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.

${\beta}-lonone$ has been reported to induce the cytochrome P45O (P45O) 2B1 in rats. In this study, the effects of ${\beta}-ionone$ and an isomer, ${\alpha}-ionone$, on liver P45O IA and 2B expression in Sprague Dawley rats were investigated . Subcutaneous administration of ${\alpha}-$ and ${\beta}-lonone$ 72 and 48hr prior to sacrificing the animals induced the liver microsomal P45O 1A and 2B proteins. P45O 2Bl induction was associated with the accumulation of its corresponding mRNA. 1 Induction by ${\beta}-lonone$ was much higher than that by ${\alpha}-ionone$-ionone in both the mRNA and protein levels. When the route of administration was compared, P45O 2B was induced more strongly after oral administration compared to that after subcutaneous injection. A single oral dose of 100, 300 and 600 mg/kg of ${\alpha}-$ and ${\beta}-lonone$ for 24 h induced P45O 2B1 -selective pentoxyresorufin Odepentylase activity comparably in a dose-dependent manner In addition, ${\alpha}-$ and ${\beta}-lonone$ induced the P45O 1A and 2B proteins. These results suggest that ${\alpha}-$ and ${\beta}-lonone$ might be potent P45O 2Bl inducers in rats, and that both ionones may be useful for examining the role of metabolic activation in chemical-induced toxicity where metabolic activation is required.

본 연구는 내분비교란물질로 알려진 TBTC가 해양생물에게 미치는 영향을 조사하는 연구의 일환으로, 이 화합물에 노출시킨 어류의 간장 MFO 효소계의 반응을 in vitro로 조사하였다. 대상 어류는 개복치(Mola mola), 숭어(Mugil cephalus), 강도다리(Ptatichthys stellatus), 청어(Clupeu pallasii), 붕장어(Astroconger myriaster), 조피볼락 (Sebastes schlegeli), 참돔(Pugrus major), 넙치(Paralichthys olivaceus)이며, 이들의 간장 미크로좀을 2mM의 TBTC와 in vitro (3$0^{\circ}C$, 20분)로 배양하고 cytoch-rome P45O (CYP), cytochrome b5, NAD(P)H -cytochro-me c 환원효소를 비롯한 탈알킬화 효소들(EROD, PROD, MROD, ECOD)의 변화를 조사하였다. TBTC는 환원효소의 측정 시에는 DMSO에, 그리고 그 밖의 효소 측정시에는 메탄올에 녹여 2% 농도로. 첨가하였다. 어류의 간장 CYP 함량은 TBTC와 배양 후 대부분(6 어류/8어류)에서 10% 이하로 크게 저해되었으나, cyto-chrome b5함량은 변함이 없었다. 하지만 NAD(P)H 의존성 환원효소의 반응은 어류에 따라 달랐고, CYP 외에 두 환원효소도 모두 영향을 받아 저해되는 타입 1(개복치, 조피볼락, 청어, 강도다리, 참돔), CYP 외에 NADH 의존성 환원효소만 저해되는 타입 2(붕장어, 숭어)및 CYP 저해되지만 두 환원효소는 영향을 받지 않거나 오히려 유도되는 타입 3 (넙치)으로 구분되었다. 그리고 대부분(7/8)의 어류에서는 NADH 의존성 환원효소가 NADPH 의존성 환원효소에 비해 더욱 저해되는 경향을 보였다. TBTC는 어류의 탈알킬화 효소에도 영향을 미쳤고, 어류별 EROD활성의 저해는 개복치, 참돔, 붕장어, 조피볼락(잔존율 1~7%)>숭어, 청어 (14~30%)>넙치, 강도다리(56~65%)의 순이었으며, ECOD 활성의 저해도 개복치, 참돔, 붕장어 (36~38%)>조피볼락(63%))숭어, 청어, 넙치, 강도다리(90%)의 순으로 비슷한 경향이었다. 한편, 넙치와 강도다리에서는 PROD가 MROD보다 더욱 심하게 저해되었다. 이처럼 어류 간장의 약물대사 효소계는 TBTC에 의한 저해 정도가 어류에 따라 심한 차이를 보였다.

Expression of xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes can be altered by xenobiotics, which represents changes in the production of reactive metabolic intermediates as well as toxicities in tissues. Metabolic intermediates derived from xenobiotics are considered to produce the reactive oxygen species including drug free radicals and hydroxyl free radicals, which would be ultimately responsible for drug-induced toxicities. The effects of 1,2-benzothiazine anti-inflammatory agents on the expression of xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes including major cytochrome P450s, microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) were studied in the liver with the aim of providing the part of information on potential production of reactive metabolites and hepatotoxicity by the agents. The synthetic compounds 24, 36 and 39 exhibited anti-inflammatory effects in rats as assessed by the Randall-Selitto method. The anti-inflammatory effect was detected as early as at 30 min after gavaging the agents with the ED5O being noted at 80 mg/kg, which was comparable to that of ibuprofen. Treatment of rats with each compound (100 mg/kg, 3d) resulted in no significant induction in the immunochemically-detectable cytochromes P45O 1A1/2, P450 2B1/2, P45O 2 Cl1 and P45O 2El. Changes in the mEN expression were also minimal, as evidenced by both Western blot and Northern blot analyses. Hepatic GST expression was slightly increased by the agents: GST Ya protein and mRNA expression was ～1.5-fold increased after treatment with compounds 24 and 39, whereas GST Yb1/2 and Yc1/2 mRNA levels were elevated 2- to 3-fold. In summary the effects of the synthetic 1,2-benzothiazines on the expression of major P45O, mEH and G57 were not significant, providing evidence that metabolic activation of the agents, potential drug interaction and hepatotoxicity would be minimal.

Previously, we showed that acetone enhanced aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) activity in only 3-methylcholanthrene (MC)- or $\beta$-naphtoflavone (BNF)-inducible microsomes of rat liver. In the present study, the possible mechanism underlying acetone action on AHH was investigated in the liver microsomes from MC-pretreated rats. Other n-alkylketones except acetone did not increase AHH activity, which rather decreased significantly with the length of alkyl side chain. Acetone had no effect on the activity of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase or inhibited the formation of 3-OH benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P) in nonenzymatic model ascorbic acid system. However, in cumene hydroperoxide (CuOOH)-supported B(a)P hydroxylation, acetone enhanced its velocity remarkably by 30% at the optimal concentration (30 $\mu$M CuOOH and 1.0% acetone). From these results, we conclude that acetone may facilitate the formation of an activated oxygen species or the insertion of oxygen into B(a)P molecule in CYP1A rich microsomes.

Effects of 4-nonylphenol (4-NP) on mixed function oxygenase (MFO) in the kidneies of rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli) were investigated. The cytochrome P45O (CYP) contents and NADPH cytochrome P450 reductase, NADH cytochrome b5 reductase and 7-ethoxyredorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) activities of microsome, glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity of cytosol in rockfish exposed to 4-NP for 7 days using an intraperitoneal injection (25 mg/kg) were quantitatively determined. The GST activity of rockfish exposed to 4-NP were higher, up to 5.2 times higher, than those in the control fish. The activities of NADPH-and NADH-dependent reductases were inhibited. On the other hand, CYP contents and EROD activity of the 4-NP exposed fish demonstrated neither an increasing or decreasing trend.

A difference in ethanol metabolism between premature and young adult rats was examined. Female SD rats, either 4wk or 12wk old, were injected with a single dose of ethanol (1.5g /kg) through jugular vein and the blood ethanol level was monitored for 300 min using a gas chromatographic method. Reduction of blood ethanol level per unit of time was less and the area under the blood concentration-time curve (AUC) was significantly greater in young adults compared to premature rats. Activity of hepatic alcohol dehydrogenase was not influenced by the age increase. Total cytochrome P-450, cytochrome $b_5$. or aminopyrine N-demethylation was not different between premature rats and young adult rats. However, p-nitrophenol hydroxylation and p-nitroanisole O-demethylation activities were significantly higher in premature rats. The relative liver weight was 45% greater in premature rats leading to an overall increase in ethanol metabolizing activity in these animals. The results indicate that the reduction in ethanol elimination in young adult rats appears to be mostly associated with the decrease in relative liver weight as the age of animals increases.

TSAHC [4'-(p-toluenesulfonylamido)-4-hydroxychalcone] is a promising antitumorigenic chalcone compound, especially against TM4SF5 (four-transmembrane L6 family member 5)-mediated hepatocarcinoma. We evaluated the potential of TSAHC to inhibit the catalytic activities of nine cytochrome P450 isoforms and of P-glycoprotein (P-gp). The abilities of TSAHC to inhibit phenacetin O-deethylation (CYP1A2), coumarin 6-hydroxylation (CYP2A6), bupropion hydroxylation (CYP2B6), amodiaquine N-deethylation (CYP2C8), diclofenac 4-hydroxylation (CYP2C9), omeprazole 5-hydroxylation (CYP2C19), dextromethorphan O-demethylation (CYP2D6), chlorzoxazone 6-hydroxylation (CYP2E1), and midazolam 1'-hydroxylation (CYP3A) were tested using human liver microsomes. The P-gp inhibitory effect of TSAHC was assessed by [$^3H$]digoxin accumulation in the LLCPK1-MDR1 cell system. TSAHC strongly inhibited CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19 isoform activities with $K_i$ values of 0.81, 0.076, and $3.45{\mu}M$, respectively. It also enhanced digoxin accumulation in a dose-dependent manner in the LLCPK1-MDR1 cells. These findings indicate that TSAHC has the potential to inhibit CYP2C isoforms and P-gp activities in vitro. TSAHC might be used as a nonspecific inhibitor of CYP2C isoforms based on its negligible inhibitory effect on other P450 isoforms such as CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A.
