TABLE 2
Correlation between rate of formation for clindamycin sulfoxide and
standard cytochrome P450 enzyme-specific activities in a panel of human liver
microsomal preparations Clindamycin (50 μM) was incubated with human
liver microsomes from 12 individual donors (0.3 mg/ml), in triplicate.
Activities were normalized to P450 content and correlated with enzyme-specific
marker activities [CYP1A2/ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase;
CYP2C9/tolbutamide-4-hydroxylase; CYP2C19 (S)-mephenytoin
4′-hydroxylase; CYP2E1/chlorzoxazone 6-hydroxylase;
CYP2D6/dextromethorphan O-demethylation; CYP3A4/testosterone
6β-hydroxylase] using standard methods as described under Materials
and Methods.
