Voriconazole N-oxide
Voriconazole N-oxide (Voriconazole oxynitride) is a metabolite of Voriconazole (HY-76200) and lacks antifungal activity. Voriconazole N-oxide inhibits human CYP2C9- and CYP3A4-mediated metabolism (IC50 = 11.2 μM and 8.7 μM, respectively). Voriconazole N-oxide shows no significant inhibition of CYP1A2/2B6/2C8/2C19/2D6. Voriconazole N-oxide decreases SOD1 and induces oxidative stress, ROS generation, oxidative DNA damage, and UVA photosensitization. Voriconazole N-oxide can be used in research on skin cancer, Voriconazole-induced liver injury, and squamous cell carcinoma.

In Vitro
Voriconazole N-oxide (400 μg/mL; 6 h) induces ROS accumulation and increases superoxide and H2O2 while decreasing CAT activity in HepG2 cells[5].
Voriconazole N-oxide (200-800 μg/mL; 6 h) inhibits SOD1 protein levels in HepG2 cells[5].
Voriconazole N-oxide (30 min; UVA 5 J cm−2) induces 8-oxoguanine oxidative DNA damage in normal human epidermal keratinocytes[7].
Voriconazole N-oxide (UVB 0-300 mJ/cm2) is converted to photo-modified Voriconazole N-oxide in a UVB dose-dependent manner[2].
Voriconazole N-oxide (0.015-0.15 mM) is not glucuronidated by recombinant UGT2B10 or UGT1A6[3].
Voriconazole N-oxide (0-100 μM; 5-40 min) inhibits CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 (probe substrate) in human liver microsomes with IC50 values of 11.2 μM and 8.7 μM, respectively, while showing minimal inhibition of the other tested CYP isoforms[4].
Voriconazole N-oxide (1 μM; 0-60 min) is metabolically stable in recombinant human CYP1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4, with ≥95.8% remaining after 60 min[4].
Voriconazole N-oxide inhibits BSEP-mediated taurocholic acid transport with an IC50 of 237.65 μg/mL in the BSEP transport assay[5].
Voriconazole N-oxide (30 μM; 24 h before irradiation; 5-7 days post-irradiation) sensitizes normal human epidermal keratinocytes to UVA, with a greater than three-fold reduction in survival at 10 J cm−2, but does not sensitize them to UVB[7].
Voriconazole N-oxide h(2 µM; 0-60 min) is formed from Voriconazole with CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 as major contributors in liver microsomes from healthy and CIA DBA/1J mice, while Voriconazole remained stable over 60 min[8].
