concentration. The reaction mixtures contained a final concentration <strong>of</strong> 0.05 M sodium<br />

potassium phosphate buffer (pH=7.4), 5 pmol/mL CYP2J2, 1 mM NADPH, <strong>and</strong> substrate<br />

concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 20 μM, in a total volume <strong>of</strong> 200 μL. The DMSO<br />

concentration was 0.25% v/v. The reaction was initiated by the addition <strong>of</strong> NADPH after<br />

5 minutes <strong>of</strong> pre-incubation at 37°C <strong>and</strong> was terminated 10 minutes after incubation by<br />

adding 150 μL <strong>of</strong> ice cold methanol containing 100 ng/mL <strong>of</strong> tolbutamide (internal<br />

st<strong>and</strong>ard) into 50 μL <strong>of</strong> the reaction mixtures. The st<strong>and</strong>ard solution <strong>of</strong> DES-AST was<br />

prepared <strong>and</strong> treated in the exact same way as the parent compound except without<br />

having the NADPH to yield final concentrations from 0.2 to 10 nM. After being<br />

vortexed for 1 minute <strong>and</strong> centrifuged at 4000 RPM under 4°C for 10 minutes, the clear<br />

supernatant was then used directly for LC-MS/MS analysis.<br />

CYP2J2 Inhibition Study. Compounds used in the CYP2J2 inhibition study<br />

were dissolved <strong>and</strong> diluted sequentially in DMSO to ensure that the final DMSO<br />

concentration was 0.1% v/v in each sample. All samples were incubated in duplicate.<br />

The incubation mixture consisted <strong>of</strong> 0.1 M sodium potassium phosphate buffer (pH=7.4),<br />

1 pmol/mL recombinant CYP, 0.15 μM AST, <strong>and</strong> 0.5 mM NADPH in a final volume <strong>of</strong><br />

200 μL, with various inhibitor concentration <strong>of</strong> 0.023 to 50 μM. The reaction was<br />

initiated by addition <strong>of</strong> NADPH after 10 minutes <strong>of</strong> pre-warming at 37°C <strong>and</strong> was<br />

terminated 10 minutes after incubation by adding 100 μL <strong>of</strong> ice cold methanol containing<br />

100 ng/mL <strong>of</strong> tolbutamide (internal st<strong>and</strong>ard) into the mixtures. After being vortexed for<br />

1 minute <strong>and</strong> centrifuged at 4000 RPM under 4°C for 10 minutes, the clear supernatant<br />

was used directly for LC-MS/MS analysis.<br />

Human Liver Microsome Inhibition Study. Compound selectivity was<br />

assessed by its inhibitory potential against five major CYPs, namely CYP3A4, CYP2D6,<br />
