1 Controversial results about the involvement of CYP 1A2 and oxidative stress in tacrine-induced hepatotoxicity have been described by the different research groups. Tacrine cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily A member 2 Homo sapiens
2 The fact that fluvoxamine, a potent cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2 inhibitor, reduced tacrine toxicity and the expression of the CYP 1A2 gene was maintained in gel entrapped hepatocytes, but not in hepatocyte monolayers, could illustrate a close association between CYP 1A2 expression levels and tacrine toxicity. Tacrine cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily A member 2 Homo sapiens
