Ia. Amirova, EXPERIMENTAL-STUDY OF THE ACTIVITY OF CYT OCHROME-P-450 MONOOXYGENASESYSTEM UNDER THE EFFECT OF ALPHA-TOCOPHEROL AND PHENOBARBITAL, Vestnik dermatologii i venerologii, (6), 1994, pp. 25-26
Experimental studies of the effects of alpha-tocopherol and phenobarbi
tal on the enzymatic activity in the system of cytochrome P-450, makin
g use of the antipyrine test, revealed prolongation of antipyrine half
life after administration of alpha-tocopherol and its shortening under
the effect of phenobarbital. The results point to an inhibitory effec
t of alpha-tocopherol and inductor activity of phenobarbital towards c
ytochrome P-450 enzymes.
