Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The safety of herbal supplements (HS) remains uncertain, and their use occasionally bring adverse effects on the liver via hepatic drug-metabolizing system. We aimed to establish risk assessment methods to ensure safety of HS using kava (Piper methysticum) as a model substance of harmful products. In this study, we investigated the environmental chemical-like action inducing expression of CYP1A1 by analysis of interactions between herbal ingredients and CYP1A1, and measurement of enzyme activity and mRNA expression of CYP1A1 in vitro and in vivo. The results indicated that some herbal ingredients have actions similar to environmental chemical substances, and also attention must be paid to interaction between HS and environmental chemical substances. This study suggests the usefulness and validity of risk assessment methods based on environmental chemical-like action.
