CYP1 enzymes, CYP1A1, CYP1A2 and CYP1B1, are known to bioactivate procarcinogens particularly polyaromatic compounds. Flavonoids are a class of natural compounds that are present in edible plants. Structurally, these compounds are polyphenols with two aromatic rings (A, B) and a heterocycyclic ring (C). We observed the differential inhibition of 5,7-dihydroxyflavones which are different in numbers of B-ring-OH, to the activity of ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) in human hepatic microsomes with the IC50 values, ie, 0.57 mM, 1.28 mM, and 3.62 mM, chrysin, apigenin, and Luteolin, respectively.

In the present study we evaluated drug-drug interaction potential of ambroxol and cetirizine mediated by inhibition of CYP isoforms including CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1 and CYP3A4 using pooled human liver microsomes (HLMs). As measured by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry, cetirizine and ambroxol inhibited significantly CYP2E1 but the maximal inhibition was approximately 36% at 10 ${\mu}M$ cetirizine and 28% at 3 ${\mu}M$ ambroxol. In addition, CYP2D6 activity was decreased to approximately 83% of control activity in pooled HLM incubated with 3 ${\mu}M$ ambroxol. Activities of CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 were not significantly inhibited by cetirizine and ambroxol. Considering their maximal plasma concentration in human ($C_{max}$ of cetirizine is approximately 0.67 ${\mu}M$ and $C_{max}$ of ambroxol is 0.044 ${\mu}M$), these two drugs have very low possibility in drug-drug interaction by CYP inhibition in clinical situations.

The genetically determined CYP2D6 activity as considered to be associated with cancer susceptibility with inter-individual variation. Genetic polymorphism of CYP2D6(B) and CYP2D6(T) was determined by the two polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and BstN1 and EcoN1 restriction fragment length polymorphisms(RFLP) for 67 lung cancer cases and 95 healthy volunteer controls. The cases were composed of 26 squamous cell carcinoma, 14 small cell carcinoma, 10 adenocarcinoma, 3 large cell undifferentiated carcinoma, and 14 not histologically diagnosed. The results were gained from the 142 subjects (57 cases and 85 controls) who observed successfully in two PCR and BstNl/EcoN1 RELP. Only one and no mutant allele of the CYP2D6(B) and CYP2D6(T) gene was detected, that is, the frequency of mutant allele was very low; 0.7%(1/142) and 0%(0/142), respectively. Detected mutant allele of the CYP2D6(B) was beterozygous type(WM). The odds ratios for lung cancer susceptibility with CYP2D6(B) and CYP2D6(T) genotype were not calculated. These results are similar to the previous understanding that the mutant allele is very rare in Orientals compared to Caucasians, therefore, it considered that CYP2D6(B) and CYP2D6(T) genotypes have maybe no association with lung cancer susceptibility in Koreans. This is the basic data of CYP2D6(B) and CYP2D6(T) genotypes for Koreans. It would be hepful for further study to determine lung cancer susceptibility of Koreans with the data about CYP1A1, CYP2E1, GSTM1 from future study.

3'-Hydroxygenistein can be obtained from the biotransformation of genistein by the engineered Pichia pastoris X-33 strain, which harbors a fusion gene composed of CYP57B3 from Aspergillus oryzae and a cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase gene (sCPR) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. P. pastoris X-33 mutants with higher 3'-hydroxygenistein production were selected using a periodic hydrogen peroxide-shocking strategy. One mutant (P2-D14-5) produced 23.0 mg/l of 3'-hydroxygenistein, representing 1.87-fold more than that produced by the recombinant X-33. When using a 5 L fermenter, the P2-D14-5 mutant produced 20.3 mg/l of 3'-hydroxygenistein, indicating a high potential for industrial-scale 3'-hydroxygenistein production.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The purpose of the current study was to investigate the effect of red pericarp glutinous rice rich in polyphenols (Jakwangchalbyeo, red rice) on serum and hepatic levels of cholesterol and hepatic protein expression linked to synthesis and degradation of cholesterol in a hypercholesterolemic mice diet as compared with brown rice. MATERIALS/METHODS: C57BL/6 male mice were randomly divided into four groups (n = 5 each), which were fed different diets for a period of 12 weeks: American Institute of Nutrition (AIN)-93G diet, AIN-93G diet with 2% cholesterol, brown rice with 2% cholesterol, or red rice with 2% cholesterol. RESULT: Consumption of red rice resulted in a significant decrease in serum level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and hepatic levels of triglyceride and total-cholesterol. Expression of acyl-coenzyme A cholesterol acyltransferase-2 (ACAT-2), sterol regulatory element binding protein-2 (SREBP-2), and 3-hydroxyl-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase was decreased, while expression of phosphorylated adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase (p-AMPK)/AMPK ratio, cholesterol 7-${\alpha}$-hydroxylase (CYP7a1), and sterol 12-${\alpha}$-hydroxylase (CYP8b1) was increased in mice fed red rice. Brown rice had similar effects on cholesterol metabolism, but the effect of red rice was significantly greater than that of brown rice. CONCLUSIONS: The current study suggested that red rice had a hypocholesterolemic effect by lowering hepatic cholesterol synthesis through ACAT-2, HMG-CoA reductase, and SREBP-2, and by enhancing hepatic cholesterol degradation through CYP7a1 and CYP8b1 in mice fed a hypercholesterolemic diet.

The present study was performed to evaluate the hangover relieving effect of germinated buckwheat (GB) and Sanghwang mushroom mycelium cultured in GB (SGB). Both GB and SGB showed 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activities and significantly increased (p < 0.001) aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activities; up to 140% increase at concentrations of $16{\mu}L/mL$. Locomotor activity test results from alcohol-SGB and alcohol-GB groups showed improved motor activities over that of the alcohol-water group at 90 min post-administration. Both alcohol-GB and alcohol-SGB groups had significantly reduced (p < 0.001) alcohol ($40.02{\pm}33.38{\mu}g/mL$, $66.01{\pm}22.04{\mu}g/mL$, respectively) and aldehyde ($5.72{\pm}0.47{\mu}g/mL$, $6.72{\pm}1.70{\mu}g/mL$, respectively) concentrations in blood compared to those in the alcohol-water group ($199.75{\pm}33.83{\mu}g/mL$, $50.43{\pm}13.88{\mu}g/mL$, respectively) at 90 min post-administration. Based on cDNA microarray analysis, expressions of ALDH genes ALDH1a7 and ALDH18a1 and cytochrome P450 (CY450) gene CYP4a30b were upregulated in the alcohol-GB and alcohol-SGB groups compared to levels in the control group. Overall, the results suggest that both GB and SGB have hangover relieving effects by reducing blood acetaldehyde levels. The molecular mechanisms may involve ALDH activation and upregulated expression of alcohol metabolism-related genes such as ALDH and CYP450.

본 연구에서는 104명의 성인남녀를 대상으로 그들의 GSTT1, GSTM1, GSTP1의 유전적 다형성 분포도를 조사한 결과, 전체 대상자들 중 각각 60명(57.4%), 42명(40.6%)가 GSTT1 과 GSTM1의 유전자를 가지고 있었으며, GSTT1과 GSTM1 유전자가 둘 다를 가진 대상자는 27명(25.7%), 둘 중에 하나만 가지고 있는 사람은 47명(45.5%) 그리고 둘 다 없는 사람은 30명으로 28.7%에 해당되었다. GSTP1 유전자의 경우 homozygous(a/a) wild type은 79명(75.5%)으로 대부분의 대상자가 여기에 해당되었으며, heterozygous(a/b) heterozygous type은 22명(21.6%), 그리고 homozygous(b/b) wild type으로 나타난 대상자는 3명(2.9%)이었다. GSTT1 null type은 산화적 스트레스를 더 많이 받고 있는 것으로 알려진흡연자의 비율이 present 군에 비해 낮음에도 불구하고 적혈구 GSH의 농도는 유의적으로 낮고 임파구 DNA 손상정도는 유의적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. GSTM1 유전자의 경우 적혈구 GSH-Px의 활성만이 GSTM1 null type이 presenttype에 비해 유의적으로 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 나머지 다른 지표에서는 GSTM1 null type과 present type 간의 유의적인 차이가 없었다. GSTP1 유전자 다형성에 따른 항산화 영양상태의 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 흡연과 GST 유전자 다형성의 상호작용결과, 혈장 ${\alpha}$-carotene 농도, 적혈구 GSH-Px와 GST 활성은 GSTT1 null type의 경우 흡연자에 비해 비흡연자가 유의적으로 높게 나타났으며, GSTT1 present type에서는 흡연자와 비흡연자간의 유의적인 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. GSTM1 유전자의 경우 GSTM1의 null type에서 흡연자의 경우 비흡연자에 비해 혈장 ${\gamma}$-tocopherol과 ${\beta}$-carotene 수준이 유의적으로 낮았다. GSTT1과 GSTM1 유전자가 둘 다 없는 경우(both null)에는 흡연자의 혈장 lycopene과 적혈구 GST 활성이 비흡연자에 비해 유의적으로 낮았다. GSTP1 유전자의 경우 혈장 ${\alpha}$-carotene과 적혈구 GSH-Px 활성은 a/a type의 흡연자가 비흡연자에 비해 유의적으로 낮았고, 적혈구 catalase의 활성은 a/b type에서 흡연자가 비흡연자에 비해 유의적으로 낮았으며, ${\beta}$-carotene 농도는 두 type 모두에서 유의적으로 흡연자가 낮았다. 이상의 연구 결과 GST 유전적 다형성에따라 산화, 항산화 관련 효소 활성 및 항산화 영양소 수준의상태가 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 특히 흡연자의 경우 GST 유전자 type에 따라 항산화 영양상태가 더 큰 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 결과는 유전적 다형성에따라 항산화 영양소의 권장수준을 책정하는데 기초연구자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다. 즉, GSTT1 또는 GSTM1 null type의 경우 비흡연자에 비해 흡연자가 항산화 영양소 수준이 더 낮게 나타났으므로 그들의 체내 항산화 영양 상태를 증가시킬 수 있는 여러 방안들, 즉 항산화 비타민의 보충투여 및 야채와 과일의 섭취 권장 등이 고려될 수 있을 것이다. 또한 GST 유전자 다형성에 따라 항산화 영양상태의 차이가 있으므로 항산화 관련 in vitro 실험, 동물 및 인체 실험의 결과 해석 시 나타나는 개인 간의 변이차이는 GST 유전자 다형성으로 일부분 설명될 수 있으리라 기대된다. 향후대상자의 범위를 좀 더 넓혀서 GST 유전자 다형성과 항산화 영양상태의 관계를 규명하고자 하며 더불어 산화물질 해독에 관여하는 다른 유전자(CYP 450, SULT 등)의 역할에 대해서도 계속적인 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다.
