Abstract
Myristicin, 1-allyl-3, 4-methylenedioxy-5-methoxybenzene, is a naturally occurring alkenylbenzene compound. It is found in nutmag, mace, parsley, carrot, black pepper, many natural oils and flavoring agents. The aim of this work was to identify the form(s) of human liver cytochrome P450 (P450) involved in the hepatic transformation of myristicin to its major metabolite, 5-allyl-1-methoxy-2, 3-dihydroxybenzene (M1).
