Comparison of the effects of 11-palmitoyloxy-delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol with delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol and 11-hydroxy-delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol on the hepatic microsomal drug-metabolizing enzyme system. 1979

E G Leighty

Delta 9-THC and 11-OH-delta 9-THC appear to in vivo affect the metabolism of both Type I and Type II substrates involving cytochrome P-450 as well as to affect the metabolism of a substrate requiring cytochrome P-448. These effects could not be observed significantly in in vitro experiments at the concentrations used. 11-Palmitoyloxy-delta 9-THC does not appear to affect the metabolism of either Type I or Type II substrates but does appear to affect those substrates requiring P-448. From these studies it appears that long-retained delta 9-THC metabolite 11-palmitoyloxy-delta 9-THC, as well as delta 9-THC and 11-OH-delta 9-THC, could alter in vivo the metabolism and activity of certain drugs and other foreign compounds.

D010088 Oxidoreductases The class of all enzymes catalyzing oxidoreduction reactions. The substrate that is oxidized is regarded as a hydrogen donor. The systematic name is based on donor:acceptor oxidoreductase. The recommended name will be dehydrogenase, wherever this is possible; as an alternative, reductase can be used. Oxidase is only used in cases where O2 is the acceptor. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992, p9) Dehydrogenases,Oxidases,Oxidoreductase,Reductases,Dehydrogenase,Oxidase,Reductase
D011506 Proteins Linear POLYPEPTIDES that are synthesized on RIBOSOMES and may be further modified, crosslinked, cleaved, or assembled into complex proteins with several subunits. The specific sequence of AMINO ACIDS determines the shape the polypeptide will take, during PROTEIN FOLDING, and the function of the protein.

D003577 Cytochrome P-450 Enzyme System A superfamily of hundreds of closely related HEMEPROTEINS found throughout the phylogenetic spectrum, from animals, plants, fungi, to bacteria. They include numerous complex monooxygenases (MIXED FUNCTION OXYGENASES). In animals, these P-450 enzymes serve two major functions: (1) biosynthesis of steroids, fatty acids, and bile acids; (2) metabolism of endogenous and a wide variety of exogenous substrates, such as toxins and drugs (BIOTRANSFORMATION). They are classified, according to their sequence similarities rather than functions, into CYP gene families (>40% homology) and subfamilies (>59% homology). For example, enzymes from the CYP1, CYP2, and CYP3 gene families are responsible for most drug metabolism.

D006899 Mixed Function Oxygenases Widely distributed enzymes that carry out oxidation-reduction reactions in which one atom of the oxygen molecule is incorporated into the organic substrate; the other oxygen atom is reduced and combined with hydrogen ions to form water. They are also known as monooxygenases or hydroxylases. These reactions require two substrates as reductants for each of the two oxygen atoms. There are different classes of monooxygenases depending on the type of hydrogen-providing cosubstrate (COENZYMES) required in the mixed-function oxidation.
