RESUMO
In this study, we investigated the effect of type 1 diabetes mellitus on the modulation of the activities of CYP450s in dynamics by a UHPLC-MS/MS method. The diabetic rat model was constructed by an intraperitoneal single injection of streptozotocin. Fasting blood glucose levels > 16.7 mmol/L were considered as diabetic. The rats were given a cocktail of four probe drugs (10 mg/kg phenacetin, 1 mg/kg tolbutamide, 10 mg/kg metoprolol, and 10 mg/kg midazolam) by oral administration for the pharmacokinetic study. Thereafter, the metabolic ratio (MR) of the metabolites to probe substrates were determined. The results indicated that two weeks after diabetes was induced, diabetes increased the MRs of acetaminophen/phenacetin (CYP1A2) and 4-hydroxyl tolbutamide/tolbutamide (CYP2C9); however, it decreased the MRs of α-hydroxy metoprolol/metoprolol (CYP2D6) and 1-hydroxy midazolam/midazolam (CYP3A4). Two months after diabetes was induced, diabetes increased the MRs of acetaminophen/phenacetin and 4-hydroxyl tolbutamide/tolbutamide. The MR of α-hydroxy metoprolol/metoprolol was decreased and the MR of 1-hydroxy midazolam/midazolam was increased but the difference was not significant. According to the results, CYP1A2 and CYP2C9 activities were enhanced in the diabetic rats. and CYP2D6 activity was inhibited in a short period of diabetes; however, the decrease in CYP2D6 activity was not significant in the long period. CYP3A4 activity was decreased in a short period of diabetes and increased in a long period of diabetes but was not significant in the two periods. This study suggests the activity change rule of the CYP450 enzyme system in diabetes mellitus, which can provide a reference for precise clinical medication.
