Cytochrome P450 Enzymes

(Table 7-11)

Major drug-metabolizing enzymes that are most predominant in the liver but can also be found in other organs (i.e., intestine, lung)
Drug interaction involving p450 enzymes typically occur from one of two processes: enzyme inhibition or enzyme induction
Enzyme inhibition: competition with another drug for the enzyme-binding site
Enzyme induction: drug stimulates synthesis of more enzyme protein, enhancing metabolizing capacity of the enzyme
Different isoforms: CYP2D6, CYP3A4 (most abundant cytochrome enzymes in humans and involved in many clinically important drug interactions), CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2E1, CYP2C19
Many drugs are substrates (metabolized by specific p450 isoenzyme) but unable to inhibit or induce the p450 enzymes
