1 The aim of this study was to determine the impact of alcohol on the metabolism of specific probes for CES1 (oseltamivir) and CES2 (aspirin). Alcohols carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens
2 METHODS: The effect of alcohol on CES1- and CES2-mediated probe drug hydrolysis was determined in vitro using recombinant human carboxylesterase. Alcohols carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens
3 RESULTS: Alcohol significantly inhibited oseltamivir hydrolysis by CES1 in vitro but did not affect aspirin metabolism by CES2. Alcohols carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens
4 CONCLUSIONS: Alcohol significantly inhibited the hydrolysis of oseltamivir by CES1 both in vitro and in humans, but did not affect the hydrolysis of aspirin to salicylic acid by CES2. Alcohols carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens
5 These results suggest that alcohol"s inhibition of CES1 could potentially result in clinically significant drug interactions with other CES1-substrate drugs, but it is unlikely to significantly affect CES2-substrate drug hydrolysis. Alcohols carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens
6 These results suggest that alcohol"s inhibition of CES1 could potentially result in clinically significant drug interactions with other CES1-substrate drugs, but it is unlikely to significantly affect CES2-substrate drug hydrolysis. Alcohols carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens
