1 The aim of this study was to investigate the contribution of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 and their polymorphisms to the variability of cyclophosphamide activation. Cyclophosphamide cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily C member 19 Homo sapiens
2 We found a statistically significant correlation ( r(s)=0.65, P=0.003) between 4-hydroxylation of cyclophosphamide and 5"-hydroxylation of R-omeprazole, a measure of CYP2C19 activity in human liver microsomes ( n=19). Cyclophosphamide cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily C member 19 Homo sapiens
3 In conclusion, based on the correlation with the formation of R-5"-hydroxyomeprazole, CYP2C19 may partly contribute to the bioactivation of cyclophosphamide in human liver microsomes, while the role of CYP2C9 appears minor. Cyclophosphamide cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily C member 19 Homo sapiens
