| Abstract | Gambogic acid (GA) was approved by the Chinese Food and Drug Administration for phase II clinical trials in patients with solid tumors. Recently, combinations of GA and chemotherapeutic agents have represented a promising therapeutic approach for cancer. However, little is known about the effect of GA on drug metabolism enzymes. In this study, we report for the first time that GA is a potent repressor of the cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) enzyme, which is responsible for the oxidative metabolism of more than 60% of all pharmaceuticals. After HepG2 cells were treated with GA, the expression of CYP3A4 decreased at both the mRNA and protein levels, and CYP3A4 enzymatic activity was also reduced. Moreover, GA-mediated repression of CYP3A4 occurred after the decrease of PXR. Knockdown of PXR decreased CYP3A4 at the mRNA and protein levels, whereas PXR overexpression increased the CYP3A4 mRNA and protein levels. GA markedly decreased CYP3A4 expression in both normal and PXR overexpressing cells. Meanwhile, differentiated embryonic chondrocyte gene 1 (DEC1) expression rapidly increased in response to GA treatment, and subsequently, CYP3A4 expression continuously decreased. Overexpression of DEC1 decreased CYP3A4 mRNA and protein levels, and knockdown of DEC1 partially abolished the GA-mediated decrease in CYP3A4 expression. Taken together, our data suggest that two transcriptional factors, PXR and DEC1, are involved in the GA-mediated suppression of CYP3A4 in HepG2 cells. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
