Component
Cyclosporine metabolite AM9
Primary cyclosporine metabolite formed by both CYP3A4 and CYP3A5, and the only one human kidney microsomes produced.
2 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.
How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
What acts on it
CYP3A5 formed only AM9 from cyclosporine, not AM1 or AM4N, with substrate inhibition and an apparent Km of 11.3 micromolar.
Experimental context and source evidence

- Not stated here
- evidence_access
- Primary PubMed abstract and indexed metadata reviewed. Full-text method details not stated here remain unresolved.
- experimental_model
- Heterologously expressed human CYP3A5
- exposure
- Cyclosporin A
- limitations
- A narrower product range than CYP3A4 in the same comparison. Recorded as the enzyme raising one named metabolite, with the two metabolites it did not form recorded as a null in the companion claim.

No reference carries a recorded retraction, erratum or expression of concern. Each of the seven is a separate laboratory and each carries its own lineage key, so none of them can be counted twice as independent support.

CYP3A5 formed only AM9 from cyclosporine, not AM1 or AM4N, with substrate inhibition and an apparent Km of 11.3 micromolar.
Complete structured claim and evidenceMicrosomes from human kidney produced only AM9, and the rate of formation at 2 and 20 micromolar cyclosporine was positively associated with detectable CYP3A5 protein and with the CYP3A5*1 allele in 4 of the 20 kidneys tested.

- experimental_model
- Human kidney microsomes from twenty donors
- exposure
- Cyclosporin A at 2 and 20 micromolar
- limitations
- Four of twenty kidneys carried the allele, so the genotype comparison rests on a small group. Ketoconazole at 200 nanomolar inhibited renal AM9 formation by 22 to 55 per cent across 2 to 45 micromolar cyclosporine, which supports a CYP3A route without isolating CYP3A5 from CYP3A4 pharmacologically.
