1 Troleandomycin administration, however, essentially suppressed cytochrome P-450 UT-A (one of the P-450 forms involved in the hydroxylation of estrogens) and resulted in the appearance of cytochrome P-450 forms whose estradiol hydroxylase activity was inhibitable by troleandomycin in vitro. Troleandomycin cytochrome P450, subfamily 2, polypeptide 11 Rattus norvegicus
2 We conclude that the administration of troleandomycin, but not that of erythromycin or roxithromycin, decreases ethinylestradiol 2/4-hydroxylase activity in male rat liver microsomes, as a possible consequence of decreased cytochrome P-450 UT-A levels and of the induction of glucocorticoid-responsive P-450 forms whose ethinylestradiol hydroxylase activity is inhibitable by troleandomycin. Troleandomycin cytochrome P450, subfamily 2, polypeptide 11 Rattus norvegicus
