## Abstract Cytochrome P450IIE1 is involved in the metabolic activation of many xenobiotics involved with human toxicity. In particular, cellular concentrations of P450IIE1 are significantly induced by the most widely abused drug in our society today, alcohol. As a result, the synthesis and degrada

## Abstract Copper toxicity has been associated to the capacity of free copper ions to catalyze the production of superoxide anion and hydroxyl radical, reactive species that modify the structure and/or function of biomolecules. In addition, nonspecific Cu^2+^βbinding to thiol enzymes, which modifi
## Abstract The inhibitory effects of flavonoids on the human cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) were examined. Among flavonoids tested, galangin, kaempferol, chrysin, and apigenin were potent inhibitors. Although apigenin belonging to flavones and genistein belonging to isoflavones are similar in the ch
