[Effect of Laportea bulbifera extract on CYP450 enzyme activities in rats by Cocktail probe drug method]

The Cocktail probe drug method was used to evaluate the effect of Laportea bulbifera extract on the different subtypes of CYP450 enzyme activities in rats, and to provide references for its clinical rational drug use. The rats were randomly divided into a high-dose L. bulbifera group(0.45 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)) and a low-dose L. bulbifera group(0.09 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)). After continuous gavage for 7 and 14 days, the Cocktail probe mixing solution, including caffeine, midazolam, tolbutamide, omeprazole, metoprolol, and chlorzoxazone, was injected into the tail vein, and the blood sample was obtained from the tail vein at different time points. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS) was established to determine the concentration of six probe drugs in rat plasma. DAS 2.0 was used to calculate its pharmacokinetic parameters, and the effect of L. bulbifera extract on CYP1 A2, CYP2 C9, CYP2 C19, CYP2 D6, CYP2 E1, and CYP3 A4 in rats was investigated. As compared with the blank control group, under the omeprazole index, the AUC_(0-t) and AUC_(0-∞) of the 7-day administration groups and the 14-day high-dose group were significantly decreased, and the CLz and Vz were significantly increased. Under the midazolam index, the AUC_(0-t) and AUC_(0-∞) of the 7-day low-dose group and the 14-day administration group were significantly decreased, and the CLz was significantly increased. In addition, the AUC_(0-∞) of the 7-day high-dose group was also significantly decreased. Under the index of metoprolol, the AUC_(0-t) and AUC_(0-∞) of each experimental group were decreased significantly, and the CLz and Vz of the 7-day low-dose group and the 14-day low-dose group were increased significantly. Under the caffeine index, the AUC_(0-t) and AUC_(0-∞) of the 7-day administration groups were increased significantly, the CLz was decreased significantly, and the t_(1/2 z) of the 14-day high-dose group was increased significantly. Under the chlorzoxazone index, the AUC_(0-t) and AUC_(0-∞) of the 7-day low-dose group were increased significantly, and the CLz was decreased significantly. Under the tolbutamide index, there was no statistical difference in the pharmacokinetic parameters. In conclusion, L. bulbifera extract induces the activities of CYP2 C19, CYP3 A4, and CYP2 D6, inhibits the activities of CYP1 A2 and CYP2 E1, and does not affect the activity of CYP2 C9.
