| Protein Function |
A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of fatty acids, steroids and retinoids (PubMed:18698000, PubMed:19965576, PubMed:20972997, PubMed:21289075, PubMed:21576599). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (NADPH--hemoprotein reductase) (PubMed:18698000, PubMed:19965576, PubMed:20972997, PubMed:21289075, PubMed:21576599). Catalyzes the epoxidation of double bonds of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) (PubMed:19965576, PubMed:20972997). Metabolizes endocannabinoid arachidonoylethanolamide (anandamide) to 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid ethanolamide (20-HETE-EA) and 8,9-, 11,12-, and 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid ethanolamides (EpETrE-EAs), potentially modulating endocannabinoid system signaling (PubMed:18698000, PubMed:21289075). Catalyzes the hydroxylation of carbon-hydrogen bonds. Metabolizes cholesterol toward 25-hydroxycholesterol, a physiological regulator of cellular cholesterol homeostasis (PubMed:21576599). Catalyzes the oxidative transformations of all-trans retinol to all-trans retinal, a precursor for the active form all-trans-retinoic acid (PubMed:10681376). Also involved in the oxidative metabolism of drugs such as antiarrhythmics, adrenoceptor antagonists, and tricyclic antidepressants.

| Recommended Action | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Management | Concomitant use of pirfenidone with moderate or potent inhibitors of CYP450 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and/or 2E1 in addition to a moderate or potent inhibitor of CYP450 1A2 (e.g., certain fluoroquinolones, oral contraceptives, deferasirox, methoxsalen, mexiletine, thiabendazole, ticlopidine, zileuton) should be avoided. No particular precaution is necessary if pirfenidone and CYP450 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and/or 2E1 inhibitors are coadministered without a moderate or potent CYP450 1A2 inhibitor. | ||||||||
