In vitro methods were used to identify the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme(s) involved in S-mephenytoin N-demethylation. S-Mephenytoin (200 microM) was incubated with human liver microsomes, and nirvanol formation was quantitated by reversed-phase HPLC. S-Mephenytoin N-demethylase activity in a panel of

The pharmacodynamics of rat hepatic cytochrome P450 2B (P450 2B) induction by phenobarbital (PB) and two structural congeners, dl-5-ethyl-5-phenylhydantoin (EPH) and dl-5-ethyl-5-phenyloxazolidinedione (EPO), were investigated. The in vivo induction of P450 2B was probed in F344/NCr rats by measuring immunoreactive

The abilities of structural congeners of phenobarbital to induce immunoreactive hepatic cytochrome P450 2B (CYP2B) protein and associated catalytic activity (benzyloxyresorufin O-dealkylation) in the male B6C3F1 mouse were examined. Interspecies differences in inducing ability were examined through comparison of the

We tested the ability of human liver microsomes (HLMs) and recombinant human cytochrome P450 (CYP or P450) isoforms to catalyze the N-demethylation of nirvanol-free (S)-mephenytoin [(S)-MP] in vitro. In mixed HLMs, the kinetics of (S)-MP N-demethylation suggested two contributing activities.

Inherited deficiency in mephenytoin hydroxylation was observed in a family study. It is important that the propositus was of the extensive metabolizer phenotype for the genetically controlled hydroxylation of debrisoquine. Thus, a genetic polymorphism of drug hydroxylation was suspected for
