Efavirenz and CYP2C9 Genetic Polymorphisms Reduce CYP2C9 Activity in Healthy Participants
ABSTRACT Efavirenz's effects on cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) activity have not been formally characterized in vivo. We conducted the first clinical drug–drug interaction (DDI) study to test the effect of chronic efavirenz dosing on CYP2C9 activity, using tolbutamide as a selective probe.

A key event in the process of rat but not human liver carcinogenesis caused by constitutive androstane receptor activators such as phenobarbital (PB) is hepatocyte proliferation, but the mechanism(s) underpinning this response is not fully understood ...

Dual action of oestrogens on the mouse constitutive androstane receptor [PDF]
mCAR (mouse constitutive androstane receptor; NR1I3) controls the expression of cytochrome P450 as well as other enzymes involved in drug and steroid metabolism. The high basal activity of mCAR can be modulated by inhibitory steroids related to androstenol and by activating xenobiotic chemicals such as 1,4-bis-[2-(3,5-dichloropyridyloxy)]benzene and ...

The Effect of Ecopipam on the Pharmacokinetics of Concomitant Medications
ABSTRACT Ecopipam is a first‐in‐class dopamine D1 receptor antagonist under investigation for the treatment of Tourette syndrome. This open‐label, fixed‐sequence, three‐cohort study evaluated whether ecopipam induces or inhibits cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4, organic anion‐transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1, and p ...

Constitutive androstane receptor mediates PCB-induced disruption of retinoid homeostasis. [PDF]
Environmental exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is associated with an increased risk of incidence of metabolic disease, however the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon are not fully understood. Our study provides new insights into molecular interactions between PCBs and retinoids (vitamin A and its metabolites) by defining a role
