Abstract
The objection of this study was to investigate the effects of vindoline(VDL) on the cytochrome P450 (CYP 450) isoforms (CYP1A2, 2B, 2C11, 2D1 and 3A) in rats. Firstly, the rats were randomly divided into VDL pretreatment group and blank group, each group had six rats. VDL pretreatment group was administrated VDL (20 mg·kg-1) by oral gavage for fifteen days consecutively, and the equivalent CMC-Na solution without VDL was given to the blank group by gavage. Secondly, a cocktail of caffeine, bupropion, diclofenac, dextromethorphan and midazolam was then administered on the sixteenth day. Finally, blood samples were collected at the specified time point, and the plasma concentration of the probe drug was determined by UHPLC-QTOF-MS/MS. The effects of VDL on the activity of these CYP enzymes in rats were evaluated by pharmacokinetic parameters. VDL pretreatment group compared with the blank group, accelerated the metabolism of diclofenac, and weakened the metabolism of caffeine. These results suggested that VDL could induce the activity of CYP2C11, and inhibits the activity of CYP1A2, but had no significant effects on CYP2B, CYP2D1 and CYP3A. The results in this study can provide beneficial information for the later clinical application of VDL.
