CYP3A4 — IL6
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Jover et al., FASEB J 2002
(MAP Kinase Signaling System) :
Our research has focused on the negative
regulation of
CYP3A4 ( the major drug metabolizing human CYP ) by
interleukin 6 (IL-6) ( the principal regulator of the hepatic acute-phase response )
Yang et al., Toxicol Lett 2010
:
Meanwhile, the
repression of
CYP3A4 by
IL-6 occurred after the decrease of pregnane X receptor (PXR) in human hepatocytes ... The PXR overexpressed cells ( transfected with human PXR ) increased the CYP3A4 mRNA level, and the
repression of
CYP3A4 by
IL-6 was greater in the PXR overexpressed cells than in the control cells ... Collectively, our study suggests that PXR is necessary for
IL-6 mediated repression of the
CYP3A4 expression in human hepatocytes
Dickmann et al., Drug Metab Dispos 2011
:
A monoclonal antibody directed against IL-6 abolished or partially blocked
IL-6 mediated suppression of CYP1A2 and
CYP3A4 enzyme activity, respectively
Zhang et al., Expert Rev Clin Pharmacol 2011
(Arthritis, Rheumatoid) :
Tocilizumab exposures are not affected by common concomitant medications in RA patients, but decreased
IL-6 activity
resulted in increased
CYP3A4 activity and hence decreased exposures of CYP3A4 substrates
Kim et al., Rheumatol Int 2012
(Arthritis, Rheumatoid) :
CYP3A4 mRNA expression was most
reduced by
IL-6 followed by CYP2C9 and CYP2C19
