Therapeutic proteins (TPs) may affect the disposition of drugs that are metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, as is evident from a review of data in recently published literature and approved Biologic License Applications. Many TPs belonging to the cytokine class appear to differentially affect CYP activities. Cytokine modulators may affect CYP enzyme activities by altering cytokine effects on CYP enzymes. The alteration in CYP enzyme activities seems to result from changes in transcription factor activity for CYP enzyme expression or changes in CYP enzyme stability, which have been observed during altered immunological states such as infection and inflammation. Human growth hormone also appears to differentially affect CYP activities through unknown mechanisms. Because TP-drug interaction research is an evolving area, limited information is available during drug development on TP-drug interactions mediated by CYP inhibition or induction. The authors of this review suggest that effort be made to understand TP-drug interactions for the safe and effective use of TPs in combination with small-molecule drugs.

Cyclophilin (Cyp) inhibitors are of clinical interest in respect to their antiviral activities in the context of many viral infections including chronic hepatitis B and C. Cyps are a group of enzymes with peptidyl-prolyl isomerase activity (PPIase), known to be required for replication of diverse viruses including hepatitis B and C viruses (HBV and HCV). Amongst the Cyp family, the molecular mechanisms underlying the antiviral effects of CypA have been investigated in detail, but potential roles of other Cyps are less well studied in the context of viral hepatitis.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the major phytochemical constituents of cannabis, , widely recognized for its therapeutic potential. While cannabis has been utilized for medicinal purposes since ancient times, its psychoactive and addictive properties led to its prohibition in 1937, with only the medical use being reauthorized in 1998. Unlike tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD lacks psychoactive and addictive properties, yet the name that suggests its association with cannabis has significantly contributed to its public visibility.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a rare genetic disorder commonly affecting multiple organs such as the lungs, pancreas, liver, kidney, and intestine. Our search focuses on the pathophysiological changes that affect the drugs' absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME). This review aims to identify the ADME data that compares the pharmacokinetics (PK) of different drugs in CF and healthy subjects.

Introduction: Deglycosylated azithromycin (Deg-AZM), a new transgelin agonist with positive therapeutic effects on slow transit constipation, has been approved for clinical trials in 2024. This work investigated the drug metabolism and transport of Deg-AZM to provide research data for further development of Deg-AZM.

Methods: A combination of UPLC-QTOF-MS was used to obtain metabolite spectra of Deg-AZM in plasma, urine, feces and bile.

Background: Synergists reduce insecticide metabolism in mosquitoes by competing with insecticides for the active sites of metabolic enzymes, such as cytochrome P450s (CYPs). This increases the availability of the insecticide at its specific target site. The combination of both insecticides and synergists increases the toxicity of the mixture.
