Ethynylflavones, highly potent, and selective inhibitors of cytochrome P450 1A1. [PDF]
The flavone backbone is a well-known pharmacophore present in a number of substrates and inhibitors of various P450 enzymes. In order to find highly potent and novel P450 family I enzyme inhibitors, an acetylene group was incorporated into six different positions of flavone.

Cytochrome P450 Family 1 Inhibitors and Structure-Activity Relationships [PDF]
With the widespread use of O-alkoxyresorufin dealkylation assays since the 1990s, thousands of inhibitors of cytochrome P450 family 1 enzymes (P450s 1A1, 1A2, and 1B1) have been identified and studied.

NADH:Cytochrome b5 Reductase and Cytochrome b5 Can Act as Sole Electron Donors to Human Cytochrome P450 1A1-Mediated Oxidation and DNA Adduct Formation by Benzo[a]pyrene. [PDF]
Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) is a human carcinogen that covalently binds to DNA after activation by cytochrome P450 (P450). Here, we investigated whether NADH:cytochrome b5 reductase (CBR) in the presence of cytochrome b5 can act as sole electron donor to human ...

Cytochrome P450 1A1 opens up to new substrates. [PDF]
The cytochromes P450 (CYPs) oxidatively transform a huge number of substrates in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, but the mechanisms by which they accommodate these diverse molecules remain unclear. A new study by Bart and Scott reports two co-crystal structures of CYP1A1 that reveal structural rearrangements and flexible interaction networks

Melatonin Activation by Human Cytochrome P450 Enzymes: A Comparison between Different Isozymes
Cytochrome P450 enzymes in the human body play a pivotal role in both the biosynthesis and the degradation of the hormone melatonin. Melatonin plays a key role in circadian rhythms in the body, but its concentration is also linked to mood fluctuations as

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).

Generation of reactive oxygen species by polyenylpyrroles derivatives causes DNA damage leading to G2/M arrest and apoptosis in human oral squamous cell carcinoma cells. [PDF]
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) accounts for 5.8% of all malignancies in Taiwan and the incidence of OSCC is on the rise. OSCC is also a common malignancy worldwide and the five-year survival rate remains poor. Therefore, new and effective treatments

Heteroactivation of cytochrome P450 1A1 by teas and tea polyphenols [PDF]
We studied 7‐ethoxyresorufin deethylase as an index of cytochrome P4501A1 (CYP1A1) activity in liver microsomes from rats pretreated with 3‐methylcholanthrene. The enzyme had complex kinetics compatible with a multisite model. At 1 μM substrate, brewed black, green and white teas had complex effects on enzyme activity consisting of activation at low ...
