    Abstract:
    CYP2C enzymes play key roles in drug metabolism, and clinical drug-drug interactions caused by CYP2C induction have been reported. The aim of this study was to establish a method to predict the potency of CYP2C inductions considering the mechanism. We first investigated the relations of CYP2C induction with CYP3A4 or CYP2B6 induction in human hepatocytes after 48-h exposure with 19 inducers. The fold-induction values of CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 were well correlated with those of CYP3A4, whereas the inducers were separated into 2 groups showing different correlations with CYP2B6 induction for CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 induction. In the regression models established, the fold-induction values of CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 were well expressed as the functions of those of CYP3A4 and CYP2B6, while no such obvious correlation was observed for CYP2C19 induction. These results suggest that CYP2Cs are not simply coinduced with CYP3A4 and that CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 inductions are regulated by both pregnane X receptor and constitutive androstane receptor with different contributions. Finally, simple correlations were proposed using the experimental Emax values obtained and plasma concentrations of CYP2C9 substrates from the literature, and positive correlations were observed. These data provide methods to estimate the clinical impact of CYP2C9 induction from in vitro data.
