1 | METHODS: The effects of various flavonoids and furanocoumarin derivatives on CYP3A4 activity in two human liver microsomal samples was determined using quinine as a substrate. | Quinine | cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 4 | Homo sapiens |
2 | RESULTS: The results showed that the inhibition of quinine 3-hydroxylation (CYP3A4 activity) by bergapten (67%), and quercetin (55%) was greater than naringenin (39%) and naringin (6%), at the same inhibitor concentration of 100 M. The results also demonstrated that the furan ring in the furanocoumarins enhanced the inhibitory effect on CYP3A4 activity. | Quinine | cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 4 | Homo sapiens |
