Liver microsomes from Sprague-Dawley male rats are able to biotransform Benznidazole (Bz) or Nifurtimox (NFX) by nitroreduction. Pretreatment of the rats during three days with phenobarbital (80 mg/kg/day, ip) but not with 3-methylcholanthrene (35 mg/kg/day ip) increased both Bz and NFX nitroreductase activity. Results suggest that cytochrome P-450 but not cytochrome P-448 is involved in the nitroreduction of these two chemotherapeutic agents against Chagas' disease. Possible pharmacological and toxicological implications of these observations are discussed.
来自斯普拉格-道利雄性大鼠的肝微粒体能够通过硝基还原作用对苯硝唑(Bz)或硝呋替莫(NFX)进行生物转化。用苯巴比妥(80毫克/千克/天,腹腔注射)对大鼠进行三天预处理可增加Bz和NFX的硝基还原酶活性,但用3-甲基胆蒽(35毫克/千克/天,腹腔注射)预处理则不会。结果表明,细胞色素P-450而非细胞色素P-448参与了这两种治疗恰加斯病的化疗药物的硝基还原过程。讨论了这些观察结果可能的药理学和毒理学意义。
