Differential effects of lipid composition on the thermal and functional properties of membrane associated CYP2J2. [PDF]

Protein Sci
Abstract CYP2J2 is a membrane‐bound cytochrome P450 that is expressed in cardiomyocytes, where it is known to metabolize arachidonic acid into cardioprotective epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs). It consists of transmembrane domains embedded in the hydrophobic segments of the cell membrane and surrounded by various lipids.

Drug-induced liver toxicity and prevention by herbal antioxidants: an overview

Frontiers in Physiology, 2016
The liver is the center for drug and xenobiotic metabolism, which is influenced most with medication/xenobiotic-mediated toxic activity. Drug-induced hepatotoxicity is common and its actual frequency is hard to determine due to underreporting ...
