| Abstract | Cisapride is a prokinetic drug that is widely used to facilitate gastrointestinal tract motility. Structurally, cisapride is a substituted piperidinyl benzamide that interacts with 5-hydroxytryptamine-4 receptors and which is largely without central depressant or antidopaminergic side-effects. The aims of this study were to investigate the metabolism of cisapride in human liver microsomes and to determine which cytochrome P-450 (CYP) isoenzyme(s) are involved in cisapride biotransformation. Additionally, the effects of various drugs on the metabolism of cisapride were investigated. The major in vitro metabolite of cisapride was formed by oxidative N-dealkylation at the piperidine nitrogen, leading to the production of norcisapride. By using competitive inhibition data, correlation studies and heterologous expression systems, it was demonstrated that CYP3A4 was the major CYP involved. CYP2A6 also contributed to the metabolism of cisapride, albeit to a much lesser extent. The mean apparent K(m) against cisapride was 8.6+/-3.5 microM (n = 3). The peak plasma levels of cisapride under normal clinical practice are approximately 0.17 microM; therefore it is unlikely that cisapride would inhibit the metabolism of co-administered drugs. In this in vitro study the inhibitory effects of 44 drugs were tested for any effect on cisapride biotransformation. In conclusion, 34 of the drugs are unlikely to have a clinically relevant interaction; however, the antidepressant nefazodone, the macrolide antibiotic troleandomycin, the HIV-1 protease inhibitors ritonavir and indinavir and the calcium channel blocker mibefradil inhibited the metabolism of cisapride and these interactions are likely to be of clinical relevance. Furthermore, the antimycotics ketoconazole, miconazole, hydroxy-itraconazole, itraconazole and fluconazole, when administered orally or intravenously, would inhibit cisapride metabolism. |

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.
