Cytochrome P450 Assay at AxisPharm Laboratories
Overview
AxisPharm Laboratories offers specialized Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) assays to assess how drugs are metabolized by the liver. Cytochrome P450 enzymes play a crucial role in drug metabolism, impacting how drugs are processed, their potential interactions, and their overall effectiveness. Our assays help in evaluating these factors, supporting drug development and safety assessments.
Key Features
- Enzyme Activity Analysis: Measures how test compounds are metabolized by CYP450 enzymes. This helps determine how drugs are processed and their potential for interacting with other drugs.
- Drug-Drug Interaction Testing: Evaluates whether a compound inhibits or induces CYP450 enzymes, which is vital for predicting possible drug interactions.
- Pharmacokinetic Insights: Provides data on how drugs are metabolized, helping to predict their behavior in the body.
How It Works
-
Enzyme Preparation:
- We use either recombinant CYP450 enzymes or liver microsomes enriched with these enzymes.
-
Incubation:
- Test compounds are incubated with the CYP450 enzyme preparations in a controlled environment.
-
Detection:
- Metabolites are analyzed using techniques such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).
-
Data Analysis:
- We assess enzyme activity based on the production of metabolites and calculate key parameters like Km (Michaelis constant) and Vmax (maximum reaction velocity).
Applications
- Drug Development: Understand how new drugs are metabolized to design better compounds.
- Safety Studies: Identify metabolic pathways that may lead to toxic effects.
- Regulatory Support: Provide critical data for regulatory submissions and drug approvals.
