Abstract excerpt
The CYP2C subfamily metabolizes many clinically important drugs. These genes respond to prototypical inducers such as phenobarbital and rifampicin, yet little has been reported on the mechanisms of induction. This report examines the regulation of CYP2C9 with respect to two specific receptors thought to be involved in phenobarbital (PB) induction, the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) and pregnane X receptor...
