Characterization of the interferences of systemic azole antifungal drugs with adrenal steroid biosynthesis using H295R cells and enzyme activity assays
Azole antifungals, designed to inhibit fungal CYP51, have a liability to inhibit human CYP enzymes. Whilst drug-metabolizing CYPs are covered in preclinical safety assessment, those metabolizing endogenous bioactive molecules are usually not. Posaconazole and itraconazole were recently found to caus...
