Tissue-specific variability in protein expression of cytochrome P450 and glutathione S-transferase isoenzymes in non-small cell lung carcinoma [PDF]
Earlier tissue-based studies report heterogeneous CYP and GST protein expression in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but simultaneous assessment of phase I and II enzymes in paired tumour and peripheral normal tissues remains limited and their ...

Liver-Directed Cyp2e1 RNA Interference Attenuates Hepatotoxicity Induced by Triptolide, a Bioactive Diterpenoid from Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f. [PDF]
Objectives: Triptolide (TP), a bioactive diterpenoid from Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f., has pharmacological activity, but repeated exposure is limited by hepatotoxicity. CYP2E1 is a hepatic metabolic-redox enzyme linked to oxidative liver injury. This

Methodology to Assay CYP2E1 Mixed Function Oxidase Catalytic Activity and Its Induction
The cytochrome P450 mixed function oxidase enzymes are the major catalysts involved in drug metabolism. There are many forms of P450. CYP2E1 metabolizes many toxicologically important compounds including ethanol and is active in generating reactive ...

Association of Cytochrome P450 2E1 and N-Acetyltransferase 2 Genotypes with Serum Isoniazid Level and Anti-Tuberculosis Drug-Induced Hepatotoxicity: A Cross-Sectional Study [PDF]
Background: Anti-tuberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity can result from genetic polymorphism of the isoniazid (INH) metabolizing enzyme. This study aimed to determine the effect of genetic polymorphism of N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) and cytochrome ...

CHIN117 is a dual cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CYSLTR1) antagonist and G‐protein‐coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1) agonist. In the liver, GPBAR1 and CYSLTR1 are coexpressed by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), HSCs, circulating monocytes/macrophages, and liver resident macrophages (Kupffer cells).
