Cytochrome P450(CYP) gene is involved in the biotransformation of drugs and environmental pollutants. In this study, we analyzed the nucleotide sequence of the Anguilla japonica CYP1(AjCYP1) family gene and examined the relative expression of AjCYP1A, AjCYP1B and AjCYP1C1 in response to the exposure to environmental pollutants. After exposure to B[a]P 20mg/kg bw, the expression of AjCYP1 family gene increased over time. Among four tissues examined (liver, spleen, gill and kidney), AjCYP1 family gene was expressed significantly in the kidney. Compared with the control group, AjCYP1A was expressed about 5-fold at 48 hr, AjCYP1B about 6-fold at 24 hr, and AjCYP1C1 about 4-fold at 24 hr. However, after exposure to B[a]P 200mg/kg bw, AjCYP1A did not change in all tissues. On the other hand, AjCYP1B was expressed at about 4-fold at 24 hr in the spleen and 4-fold at 48 hr in the gill. Finally AjCYP1C1 was expressed 3.7-fold and 4.3-fold in the spleen and kidneys at 48 hr, respectively. Taken together, our results suggest that the expression of AjCYP1 gene in eel tissues might be used as a useful tool to assess the exposure to environmental pollutants in aquaculture system.

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.

Objectives : Achyranthes bidentata radix (Usul) has been used as anti-arthritic, antiallergic, antidiuretic, and so on. Recently extracts of Achyranthes bidentata radix have shown anti-inflammatory and cancer preventive effects in vitro and in vivo. Methods : We therefore evaluated the inhibitory potential of ethanol extracts of Achyranthes bidentata radix on cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms-catalyzed reactions, which relate to causes of cancer and inflammation, including CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2E1, CYP2D6, CYP2C8, and CYP3A4, using human liver microsomal preparations. Results : The extracts showed weak or negligible inhibitory effects on CYP2C9-catalyzed (S)-warfarin 7-hydroxylation, CYP2C19-catalyzed S-mephenytoin 4-hydroxylation, and CYP2D6-catalyzed dextromethorphan O-demethylation with each IC50 over 1750 g/ml, respectively. However, it showed relatively significant inhibitory effect on CYP1A2-catalyzed phenacetin O-deethylation and CYP2E1-catalyzed chlorzoxazone 6-hydroxylation with IC50s of 970.5 g/ml and 821.4 g/ml, respectively. Conclusions : These results suggest that extracts of Achyranthes bidentata radix have inhibitory effects on CYP-catalyzed reactions, especiallyCYP1A2 and CYP2E1, in human liver microsomes. These effects appear to relate to anti-inflammatory and cancer prevention following decrease of reactive oxygen species formed by CYP, especially CYP1A2 and CYP2E1, by Achyranthes bidentata radix. However, further evaluation is necessary to demonstrate and to confirm its effects in human.

Objective : The aim of present study is to evaluate the inhibitory potential of licorice extract and glycyrrhizin on cytochrome P450(CYP) in human liver microsomes. Methods : Using human liver microsomes, water extract of licorice and glycyrrhizin as an inhibitor were co-incubated with each probe drug representing selective CYP isoform activity. We measured relative metabolic activity in incubation condition compared to that with no extract of licorice using HPLC system. Results : Both water extracts of licorice and glycyrrhizin showed inhibitory effect on CYP-catalyzed reactions. CYP2C19 $(IC_{50}=126.7{\mu}g/ml)$ is most potently inhibited by water extract than other tested CYP isoforms$(IC_{50}>450{\mu}g/ml)$, but glycyrrhizin exhibited potent inhibition on CYP1A2$(IC_{50}=106.9{\mu}g/ml)$ followed by CYP2C9 and CYP2D6. Conclusion: These results indicate that water extract of licorice and glycyrrhizin have inhibitory potential on CYP-catalyzed reaction in human liver microsomes. But the mechanism of inhibition was slightly different between them Water extract of licorice mainly inhibited CYP2C19, and glycyrrhizin primarily inhibited CYP1A2. The inhibition by water extract of licorice and glycyrrhizin on CYP isoforms may cause drug interaction with co-administered drug leading to toxicity or treatment failure.

CYP 효소는 내인성 및 외인성 화학물질의 대사에 핵심적인 역할을 담당한다. 특히, 약물, 자연생성물 및 환경 독성 화학물질 등은 조직에 따라 특이적 CYP 효소 유전자의 발현을 조절하며, 이는 체내 유입된 약물과 독성물질 등과 같은 화학물질들 사이의 상호작용을 유발하여 이들의 대사에 영향을 줌으로써, 결국 치료 효과와 독성 효과에 변화를 초래한다. 이 분야에 대한 지난 수십 년 동안의 집중적인 연구는, 이러한 CYP 효소 유전자의 발현조절을 매개하는 분자적 기전을 이해하는 데 상당한 진전을 가져왔다. 이제는 구체적인 CYP 효소 유전자의 발현 유도를 조절하는 화합물들뿐만 아니라, 이를 감지하여 특정 CYP 유전자의 발현 조절을 매개하는 데 관여하는 수용체들과 이들의 신호전달 경로들이 비교적 상세히 밝혀졌다. 본 총설에서는, 다양한 화학물질의 노출에 반응하여 CYP 효소 유전자들의 발현 유도를 매개하는 것으로 알려진 주요 외인성 물질-감지 수용체들과 기타 조절인자들의 분자적 작용기전을 요약한다.

Objectives : We investigated the effects of Bojungikgi-tang (BJIGT) on P450 cytochrome enzyme and oxidative stress in the cells. Methods : We enrolled the HepG2 hepatocyte cell line to assess MTT assay, flow cytometer, and immunoblotting analysis. Expression of CYP450 was confirmed by immunoblotting analysis in the Huh7 cell line. Results : We determined that BJIKT markdely changed the expression of the CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP2E1. Moreover, BJIKT inhibited the cell toxicity induced by arachidonic acid + iron treatment, as assessed by FACS analysis. BJIKT induced AMPK activation, which increased the phophorylation of ACC. Conclusions : This study verified the effects of BJIKT, on P450, ROS production, mitochondrial damage and AMPK signaling pathway, which might give us the scientific information about the traditional herbal prescription.

The carbon tetrachloride($CCl_4$) has been demonstrated to have a hepatotoxic effect in human or many other species. To investigate the enzyme induction of mixed function oxygenases in liver of male Sprague-Dawley rats a single 0.1, 0.5 mι/kg dose of carbon tetrachloride were given. At 24 hr after a single dose of 0.1 mι CC1$_4$/kg weight, methanol extract of Hedera rhombea leaves was administered with 100, 500 mg/kg weight. Assays of 7-ethoxyresorufin-Ο-deethylation(EROD),7-benzyloxyresorufin-Ο-deathylation(BROD),4-nitro-phenol-UDP-glucuronosyltransferase(UDPGT), Western blot and RNA slot blot were used as representatives of the activities of cytochrome P-450 enzymes. The change of the activity of CYP1A1 form measured by EROD assay and Western analysis using 1-7-1 monoclonal antibody was not observed. The activity CYP2B1 form by BROD assay and using 2-66-3 monoclonal antibody was remarkably increased. Elevated level of CYP2B1 mRNA was shown by slot hybridization with 2B1-specific probe. Administration of methanol extract of Hedera rhombea leaves reversed the enzyme activity and the level of mRNA, which suggest the chemoprotective effect of methanol extracts of Hedera rhombea leaves to carbon tetrachloride hepatotoxlcity.

모넨신, 니저리신, 사이클로스포린 등을 하이드록실레이션 시키는 균주인 S. benihana에 존재하는 여러 가지 CYP를 클로닝하기 위해, 방선균 CYP의 보존된 부분을 통해서 degenerate primer를 제작하였고, colony hybridization을 통해서 스크리닝 한 결과 총 5 종류의 CYP가 검색되었다. 아미노산 서열의 분석 결과 방선균의 CYP 들과 매우 높은 유사성을 가졌으며, 이들 CYP의 앞 뒤 서열의 검색 결과 이 중 4개의 CYP의 downstream에는 FD 유전자가 존재함을 알 수 있었다. CYP503의 경우 다른 나머지 4개의 CYP의 서열과 차이가 많았으며, 2차 대사산물의 변형과 관련되어 있을 것으로 예상되며, ChoP와 유사성을 보이는 나머지 4개의 CYP는 스테로이드 계열 물질의 하이드록실레이션과 밀접한 연관이 있을 것으로 추정된다.

Influences of capsaicin on the activities of cytochrome P45O of liver cell were studied in rats. Rats were provided food and water ad libitum and capsaicin and methylcellulose were gavaged for 6 days. Body weight gain and liver weight/body weight ratio, microsomal protein content and serum HDL- cholesterol content, the activity of cytochrome P450 and erythromycin demethylase, the activities of ethoxyresorufin and pentoxyresorufin O- dealkylase were determined. Capsaicin increased body weight gain but showed no significant changes on liver weight as compared with control group. Capsaicin increased the microsomal protein significantly but decreased the serum HDL- cholesterol. Capsaicin decreased the microsomal cytochrome P4SO significantly and did not show any influences on erythromycin demethylase ( cytochrome P45O III A ). Capsaicin increased the activity of pentoxyresorufin O- dealkylase ( cytochrome P45O II B) and decreased the activity of ethoxyresorufin O-dealkylase ( cytochrome P45O I A). It might be concluded that capsaicin reduced the microsomal cytochrome P45O and induced the CYP III and inhibited the CYP I A. It also might be concluded that capsaicin had no influence on CYP III A and decreased serum HDL- cholesterol. In these results capsaicin can not be used as an anti- atherosclerotic agent by increasing the CYP III A and HDL- cholesterol but it is considered that the more precise study on these theme is necessary.
