Oxidation of tienilic acid by human yeast-expressed cytochromes P-450 2C8, 2C9, 2C18 and 2C19. Evidence that this drug is a mechanism-based inhibitor…

Oxidation of tienilic acid by human cytochromes P-450 (CYP) 2C9, 2C18, 2C8 and 2C19 was studied using recombinant enzymes expressed in yeast. CYP 2C9 was the best catalyst for 5-hydroxylation of tienilic acid (K(m) = 5 +/- 1 microM, kcat = 1.7 +/- 0.2 min-1), 30-fold more potent in terms of kcat/K(m) than CYP 2C18 (K(m) = 150 +/- 15 microM, kcat = 1.8 +/- 0.2 min-1) and 300-fold more potent than CYP 2C8 (K(m) = 145 +/- 15 microM, kcat = 0.2 +/- 0.1 min-1). CYP 2C19 was unable to catalyze this hydroxylation under our experimental conditions. During this study, a marked effect of the ionic strength on the activities (hydroxylations of tienilic acid and tolbutamide) of these cytochromes P-450 …
Kinetics of tienilic acid bioactivation and functional generation of drug–protein adducts in intact rat hepatocytes
2005
13 pages; Drug-induced autoimmune hepatitis is among the most severe hepatic idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions. Considered multifactorial, the disease combines immunological and metabolic aspects, the latter being to date much better known. As for many other model drugs, studies on tienilic acid (TA)-induced hepatitis have evidenced the existence of bioactivation during the hepatic oxidation of the drug, allowing the identification of the neoantigen of anti-LKM2 autoantibodies and the pathway responsible for its formation. However, most of these results are based on the use of microsomal fractions whose relevance to the liver in vivo still needs to be established. In the more complex int…
