Outline of Final Research Achievements

To investigate the respective roles of cytochromes P450 1A2, 2C9 and 3A4/5 in drug oxidation in human livers, the in vivo pharmacokinetics of coumarin, S-warfarin and diclofenac, and dexamethasone were analyzed after intravenous administrations in chimeric mice that had been transplanted with human hepatocytes. P450 1A2, 2C9, and 3A4/5 were metabolically inactivated in the humanized mice by orally pretreating them with furafylline, tienilic acid, and azamulin, respectively. After intravenous administration of probe drugs, significant differences in the concentration-time profiles of the primary metabolites coumarin 3,4-epoxide (as estimated by the levels of o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid), 7-hydroxywarfarin and 4’-hydroxydiclofenac, and 6β-hydroxydexamethasone between untreated mice and mice treated with suppressors were observed. These presumably resulted from suppressed P450 1A2, 2C9, and 3A4/5 activities in the primary oxidative metabolism in vivo.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

特定のP450 分子種を時間依存型阻害薬(生成代謝物による酵素との共有結合による)で不活化したヒト肝ミクロゾームと対照(非処置)肝ミクロゾームを用い、各P450 分子種の薬物代謝反応へのin vitro 寄与率を簡便に検討する手法が有効であることを明らかにした。さらに本手法をヒト型モデル動物でも活用し、P450 1A2, 2C9と3A4/5酵素のin vivo薬物体内動態での寄与を調べる手法を樹立した。
