Tofacitinib can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. In this current study, a recombinant human CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 system was operated to study the effects of recombinant variants on tofacitinib metabolism. Moreover, the interaction between tofacitinib and myricetin was analyzed in vitro. The levels of M9 (the main metabolite of tofacitinib) was detected by ultra performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). The findings revealed that 11 variants showed significant changes in the levels of M9 compared to CYP3A4.1, while the other variants didn’t reveal any remarkable significances. Compared with CYP2C19.1, 11 variants showed increases in the levels of M9, and 10 variants showed decreases. Additionally, it was demonstrated in vitro that the inhibition of tofacitinib by myricetin was a non-competitive type in rat liver microsomes (RLM) and human liver microsomes (HLM). However, the inhibitory mechanism was a competitive type in CYP3A4.18, and mixed type in CYP3A4.1 and .28, respectively. The data demonstrated that gene polymorphisms and myricetin had significant effects on the metabolism of tofacitinib, contributing to important clinical data for the precise use.
