Inhibition difference (percentage of control)
Phenacetin O-deethylation (CYP1A2) Torsemide tolyl methylhydroxylation (CYP2C9) (S)-Mephenytoin 4′-hydroxylation (CYP2C19) Dextromethorphan O-demethylation (CYP2D6) Testosterone 6β-hydroxylation (CYP3A)
Selegiline 0.5 N.O. −10.7 6.0 0.5*
Clorgyline 21.6 −14.3 −16.6 −4.8 0.8
Pargyline −1.9 N.O. N.O. −8.8 1.3
Tranylcypromine −7.4 −0.9 −12.1 −1.3 −6.7*
Phenelzine 25.4 46.8 24.2 11.9 12.5*
Isoniazid 11.4 14.8 18.0 4.0 15.9*
Iproniazid −4.0 15.7 −0.7 4.0 −1.6

Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (20 µm) were co- and preincubated as described under Methods and the inhibition difference between co- and preincubation conditions determined. Data represent the mean of at least duplicate determinations.
