Recently we have reported that various hydroxystilbenes show strong inhibition of human cytochrome P450 1 enzyme activities. A series of syntheic trans-stilbene derivatives were prepared and their inhibitory potentials were evaluated with the bacterial membrane of recombinant human cytochrome P450 1A1, 1A2 and 1B1 coexpressed with hyman NADPH-P450 reductase to find a new inhibitor of cytochrome P450 enzymes. Of the compounds tested, SY-081 exhibited a potent inhibition of human cytochrome P450 1B1 with an $IC_50$ value of 2.6 nM. (omitted)

미산소성 세균으로 알려진 질소고정균 Arcobacter nitrofigilis는 brucella 액체배지에서 호기적 생장의 특성을 나타내었다. 일반대기의 산소조건(21% $O_2$)하에서 최대생장의 특성을 보여주었다. 2% 이하의 산소조건하에서 산소 이외의 다른 최종산소수용체를 첨가하지 않은 액체배지에서 이 세균은 적은 정도의 생장을 나타내었다. 이 세균은 전자전달계 구성성분인 세포막에 함유되어 있는 cytochrome b 및 c, 그리고 용해성 cytochrome c를 가지고 있었다. 일반대기의 산소조건에서의 최대생장, 낮은 산소 농도하에서의 적은 정도의 생장 및 cytochrome c의 존재로 볼 때 이 세균은 미산소성 세균이나 통성혐기성 세균이 아니고, 호기성 세균임을 나타내주며, 또한 이 세균은 산소를 이용한 호픕에 의해 에너지를 얻음을 나타내준다.

홍삼의 물추출물을 장기간 흰쥐에 급여했을 때 흰쥐 간의 이물질대사효소 활성도 유도에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 홍삼 물추출물의 급여농도는 25 mg/kg body weight이었으며, 간의 이물질대사효소 유도제는 항경련제 PB (80 mg/kg)와 발암제 3-MC (20 mg/kg)을 사용하였다. 간에서 이물질대사에 관여하는 cytochrome P-450의 함량, cytochrome P-450 dependent monooxygenase인 ECOD와 BPDM, cytochrome P-450 reductase와 GST의 활성도는 PB와 3-MC 투여에 의해서 대조군과 홍삼투여군 모두 크게 증가되었다. 흰쥐의 나이가 3개월에서는 두 유도제를 투여했을 때 이물질대사효소의 활성은 대조군이 인삼투여군에 비해 상대적으로 더 많이 유도되었다. 그러나 12개월에서는 두 시험군 모두 유도정도가 감소하였으나 홍삼투여군은 그 활성도 감소정도가 대조군에 비해 상대적으로 크지 않았다. 한편 두 그룹 모두 이물질대사 효소 중 cytochrome $B_5$ 함량과 cytochrome $b_5$ reductase의 활성도는 PB와 3-MC 투여에 의해서 뚜렷한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 따라서 이러한 결과는 흰쥐에 홍삼의 장기간 급여는 간에서 효소유도제의 이물질대사효소유도 정도를 조절하여 무독화에 기여할 수 있다는 것을 의미한다.

싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물이 간독성 물질인 B$({\alpha})$P을 투여한 마우스에서 간 손상 억제 효과 및 cytochrome P-450 1A1 발현에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. B$({\alpha})$P 투여로 인한 혈청 ALT와 AST의 활성, 간 조직증의 lipid peroxide 함량, cytochrome P-450 함량, AD 및 AH 활성이 유의적으로 증가하였으며 싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물의 투여시 이들 활성 및 함량이 유의적으로 감소하였다. 반면, 간 조직중의 GSH 함량, GST, r-glutamylcysteine synthetase의 활성은 B$({\alpha})$P만 투여한 군에 비해 싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물을 투여시 증가하였다. 또한 immuno blotting 결과로부터 B$({\alpha})$P 투여에 의해 현저히 증가되었던 cytochrome P-450 1A1 isozyme 단백질 함량이 싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물의 투여로 감소됨을 확인하였다. 이와 같은 결과로부터 싸리버섯 메탄올 추출물은 B$({\alpha})$P에 의한 간 손상에 대한 보호 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다.

The chromatophore from the chemotrophically grown facultative anaerobic photosynthetic bacterium, Rhodopseudomonas gelatinosa ATCC 17013 was isolated through stepwise sucrose gradient centrifugation. The isolated chromatophore showed high activities of the cytochrome $bc_{1}$ complex and cytochrome c oxidase. The activity of cytochrome $bc_{1}$ complex was completely inhibited by .5$\mu$M antimycin A,10$\mu$M myxothiazol, and that of cytochrome c oxidase was completely inhibited by .$50\mu$M KCM and $100\mu$M $NaN_{3}$but not inhibited by carbon monoxie. The activity of cytochrome c oxidase of th chromatophore was increased by addition of ionophores or protonophores. The reduced-oxidised difference sspectrum of cytochrome $bc_{1}$ complex isolated by affivity chromatography showed the absorption maxima at 553 nm(shoulder at 547 nm), 520 nm, and 418.5 nm, on the other hand, that of cytochrome c oxidase showed .alpha., .betha. and soret peaks at 554 nm, 523 nm, and 421 nm, respectively. The cytochrome c oxidase from chemotrophically grown Rhodopseudomonas gelatinosa seems to be a b-type cytochrome c oxidase.

Genetic relationships among six species of the genus Rana from Korea were investigated by complete nucleotide sequence analyses of mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (1143 bp). Based on Kimura-2-parameter distance, the interspecific sequence differences of cytochrome b gene within the genus Rana were ranged from 7.83% to 25.00%. The genetic distances were 7.83% between R. nigromaculata and R. plancyi, 8.47% between two types of R. rugosa (type A and B), 10.42% between the brown frogs (R. amurensis and R. dybowskii), 16.11% between R. dybowskii types 1 and 2 and 12.36% between pond frogs (R. nigromaculata and R. plancyi) and R. catesbeiana. In the neighbor-joining and parsimony trees, R. catesbeiana was more closely related to pond frogs than brown frogs. R. dybowskii types 1 and 2 were considered to be at a distinct and specific level of differentiation (16.11%), while two types of R. rugosa were suspected to be at a subspecific level (8.47%).

The response of hepatic mixed function oxygenase (MFO) system was investigated in olive flounder exposed to formalin. Hepatic microsome of olive flounder incubated in vitro with formalin demonstrated the induction of cytochrome P450 (CYP), ethoxyresorufin deethylase (EROD), cytochrome P450 reductase (P450R) and cytochrome b5 reductase (b5R) activity. In addition, olive flounder was exposed to 100, 300 and 500 ppm of formalin for 1 h and then transferred to a flow-through type of 1000 L aquarium. Hepatic MFO enzyme activity was determined for 72 h. As the result, hepatic CYP, P450R and EROD activities increased following exposure of formalin, but b5R and GST showed no significant change. These results imply that CYP and P450R can be considered as main hepatic enzymes involving in detoxification of formalin.

The effects of trichloroethylene (TRI) on the induction of cytochrome P-450 (CYP) and several other related enzymes in Sprague Dawley rats were investigated Rats were treated with TRI 150. 300. 600 mg/kg body weight in corn oil intra peritoneally once a day for 2 days. The total contents of microsomal CYP and cytochrome $b_5\;(b_5)$ decreased with the increase of TRI concentration. but the activity of p-nitrophenol hydroxylase increased with the increase of TRI dosage (p<0.05). Western blot analysis which utilized monoclonal antibodies against CYP2E1 also showed a significant increase in the CYP2E band density. The increase of the activity of pentoxyresolufin-O-deethylase also was observed with the TRI treatment (p<0.05) although there was no significant increase in the cytochrome CYP2B1/2 in Western blotting The TRI did not affect the induction of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase. These findings suggest that the CYP2E1 is the primary enzyme which could be induced by TRI treatment in rats.

Abstract The cancer chemopreventive potential of chitosanoligosaccharides was investigated by measuring the induction of quinone reductase and glutathione S-transferase activities and inhibition of cytochrome P450 1A1, 2B1, and 2E1 activities. Chitosanoligosaccharide I (1-${\kappa}$Da${\kappa}$Da) significantly induced glutathione S-transferase activity with a maximal 1.5-fold increase at 500 ${\mu}$g/ml, while chitosanoligosaccharide II (3-${\kappa}$Da${\kappa}$Da) (500 ${\mu}$g/ml) strongly induced quinone reductase (p<0.01) and glutathione S-transferase (p<0.005) activities. The in vitro incubation of rat liver microsomes with chitosanoligosaccharides I and II (2.5, 5, 50, and 500 ${\mu}$g/ml) showed a dose-dependent inhibiton of cytochrome P450 1A1, 2B1, and 2E1 activities. Chitosanoligosaccharide II was a more potent inhibitor of cytochrome P450 2B1 activity than chitosanoligosaccharide I. Accordingly, these findings suggest that chitosanoligosaccharides are potential chemopreventive agents.

The effects of naturally occurring furanocoumarins on cytochrome P-450 have been investigated in rat liver microsomes. Incubation of microsomes with an NADPH-generating system and four furanocoumarins such as imperatorin, isoimperatorin, phellopterin and byakangelicin at $37^{\circ}$ in vitro resulted in a significant destruction of cytochrome P-450. A single treatment(50 mg/kg, i.p.) of rats with each furanocoumarin caused a rapid loss of cytochrome P-450 accompanied by the loss of heme from the microsomes but not by the loss of cytochrome $b_5$. It is suggested that cytochrome P-450 is specifically destroyed by furanocoumarins in a metabolic process involving destruction of its heme group and as a consequence, hepatic enzyme activities are depressed markedly.
