CYP1B1, a member of the cytochrome p450 superfamily, is expressed constitutively in the steroidogenic tissues of mammals and is inducible by peptide hormones, cAMP and aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) ligands. The mechanism of induction of this cytochrome p450 is similar to that for CYP1A1, i.e. through the aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) signaling pathway. We have recently reported that CYP1B1, but not CYP1A1, is expressed in rat granulosa cells (GC) in the absence of any external stimulus. The induction of CYP1B1 mRNA in rat GC by 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) in vitro was followed by an increase in AHR and estrogen receptor (ER-beta) RNA levels. Estrous cycle-dependent expression of AHR, AHR-nuclear translocator (ARNT) and ER-mRNAs in the rat ovary was reported. We suggest that CYP1B1 may play a major role in the regulation of rat ovarian function/cycle but until now this has been unexplored experimentally. The present study was therefore aimed at examining the expression of CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and ER-mRNA in rat ovarian tissues throughout the estrous cycle to establish any correlation in the expressions of these mRNAs in rat ovary. Total RNA was extracted from the ovary and liver of cycling adult rats and the mRNAs were analyzed using relative RT-PCR with gene-specific primers for the target mRNA and for RPL 19 or S16 primers as an internal control. The results indicated that in the ovary, CYP1B1 mRNA increased significantly on the evening of proestrus and dramatically decreased on the morning of estrus, while ER-mRNA remained unaltered throughout the estrous cycle. CYP1A1 mRNA in the ovary and both CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 mRNAs in the liver were undetectable. That the sudden decrease of ovarian CYP1B1 mRNA on the morning of estrus was not an effect of the LH surge was verified in vitro using our short-term GC culture model. GC prepared from rats super-stimulated with equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) were cultured for 6 h with or without LH and TCDD. It was observed that both CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 mRNAs were induced by TCDD with no apparent effect of LH. It is suggested that the high level of CYP1B1 mRNA expression on the evening of proestrus in rat ovary might be involved in metabolism of estrogens to catecholestrogen (a known effect of CYP1B1), and that expression is unaffected in GC by LH. 相似文献

The effects of several protein kinase activators and protein phosphatase inhibitors on the phenobarbital (PB)-induced gene expression of CYP2B1 and CYP2B2 (CYP2B1/2B2) in adult rat hepatocytes were investigated. Insulin, epidermal growth factor, interleukin 6, cAMP, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, tumor necrosis factor alpha, vanadate, and okadaic acid were found to suppress the induction of CYP2B1/2B2 at mRNA and protein levels in hepatocytes. cAMP and vanadate completely suppressed the induction of CYP2B1/2B2 gene expression in both rat hepatocytes and liver. The addition of genistein to vanadate-treated hepatocytes partially recovered the induction of CYP2B1/2B1 gene expression by PB. These results of the present study demonstrate that phosphorylation/dephosphorylation steps are crucial for the induction of CYP2B1/2B2 gene expression by PB. 相似文献

2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) induces cytochrome P4501A (CYP1A) catalyzed ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) activity in chickens and other avian species. To investigate mechanisms underlying the effectiveness of EROD activity as a biomarker for exposure to dioxin-like compounds in avian models, we characterized inter-species differences in isoform-specific CYP1A mRNA expression, induction, and stability in chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus) and herring gulls (Larus argentatus). Exposure to 100 nM TCDD significantly increased CYP1A4 and CYP1A5 mRNA expression in chicken and herring gull embryo hepatocyte cultures. Chicken CYP1A4 and CYP1A5 were induced 61-fold and 25-fold respectively. The herring gull isoforms were induced 2.2- and 4.3-fold respectively. In both species, the isoform that was preferentially induced exhibited lower constitutive expression. Half-lives of chicken CYP1A4, chicken CYP1A5, and herring gull CYP1A5 mRNA ranged from 5.0 to 7.0 h in cultured hepatocytes. The half-life of herring gull CYP1A4 mRNA was 2.5 h. Our findings indicate that expression, induction, and stability of CYP1A4 and CYP1A5 mRNA are differentially regulated in chickens and herring gulls. In particular, CYP1A4 is preferentially induced in chickens, while CYP1A5 is preferentially induced in herring gulls. We propose that CYP1A5 mRNA expression may be a sensitive biomarker of exposure to dioxin-like compounds in some avian species. 相似文献

The mouse cytochrome P1450 (CYP1A1) gene is responsible for the metabolism of numerous carcinogens and toxic chemicals. Induction by the environmental contaminant tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) requires a functional aromatic hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor. We examined the 5'-flanking region of the CYP1A1 gene in mouse hepatoma Hepa-1 wild-type cells and a mutant line having a defect in chromatin binding of the TCDD-receptor complex. We identified two cis-acting elements (distal, -1071 to -901 region; proximal, -245 to -50 region) required for constitutive and TCDD-inducible CYP1A1 gene expression. Three classes of DNA-protein complexes binding to the distal element were identified: class I, found only in the presence of TCDD and a functional Ah receptor, that was heat labile and not competed against by simian virus 40 (SV40) early promoter DNA; class II, consisting of at least three constitutive complexes that were heat stable and bound to SV40 DNA; and class III, composed of at least three constitutive complexes that were thermolabile and were not competed against by SV40 DNA. Essential contacts for these proteins were centered at -993 to -990 for the class I complex, -987, -986, or both for the class II complexes, and -938 to -927 for the class III complexes. The proximal element was absolutely essential for both constitutive and TCDD-inducible CYP1A1 gene expression, and at least two constitutive complexes bound to this region. These data are consistent with the proximal element that binds proteins being necessary but not sufficient for inducible gene expression; interaction of these proteins with those at the distal element was found to be required for full CYP1A1 induction by TCDD. 相似文献

Constitutive expression of B7-1 on B cells uncovers autoimmunity toward the B cell compartment in the nonobese diabetic mouse 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The NOD mouse is an invaluable model for the study of autoimmune diabetes. Furthermore, although less appreciated, NOD mice are susceptible to other autoimmune diseases that can be differentially manifested by altering the balance of T cell costimulatory pathways. In this study, we show that constitutively expressing B7-1 on B cells (NOD-B7-1B-transgenic mice) resulted in reduced insulitis and completely protected NOD mice from developing diabetes. Furthermore, B7-1 expression led to a dramatic reduction of the B cell compartment due to a selective deletion of follicular B cells in the spleen, whereas marginal zone B cells were largely unaffected. B cell depletion was dependent on B cell specificity, mediated by CD8(+) T cells, and occurred exclusively in the autoimmune-prone NOD background. Our results suggest that B cell deletion was a consequence of the specific activation of autoreactive T cells directed at peripheral self Ags presented by maturing B cells that expressed B7-1 costimulatory molecules. This study underscores the importance of B7 costimulatory molecules in controlling the amplitude and target of autoimmunity in genetically prone individuals and has important implications in the use of costimulatory pathway antagonists in the treatment of human autoimmune diseases. 相似文献

The enzyme 25-hydroxyvitamin D 1-hydroxylase (CYP27B1) is the rate limiting enzyme in the two-step activation process of Vitamin D to its active form 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D) and is located in the mitochondrial fraction of the proximal tubular cells of the kidney. More recently CYP27B1 activity and expression have also been identified in a number of non-renal cells, which is suggestive of new, previously unidentified roles for Vitamin D in the human body. Although the regulation of CYP27B1 activity and expression has been a major focus of interest over the past decades, the exact molecular mechanism behind the regulation of CYP27B1 activity and expression and the role of the CYP27B1 promoter, herein, are still poorly understood. In this study, we created a transgenic mouse model that expresses the luciferase reporter gene under the control of the full-length, 1.5kb, human CYP27B1 promoter. This animal model allows us to study in vivo the tissue-specific, CYP27B1 promoter-controlled, regulation of the expression of the CYP27B1 gene. 相似文献

It has been established beyond doubt that, as well as the liver, the small intestine is an important site of first-pass metabolism of numerous drugs, food components and toxic xenobiotics. However, there is not much information available about age-dependent changes of intestinal biotransformation pathways. In the present paper, we evaluated the relationships between intestinal cytochrome P450 complex activity and the age of animals. The study was carried out on male Sprague–Dawley rats (n = 5) from 5 age series: 0.5-, 2-, 4-, 20-, and 28 months old. Animals at every age series were divided into 4 groups: control and three groups of rats treated with the CYP450 specific inducers: phenobarbital, β-naphtoflavone and dexamethasone, respectively. RNA was isolated from intestinal mucosa, and then standard RT-PCR was used for the analysis of CYP1A1, CYP2B1/2 and CYP3A1 mRNA expression. Additionally, the activities of NADPH-cytochrome P450 and NADH-cytochrome b5 reductases in the microsomal fraction were biochemically estimated. The constitutive intestinal CYP1A1 mRNA expression changes during maturation and aging. Inducibility of CYP1A1 gene was evident in intestinal mucosa at 2-, 4- and 20-month-old rats. A similar pattern of changes was observed for CYP2B1/2 isoforms. CYP3A1 mRNA expression was not detected in small intestine of 2-week-old rats. In matured rats, constitutive intestinal CYP3A1 expression was low, although after induction, significant increases in CYP3A1 mRNA amount were noted in aged individuals. Intestinal activity of both analyzed reductases was lowest in immature rats and highest in 28-month-old animals. In conclusion, the activity of cytochrome P450 complex in rat small intestine was not decreased by the aging processes, so the high rate of oxidative metabolic reactions in intestinal mucosa can be maintained till the advanced life stage. 相似文献

Dioxin (2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin) induces cleft palate and hydronephrosis in mice, when exposed in utero; these effects are mediated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor. The Cyp1a1, Cyp1a2, and Cyp1b1 genes are up-regulated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor. To elucidate their roles in dioxin-induced teratogenesis, we compared Cyp1a1(-/-), Cyp1a2(-/-), and Cyp1b1(-/-) knock-out mice with Cyp1(+/+) wild-type mice. Dioxin was administered (25 microg/kg, gavage) on gestational day 10, and embryos were examined on gestational day 18. The incidence of cleft palate and hydronephrosis was not significantly different in fetuses from Cyp1a1(-/-), Cyp1b1(-/-), and Cyp1(+/+) wild-type mice. To fetuses carried by Cyp1a2(-/-) dams, however, this dose of dioxin was lethal; this effect was absolutely dependent on the maternal Cyp1a2 genotype and independent of the embryonic Cyp1a2 genotype. Dioxin levels were highest in adipose tissue, mammary gland, and circulating blood of Cyp1a2(-/-) mothers, compared with that in the Cyp1(+/+) mothers, who showed highest dioxin levels in liver. More dioxin reached the embryos from Cyp1a2(-/-) dams, compared with that from Cyp1(+/+) dams. Fetuses from Cyp1a2(-/-) dams exhibited a approximately 6-fold increased sensitivity to cleft palate, hydronephrosis, and lethality. Using the humanized hCYP1A1_1A2 transgenic mouse (expressing the human CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 genes in the absence of mouse Cyp1a2 gene), the teratogenic effects of dioxin reverted to the wild-type phenotype. These data indicate that maternal mouse hepatic CYP1A2, by sequestering dioxin and thus altering the pharmacokinetics, protects the embryos from toxicity and birth defects; substitution of the human CYP1A2 trans-gene provides the same protection. In contrast, neither CYP1A1 nor CYP1B1 appears to play a role in dioxin-mediated teratogenesis. 相似文献

A molecular modeling study of CYP27B1 suggests that Arg458 of mouse CYP27B1 is involved in interaction with adrenodoxin (ADX). Thus, we generated CYP27B1 mutants R458K and R458Q and revealed their enzymatic properties. Substrate-induced difference spectra and K(m) values for 1alpha-hydroxylation of 25(OH)D3 indicate that the replacement of Arg458 with Lys or Gln does not affect substrate binding. However, these mutants showed remarkable decreases of both kcat values and the ratio of product formation to NADPH oxidation (coupling efficiency). A high K(m) value of R458Q for ADX concentration and a decrease of rate constant of the first electron transfer seem reasonable considering that the conversion from Arg to noncharged Gln abolishes salt-bridge formation with the acidic residue of ADX. On the other hand, R458K showed atypical kinetics for ADX concentration with Hill's constant of 2.0 and high catalytic activity at high ADX concentration by increase of coupling efficiency. These results suggest that conformational change of R458K by binding the two ADX molecules is essential for 1alpha-hydroxylation of 25(OH)D3. On the other hand, binding one ADX molecule is sufficient for the conformational change of the wild-type CYP27B1, judging from its Michaelis-Menten-type kinetics for ADX concentration with high coupling efficiency. These results suggest that ADX functions as an effector for the oxygen transfer reaction in addition to being an electron donor for CYP27B1. 相似文献

We compared pyridine and five of its metabolites in terms of (i) in vivo induction of CYP1A1 expression in the lung, kidney, and liver in the rat and (ii) in vitro binding to, and activation of, the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in cytosol from rat liver or Hepa1c1c7 cells. Following a single 2.5 mmol/kg ip dose of either pyridine, 2-hydroxpyridine, 3-hydroxypyridine, 4-hydroxypyridine, N-methylpyridinium, or pyridine N-oxide, CYP1A1 activity (ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase), protein level (as determined by Western blotting), and mRNA level (as determined by Northern blotting) were induced by pyridine, N-methylpyridinium, and pyridine N-oxide in the lung, kidney, and liver. The induction by N-methylpyridinium or pyridine N-oxide was comparable to or greater than that by pyridine in some tissues. 2-Hydroxypyridine and 3-hydroxypyridine caused tissue-specific induction or repression of CYP1A1, whereas 4-hydroxypyridine had no effect on the expression of the enzyme. Pyridine and its metabolites elicited weak activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor in a gel retardation assay in cytosol from rat liver but not Hepa 1c1c7 cells. However, the receptor activation did not parallel the in vivo CYP1A1 induction by the pyridine compounds, none of which inhibited binding of ?(3)H2,3,7, 8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin to AhR in a competitive assay in rat liver cytosol. The findings are consistent with a role of pyridine metabolites in CYP1A1 induction by pyridine but do not clearly identify the role of aryl hydrocarbon receptor in the induction mechanism. 相似文献

Evolutionarily conserved RNA-binding protein Musashi1 (Msi1) can regulate developmentally relevant genes. Here we report the generation and characterization of a mouse model that allows inducible Msi1 overexpression in a temporal and tissue-specific manner. We show that ubiquitous Msi1 induction in ∼5-wk-old mice delays overall growth, alters organ-to-body proportions, and causes premature death. Msi1-overexpressing mice had shortened intestines, diminished intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) proliferation, and decreased growth of small intestine villi and colon crypts. Although Lgr5-positive intestinal stem cell numbers remained constant in Msi1-overexpressing tissue, an observed reduction in Cdc20 expression provided a potential mechanism underlying the intestinal growth defects. We further demonstrated that Msi1 overexpression affects IEC differentiation in a region-specific manner, with ileum tissue being influenced the most. Ilea of mutant mice displayed increased expression of enterocyte markers, but reduced expression of the goblet cell marker Mucin2 and fewer Paneth cells. A higher hairy and enhancer of split 1:mouse atonal homolog 1 ratio in ilea from Msi1-overexpressing mice implicated Notch signaling in inducing enterocyte differentiation. Together, this work implicates Msi1 in mouse postnatal development of multiple organs, with Notch signaling alterations contributing to intestinal defects. This new mouse model will be a useful tool to further elucidate the role of Msi1 in other tissue settings. 相似文献

The human CYP4B1 protein was expressed in the liver of a transgenic mouse line under the control of the promoter of the human apolipoprotein E (apo E) gene. Hepatic microsomes of transgenic mice catalyzed omega-hydroxylation of lauric acid and also activated 2-aminofluorene (2-AF), which is a typical substrate for CYP4B1, to mutagenic compounds detected by an umu gene expression assay. These activities observed in transgenic mouse were efficiently inhibited by CYP4B1 antibody. However, such inhibition was not observed in control mice. This is the first report to indicate catalytic activities of human CYP4B1. For further characterization of human CYP4B1, a fusion protein of CYP4B1 and NADPH-P450 reductase was expressed in yeast cells. It was able to activate 2-AF and was also able to catalyze omega-hydroxylation of lauric acid. This transgenic mouse line and the recombinant fusion protein provide a useful tool to study human CYP4B1 and its relation to chemical toxicity and carcinogenesis. 相似文献
