Male Wistar rate were treated with benfluorex, 50 mg/kg/p.p. daily for 7 days. The administration of benfluorex markedly increased the activity of ethoxycoumarin deethylase without increase of cytochrome P 450 levels in hepatic microsomes. The activity of bilirubin glucuronosyl transferase is so much increased with benfluorex than phenobarbital but this effects are not additive. Benfluorex alone affected the fatty acid composition of microsomal lecithins and when given with phenobarbital benfluorex modified the phenobarbital-induced changes in the fatty acid composition of microsomal lecithins. Electrophoresis of microsomal proteins showed non sensitive induction of any proteins with benfluorex.

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.
