Difference between CYP3A4 and Ramelteon

CYP3A4 vs. Ramelteon

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (abbreviated CYP3A4) is an important enzyme in the body, mainly found in the liver and in the intestine. Ramelteon, marketed as Rozerem among others, is a sleep agent that selectively binds to the MT1 and MT2 receptors in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), instead of binding to GABAA receptors, such as with drugs like zolpidem.

Similarities between CYP3A4 and Ramelteon

CYP3A4 and Ramelteon have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): Agonist, Anxiolytic, Area under the curve (pharmacokinetics), Cytochrome P450, Dextromethorphan, Fluconazole, Fluvoxamine, Ketoconazole, Midazolam, Omeprazole, Opioid, Rifampicin, Warfarin, Zolpidem.

Agonist

An agonist is a chemical that binds to a receptor and activates the receptor to produce a biological response.

Cytochrome P450

Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are proteins of the superfamily containing heme as a cofactor and, therefore, are hemoproteins.
