CYP3A4 Substrates

Santa Cruz Biotechnology now offers a broad range of CYP3A4 Substrates for use in various applications. CYP3A4 substrates are essential tools in the study of cytochrome P450 3A4, one of the most important enzymes in the cytochrome P450 family, which is involved in the metabolism of a wide range of endogenous and exogenous compounds. CYP3A4 is responsible for the oxidation of a variety of substrates, including steroids, fatty acids, and xenobiotics, making it a key player in drug metabolism and the detoxification processes within the liver. Researchers utilize CYP3A4 substrates to investigate how this enzyme metabolizes different compounds, allowing for the assessment of metabolic pathways, enzyme kinetics, and the identification of potential drug interactions. These substrates are widely used in in vitro assays to measure CYP3A4 activity, helping scientists to understand how variations in CYP3A4 expression or function can influence individual responses to drugs, as well as the potential for adverse drug reactions. Furthermore, CYP3A4 substrates are invaluable in high-throughput screening assays for the discovery and development of new agents, as they help identify how new drugs are metabolized and their potential impact on CYP3A4-mediated pathways. The ability to accurately measure CYP3A4 activity using these substrates is crucial for advancing research in toxicology and personalized medicine.
