Abstract

The purpose of study is to identify hepatic enzyme(s) responsible for the decrease in the formation of mefenamic acid-quinoneimine (MFAQI), which may be a reactive metabolite of mefenamic acid. The CYP1A2-mediated MFAQI formation was significantly decreased by human liver cytosol. Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) was identified, by purification from cytosol, as an enzyme decreasing MFAQI. Cytotoxicity by MFA in CYP1A2-overexpressed HepG2 cells was enhanced by knockdown of SOD. Thus, we found that SOD1 has a role to decrease MFAQI production, which may be due to scavenging of superoxide.
