Grapefruit juice (GFJ) has been shown to affect the pharmacokinetics of a large number of drugs, essentially by inhibition of efflux transporters and CYP3A4 monooxygenase in the small intestine. The GFJ dose usually used in human studies was one glass single-strength (1 x). Information on a respective dose-response relationship is not available. We investigated the effect of GFJ of different concentration (0.25x, 0.5x, 1 x, 2x) dosed in biweekly intervals in 19 volunteers. Components considered responsible for drug interactions, naringin, naringenin, bergamottin, and 6',7'-dihydroxybergamottin were determined by LC-tandem mass spectrometry. Immediately after ingestion of GFJ, participants took an aqueous solution of dextromethorphan (DEX) as probe drug. Urine was collected in two sampling periods, 0-2 and 2-4 h, and excreted amounts of DEX and five metabolites associated with CYP3A4 and/or CYP2D6 enzyme activity were determined. Effects of GFJ were analyzed by the Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test against an average of four water control experiments. Two effects were highly significant: (i) a delay of total metabolite excretion in the first 2 h and (ii) an inhibition of the CYP3A4-dependent metabolic pathways. Effect magnitude and significance levels were dose-dependent and indicated 200 ml 1 x GFJ as lowest observed effect level LOEL. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
