1 Monocrotaline (MCT) is bioactivated in liver cytochrome P-450s to MCT pyrrole (MCTP), which primarily injures the lung endothelium to result in the development of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in rats. Monocrotaline cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily g, polypeptide 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 Monocrotaline (MCT) is bioactivated in liver cytochrome P-450s to MCT pyrrole (MCTP), which primarily injures the lung endothelium to result in the development of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in rats. Monocrotaline cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily g, polypeptide 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 However, whether there is a relation between the degree of PH and the activity of liver cytochrome P-450 to convert MCT to MCTP remains unclear. Monocrotaline cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily g, polypeptide 1 Rattus norvegicus
