摘要：

The depressant effect of interferon-α on drug metabolizing activity in the liver has been investigated in 12 patients with chronic active hepatitis B. 7-methoxy-coumarin (7-MC) O-demethylase and 7-ethoxycoumarin (7-EC) O-deethylase, in specimens obtained by liver biopsy, were measured before and after interferon treatment. 7-MC and 7-EC O-dealkylase activity were significantly reduced after interferon treatment, from 13.4 to 9.24 nmol·g-1 liver·min-1, and from 3.22 to 2.16 nmol·g-1 liver·min-1, respectively. The magnitude of the fall varied widely between individual patients. The study provides the first direct evidence that interferon-α can impair the activity of drug metabolizing enzymes in the human liver. © 1990 Springer-Verlag.
