Please note this is a comparison between Version 1 by Maria L Perepechaeva and Version 5 by Rita Xu.

CYP3A is an enzyme subfamily in the cytochrome P450 (CYP) superfamily and includes isoforms CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP3A7, and CYP3A43. CYP3A enzymes are indiscriminate toward substrates and are unique in that these enzymes metabolize both endogenous compounds and diverse xenobiotics. Constitutive regulation of CYP3A4 transcription, both positive and negative, is mediated by hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α) and other hepatic transcription factors. CYP3A4 expression is modulated by various mechanisms involving nuclear receptors, hormones, xenobiotics, and signaling molecules. CYP3A4 is regulated by a large number of xenobiotics, including many drugs, endogenous compounds, and many hormones, such as triiodothyronine, dexamethasone, and growth hormone. Xenobiotic- and endobiotic-mediated CYP3A4 induction is indirect and entails activation of such ligand-dependent nuclear receptors as PXR, CAR, VDR, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) α, estrogen receptor (ER) α, bile acid receptor (farnesoid X receptor; FXR), oxysterol receptor (liver X receptor; LXR), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) as well as by binding to the three major cis-acting modules: CLEM4, distal XREM, and prPXRE.

CYP3A is an enzyme subfamily in the cytochrome P450 (CYP) superfamily and includes isoforms CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP3A7, and CYP3A43. CYP enzymes are responsible for approximately three-quarters of all drug metabolism reactions in the human body. CYP enzymes are involved in many critical metabolic reactions, including the metabolism of steroid hormones, bile acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, leukotrienes, and eicosanoids. CYP3A enzymes are widely expressed in human organs and tissues, and consequences of these enzymes’ activities play a major role both in normal regulation of physiological levels of endogenous compounds and in various pathological conditions.

1. Introduction

The CYP3A subfamily is affiliated with the cytochrome P450 (CYP) superfamily, which represents monooxygenases that catalyze the breakdown of various substances via hydroxylation and epoxidation with the participation of an electron donor (NADPH) and molecular oxygen [1]. CYP enzymes function as the first line of defense against exogenous chemical agents [2]. CYP enzymes are responsible for approximately three-quarters of all drug metabolism reactions in the human body [3][4][3,4]. CYP enzymes are involved in many critical metabolic reactions, including the metabolism of steroid hormones, bile acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, leukotrienes, and eicosanoids [3].

Genes of CYP enzymes have been found in the genetic material of representatives of all kingdoms of living organisms, including plants. There are 57 known functional CYP genes in the human genome, aside from 58 pseudogenes whose protein products are enzymes metabolizing a wide range of endogenous and exogenous chemical compounds [2][5][6][2,5,6]. The genes of CYP enzymes are categorized into 18 families and 43 subfamilies based on the percentage of amino acid sequence homology. Just 3 families—CYP2, CYP3, and CYP4—contain more genes than the other 15 families combined [4][7][3,7]. The human CYP3 family consists of a single subfamily, CYP3A, which contains four genes (CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP3A7, and CYP3A43) encoding four functional enzymes [5][6][8][9][10][5,6,8-10].

CYP3A is a major subfamily in the cytochrome P450 superfamily. CYP3A enzymes are involved in the metabolism of more than 30% [11] and according to other reports 45–60% [12][13][14][12,13] of all pharmaceutical drugs currently on the market. CYP3A enzymes also metabolize some endogenous substrates, including hormones and bile acids, as well as nonpharmaceutical xenobiotics [11][12][13][11,12,14].

Expression of CYP3A enzymes is regulated and varies under the influence of various exogenous (drugs, chemicals, and diets) and endogenous factors (fatty acids, hormones, cytokines, and microRNAs [miRs or miRNAs]) [11].

CYP3A enzymes’ activity can be influenced by anthropogenic environmental chemicals: organophosphates, carbamates, parabens, benzotriazole UV stabilizers, and plasticizers [11][12][11,12]. Natural compounds present in foods—e.g., flavonoids found in fruits and vegetables, coffee, tea, chocolate, and wine—can alter CYP3A enzymes’ expression [15]. A prime example is the inhibition of CYP3A enzymes’ expression by components of grapefruit juice [12][16][12,16]. There is experimental evidence that retinoids can regulate the expression of CYP3A genes [17]. Certain diets, such as high-fat diets, can alter the expression of CYP3A genes [18], and it is likely that human dietary habits can affect basal expression of these genes [11].

Many of these substances are in turn metabolized by induced CYP3A enzymes, and this feedback mechanism implements detoxification of potentially harmful compounds [12].

2. Mechanisms of CYP3A Regulation

1.1. Members of the CYP3A Subfamily: Localization of Genes in the Genome and of Enzymes in Tissues of the Body

CYP3A4To expression is modulated by various mechanisms involving nuclear receptors, hormones, xenobiotics,date, four functional enzymes belonging to the CYP3A subfamily have been identified in humans: CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP3A7, and CYP3A43 [5,6,8,9]. Each gene contains 13 exons with conserved exon–intron boundaries [10,19]. CYP3A isoenzymes are expressed mainly in the liver and signaling molecules.mall intestine CYP3A4 ias rwegulated by a large number of xenobiotics, including many drugs, endogenous compoundll as in the kidneys, adrenal glands, lungs, brain, prostate, testes, placenta, pancreas, and maskeletal muscles [5,6,8,9,11,14,20-23].

Iny hormones, such as triiodothyronine, dexamethasone, and growth hormonthe CYP3A subfamily, CYP3A4 is the major member participating in drug metabolism and is the predominant form of CYP3A in the [19].

CYP3A4 induction is indirec5 is the most abundant and entails activation of such ligand-dependent nuclear receptors as PXR, CAR, VDR, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) α, estrogen receptor (ER) α, bile acid receptor (farnesoid X receptor; FXR), oxysterol receptor (liver X receptor; LXR), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) [10][11][14][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] abest studied among minor isoforms of CYP3A [6,8]. CYP3A7 and CYP3A43 are underexpressed as compared to CYP3A4/5 [6,8]. Protein expression of CYP3A43 in human liver microsomes is ~15 times lower than that of CYP3A4 [24]. CYP3A7, a predominantly fetoplacental enzyme, is highly expressed in the liver and intestines of the embryo and fetus as well as byin the binding to the three majorendometrium and placenta, although it is detectable in the liver and small cis-acintestinge of modules: CLEM4, distalsome adults [5,6,8,12,23,25].

2. Mechanisms of CYP3A Regulation

2.1. Constitutive Regulation of CYP3A4 Transcription

When activated by a ligand, each of them formss alpha and beta (C/EBPα and C/EBPβ), and upstream transcription factor 1 (USF1) [10,32] via binding to three major cis-acting heterodimer with retinoid X receptor α (RXRα), relocates to the nucleus, binds to a modules: constitutive liver enhancer module 4 (CLEM4) (positions −11.4 to −10.5 kbp), the distal xenobiotic-response element, recrive enhancer module (XREM) (−7.2 to −7.8 kbp) and the proximal promoter (prP) [10].

When bouitsnd coactivators, and activateto DNA, HNF4α attracts CYP3A4 transcription. Estrogen receptor (ER) and glucocorticoid receptor (GR) raise CYP3A4 expression by enhancingcoactivators and other accessory proteins and positively regulates the expression of CAR, RXRα, and PXR. Ligand-activated farnesoid X receptor (FXR) uptarget genes. In the liver, HNF4α is located exclusively in the nucleus and regulates small heterodimer partner (SHP), which prevents the recruitment of coactivators to chromatin and/or forms heterodimers with RXRα, thereby inhibitithe constitutive expression of a large number of target genes, including CYP3A4 [33].

2.2. Regulation of CYP3A4 Transcription

After the binding of a ligand to LXR or Rs regulated by a large number of xenobiotics, including many drugs, endogenous compounds, and many hormones, such as triiodothyronine, dexamethasone, and growth hormone [34].

XR,enobiotic- the heterodimer changes its conformation, which leads to a release of corepressors and the recruitment of coactivators. This event causes transcription of a target gene (and endobiotic-mediated CYP3A4 induction is indirect and entails activation of such ligand-dependent nuclear receptors as PXR, CAR, VDR, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) α, estrogen receptor (ER) α, bile acid receptor (farnesoid X receptor; FXR), oxysterol receptor (liver X receptor; LXR), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha; PPARα(PPARα) [10, its protein product binds as a PPARα–RXRα heterodime11,14,35-50] as well as by binding to the three major cis-actoing motifs DR1 and DR2 dules: CLEM4, distal XREM, and prPXRE [10].

2.3. Negative Regulation of CYP3A Enzymes

Suppression Hypoxiaf CYP3A agend inflammation inducees is mediated by the activityation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and promote a release of the cytokines that increase the [51]. In addition, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) attenuates PXR-mediated transcription of CCAAT enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPβ) anal activation induced theby translation rifampicin in vitrof C/EBPβ-LIP mRNA [51,52]. C/EBPβ-LIP competes with C/EBPαroteins p53, NF-κB, and C/EBPβ-LAP for binding to response elements-LIP are involved in the promoterrepression of CYP3A4, thus lowering its expressiongene activity [9]. NF-κB activates miR-155, which directly targets mRNAs of suppressors of cytokine signaling proteins (especiallyion plays an important role in the suppressorion of cCYP3A genes by disruptokine signaling 1: SOCS1) thereby inhibiting obligatory negative feedback ing the binding of the PXR–RXRα complex to DNA [53].

2.4.2. Genetic Polymorphisms of CYP3A Genes and Their Influence on the Activity of CYP3A Enzymes

Thuthough members of the CYP3A subfamily share high identity of amino acid and DNA sequences, their tissue- and age-specific expression patterns and substrate specificity differ considerably [55]. Genetic polymorphisms are a major cause of inter-individual differences, mostin CYP3A inducers act through transcriptional actexpression and function [3,56].

2.4.4. CYP3A Inhibitors

CYP3A enzymes consists of thme stabilization of CYP3A mRNAs and proteinstabolize a variety [6][11].

Molecularf mechanisms of induction may differcompounds among the four major humanwhich CYP3A genes and almong their polymorphic variants owing to differences in their structure, and the mechanisms can also differ among different tissues, possibly because of different ratios of crucial protein factors. This complexity is a consequencest the only common feature is lipophilicity and relatively large size; therefore, it is not surprising that many of the wide range of CYP3A ligands and of nuclear receptors mediating the inductionse compounds act as inhibitors of CYP3A genzymes [9][13][57].

3. Involvement of CYP3A Enzymes in Biological Processes

CYP3A enzymes have very broad substrate specificity and metabolize a wide range of compounds in terms of chemical and biological properties. They catalyze reactions of hydroxylation, N-demethylation, O-dealkylation, S-oxidation, deamination, and epoxidation [35] [23] of endogenous and exogenous compounds. CYP3A perform physiological functions by taking part in such endogenous processes as steroid catabolism, bile acid metabolism, and lipid and vitamin D metabolism. CYP3A enzymes metabolize a wide variety of therapeutics and may play an important role in alterations of biological activities of drugs or in enhanced clearance of drugs as well as in drug interactions. For instance, CYP3A enzymes’ substrates are such endogenous compounds as hormones, cholesterol, bile acids, arachidonic acid, and vitamin D as well as the vast majority of drugs and of xenobiotics that are not pharmaceuticals [11][12][13][11,12,14].

4. CYP3A Involvement in Pathological Processes

3.1. Metabolism of Endogenous Compounds

3.1.1. Biotransformation of Cholesterol and Bile Acids by CYP3A Enzymes

CYP3A enzymes are involved in cholestasis is a pathologerol and bile acid metabolic pathways [58-60]. Cholesterol is metabolized to 4β-hydroxycholesterol [13] and to 25-hydroxycholesterol by CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 [13,61].

CYP3A enzymes participal condition where normal flowte in bile acid biotransformation [58-60]. CYP3A enzymes are associated with a minor pathway for the biosynthesis of primary cholate of bile is low or disturbed, and bile acids accumulate in thacids. 25-Hydroxylation of 5β-cholestan-3α,7α,12α-triol, which is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of cholic acid, is catalyzed by CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 [62].

3.1.2. Biotransformation of Hormones by CYP3A Enzymes

CYP3A enzymes liver. Stimulation ofplay an important part in hormonal homeostasis. With regard to steroid hormones, the CYP3A4 activity in cholestasis may be an effective subfamily plays an important role in the metabolism of androgens (testosterone, androstenedione, dehydroepiandrosterone, and dihydrotestosterone), progesterone, cortisol, and their metabolites [10,12,14].

3.1.3. Biotransformation of Vitamin D by the CYP3A Subfamily

In the liverapeutic approach to such diseases [19] and small intestine, CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 are involved in vitamin D metabolism [22].

3.1.4. Biotransformation of Arachidonic Acid by CYP3A Enzymes

Arachidonic acid is metabolites known as eicosanoithe precursor to various physiologically active molecules such as epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), whoseich emergence depends on CYP3A-are a class of functionally bioactive lipid mediated meors derived from the metabolism, are implicated in the pathophysiology of various diseases. For example, of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids under the action of multiple enzymes of three main families, including cyclooxygenases, lipoxygenases, and cytochromes P450 [63,64].

3.2. Biotransformation of Exogenous Compounds

The substherates of CYP3A4 epoxygenase, res enzymes are a wide range of prescription drugs as well as xenobiotics such as carcinogens benzo[a]pyrene, 7,8-dihydrondiol, and atlatoxin B [65,66].

CYP3A enzymesi can metable for the production of EETs, is overexpressed in breast cancer and is linked with olize many structurally and functionally distinct classes of drugs [34,67-77]. The involvement of CYP3A enzymes in the metabolism of most drugs underlies their main biomedical significance as enzymes that influence drug kinetics and as participants in drug interactions.

3.3. Endogenous and Exogenous Biomarkers of Activity of CYP3A Enzymes

Accurathe initiation and progression of breast cancerpredictions of the activity of CYP3A enzymes are needed to provide effective pharmacotherapy to predict treatment outcomes or potential adverse [36].effects of Invarious human hepatomtherapeutic agents and to assess the development and progression of diseases.

Resea rcell line Hep3B, overexpressionh is underway for identifying optimal endogenous biomarkers of the activity of CYP3A4 also promotes cell growth and cell cycle transition from the G1 to S phase enzymes, e.g., derivatives of cholesterol, of bile acids, or of steroid hormones, which can be quantified by measuring the concentration of certain compounds in a urine or blood sample without the introduction of xenobiotics into the human body [78]. Appropriate combinations of such markers [37].

Tshould make role oit possible to predict the activity of CYP3A enzymes in the mwhile taking into account contributions of different isoforms [11].

4. CYP3A Involvement in Pathological Processes

4.1. Diseases Related to the Participation of CYP3A Enzymes in Bile Acid Metabolism

Cholestabolism of sex steroid hormones implies an association with the development of hormone-depesis is a pathological condition where normal flow of bile is low or disturbed, and bile acids accumulate in the liver. The reason is either mechanical obstruction of bile ducts or defects in hepatic transporters [79]. The outcome is inflammation and damage to the bile ducts, followed by exposure of hepatocytes to high concentrations of bile acids, which can result in hepatocyte death [79,80]. For control over processes in the gastrointestinal tract in cholestatic conditions, the composition of bile acids and the size of their pool are important, and hydrophobic bile acids are especially cytotoxic [80,81].

Stimulationd of CYP3A4 activity in cholestasis may bent an effective therapeutic approach to such diseases [34].

New Itherapeut has long been known that CYP3A enzymes are expressed in nic approaches are being developed for the treatment of cholestatic pathologies, including agonists of FXR, which mediates the induction of CYP3A4 expression by bile acids [82]. Furthermore, other derivatives of natural bile acids have been proposed: “bile mimetics,” such as nor-ursodeoxycholic acid and obeticholic acid, which is a potent FXR agonist [83].

4.2. Diseases Associated with the Participation of CYP3A Enzymes in Arachidonic Acid Metabolism

Arachidornic acid mal and tetabolites known as eicosanoids (EETs), a sumbclass of orous tissues of the brexylipins, have a wide range of physiological effects in cardiovascular homeostasis and regulation of cell growth, inflammation, and immune responses. EETs function as regulators [38][39][40] of cardiac, vascular [84-87], and renal physiof the prostatelogy [88-90]. In the cardiovascular system, EETs serve as [41][42],vascular relaxatin cells of the endometrium on factors independent of nitric oxide and prostacyclin I2 [91].

Eicosanoid s (EETs), whose emergence dervixpends on CYP3A-mediated [43][44]metabolism, anre implicated in ovaria the pathophysiology of various diseases.

4.3. Roles of CYP3A Enzymes in Diseases Associated with the CYP3A Involvement in the Metabolism of Sex Steroids

The role of CYP3A enzymes tumorin the metabolism of sex steroid hormones [45]implies an association with the development of hormone-dependent diseases.

4.4. Diseases Related to the Participation of CYP3A Enzymes in Vitamin D Metabolism

Vitamin D has multiple effects on the biological processes that regulate the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus and also affects proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis of cells as well as immune regulation [46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53].

CYP3A4, by taking part in the inactivation of an active vitamin D metabolite [1.25(ОН)2D3], may have a significant impact on circulating vitamin D levels [54][55]and hence calcium homeostasis, which in turn may influence bone and immune-system health [92,93] by downregulating the overexpression of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1α, IL-1β, and TNF [94,95].

It is possible that the progression of cardiovascular diseases may be due to the inactivating effect of CYP3A4 on the active form of vitamin D because a low concentration of 1,25(OH)2D3 in blood serum is strongly associated with the initiation of cardiovascular diseases [96] and with the incidence of arterial hypertension [97].

4.5. Changes in the Expression and Activity of CYP3A Enzymes in Various Pathological Conditions

It is now clear that the expression and activity of CYP enzymes are affected by such pathological conditions as infection, inflammation, and cancer [10,98,99].

4.5.1. Inflammation-Dependent Changes in the Expression and Activity of CYP3A Enzymes

The influence of inflammation on the expression of CYP3A enzymes is are affected by such pathological conditions as in important topic because an alteration of these enzymatic activities leads to a change in pharmacokinetics of prescription drugs. Inflammation is a common sign of many diseases and is implicated in the pathogenesis of such illnesses as infectious diseases, cancer, diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease as well as age-related processes such as normal aging and metabolic aberrations [100]. Sources of inflammation are infections, e.g., hepatitis, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, and COVID-19 [101]. Aside from infections, other possible sources of inflammation in the human body are diseases of organs (the kidneys, liver, lungs, and heart), diabetes mellitus, autoimmune diseases (ankylosing spondylitis, psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus, Crohn’s disease, and celiac disease), and cancer. Additionally, possible sources of inflammation are vaccination, a surgical procedure, a critical condition of a patient, and treatment with immunomodulatory agents, anti-TNF antibodies, or monoclonal antibodies [101].

In such disease states, the regulation ofection, inf CYP enzymes is connected with inflammation status [100]. It is recognized that changes related to CYP enzymes are a common consequence of the immunostimulation following infection and inflammation [102,103]. The source of modulation of CYP enzymes’ activities is endogenous inflammation, and cancer markers: cytokines, adipokines, lipid metabolites of nitric oxide, proteases, and reactive oxygen species [104]. Inflammation is accompanied by suppression of the CYP enzymes that metabolize xenobiotics, including medical drugs [105]. The most studied CYP subfamily [10][56][57]in inflammation is CYP3A [101].

4.5.2. Aberrant Intratumoral Expression of CYP3A Enzymes

The main clinical consequences of aberrant intratumoral expression of CYP3A4 may be mediated by administration of anticancer drugs that are CYP3A substrates during the treatment of Ewing’s sarcoma. Local expression of CYP3A enzymes in malignant tissue may contribute to the development of multidrug resistance or toxicity observed in this type of tumor.

Recent investigation into the aberrant expression of CYP3A5 in cancer, depending on the malignancy and ability to metastasize, uncovered a role of CYP3A5 in cancer progression, metastasis, and invasion.

5. Concluding Remarks

This resviearchw is aimed at highlighting the main roles of CYP3A enzymes along with their unique characteristics in the metabolism of biologically active endogenous compounds and numerous xenobiotics that are important in clinical pharmacology as well as the involvement of these enzymes in a wide range of physiological and pathological phenomena. The scientific literature cited in this researchview attests to remarkable efforts and advances in the understanding how the CYP3A family of phase I biotransformation enzymes is integrated into the vast and complex network of physiological processes detoxifying endo- and xenobiotics. The function of CYP3A enzymes is complex because the effects of activation their genes are determined by a wide range of endogenous and exogenous ligands and by a unique regulatory system that involves CYP3A enzymes in many physiological and pathological processes in cells and tissues of the body (Figure 25).

Figure 25. Effects of CYP3A enzymes on the metabolism of endo- and xenobiotics have an influence on a wide range of physiological and pathophysiological processes in the body.

The totality of evidence indicates that the activation of CYP3A genes can be either beneficial or detrimental during diseases of various organs and tissues. The ultimate effects depend both on the context of a disease and on the nature of ligands of the nuclear receptors that control CYP3A genes’ transcription.

Currently, the molecular mechanisms by which CYP3A enzymes take part in pathogenesis are well understood only for a few diseases; in particular, a role of CYP3A5 in carcinogenesis has been demonstrated. There are more reports of (i) diseases associated with the participation of CYP3A enzymes in the metabolism of endogenous compounds and (ii) pathological conditions affecting the expression and activity of CYP3A enzymes. The consequence of an alteration of these enzymes’ activities is a change in the pharmacokinetics of the drugs used for treatment. Much basic research has been conducted on the role of CYP3A enzymes in pathological processes, but clinical studies that are aimed at influencing the mechanisms of signaling pathways regulating CYP3A genes in various diseases are still insufficient, and further investigation is needed.
