Sex is a major determinant of CYP3A4 expression in human liver

2003-09-25

Abstract excerpt

Many drugs that are substrates of CYP3A4, the major human drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450 (CYP), show higher clearance in women than in men. Although this effect is believed to be related to drug metabolism, the underlying cause has not been elucidated. We investigated CYP3A4 in a large collection (n = 94) of well-characterized surgical liver samples and found 2-fold higher CYP3A4 levels in female compared with...
