2-Hydroxyestradiol, 2-hydroxyestrone and 2-hydroxy-17α-ethynylestradiol, oxidation products of naturally occurring estrogens and synthetic estrogens in some oral contraceptives were found to be converted by rat liver microsomes to reactive metabolites that become irreversibly bound to microsomal protein. The irreversible binding required microsomes, oxygen and NADPH. The NADPH could be replaced by a xanthine-xanthine oxidase system which is known to generate superoxide anions. The irreversible binding was substantially inhibited by superoxide dismutase, 30% in those incubations containing NADPH and 98% in those incubations containing the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system. Further studies with 2-hydroxyestradiol showed that microsomal cytochrome P-450 was rate limiting in the NADPH-dependent irreversible binding, because the binding was inhibited 62% by an antibody against NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and 70% in an atmosphere of CO:O2 (9:1) when compared to an atmosphere of N2:O2 (9:1). Phenobarbital, a known inducer of cytochrome P-450, had no effect on the irreversible binding of 2-hydroxyestradiol, whereas another inducer of P-450, pregnenolone-16α-carbonitrile, markedly increased the irreversible binding. In contrast, cobaltous chloride, an inhibitor of the synthesis of cytochrome P-450, decreased both P-450 and the irreversible binding. These results are consistent with a mechanism for irreversible binding of estrogens and 2-hydroxyestrogens to microsomes that requires oxidation of the catechol nucleus by cytochrome P-450-generated superoxide anion.  相似文献

1. The cytotoxicity of N-nitrosomethylaniline (NMA) towards hepatocytes isolated from rats was prevented by acetone or ethanol (inhibitors for cytochrome P-450IIE1) but not by metyrapone or SKF525A (inhibitors for cytochrome P-450IIB1/2). Various alcohols, secondary ketones and isothiocyanates that induced cytochrome P-450IIE1 were also found to be protective. Various aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents that are substrates or inducers of cytochrome P-450IIE1 also prevented NMA cytotoxicity. Nitrogen-containing heterocycles that induced cytochrome P-450IIE1 were less effective. Further evidence that cytochrome P-450IIE1 was responsible for the activation of NMA was the marked increase in hepatocyte susceptibility if hepatocytes from pyrazole-induced rats were used. 2. NMA was more cytotoxic to hepatocytes isolated from phenobarbital-pretreated rats than uninduced rats. However, metyrapone now prevented and SKF525A delayed the cytotoxicity whereas ethanol, acetone, allyl isocyanate, isoniazid or trichloroethylene had no effect on the susceptibility of phenobarbital-induced hepatocytes. Furthermore, microsomes isolated from phenobarbital-pretreated rats had higher NMA-N-demethylase activity which was more inhibited by metyrapone and SKF525A than that of uninduced microsomal activity. By contrast the N-demethylase activity of phenobarbital induced microsomes was more resistant to acetone, ethanol, hexanal, trichloroethylene and toluene than uninduced microsome. 3. The above results suggest that cytochrome P-450IIE1 catalyses the cytotoxic activation of NMA in normal or pyrazole-induced hepatocytes whereas cytochrome P-450IIB1/2 is responsible for cytotoxicity in phenobarbital-induced hepatocytes.  相似文献

Anaerobic in vitro incubation of microsomes from phenobarbital(PB)-induced rats with halothane results in an irreversible decrease of measurable cytochrome P-450. There is a parallel decrease in heme content under the same incubation conditions. However, microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene(3-MC)-induced or untreated animals do not show a reduction in cytochrome P-450 content. Aerobic incubation with halothane results in a decrease of cytochrome P-450 which can be completely reversed by dialysis or the addition of potassium ferricyanide. These latter treatments only partially restore the cytochrome P-450 levels following anaerobic incubations. The decrease in cytochrome caused by halothane is not associated with measureable heme N-alkyl adduct formation; lipid peroxidation does not play a role as indicated by the lack of effect of 1 mM EDTA or a decrease in glucose-6-phosphatase activity. Halothane metabolites are bound irreversibly to microsomal protein as determined by gel electrophoresis only when the oxygen concentration is very low. The mechanism of cytochrome P-450 decrease is consistent with the formation of a reactive metabolite which binds to the protein portion and also destroys heme.  相似文献

Lipophilic thiol compounds interact spectrally with liver microsomes from phenobarbital-pretreated rats by formation of unusual optical difference spectra with peaks at 378, 471, 522 and 593 nm in the oxidized state. The binding kinetics were biphasic. The EPR spectrum of cytochrome P-450 was slightly modified but the magnitude of the low-spin signal was unchanged. n-Octanethiol competitively displaced metyrapone and n-octane from the active site of cytochrome P-450. Other thiols behaved similarly with variations in the magnitude and the affinity of the binding process. Tertiary thiols caused the formation of the high-spin cytochrome P-450 substrate complex, and model studies with myoglobin revealed that steric hindrance prevented the liganding of the tertiary thiol group to the ferric cytochrome P-450. Addition of thiols to dithionite reduced microsomes resulted in relatively small spectral changes with maxima at 449 nm typical for ligand complexes of the ferrous cytochrome. It was concluded that lipophilic thiols can be bound as ligands by at least two species of oxidized cytochrome P-450 which represent, however, not more than about one fifth of the total cytochrome P-450 content in liver microsomes from phenobarbital-pretreated rats.  相似文献

The major phenobarbital-inducible form of cytochrome P-450 (cytochrome P-450 PB) was purified to homogeneity from rat liver microsomes and rabbit antibodies prepared against the purified enzyme. Using these antibodies, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the detection of cytochrome P-450 PB in microsomes which was sensitive at the nanogram level. The content of cytochrome P-450 PB was determined in hepatic microsomes from rats treated with various xenobiotics. Phenobarbital and Aroclor 1254 pretreatments resulted in several-fold increases in immunoreactive cytochrome P-450 PB over control levels. ELISA measurements of cytochrome P-450 PB were also carried out over a 48-h time course of phenobarbital induction in liver microsomes. Significant increases over control levels were seen at 16 h and beyond. Measurements of ELISA-detectable cytochrome P-450 PB were made in microsomes following the administration of CCl4 to phenobarbital-pretreated rats. Immunoreactive cytochrome P-450 PB was observed to decrease less rapidly than the spectrally detectable enzyme in the microsomal membranes. Inhibition of heme synthesis was carried out by the administration of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (AT) to rats. Concomitant pretreatment with phenobarbital and AT resulted in levels of ELISA-detectable cytochrome P-450 PB which were significantly increased over control levels, while spectrally detectable levels of total holoenzyme remained unchanged. These results support the idea that this cytochrome P-450 may exist, at least partly, in the microsomal membrane in an inactive or apoprotein form.  相似文献

Summary Immunohistochemical localization of cytochrome P-450 in the colonic mucosa of 3-methylcholanthrene-pretreated and untreated rats was studied by indirect fluorescent antibody staining technique. A polyclonal antibody for cytochrome P-450MC purified from hepatic microsomes of 3-methylcholanthrene-pretreated rats was used for this experiment. A strong immunofluorescence was found to be localized in the cytoplasm of the surface epithelium of the mucosa in the colon of 3-methylcholanthrene-pretreated rats. A faint immunofluorescence was also observed in the epithelium of untreated rats. 7-Ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase activity of colonic microsomes was significantly enhanced by 3-methylcholanthrene-pretreatment in parallel with an increase in the intensity of immunostaining for cytochrome P-450MC in Western blotting analysis. This is the first report on the localization of cytochrome P-450 in the colonic mucosa.  相似文献

Administration of allylisopropylacetamide (AIA) to phenobarbital-pretreated rats results in the destruction of several phenobarbital-inducible cytochrome P-450 isoenzymes and a correspondingly marked loss of benzphetamine N-demethylase and ethylmorphine N-demethylase activities. Accordingly, the ion-exchange h.p.l.c. or DEAE-cellulose-chromatographic profile of solubilized microsomal preparations from such rats revealed a marked decrease in the cytochrome P-450 content of several eluted fractions compared with that of microsomes from corresponding non-AIA-treated controls. Incubation of liver homogenates from such rats with haemin restores not only cytochrome P-450 content from 35 to 62% of original values, but also benzphetamine N-demethylase and ethylmorphine N-demethylase activities, from 23 to 67%, and from 12 to 36% of original values respectively. Moreover, the chromatographic profiles of microsomes prepared from such homogenates indicated increases of cytochrome P-450 content only in some fractions. Reconstitution of mixed-function oxidase activity of cytochrome P-450 by addition of NADPH: cytochrome P-450 reductase to these fractions indicated that incubation with haemin restored benzphetamine N-demethylase activity predominantly, but ethylmorphine N-demethylase activity only minimally. After injection of [14C]AIA, a significant amount of radiolabel was found covalently bound to protein in chromatographic fraction III, and this binding was unaffected by incubation with haemin. Furthermore, the extent of this binding is apparently equimolar to the amount of cytochrome P-450 refractory to haemin reconstitution in that particular fraction. Whether such refractoriness reflects structural inactivation of the apo-cytochrome remains to be determined. Nevertheless, the evidence presented very strongly argues for AIA-mediated inactivation of multiple phenobarbital-induced isoenzymes, only a few of which are structurally and functionally reparable by haemin.  相似文献

Hydrocarbons of different structures interact with microsomal and solubilized cytochrome P-450 from liver of phenobarbital-pretreated rats forming a high spin enzyme-substrate type complex. The affinity of cytochrome P-450 for hydrocarbons increases with increasing lipophilicity independently of the chemical structure. The binding capacity of microsomal P-450 for aliphatic hydrocarbons is generally higher than for aromates. Mutual influence in binding of two different hydrocarbons by microsomal P-450 is stronger among aromatic than among aliphatic hydrocarbons; in both cases it appears to be effected rather by specific interaction of both substances with the binding site than by a nonspecific influence on the microsomal membrane. Only one fraction of low spin form of solubilized cytochrome P-450 from rat liver interacts with hydrocarbons. The binding capacity for aromatic and aliphatic substances corresponds to that found in microsomes. The affinity for the most lipiphilic substrate, perhydrophenanthrene, is equal in microsomal and solubilized preparation; with decreasing lipophilicity the affinity of solubilized P-450 decreases faster than in microsomes. The LM2 fraction of cytochrome P-450 from phenobarbital-pretreated rabbits interacts only with aliphatic hydrocarbons with wide variation of the binding capacity. The affinity is generally one order of magnitude lower than in microsomes. Active fractions of solubilized P-450 from both species are rapidly converted to P-420 by dithionite. The extent of this conversion is strongly reduced by saturation with substrate.  相似文献

Addition of p-nitroanisole to a reaction mixture containing phenobarbital-pretreated rabbit liver microsomes brings about an increase the reoxidation rate of NADH-reduced cytochrome b5. Addition of partially purified cytochrome b5 to a solution containing microsomes results in a marked increase in both NADH- and NADPH-dependent O-demethylation of p-nitroanisole. p-Nitroanisole also increases the rate of NADH mediated cytochrome P-450 reduction. From these and other results described in the Discussion section, we confirm that electrons required for NADH-dependent O-demethylation of p-nitroanisole is transfered from NADH to cytochrome P-450 via cytochrome b5 and that cytochrome P-450 is the enzyme which catalyzes p-nitroanisole O-demethylation.  相似文献

In order to define the site of bioactivation of CCl4, CHCl3 and CBrCl3 in the NADPH cytochrome c reductase-cytochrome P-450 coupled systems of liver microsomes, the 14C-labeled hepatotoxins were incubated invitro with isolated rat liver microsomes and a NADPH-generating system. The covalent binding of radiolabel to microsomal protein was used as a measure of the conversion of the hepatotoxins to reactive intermediates. Omission of NADPH, incubation under CO:O2 (8:2) and addition of a cytochrome c reductase specific antisera mardedly reduced the covalent binding of all three compounds. When cytochrome P-450 was reduced to less than 25% of normal by pretreatment of rats with allylisopropylacetamide (AIA), but cytochrome c reductase activity was unchanged, the covalent binding of CCl4, CHCl3, and CBrCl3 was decreased by 63, 83, 70%, respectively. Incubation under an atmosphere of N2 enhanced the binding of CCl4, inhibited the binding of CHCl3 and did not influence the binding of CBrCl3. It is concluded that cytochrome P-450 is the site of bioactivation of these three compounds rather than NADPH cytochrome c reductase and that CCl4 bioactivation proceeds by cytochrome P-450 dependent reductive pathways, while CHCl3 activation proceeds by cytochrome P-450 dependent oxidative pathways.  相似文献

The fate of hydrogen peroxide has been investigated in rat liver microsomes. The net rate of formation of H2O2 appears to be independent of concomitant substrate hydroxylation in microsomes from controls and phenobarbital treated animals. If rats are pretreated with Pregnenolone-16α-carbonitrile, H2O2 formation increases significantly during N-demethylation of aminopyrine. However, H2O2 is consumed in microsomes from 3-Methylcholanthrene treated rats if aminopyrine and NADPH are present. Since the H2O2 formation and consumption are dependent on induction by different agents and on presence of substrates, its fate might be linked to the spin state of cytochrome P-450.  相似文献

Intraperitoneal administration of chloroquine, primaquine and quinacrine to rats resulted in inhibition of the hepatic microsomal mixed-function oxidases. The N-demethylation of benzphetamine (cytochrome P-450) was inhibited by chloroquine only while the O-deethylation of ethoxyresorufin (cytochrome P-448) was inhibited by primaquine and quinacrine. When incubated with hepatic microsomes from phenobarbital-pretreated rats, chloroquine and primaquine, but not quinacrine, caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of benzphetamine N-demethylase activity. Incubation of hepatic microsomes from beta-naphthoflavone rats with primaquine and quinacrine, but not chloroquine, resulted in a concentration-dependent inhibition of the O-deethylation of ethoxyresorufin. These observations demonstrate that chloroquine and quinacrine are specific inhibitors of cytochromes P-450 and P-448, respectively.  相似文献

Cytochrome P-450 from liver microsomes of phenobarbital-treated rabbits catalyzed anaerobic dehalogenation of halothane (2-bromo-2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane) when combined with NADPH and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase. Cytochromes P-450B1 and P-448 from liver microsomes of untreated rabbits were less active. Triton X-100 accelerated the reaction. Unlike anaerobic dehalogenation of halothane in microsomes, the major product was 2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane and 2-chloro-1,1-difluoroethylene was negligible. These products were not detected under aerobic conditions, and dehalogenation activity was inhibited by carbon monoxide, phenyl isocyanide and metyrapone.  相似文献

Hepatic microsomal azoreductase activity with amaranth (3-hydroxy-4[(4-sulfo-1-naphthalenyl)azo]-2,7-naphthalenedisulfonic acid trisodium salt) as a substrate is proportional to the levels of microsomal cytochrome P-450 from control or phenobarbital-pretreated rats and mice or cytochrome P-448 from 3-methylchol-anthrene-pretreated animals. In the "inducible" C57B/6J strain of mice, 3-methylcholanthrene and phenobarbital pretreatment cause an increase in cytochrome P-448 and P-450 levels, respectively, which is directly proportional to the increase of azoreductase activity. However, in the "noninducible" DBA/2J strain of mice, only phenobarbital treatment causes the increase both in cytochrome P-450 levels and azoreductase activity, while 3-methylcholanthrene has no effect. These experiments suggest that the P-450 type cytochromes are responsible for azoreductase activity in liver microsomes.  相似文献

To study the modulation of the reductive metabolism of halothane (2-bromo-2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane) by microsomal cytochrome b5, formation of 2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane (CTE) and 2-chloro-1,1-difluoroethylene (CDE), major reduced metabolites of halothane, was analyzed in vivo and in vitro. Rats were pretreated with both malotilate (diisopropyl-1,3-dithiol-2-ylidenemalonate) and sodium phenobarbital (malotilate-treated rats) or only with sodium phenobarbital (control rats). The microsomes of malotilate-treated rats had significantly more cytochrome b5 than the controls, whereas the cytochrome P-450 content was not different between the two groups. At the end of 2-h exposure to 1% halothane in 14% oxygen, the ratio of CDE to CTE in arterial blood was significantly higher in malotilate-treated rats than in the controls. Under anaerobic conditions, the formation of CDE and the ratio of CDE to CTE were significantly greater in microsomal preparations of malotilate-treated rats than those of the controls. In a reconstituted system containing cytochrome P-450PB purified from rabbit liver, addition of cytochrome b5 to the system enhanced the formation of CDE and increased the ratio of CDE to CTE. These results suggested that cytochrome b5 enhances the formation ratio of CDE to CTE by stimulating the supply of a second electron to cytochrome P-450, which might reduce radical reactions in the reductive metabolism of halothane.  相似文献

The effect of substrate on the spin state of oxidized cytochrome P-450 in liver microsomes prepared from phenobarbital-pretreated rats has been examined. Formation of the substrate-induced Type I difference spectrum was found to correlate quantitatively with the disappearance of the ferric low-spin esr signal of cytochrome P-450. The dissociation constant of substrate for oxidized cytochrome P-450 obtained by optical methods was found to be the same as that obtained from esr methods provided that the same high microsomal protein concentration was used. However, a decrease in microsomal protein concentration leads to an apparent increase in the affinity of substrate for oxidized cytochrome P-450, indicating a dependence of lipophilic substrate dissociation constants on the membrane concentration.  相似文献

The destruction of cytochrome P-450 by allylisopropylacetamide (2-isopropyl-4-pentenamide) in microsomes from phenobarbital-pretreated rats has been shown to require oxygen, to be inhibited by NADP through inhibition of cytochrome P-450 reductase, and to be slightly stimulated by NADH. Glutathione (1 mm) does not inhibit destruction, but methyl 4,5-epoxy-2-isopropylpentanoate (5 mm), an analog of the epoxide of allylisopropylacetamide, does. The inactivation of cytochrome P-450 is both time dependent and saturable, although no more than approximately 40% of the microsomal enzyme appears to be normally destructible. However, mechanical perturbation of the microsomal suspension by rehomogenization initiates renewed destruction. Kinetic analysis shows that the destructive process is pseudo-first-order, with an apparent inactivation rate constant of 1.4 × 10?3 s?1 and an apparent Km of 1.14 mm. Approximately 230 molecules of substrate are turned over for each destructive event. These results, in conjunction with previously reported data, clearly and unambiguously establish that inactivation of cytochrome P-450 by allylisopropylacetamide is a suicidal process.  相似文献

The cytochrome P-450 (P-450sccII) and its reductase, NADPH-cytochrome reductase [EC 1.6.2.4], associated with conversion of progesterone to 4-androstene-3,17-dione, were extensively purified from pig testis microsomes. Higher lyase activity (turnover number of 15 mol of the product formed/min/mol of P-450) could be restored by mixing the P-450sccII, its reductase, pig liver cytochrome b5 and cytochrome b5-reductase [EC 1.6.2.2], and phospholipid in the presence of NADPH, NADH, and O2. Omission of either cytochrome b5 or NADH resulted in a significant loss of the lyase activity indicating actual participation of cytochrome b5 in this P-450-mediated steroidogenic system in the testis.  相似文献

Metabolism of the environmental pollutant and weak carcinogen benzo[c]-phenanthrene (B[c]Ph) by rat liver microsomes and by a purified and reconstituted cytochrome P-450 system is examined. B[c]Ph proved to be one of the best polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon substrates for rat liver microsomes. It is metabolized by microsomes from control rats and by rats treated with phenobarbital or 3-methylcholanthrene at 3.9, 4.2 and 7.8 nmol/nmol cytochrome P-450/min, respectively. Principal metabolites are dihydrodiols along with small amounts (less than 10%) of phenols. The K-region 5,6-dihydrodiol is the major metabolite and accounts for 77-89% of the total metabolites. The 3,4-dihydrodiol with a bay-region 1,2-double bond is formed in much smaller amounts and accounts for only 6-17% of the total metabolites, the highest percentage being formed by microsomes from control rats. Highly purified monooxygenase systems reconstituted with cytochrome P-450a, P-450b and P-450c and epoxide hydrolase form predominantly the 5,6-dihydrodiol (95-97% of total metabolites) and only a small percentage of the 3,4-dihydrodiol (3-5% of total metabolites). The 3,4-dihydrodiol is formed with higher enantiomeric purity by microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats (88%) than by microsomes from control rats (78%) or phenobarbital-treated rats (60%). In each case the (3R,4R)-enantiomer predominates. B[c]Ph 5,6-dihydrodiol formed by all three microsomal preparations is nearly racemic.  相似文献

Although indirect evidence has suggested that liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 can reductively dehalogenate several compounds to carbene metabolites, there has been no direct proof for the formation of these reactive species. We report in this paper that carbenes can be chemically trapped and identified as metabolites. For example, 1,1-dichloro-2,2,3,3-tetramethylcyclopropane was identified as a metabolite by gas chromatography mass spectrometry when carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) was incubated anaerobically with rat liver microsomes, NADPH and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene. The reaction required NADPH and was inhibited by carbon monoxide. These findings show that cytochrome P-450 in rat liver microsomes can reductively metabolize CCl4 to dichloromethyl carbene (:CCl2) which can be trapped with 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene to form 1,1-dichloro-2,2,3,3-tetramethylcyclopropane. A similar approach may be used for the identification of carbene metabolites of other compounds.  相似文献
