Abstract: AIM: To evaluate whether 5-hydroxytriptolide (T8) is a direct inhibitior or time-dependent inhibitor of CYP3A/5, CYP2D6, CYP2C9, CYP1A2, CYP2C19, CYP2B6 and CYP2C8, and to evaluate the potential of drug-drug interaction with the substrates of above seven CYPs in clinical study, which provide a reference for clinical drug-drug interaction study.METHODS: IC50 and IC50 shift method were used in this study.RESULTS: The IC50 of T8 on above seven CYPs was more than 100 μmol/L in direct inhibition experiment, and no IC50 shift occurred in time-dependent inhibition experiment.CONCLUSION: T8 is neither a direct inhibitor nor time-dependent inhibitor of above seven CYPs, and the potential of drug-drug interaction caused by T8 inhibition on CYP450 isozymes is slim.
