摘要
The Ginkgo biloba extract EGb761 was tested for its ability to inhibit the major human cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs). The full extract was found to strongly inhibit CYP2C9 (K-i = 14 +/- 4 mug/mL), and to a lesser extent, CYP1A2 (K-i = 106 +/- 24 mug/mL), CYP2E1 (K-i = 127 +/- 42 mug/mL), and CYP3A4 (K-i = 155 +/- 43 mug/mL). The terpenoidic and flavonoidic fractions of the extract were tested separately against the same P450s to identify the source of inhibition by EGb761. The terpenoidic fraction inhibited only CYP2C9 (K-i = 15 +/- 6 mug/mL) whereas the flavonoidic fraction of EGb761 showed high inhibition of CYP2C9, CYP1A2, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4 (K-i's between 4.9 and 55 mug/mL). The flavonoidic fraction was further fractionated using extraction and chromatography. Inhibition studies indicated that the majority of these fractions inhibited P450s at a significant level (IC50<40 mug/mL). (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
