ABSTRACT
AIM@#To assess the effects of Radix Bupleuri and vinegar-baked Radix Bupleuri on cytochrome 450 activity of rats.@*METHODS@#Six probe drugs (caffeine, midazolam, dextromethorphan, tolbutamide, omeprazole, chlorzoxazone) were simultaneously given to rats after different dosing of Radix Bupleuri or vinegar-baked Radix Bupleuri for seven days. The plasma concentrations of the six probes were measured by high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) and their corresponding pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated.@*RESULTS@#The AUC and T1/2 of midazolam, dextromethorphan and chlorzoxazone decreased significantly (P 0.05) from that of controlled rats, however, treatment of Radix Bupleuri decreased tolbutamide T1/2. The pharmacokinetics of caffeine in all Radix Bupleuri or vinegar-baked Radix Bupleuri-treated rats showed no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05) from that of controlled rats.@*CONCLUSION@#The Radix Bupleuri and vinegar-baked Radix Bupleuri have different effects on the CYP2C9 and CYP2C19. Radix Bupleuri and vinegar-baked Radix Bupleuri have strong induction effects on the CYP2E1, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4, however, have no impact on CYP1A2. The reason of different therapeutic effects of Radix Bupleuri and vinegar-baked Radix Bupleuri extract may be the different effects of Radix Bupleuri and vinegar-baked Radix Bupleuri on the CYP2C9 and CYP2C19.
