Interindividual variations of debrisoquine metabolism was recently identified in non-human primates tested in vivo. The catalytical and immunological characterization of cytochrome P450IID subfamily was undertaken in hepatic microsomes from extensive metabolizer primates. The NADPH/O2 mediated metabolism of debrisoquine, dextromethorphan and

Debrisoquine is an antihypertensive drug that is metabolized by cytochrome P4502D6. Deficient metabolism is inherited as an autosomal recessive condition. We previously reported in a case-control study that extensive metabolizers of debrisoquine were at greater risk of lung cancer compared

Debrisoquine and sparteine are prototype substrates of a genetic deficiency in cytochrome P450-dependent drug metabolism. Sensitive assays of in vitro oxidation of sparteine and debrisoquine are required for evaluation of this polymorphism. The activities were measured by quantitative analysis of

The microsomal N-hydroxylation of the strongly basic guanidinium group (debrisoquine) to N-hydroxyguanidine (N-hydroxydebrisoquine) and the retroreduction of the N-hydroxyguanidine are demonstrated for the first time. The reduction of the N-hydroxyguanidine by liver homogenates and hepatocytes is catalysed by a microsomal
