The purpose of this study was to compare the kinetics of intestinal
and hepatic cytochrome P-450 3A (CYP3A) inhibition by using
microsomal midazolam 1'-hydroxylation as a marker of enzyme activity.
The effect of two antifungal agents commonly implicated in CYP3A
drug-drug interactions was examined. Inhibition type and affinities
were determined for human liver and intestinal microsomes screened for
the presence or absence of CYP3A4 and CYP3A5, as well as for
cDNA-expressed CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 microsomes. Ketoconazole and
fluconazole were found to be noncompetitive inhibitors of both enzymes.
Ketoconazole exhibited a Ki for
cDNA-expressed CYP3A4 of 26.7 ± 1.71 nM, whereas the
Ki for cDNA expressed CYP3A5 was 109 ± 19.7 nM. Corresponding Ki values for
fluconazole were 9.21 ± 0.51 µM and 84.6 ± 12.9 µM. For
liver and intestinal microsomes that contained only CYP3A4, the average
ketoconazole Ki was found to be 14.9 ± 6.7 nM and 17.0 ± 7.9 nM, respectively, whereas fluconazole yielded mean respective Ki values of
10.7 ± 4.2 µM and 10.4 ± 2.9 µM. Liver and intestinal
microsomes that contained an equal or greater amount of CYP3A5, in
addition to CYP3A4, were less susceptible to inhibition by both
ketoconazole and fluconazole. These findings suggest that there can be
significant differences in the affinity of these two enzymes for
inhibitors. This may further broaden interindividual variability with
respect to the magnitude of in vivo drug-drug interactions. We also
conclude that there is no significant difference in inhibition type and affinity of ketoconazole and fluconazole for hepatic versus intestinal CYP3A4.
