Abstract: This study developed a method for simultaneously assessing the inhibitory potency of compounds on five major cytochrome P-450 (CYP450) enzymes using a cocktail of probe substrates. A cocktail selective substrates consisting of the phenacetin (PN, CYP1A2), dextromethorphan (DM, CYP2D6), tolbutamide (TB, CYP2C9), omeprazole (OPZ, CYP2C19) and midazolam (MPZ, CYP3A4) was incubated with human liver microsomes. The concentrations of the substrate metabolites —— paracetamol, dextrorphan, 4-hydroxytolbutamide, 5-hydroxyomeprazole and 1′-hydroxymidazolam were determined by LC/MS/MS in a single assay sample. The method was validated by incubating known CYP inhibitors —— α-naphthoflavone (ANF, CYP1A2), quinidine (QND, CYP2D6), sulfaphenazole (SUL, CYP2C9), fluconazole (FLU, CYP2C19) and ketoconazole (KET, CYP3A4) with the individual substrates and with the substrate cocktail. The IC₅₀ values were then determined. The IC₅₀s (μmol·L^-1) were in good agreement with those obtained with individual substrates (α-naphthoflavone, 0.18 vs 0.26; quinidine, 0.058 5 vs 0.058 4; sulfaphenazole, 0.48 vs 0.45; fluconazol, 17.5 vs 11.4; ketoconazole, 0.22 vs 0.24) and with previously reported values in the literature. This cocktail probe substrate method can be utilized for the rapid simultaneous determination of the inhibition potential of compounds on the five CYP450 enzymes.
