Abstract excerpt
To study mechanisms behind the interindividual variability in CYP3A expression and the relative contribution of the different CYP3A enzymes to the overall CYP3A activity, we have analyzed CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP3A43, and PXR mRNA and CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 protein expression, catalytic activity, and polymorphism in the CYP3A5 gene in a panel of 46 Caucasian human livers. Protein quantification was performed by Western...
