAs appear to have minimal potential for MBI of human liver microsomal CYP enzymes involved in drug metabolism. HLM and recombinant CYP (expressed in E. coli) are not equivalent enzyme sources for evaluating the TDI associated with some drugs.

Abstract
Mechanism-based inactivation (MBI) of human drug-metabolising CYP enzymes is an important consideration in the preclinical ADME evaluation of new drug candidates. In this report, the in vitro approaches used to investigate MBI of CYP enzymes are described, with an emphasis on the characterisation required to assess potential drug-drug interactions. Recent disparities in MBI data between in vitro test systems are also reviewed, highlighting the limitations of Escherichia coli-expressed human recombinant CYP in the prediction of drug-drug interactions that arise via MBI.

Abstract
AIMS To identify the human cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes responsible for the formation of the 6beta-hydroxy (6beta-OHGz), 7beta-hydroxy (7beta-OHGz) and hydroxymethyl (MeOH-Gz) metabolites of gliclizide (Gz). METHODS 6beta-OHGz, 7beta-OHGz and MeOH-Gz formation by human liver microsomes and a panel of recombinant human P450s was measured using a high-performance liquid chromatography procedure, and the kinetics of metabolite formation was determined for each pathway. Effects of prototypic CYP enzyme selective inhibitors were characterized for each of the microsomal metabolic pathways. RESULTS Microsomes from six human livers converted Gz to its 6beta-OHGz, 7beta-OHGz, and MeOH-Gz metabolites, with respective mean (+/- SD) K(m) values of 461 +/- 139, 404 +/- 143 and 334 +/- 75 microm and mean V(max) values of 130 +/- 55, 82 +/- 31 and 268 +/- 115 pmol min(-1) mg(-1), respectively. V(max)/K(m) ratios for the microsomal reactions parallelled relative metabolite formation in vivo. Sulfaphenazole inhibited microsomal 6beta-OHGz, 7beta-OHGz and MeOH-Gz formation by 87, 83 and 64%, respectively, whereas S-mephenytoin caused significant inhibition (48%) of only MeOH-Gz formation. Recombinant CYP2C9, CYP2C18 and CYP2C19 catalysed all hydroxylation pathways, whereas CYP2C8 formed only 6beta-OHGz and 7beta-OHGz. CONCLUSION Taken together, the results indicate that CYP2C9 is the major contributor to Gz metabolic clearance, although CYP2C19 may also be involved in MeOH-Gz formation (the major metabolic pathway). Factors known to influence CYP2C9 activity will provide the main source of variability in Gz pharmacokinetics.
