Application

Oxidized Nifedipine may be used:
  • to study enzyme kinetics using UV high-performance liquid chromatography (UV-HPLC)
  • as a standard in calibration curve preparation in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the quantification of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4)-mediated nifedipine oxidation in human microsomes
  • in nifedipine metabolism activity assay of Hep G2 cells transfected with hepatocyte nuclear factor-1α(HNF1α)

Oxidized nifedipine has been used for apoptotic signaling studies in dopaminergic neurons.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nifedipine is a dihydropyridine derivative and a calcium channel blocker. It is used in treating hypertension and angina pectoris. Oxidized Nifedipine is an oxidation product of nifedipine generated either by exposure to UV or day light. The enzyme cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A4) metabolizes nifedipine.
CYP3A4 nifedipine metabolite. Nifedipine (parent compound) is an antianginal and antihypertensive agent.
