CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 mRNA expression profile in the human fetus [PDF]
CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 are involved in the inactivation of several NSAIDs, including ibuprofen. CYP2C9 is the major form in human liver whereas CYP2C8 has been proposed to be the main CYP2C enzyme in fetal liver.

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of rosiglitazone in elation to CYP2C8 genotype
Objectives: Rosiglitazone is metabolically inactivated predominantly via the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme CYP2C8. The functional impact of the CYP2C8 3 allele coding for the Arg139Lys and Lys399Arg amino acid substitutions is controversial.

Effect of the CYP2C8 genotype on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of repaglinide
The pharmacokinetics of repaglinide shows pronounced interindividual variability, for which several reasons have been considered, including interactions with drugs inhibiting CYP2C8 and CYP2C8 genetic polymorphism.

Investigation of Thymoquinone as an Inhibitor of CYP2C8/EET Axis. [PDF]
Cytochrome P450 2C8 (CYP2C8) is known to cause drug interactions via pharmacokinetic alterations of drugs, but it’s also explicitly crucial for endogenous metabolism, like the generation of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) from arachidonic acid.
