Abstract
The effects of five antifungal drugs, fluconazole, itraconazole, micafungin, miconazole, and voriconazole, on cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2-mediated 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylation, CYP2D6-mediated debrisoquine 4-hydroxylation, and CYP2E1-mediated chlorzoxazone 6-hydroxylation activities in human liver microsomes were compared. In addition, the effect of preincubation was estimated in order to investigate the mechanism-based inhibition. IC50 values of miconazole against CYP1A2 and CYP2D6 activities were 2.90 and 6.46 microM, respectively, and miconazole at 10 microM concentration slightly inhibited CYP2E1 activity. On the other hand, other antifungal drugs neither inhibited nor stimulated all of the metabolic activities. The stimulation of the inhibition of the metabolic activities mediated by CYP1A2, CYP2D6, or CYP2E1 by 15-min preincubation was not observed for any of the antifungal drugs, suggesting that these antifungal drugs are not mechanism-based inhibitors. These results suggest that miconazole is the strongest inhibitor against CYP1A2, CYP2D6, and CYP2E1 among the antifungal drugs investigated.Entities:
