Despite the availability of liquid chromatography (LC)-mass spectrometry (MS) methods for quantifying cytochrome P450 (P450) proteins, incorporation of P450 protein quantification into induction study workflows has not been widely adopted. To more readily enable P450 protein quantification in induction study workflows, DMPK research groups need a simple, robust, cost-effective, high-throughput method compatible with 96-well-plated human hepatocyte formats. Here, we provide such a methodology. Our method bypasses both microsomal enrichment and antibody-based enrichment to go directly from the plate to LC-MS/MS analysis. We use this "plate-to-peaks" approach for quantifying CYP3A4, CYP2B6, and CYP1A2, the major inducible hepatic P450s representative of pregnane X receptor-, constitutive androstane receptor-, and aryl hydrocarbon receptor-mediated induction, respectively. We leveraged our induction study-aligned assay format to assess induction across mRNA, protein, and enzyme activity using known induction control compounds. As expected, results from the three methods using model inducers were broadly concordant, but the magnitude of the induction response differed. Induction of CYP3A4 using 10 µM rifampicin was 12-fold for RNA, eightfold for protein, and threefold for activity; for CYP1A2 with 50 µM omeprazole, induction was 30-fold for RNA, 13-fold for protein, and 17-fold for activity; for CYP2B6 with 50 µM phenytoin, induction was 23-fold for RNA, twofold for protein, and fivefold for activity. Most importantly, we anticipate the relative ease of this method will enable researchers to routinely adopt P450 protein quantification as part of nonclinical evaluation of P450 induction. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Current methodologies for quantifying P450 proteins by liquid chromatography (LC)-tandem mass spectrometry are either cumbersome, too costly, or both to be widely adopted into induction study workflows by the ADME research community. We present a simplified LC-MS/MS methodology for quantifying P450 proteins directly from human hepatocytes, without any form of enrichment, in 96-well induction assay plate format that should be readily adoptable by any ADME laboratory with LC-multiple-reaction monitoring capabilities.
