Flavonoids, potent inhibitors of the human P-form phenolsulfotransferase. Potential role in drug metabolism and chemoprevention.
1996
The common dietary constituent quercetin was a potent inhibitor of sulfoconjugation of acetaminophen and minoxidil by human liver cytosol, partially purified P-form phenolsulfotransferase (PST), and recombinant P-form PST, with IC50 values of 0.025-0.095 microM. Quercetin inhibition of acetaminophen was noncompetitive with respect to acceptor substrate, with a Ki value of 0.067 microM. A number of other flavonoids, such as fisetin, galangin, myricetin, kaempferol, chrysin, and apigenin, were also potent inhibitors of P-form PST-mediated sulfation, with IC50 values
