Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome P450 3A4, the most abundant P450 form in human liver, exhibits a very broad substrate specificity and is of great importance for drug metabolism. The interindividual difference in the hepatic expression of CYP3A4 is considerable. In order to investigate possible genetic factor(s) causing this variation, the rate of 6beta-hydroxylation of testosterone in human liver microsomes prepared from 46 different...
