The use of single sample clearance estimates to probe hepatic drug metabolism in rats. II.
    Xenobiotica; the fate of foreign compounds in biological systems, 1988, Volume: 18, Issue:2

    1. Single sample clearance estimates, Cl, were calculated for each of five drugs employed as probes of hepatic drug-metabolizing activity in rats. Probe drugs were theophylline, phenytoin, valproic acid, antipyrine, and S-warfarin. Cl values were calculated for each probe in animals pretreated with phenobarbital, isosafrole, beta-naphthoflavone, or clofibrate. Control animals were pretreated with vehicle only. 2. A clearance index (c.i., probe Cl after pretreatment divided by probe Cl control) was calculated for each probe and each pretreatment regimen, and data were consolidated to give different probe-based handprints of the pretreatment effects. 3. S-Warfarin was the least specific probe as its c.i. was greater than 1.0 subsequent to each pretreatment. Theophylline appeared to be the most selective probe since its c.i. deviated significantly from unity (3.56) only after beta-naphthoflavone pretreatment. Phenytoin exhibited c.i. values less than unity after each pretreatment indicating that it may not, when used as a single sample probe of hepatic drug-metabolizing activity, effectively discriminate between inductive or inhibitory effects of xenobiotics. 4. Multi-probe-based handprints of hepatic drug-metabolizing activity structured from simple single sample estimates of probe clearance have potential in the rapid screening of xenobiotic-induced alterations of drug-metabolizing enzyme activity.

Isozyme selectivity of the inhibition of rat liver cytochromes P-450 by chloramphenicol in vivo.
    Molecular pharmacology, 1985, Volume: 28, Issue:3

    The isozyme-selectivity of chloramphenicol as an inhibitor of rat liver cytochromes P-450 has been investigated. Untreated rats and rats treated with the inducers phenobarbital, beta-naphthoflavone, pregnenolone 16 alpha-carbonitrile, and clofibrate have been injected intraperitoneally with chloramphenicol, and inhibition of specific cytochrome P-450 isozymes has been assessed by monitoring the metabolism of warfarin, testosterone, isosafrole, or lauric acid in subsequently prepared hepatic microsomal preparations. Of eight major cytochrome P-450 isozymes which could be monitored in this fashion, three were inhibited by more than 50% by a dose of chloramphenicol of 300 mg/kg, whereas no evidence of inhibition of the remaining isozymes was obtained. P-450PB-C, an isozyme which is present in significant amounts in untreated rats and which is induced approximately 2-fold by phenobarbital, was the most susceptible cytochrome P-450 to inhibition by chloramphenicol both in vivo and in vitro. P-450PB-B, the major phenobarbital-inducible isozyme, and P-450UT-A, a male-specific testosterone 2 alpha- and 16 alpha-hydroxylase, were intermediate in their susceptibility to chloramphenicol. In contrast, the major isozymes induced by beta-naphthoflavone, pregnenolone 16 alpha-carbonitrile, and clofibrate, as well as a constitutive testosterone 7 alpha-hydroxylase, were not inhibited by chloramphenicol.
