Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacokinetics of nortriptyline and its 10-hydroxy metabolite in Chinese subjects of different CYP2D6 genotypes.

TL;DR: To study the impact of the CYP2D6*10 allele on the disposition of nortriptyline in Chinese subjects, a large number of subjects were randomly assigned to either the H1N1 or H2N2 allele.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mass fragmentographic quantitation of glutamic acid and γ-aminobutyric acid in cerebellar nuclei and sympathetic ganglia of rats

TL;DR: A method for the simultaneous quantitation of glutamic acid and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in tissue by mass fragmentography has been developed and has been demonstrated by measurements in parts of rat cerebellum and in the superior cervical ganglion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amitriptyline metabolism: association with debrisoquin hydroxylation in nonsmokers.

TL;DR: The data suggest that there may be a common regulation of the hydroxylation of D and the oxidative metabolism of amitriptyline in nonsmokers, and it is hypothesized that an additional demethylase/hydroxylase is induced in smokers that is not involved in D hydroxyation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of the sulfoxidation of omeprazole by ketoconazole in poor and extensive metabolizers of S‐mephenytoin

TL;DR: Ketoconazole was used as a probe to investigate the extent to which CYP3A4 is involved in omeprazole metabolism in vivo and to speculate on the predominant pathway in individuals devoid of the genetically determined CYP2C19 activity.
