1 Characterization of CYP2B6 in a CYP2B6-humanized mouse model: inducibility in the liver by phenobarbital and dexamethasone and role in nicotine metabolism in vivo. Nicotine cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
2 The ability of CYP2B6 to metabolize nicotine was then examined, both in vitro and in vivo. Nicotine cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
3 Thus, the transgenic CYP2B6 was inducible and functional, and, in the absence of mouse CYP2A and CYP2B enzymes, it contributed to nicotine metabolism in vivo. Nicotine cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
