The cytochrome P450 enzymes constitute a diverse superfamily of haem-containing proteins that catalyse key oxidative reactions in steroid biosynthesis. In the steroidogenic pathway, these enzymes ...
Cytochrome P450 enzymes constitute a highly diverse superfamily that is pivotal in the metabolism of endogenous and exogenous compounds. In the context of cancer research, members such as CYP1B1 and ...
Cytochrome P450 Defects Linked to Opioid Regimen Efficacy Most patients with multiple defects of the cytochrome P450 system naturally gravitated toward an opioid regimen primarily metabolized through ...
Phase I study of docetaxel and temsirolimus in refractory solid tumors. Background: Interactions of cytochrome P450 (CYP), especially CYP3A4, between chemotherapy agents and other xenobiotics can ...
To boost the statistical power to find Alzheimer’s genes, geneticists often use endophenotypes—measurable characteristics of the disease—in place of clinical diagnoses. Case in point: A genome-wide ...
Background: Clopidogrel is a prodrug requiring metabolism by cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) isoenzymes, including CYP3A5, in order to be active. It is controversial whether clopidogrel interacts with ...
Drugs are metabolized in the liver using several enzyme-catalyzed processes. These enzymes are collectively referred to as the hepatic microsomal enzyme system, and they are usually present in the ...
