Screening of mitragynine as inhibitors of CYP3A activity in HLM

Inhibition was detected.  Cutoff used —

50% inhibition at the highest tested concentration

midazolam 708298

mitragynine

1'-hydroxymidazolam

  • CYP3A

Cell fraction Pooled human liver microsomes -7999662

Results

Mitragynine and kratom extracts showed concentration-dependent inhibition of CYP activity in HLM. Mitragynine at 10 µM inhibited CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A activity by 42%, 87%, and 50%, respectively. Kratom extracts at 20 µg/mL inhibited these activities by 81-88%, 87-93%, and 86-89%, respectively.

Experimental Conditions

Methanol (0.8 % v/v) served as solvent control. Sulphaphenazole (1 µM), quinidine (2 µM), and ketoconazole (0.01 µM) served as positive control inhibitors of CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A, respectively.
