Two effective cytochrome P450 (CYP) inhibitors were isolated from tarragon, Artemisia dracunculus. Their structures were spectroscopically identified as 2E,4E-undeca-2,4-diene-8,10-diynoic acid isobutylamide (1) and 2E,4E-undeca-2,4-diene-8,10-diynoic acid piperidide (2). Both compounds had dose-dependent inhibitory effects on CYP3A4 activity with IC50 values of 10.0 ± 1.3 µM for compound 1 and 3.3 ± 0.2 µM for compound 2, and exhibited mechanism-based inhibition. This is the first reported isolation of effective CYP inhibitors from tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus) purchased from a Japanese market.

Introduction: Zongertinib (BI 1810631) is a potent, selective, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) wild-type sparing human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) inhibitor. Based on in vitro data, the oxidative hepatic metabolism of zongertinib is principally driven by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4/5. Therefore, zongertinib may be affected by strong CYP3A inducers, like carbamazepine.

Cuproptosis is crucial in the development of various liver diseases, yet its involvement in alcoholic liver disease (ALD) remains poorly understood. In this study, we screened cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) regulating ALD and explored their potential molecular mechanisms. Bioinformatic methods were employed to screen CRGs in ALD, analyze their functional enrichment, signaling pathways, transcriptional regulation, relationship with the immune microenvironment and pathogenic genes, and corresponding single nucleotide polymorphism pathogenic regions, and construct transcription factor-miRNA-mRNA networks.

Prostate cancer is a prevalent and highly heterogeneous malignancy that affects men globally. Despite the availability of various treatment targets, Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes have gained significant attention due to their crucial role in metabolizing both endogenous and exogenous compounds. This study explores Diosmetin as a potential CYP antagonist for treating prostate cancer.

Objective: This study investigated absorption, metabolism, and excretion of adagrasib after a single oral 600 mg dose (1 µCi [C]-adagrasib) in 7 healthy subjects and compared the metabolite profile to the profile at steady-state in 4 patients dosed at 600 mg twice daily.
Methods: Plasma, urine, and feces were collected post [C]-adagrasib administration and total radioactivity and pooled sample metabolite profiles were determined. Adagrasib pharmacokinetics were determined in plasma and urine.

Breast cancer (BC) is a common malignant tumor in women and requires a comprehensive understanding of its pathogenesis for the development of new therapeutic strategies. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) metabolism-driven inflammation is a causative factor in cancer development. However, the function of PUFAs' metabolism in BC remains largely unknown.
