     Abstract Purpose: To investigate the effects of the herbal medicine Anethum graveolens L. (AG) on the expressions of phase I and II metabolizing genes in HepG2 cells in order to gain insight into the metabolism of AG. Methods: HepG2 cells (5 x 105 cells/well) were treated with either 10 µM ketoconazole, 20 µM rifampicin, or AG extract (60 - 480 µg/mL) for 72 h. Cell viability and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production were assessed using resazurin and 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescein diacetate assays, respectively. The mRNA expression of phase I (CYP1A2, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4) and phase II metabolizing enzymes (UGT1A6 and NAT1) were determined using reverse transcription-real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Results: ROS production was not affected by the various treatments. The highest concentration of AG (480 µg/mL) reduced cell viability to 63.33 %. The expressions of CYP1A2, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and NAT1 mRNA were significantly elevated after 72-h AG treatment. Conclusion: The use of AG as an alternative medicine, particularly at high concentrations and/or after prolonged use, poses a risk for herb-drug interactions due to the up-regulation of CYP1A2, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and NAT1 expression by AG in HepG2 cells.
