A reverse-phase, high-performance liquid chromatography method is described for quantification of diclofenac 4'-hydroxylation catalyzed by human liver microsomes or cDNA-expressed CYP2C9. Analytical separation is achieved using a C18 column developed with a gradient of 30% acetonitrile and 2 mM perchloric acid in water to 100% methanol, with detection at 280 nm. This method is applicable to enzymatic studies for determination of CYP2C9-catalyzed diclofenac 4'-hydroxylation activity.

Positive heterotropic cooperativity, or "activation," results in an instantaneous increase in enzyme activity in the absence of an increase in protein expression. Thus, cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme activation presents as a potential drug-drug interaction mechanism. It has been demonstrated previously that dapsone activates the CYP2C9-catalyzed oxidation of a number of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in vitro.

The use of volatile biomarkers in exhaled breath as predictors to individual drug response would advance the field of personalised medicine by providing direct information on enzyme activity. This would result in enormous benefits, both for patients and for the healthcare sector. Non-invasive breath tests would also gain a high acceptance by patients.

Chimeric mice with humanized livers (humanized liver mice) are attractive experimental animal models for drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic studies. The "humanized liver" is a mature and functional liver with zonal position-specific expressions of human cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes and a global gene expression pattern consistent with that of the mature human liver. Most P450-dependent drug oxidation activities were comparable between microsomes from livers of human and humanized liver mice based on similar expression levels of human P450 enzymes; however, some differences were observed between the two species, including considerable variations in activities of bufuralol 1'-hydroxylation and propafenone 4'-hydroxylation.

In the field of drug development, technology for producing human metabolites at a low cost is required. In this study, we explored the possibility of using prokaryotic water-soluble cytochrome P450 (CYP) to produce human metabolites. Streptomyces griseolus CYP105A1 metabolizes various non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including diclofenac, mefenamic acid, flufenamic acid, tolfenamic acid, meclofenamic acid, and ibuprofen.

Preparations from the leaves of the kratom plant () are consumed for their opioid-like effects. Several deaths have been associated with kratom used concomitantly with some drugs. Pharmacokinetic interactions are potential underlying mechanisms of these fatalities.
