The use of 3-[2-(N,N-diethyl-N-methylammonium)ethyl]-7-methoxy-4-methylcoumarin (AMMC) as a specific CYP2D6 probe in human liver microsomes.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recently, a novel nonfluorescent probe 3-[2-(N,N-diethyl-N-methylammonium)-ethyl]-7-methoxy-4-methylcoumarin (AMMC), which produces a fluorescent metabolite AMHC (3-[2-(N,N-diethyl-N-methylammonium)ethyl]-7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin) was used with microsomes containing recombinant enzymes (rCYP) to monitor CYP2D6 inhibition in a microtiter plate assay. This article describes the studies that were performed in human liver microsomes (HLM) to establish the selectivity of AMMC toward CYP2D6. Metabolism studies in HLM showed that AMMC was converted to one metabolite identified by mass spectrometry as AMHC. Kinetic studies indicated an apparent K(m) of 3 microM with a V(max) of 20 pmol/min. mg of protein for the O-demethylation reaction. The O-demethylation of AMMC in HLM was inhibited significantly in the presence of a CYP2D6 inhibitory antibody. Using a panel of various HLM preparations (n = 12), a good correlation (r(2) = 0.95) was obtained between AMMC O-demethylation and bufuralol metabolism, a known CYP2D6 substrate, but not with probes for the other major xenobiotic metabolizing CYPs. Finally, only rCYP2D6 showed detectable metabolism in experiments conducted with rCYPs using AMMC at a concentration of 1.5 microM (near K(m)). However, at a concentration of 25 microM AMMC, rCYP1A also contributed significantly to the formation of AMHC. Knowing the experimental conditions under which AMMC was selective for CYP2D6, a microtiter assay was developed to study the inhibition of various compounds in HLM using the fluorescence of AMHC as an indication of CYP2D6 activity. The inhibition potential of various chemicals was found to be comparable to those determined using the standard CYP2D6 probe, bufuralol, which requires high-performance liquid chromatography separation for the analysis of its CYP2D6-mediated 1'-hydoxylated metabolite.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
