leva [86]4 years ago

Mutations are changes that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke.

They increase the genetic variation within a species because they can create entirely new alleles in a population, random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring.

cytochrome p450 enzymes contribute to the metabolism of lsd to nor-lsd and 2-oxo-3-hydroxy-lsd: implications for clinical lsd us
MrRissso [65]

Implications for clinical LSD use: Cytochrome P450 enzymes participate in the metabolism of LSD to nor-LSD and 2-oxo-3-hydroxy-LSD. This cell-based (in vitro) study examined the possibility for clinical LSD usage and the role of the cytochrome P450 (CYPs) enzymes in the metabolism of LSD to nor-LSD and 2-oxo-3-hydroxy-LSD.

This cell-based (in vitro) study examined the possibility for clinical LSD usage and the role of the cytochrome P450 (CYPs) enzymes in the metabolism of LSD to nor-LSD and 2-oxo-3-hydroxy-LSD. The study discovered that multiple CYPs significantly contributed to the process even though the human liver only converted a little amount of LSD to nor-LSD and O-H-LSD. According to the review, there is a connection between genetic polymorphisms and pharmacological interactions, which may have an impact on the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of LSD. Additionally, it was discovered that O-H-LSD is inactive whereas nor-LSD may have inactive hallucinogenic effects similar to that of LSD.
