With early assessment of inhibitory properties of drug candidates and their circulating metabolites toward cytochrome P450 enzymes, drug attrition, especially later in the drug development process, can be decreased. Here we describe the development and validation of an at-line nanofractionation

Epidemiological studies emphasize the possible role of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in obesity and the metabolic syndrome. These pollutants are stored in adipose tissue (AT). Our aim was to study the effects of POPs on human adipose cells and rodent

Ageing is a complex and multifactorial process resulting in several functional and aesthetic changes to the skin. We found that α-Naphthoflavone (α-NF) concentration-dependently induced pro-collagen type I protein expression and inhibited MMP-1 protein expression, in both normal and UVB-irradiated cells.

We have characterized previously a class of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) ligand termed selective AHR modulators (SAhRMs). SAhRMs exhibit anti-inflammatory properties, including suppression of cytokine-mediated acute phase genes (e.g., Saa1), through dissociation of non-dioxin-response element (DRE) AHR activity from DRE-dependent

The atomic structure of human P450 1B1 was determined by x-ray crystallography to 2.7 Å resolution with α-naphthoflavone (ANF) bound in the active site cavity. Although the amino acid sequences of human P450s 1B1 and 1A2 have diverged significantly, both
