한국산 꽃뱀(Natrix tigrina Lateralis)의 간 마이크로좀에 존재하는 mixed function oxidase system 구성 성분들의 함량과 P45O 의존성 monooxygenase의 활성도를 조사하고 이들을 흰쥐(Sp. D)의 것과 상호 비교하였다. 꽃뱀에서의 P45O, b5 함량 및 NADPH-cytochrome c reductase 활성도는 흰쥐에서 보다 낮았으며, 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase와 benzphetamine N-demethylase 활성도 역시 흰쥐에서 보다 상당히 낮았다. 그러나 aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase와 testosterone hydroxylase 활성도는 흰쥐와 비교할 때 거의 비슷하거나 오히려 높았다. Testosterone의 수산화 반응에 대한 선택특이성을 조사한 결과, 꽃 뱀은 7$\alpha$ 위치에서, 흰쥐는 6$\beta$ 위치에서 가장 높은 수산화 반응물을 생성했다. 그러나 testosterone의 C2와 C3 위치에서의 수산화 반응에 대한 선택특이성은 꽃뱀과 흰쥐에서 비슷하였다. Radioimmunoassay (RlA)를 실시하여 5종 (CYP2B, CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP3A 및 CYP2El)의 P45O 동위효소의 구성비를 비교한 결과, 꽃뱀에서는 CYP1A1/1A2가, 흰쥐에서는 CYP2El이 각각 비교적 많이 존재하였다. 부분정제한 P45O을 SDS-PAGE와 RIA로 분석한 결과, 꽃뱀의 간 마이크로좀에 존재하는 P45O중에는 흰쥐와는 다른 종류의 P45O 동위효소가 존재함을 시사하였다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of trauma on cytochrome P450 (CYP) gene expression and to determine the role of Kupffer cells in trauma-induced alteration of CYP isozymes. Rats underwent closed femur fracture (FFx) with associated soft-tissue injury under anesthesia. To deplete Kupffer cells in vivo, gadolinium chloride ($GdCl_3$) was intravenously injected at 7.5 mg/kg body wt., 1 and 2 days prior to FFx surgery. At 72 h of FFx, liver tissues were isolated to determine the mRNA and protein expression of CYP isozymes and NADPH-P450 reductase by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Western immunoblotting, respectively. In addition, the mRNA levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-$\alpha$), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were evaluated. FFx increased the mRNA level of CYP1A1; an increase that was not prevented by $GdCl_3$. There were no significant differences in the mRNA expression of CYP1A2, 2B1 and 2E1 among any of the experimental groups. The protein levels of CYP2B1 and 2E1 were significantly decreased by FFx; a decrease that was not prevented by $GdCl_3$ treatment. The gene expression of NADPH-P450 reductase was unchanged by FFx. FFx significantly increased the expression of TNF-$\alpha$ mRNA; an increase that was attenuated by $GdCl_3$. The mRNA expression of HO-1 was increased by FFx, but not by $GdCl_3$ . Our findings suggest that FFx differentially regulates the expression of CYP isozyme through Kupffer cell-independent mechanisms.

유기주석화합물인 tributyltin chloride (TBTC), tributyltin oxide (TBTO)와 triphenyltin chloride (TPTC)를 넙치 간장으로 만든 미크로좀에 in vitro적으로 노출시켜서 이들 화합물의 대사에 관여하는 mixed function oxidase (MFO) 중 cytochrome P450 (CYP) 농도와 7-ethoxyresorufin deethylase (EROD) 활성의 변화를 조사하였으며, 또한 in vivo 실험에서는 TPTC를 넙치에게 복강주사(7.5 mg $kg^{-1}$ BW)하여 간장의 MFO (CYP농도, NADPH cytochrome c 환원효소 활성, NADH chtochrome b5 환원 효소 활성, EROD 활성) 반응을 경시적으로 조사하였다. 그 결과, in vitro에서는 TBTC, TBTO 및 TPTC가 모두 CYP 농도와 EROD 활성을 저해하였으며, 저해력은 TPTC가 가장 컸고 이어서 TBTO, TBTC의 순이었다. 유기주석화합물의 노출농도와 노출시간과 비례하면서 저해정도가 커졌으며, 특히 EROD활성의 저해는 노출농도에 크게 의존적이었다. 그리고 in vivo실험에서도 유기주석 화합물은 CYP농도, NADPH cytochrome c 환원효소 활성, NADH cytochrome b5 환원효소 활성, EROD 활성을 억제하였다. EROD 활성은 오염물질에 의한 반응이 민감하고 재현성도 있어 바람직한 측정지표로 이용될 수가 있을 것이다.

The syntheses of different types of stilbenoid libraries have been studied recently. In these courses, the screening of the generated natural product-mimic focused libraries led to the identification of the novel lead compounds for human cytochrome P450 (CYP) lAs, melanin production, and sortase A. A library of trans-stilbene derivatives was prepared through a new efficient solution pahse synthetic pathway and their inhibitory activities were evaluated on human cytochrome P450s(CYP) 1A1, 1A2, and 1B1 to find a potent and selective CYP1 inhibitor.

Recent industrial society has human widely exposed to PAHs (polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons) that are comming from the incomplete combustion of organic material as wider spread environmental contaminants. Biological activities of PAHs are not known although PAHs are considered as carcinogens. Our laboratory have been studied the effect of PAHs in the mouse liver hepa 1 cells. In this study, we examined the mouse liver hepa-l cells as a new bioassay system to evaluate bioactivity of PAHs. We have selected 13 PAHs to examine bioassay using cyp1a1-luciferase reporter gene expression system where cyp1a1 1.6 Kb 5flanking region DNA was cloned in front of luciferase reporter gene and this plasmid was transfected into hepa 1 cells transiently. This cells then used for the study to observe the effect of PAHs. We demonstrated that PAHs induced the CYP1A1 promoter and 7-ethoxyresolufin O-deethylase (EROD) activities in a concentration-dependant manner. Some of PAHs showed stronger stimulatory effect on CYP1 gene expression than TCDD. Acenaphthene, anthracene, fluorine, naphthalene, pyrene, phenanthrene, carbazole were weak responders to cyp1a1 promoter activity stimulation and EROD induction in hepa 1 cells and these chemicals seemed to respond less to EROD than cyp1a1 promoter activity. Benz(a)anthracene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, chrysene, and dibenzo(a,h)anthracene showed strong response to cyp1a1 promoter activity stimulation and also EROD induction in hepa 1cells. Results of dose response study suggested that four strong responding PAHs, such as benzo(a)anthracene benzo(k)fluoranthene, chrysene, and dibenzo(a, h)anthracene might be mediated through arylhydrocarbon receptor system in hepa1 cells.

Purpose: With regard to the protective effect of vitamin D against colorectal cancer (CRC), we evaluated genetic variants that might influence vitamin D metabolism: vitamin D receptor (VDR), vitamin D binding protein (GC), vitamin D 25-hydroxylase (CYP2R1), and vitamin D 25-hydroxy 1-alpha hydroxylase (CYP27B1). Materials and Methods: A total of 657 subjects, including 303 cases with CRC and 354 controls were enrolled in this case-control study. All 657 were genotyped for the four gene variants using PCR-RFLP methods. Results: In this study, no significant difference was observed for VDR (rs2238136), GC (rs4588), CYP2R1 (rs12794714), and CYP27B1 (rs3782130) gene variants in either genotype or allele frequencies between the cases with CRC and the controls and this lack of difference remained even after adjustment for age, BMI, sex, smoking status, NSAID use, and family history of CRC. Furthermore, no evidence for effect modification of the variants and CRC by BMI, sex, or tumor site was observed. Conclusions: Our findings do not support a role for VDR, GC, and CYP27B1 genes in CRC risk in our Iranian population. Another interesting finding, which to our knowledge has not been reported previously, was the lack of association with the CYP2R1 gene polymorphism. Nonetheless, our findings require confirmation and possible roles of vitamin D metabolism-related genes in carcinogenesis need to be further investigated.

The effect of 1,8-cineole on cytochrome P450 (CYP) expression was investigated in male Sprague Dawley rats and female BALB/c mice. When rats were treated orally with 200, 400 and 800 mg/kg of 1,8-cineole for 3 consecutive days, the liver microsomal activities of benzy-loxyresorufin- and pentoxyresorufin-D-dealkylases and erythromycin N-demethylase were dose-dependently induced. The Western immunoblotting analyses clearly indicated the induction of CYP 2B1/2 and CYP 3A1/2 proteins by 1,8-cineole. At the doses employed, 1,8-cineole did not cause toxicity, including hepatotoxicity. Subsequently, 1,8-cineole was applied to study the role of metabolic activation in thioacetamide-induced hepatotoxicity and/or immunotoxicity in animal models. To investigate a possible role of metabolic activation by CYP enzymes in thioacetamide-induced hepatotoxicity, rats were pre-treated with 800 mg/kg of 1,8-cineole for 3 days, followed by a single intraperitoneal treatment with 50 and 100 mg/kg of thioacetamide in saline. 24 h later, thioacetamide-induced hepatotoxicity was significantly potentiated by the pretreatment with 1,8-cineole. When female BALB/c mice were pretreated with 800 mg/kg of 1,8-cineole for 3 days, followed by a single intraperitoneal treatment with 100 mg/kg of thioace-tamide, the antibody response to sheep red blood cells was significantly potentiated. In addition, the liver microsomal activities of CYP 2B enzymes were significantly induced by 1,8-cineole as in rats. Taken together, our results indicated that 1,8-cineole might be a useful CYP modulator in investigating the possible role of metabolic activation in chemical-induced hepato-toxicity and immunotoxicity.

Human cytochrome B5 (CYB5) was coexpressed with cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2), NADPH-CYP450 reductase (CYPR) and Ν-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The expression of four proteins was determined by Western blot analyses. The introduction of cDNAs to CHO cells were transduced via retroviral vectors. The cytotoxicity assay of 2-aminoanthracene (2-AA) and aflatoxin B$_1$were approximately 4-fold more sensitive than CYB5 free cells.(omitted)

Thelephoric acid is an antioxidant produced by the hydrolysis of polyozellin, which is isolated from Polyozellus multiplex. In the present study, the inhibitory effects of polyozellin and thelephoric acid on 9 cytochrome P450 (CYP) family members (CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4) were examined in pooled human liver microsomes (HLMs) using a cocktail probe assay. Polyozellin exhibited weak inhibitory effects on the activities of all 9 CYPs examined, whereas thelephoric acid exhibited dose- and time-dependent inhibition of all 9 CYP isoforms ($IC_{50}$ values, $3.2-33.7{\mu}M$). Dixon plots of CYP inhibition indicated that thelephoric acid was a competitive inhibitor of CYP1A2 and CYP3A4. In contrast, thelephoric acid was a noncompetitive inhibitor of CYP2D6. Our findings indicate that thelephoric acid may be a novel, non-specific CYP inhibitor, suggesting that it could replace SKF-525A in inhibitory studies designed to investigate the effects of CYP enzymes on the metabolism of given compounds.
