摘要: Cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) accounts for about 10 to 15% of the total CYP content human liver and is major enzyme involved in metabolism imipramine, propranolol, clozapine, theophylline, caffeine. It also conversion heterocyclic amines their proximal carcinogenic mutagenic forms, as well endogenous substances, including 17β-estradiol uroporphyrinogen III. Fluvoxamine a potent inhibitor CYP1A2, there potential interaction with drugs that are metabolised by this isoenzyme. This property fluvoxamine may be usefully applied identifying agents substrates it has possible therapeutic application prevention CYP1A2-mediated toxic metabolite formation.
