Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Cytochrome P450 Inhibition
Description:  Protocol 1: Studies were carried out in human liver microsomes. Human liver microsomes were purchased from BD Gentest. DMSO stocks were prepared for the test compounds. Aliquots of the DMSO solutions were diluted 1:3 by acetonitrile:ACN mixture (v/v: 40:60) to "400×" intermediate solutions, then further diluted by liver microsomes/buffer to "2×" intermediate solutions. "2×" intermediate solutions were mixed with "2×" NADPH/substrate solutions, which had been pre-warmed to 37° C. (final test compound concentrations were 10 μM, 3.3 μM, 1.1 μM, 0.37 μM, 0.122 μM, 0.041 μM, 0.0136 μM, and 0 μM). The plates were kept in a 37° C. water bath for the duration of the experiment. At the end of incubation (5 minutes for 3A4; 45 minutes for 2C19; 10 minutes for 1A2, 2C9, 2D6), 120 μL of acetonitrile was added into corresponding wells. After the final time point was sampled, the plates were shaken at a vibrator (IKA, MTS 2/4) for 10 mM (600 rpm/min) and then centrifuged at 5594 g for 15 mM (Thermo Multifuge×3R). Aliquots of the supernatant were removed, diluted 1:1 into distilled water, and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. The peak area response ratio to internal standard (PARR) of the compounds at 10 μM, 3.3 μM, 1.1 μM, 0.37 μM, 0.122 μM, 0.041 μM, and 0.0136 μM was compared to the PARR at 0 μM to determine the percent of metabolite generation from substrate at each test compound concentration.
