Cyp2c66, a cytochrome P450 enzyme, exhibits diverse functions, including caffeine oxidase, heme binding, and monooxygenase activities. Acting upstream of hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation, Cyp2c66 plays a crucial role in cellular processes. Located in the cytoplasm and intracellular membrane-bounded organelles, Cyp2c66 has been implicated in diseases such as Plasmodium falciparum malaria, end-stage renal disease, eosinophilic esophagitis, invasive aspergillosis, and multiple chemical sensitivity. As an ortholog of CYP2C19, Cyp2c66 is part of the cytochrome P450 family.
Activation of Cyp2c66 involves both direct and indirect mechanisms mediated by various chemicals. Direct activators, such as Rifampicin, Indomethacin, and Troleandomycin, upregulate Cyp2c66 expression, stimulating caffeine oxidase and monooxygenase activities. Indirect activators, like Auranofin, Quercetin, and Sulforaphane, modulate Nrf2 pathway, enhancing Cyp2c66 expression and activity. The general mechanisms of activation revolve around the modulation of Cyp2c66 expression and function through cytochrome P450 and Nrf2 pathways, contributing to its crucial role in xenobiotic metabolism and cellular processes. Understanding these activators provides insights into potential strategies for manipulating Cyp2c66 activity in various physiological contexts.
