Abstract

Discovery of the new drug or evaluation of chemical moiety which possesses drug like properties are need to be check for cytochrome P450 studies. Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes responsible and involved in variety of biochemical reaction. It plays vital role in detoxification of xenobiotics (Drugs, foreign particles, toxins etc) with the help of metabolism processes. It also has important function for the synthesis of various messengers or hormones. In vitro CYP450 studies responsible for the determination of pharmacokinetics parameters like half-life and clearance of drugs. Inhibition of CYP450 and induction of CYP450 undergoes drug-drug interaction. Concomitant medication can induce or inhibit the CYP450, resulting in drug adverse reaction. Interindividual efficacy of drug and disease susceptibility depends on the genetic polymorphism in CYP gene. During the drug discovery process, experiments designed set to check the metabolism of drug by various isoforms of CYPs like CYP1A2, 2B6, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6 and 3A4 associated metabolism. Novel COVID-19 disease progress due to multiplication of SARS-CoV-02 viruses in the human’s body and transmit to other person by contaminated droplets. Since it is novel disease, mortality rate high due to lack of evidenced based clinical studies.
