TABLE 1

Inhibition of the P450 probe reactions, phenacetin O-deethylation (POD), diclofenac 4-hydroxylation (D4OH), S-mephenytoin 4-hydroxylation (SM4OH), bufuralol 1-hydroxylation (B1OH), and midazolam 1-hydroxylation (M1OH) by standard time-dependent inhibitors

Percentage TDI was calculated from the ratio of R + INADPH/RINADPH and R + INO NADPH/RINO NADPH as detailed under Results (eq. 2). Projected IC50 was calculated according to eq. 1 (Results). Inhibitor concentrations were as follows: Furafylline (FUR),10 μM; tienilic acid (TA), 0.5 μM; ticlopidine (TIC), 5 μM; MDMA, 5 μM; troleandomycin (TAO), 1.5 μM; mifepristone (MIF), 5 μM. Data are the mean of 30 experiments. For each inhibitor, the coefficient of variance (CV) was less than 5% for percentage TDI values and less than 20% for projected IC50 values.
