| Abstract | A number of furanocoumarins isolated from grapefruit juice have been found to inhibit CYP3A4 activity in vitro. In this study, we have designed and synthesised a range of analogues based on bergamottin to investigate the relationship between chemical structure and inhibition of CYP3A4 activity. Studies were performed using human liver microsomes and human intestinal S9 fraction, with testosterone as the marker substrate. With the exception of the coumarin and phenolic furanocoumarin derivatives, which were inactive, the alkyloxy-furanocoumarin analogues were found to inhibit CYP3A4 activity in a dose dependent manner, with observed IC50 values ranging from 0.13 ± 0.03 to 49.3 ± 1.9 µM. The unsaturated furan derivatives were found to exhibit time-dependent inhibition, showing a 2-, 4- and 14-fold increase in potency for 6′,7′-epoxybergamottin, 6′,7′-dihydroxybergamottin and bergamottin, respectively after a preincubation period of ten minutes. Reduction of the furan moiety resulted in an 11-fold decrease in inhibitory potency, suggesting that this functional group is key to the interaction between these compounds and CYP3A4. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
