Abstrakt: Many drugs are metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. Recent studies have shown that CYP-substrate drugs reach the CYP active site after entering the lipid hydrophobic part of the ER membrane. To clarify the role of cholesterol (Chol) in the CYP-related drug metabolic process, we investigated the lipid bilayer entry of CYP-substrate drugs using a model membrane system as follows. The model membrane system comprised palmitoyl-oleoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (POPE) and Chol. Phosphatidylethanolamine is the second major phospholipid component of ER membranes. Chlorzoxazone (CZX) was used as the CYP-substrate drug. Calorimetric measurements showed that the addition of CZX to POPE bilayers decreased the gel-liquid crystal phase transition temperature; X-ray diffraction indicated that CZX distributes into the liquid crystal phase bilayers but not practically the gel phase POPE bilayers. In the presence of Chol, dialysis and X-ray structural analyses showed that Chol inhibited CZX entry into the bilayer with an increase in Chol concentration. The Chol concentration in the ER membrane (5-10 mol%) is much lower than that in the plasma membrane (approximately 30 mol%). This fact may allow CYP-substrate drugs to enter the hydrophobic portion of the ER membrane more easily than other organelle membranes, yielding efficient drug metabolism.
