1. In Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats treated for 7 days with malotilate (MAL:250 mg/kg, p.o.), cytochrome P-450 and b5 contents, aminopyrine N-demethylase and heme oxygenase activities were significantly increased. In Wistar rats, cytochrome b5 content and heme oxygenase and delta-aminolevulinic acid synthetase activities were found to be significantly increased. 2. Among the antipyrine metabolites excreted in urine during the 24 hr after antipyrine (100 mg/kg, i.p.) administration, norantipyrine increased significantly in Sprague-Dawley rats, while a significant increase of 4-hydroxyantipyrine was observed in Wistar rats. 3. The serum dimethadione/trimethadione ratio was only found to be significantly increased in Sprague-Dawley rats. 4. These results indicate that malotilate may have inducible effects on hepatic drug metabolizing enzymes, and that it affects the various cytochrome P-450 isozymes from different strains of rat in different ways.

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.

D000469 Alkaline Phosphatase An enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of an orthophosphoric monoester and water to an alcohol and orthophosphate. EC 3.1.3.1.
