Induction of cytochrome P-450 in congenic C57BL/6J mice by isosafrole: lack of correlation with the Ah locus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Isosafrole induction of cytochrome P-450 was compared in congenic strains of C57BL/6J mice, one of which expresses normal levels of the Ah receptor [B6(Ahb)], and another that does not contain a measurable receptor concentration [B6(Ahd)]. Using sucrose gradient analysis of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) binding, an Ah receptor concentration of 69.1 +/- 3.8 fmol/mg protein was measured in the hepatic cytosol from B6(Ahb) mice, while no receptor could be detected in the cytosol from B6(Ahd) mice. Isosafrole treatment (75 mg/kg X 3 days) increased the total hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450 content to the same extent in the two congenic strains. The level of microsomal monooxygenase induction in the isosafrole-treated B6(Ahd) mice was greater than that of B6(Ahb) mice for ethylmorphine N-demethylase and isosafrole metabolite-complex formation, the latter a measure of cytochrome P2-450. In the case of 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase only the isosafrole-treated B6(Ahd) mice had elevated microsomal activity. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) also revealed a similar induction pattern for the two congenic strains, following isosafrole treatment. Thus, the isosafrole treated B6(Ahd) mice produced an equivalent or slightly larger induction of cytochrome P-450 than the B6(Ahb) mice, suggesting that there is no direct role for the Ah receptor in the regulation of these cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase activities by isosafrole. 相似文献

The effect of various microsomal enzyme inducers such as DDT, benzpyrene, 3-MC, TCDD or phenobarbital on liver microsomal mixed-function oxidases and cytochrome P450 content in mice genetically responsive (C57B1/6J) and resistant (DBA/2J) to induction of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) was studied. 3-MC and benzpyrene administration stimulated liver AHH activity 6–8 fold in C57B1/6J mice but had no effect in DBA/2J mice. However, intraperitoneal administration of TCDD increased AHH activity in both C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mice. This increase was accompanied by shift in the peak of cytochrome P450 difference spectrum from 450 to 448 nm. It is concluded that genetic resistance to AHH stimulation in DBA/2J mice is influenced by the type of inducer used. 相似文献

The role of the Ah locus in hexachlorobenzene (HCB)-induced porphyria and the possible involvement of P-450 cytochromes P(1)450 and P(3)450 in the pathogenesis of this disease were investigated in two congenic strains of C57BL/6J mice that differ only at this locus. Female B6-Ahb mice (Ah receptor: approximately 30-70 fmol/mg of cytosolic protein) and B6-Ahd mice (Ah receptor: undetectable) were pretreated with iron (500 mg/kg) and then fed a diet containing 0 or 200 p.p.m. of HCB for up to 17 weeks. Mice from the two strains consumed similar amounts of HCB. Urinary excretion of porphyrins was increased after 7 weeks of HCB treatment in B6-Ahb mice, and after 15 weeks was over 200 times greater than that of mice given iron only. In B6-Ahd mice, porphyrin excretion did not begin to increase until after 13 weeks, and after 15 weeks was only six times greater than that of controls. Similar differences were seen in the 15-week hepatic porphyrin concentrations (B6-Ahb: 1110 +/- 393; B6-Ahd: 17.6 +/- 14.5; controls: approximately 0.20 nmol/g). Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.37) activity was diminished by 70 and 20% in B6-Ahb B6-Ahd mice respectively after 15 weeks of treatment with HCB. Cytochromes P(1)450 and P(3)450 were measured in hepatic microsomes (microsomal fractions) by radioimmunoassay and immunoblotting, using antisera raised against the orthologous rat isoenzymes P450c and P450d. HCB induced small amounts of a protein recognized by anti-P450c (P(1)450) in B6-Ahd mice, but not in B6-Ahd mice. Relatively large amounts of a protein recognized by anti-P450d (P(3)450) were induced in both strains, but to a somewhat greater extent in the B6-Ahb mice. The hepatic accumulation of HCB at 15 weeks was greater in B6-Ahb than in B6-Ahd mice, in association with elevated hepatic lipid levels in the former strain. The results of this experiment indicate that the Ah locus influences the susceptibility of C57BL/6J mice to HCB-induced porphyria and are consistent with the suggestion that the sustained induction of P(3)450 and/or P(1)450 may be a causative factor in the development of this disease. 相似文献

Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) produces hepatic porphyria and induces the hepatic cytochrome P450 isozymes P450c (P450IA1) and P450d (P450IA2) in rodents. These and other effects of HCB resemble those of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), which acts via its binding to the aromatic hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor. We therefore examined the ability of HCB to interact with this receptor in vitro and in vivo. HCB, at concentrations of 1 microM or higher, inhibited the specific binding of [3H]TCDD (0.3 nM) to the Ah receptor in vitro, whereas the solubility of [3H]TCDD was affected only at 100 microM HCB. The inhibition was competitive, with a KI of approximately 2.1 microM. In rats fed a diet containing 3000 ppm HCB for varying times (4 h to 7 days), the specific binding of [3H]TCDD in hepatic cytosol was reduced by up to 40%, as observed previously for known Ah receptor agonists. The decrease in [3H]TCDD specific binding in cytosol of HCB-treated rats was due principally to a decrease in the number of binding sites for [3H]TCDD rather than competition from residual HCB. As shown by immunoblotting and radioimmunoassay, HCB induced the cytochrome P450 isozymes P450c and P450d, which are regulated by the Ah receptor, as well as the phenobarbital-inducible isozymes P450b and P450e. Together these results indicate that HCB is a weak agonist for the Ah receptor, and suggest that some of its effects may be mediated by its interaction with this gene-regulatory protein. 相似文献

Characterization of the Ah receptor mediating aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase induction in the human liver cell line Hep G2 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

The Ah receptor, a soluble cytoplasmic receptor that regulates induction of cytochrome P450IA1 and mediates toxic effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), was detected and characterized in the continuous human liver cell line Hep G2. The mean concentration of specific binding sites for TCDD was 112 +/- 26 (SEM) fmol/mg cytosol protein as determined in eight separate cytosol preparations in the presence of sodium molybdate. This is equivalent to 14,000 binding sites per cell, approximately 40% of the sites per cell found in the mouse hepatoma line Hepa-1. The cytosolic Ah receptor from Hep G2 cells sedimented at 9 S and was specific for those halogenated and nonhalogenated aromatic compounds known to be agonists for the Ah receptor in rodent tissues and cells. Specific binding in the 9 S region was detected with both [3H]TCDD and 3-[3H]methylcholanthrene. 3-[3H]Methylcholanthrene did not bind to any component besides that at approximately 9 S. Phenobarbital, dexamethasone, and estradiol did not compete with [3H]TCDD for binding to the Hep G2 Ah receptor. Specific binding of [3H]triamcinolone acetonide to glucocorticoid receptor could also be demonstrated in Hep G2 cytosol. The apparent equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) for binding of [3H]TCDD to Hep G2 Ah receptor was 9 nM by Woolf plot analysis, about an order of magnitude weaker than the affinity of [3H]TCDD for the mouse Hepa-1 Ah receptor or for the C57BL/6 murine hepatic Ah receptor. [3H]TCDD.Ah receptor complex, which was extracted from nuclei of Hep G2 cells incubated with [3H]TCDD at 37 degrees C in culture, sedimented at approximately 6 S under conditions of high ionic strength. Aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) activity was significantly induced after 24 h of incubation with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons: the EC50 for AHH induction was 5.3 microM for benz(a)anthracene and 1.3 microM for 3-methylcholanthrene. Modification of the preparative technique for cell cytosol, especially inclusion of 20 mM sodium molybdate in homogenizing and other buffers, was necessary to detect cytosolic Hep G2 Ah receptor. Hep G2 cells appear to conserve drug-metabolizing activity associated with cytochrome P450IA1 as well as the receptor mechanism which regulates its induction. 相似文献

Induction of cytochrome P-450 isozymes by hexachlorobenzene in rats and aromatic hydrocarbon (Ah)-responsive mice 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) differs markedly from other chlorinated benzenes (CBs) as an inducer of cytochrome P-450 (P-450) isozymes as determined by radioimmunoassay and immunoblotting. At greater than 99% pure, HCB induced both the phenobarbital-inducible forms, cytochromes P-450b + e (70 chi), and the 3-methylcholanthrene-inducible forms, cytochromes P-450c (58 chi) and P-450d (8 chi), in rat liver microsomes. The concentration of P-450d was considerably greater than that of P-450c in HCB-induced rat liver. In contrast to HCB, all lower chlorinated benzenes tested were PB-type inducers. Hexachlorobenzene increased the amounts of translatable messenger RNAs (mRNAs) for P-450b, P-450c, and P-450d in rat liver polysomes, suggesting that it increases the synthesis of these proteins. Evidence that HCB interacted with the putative Ah receptor for 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) was equivocal. Western blots of liver microsomes from Ah-responsive C57BL/6J (B6) and nonresponsive DBA/2J (D2) mice demonstrated that HCB produced a large increase in P3-450 and a very small increase in P1-450 in the responsive strain. The increase in P1-450 was not observed after HCB administration to nonresponsive mice, but a small increase in P3-450 was noted. These findings suggested that HCB may act through the Ah receptor. However, HCB was at best a very weak competitor for specific binding of [3H]-TCDD to the putative receptor in rat or mouse hepatic cytosol in vitro, producing decreases in binding of [3H]-TCDD only at very high concentrations (10(-6) to 10(-5) M). 相似文献

In many species systemic toxicity of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is manifested by a generalized wasting syndrome accompanied by a variety of specific organ changes including atrophy of the thymus and spleen. TCDD toxicity in most tissues is thought to be mediated by the Ah receptor. Although the spleen is a prime target for TCDD toxicity, the possible presence of Ah receptor in the spleen has not previously been investigated. Specific binding of [3H]TCDD to Ah receptor in spleen cytosols was assessed by velocity sedimentation on sucrose gradients. Ah receptor was detected in spleen cytosols from adult Rhesus monkeys (mean +/- SEM, 36 +/- 8 fmol/mg cytosol protein), fetal Rhesus monkeys (9 +/- 6), Sprague-Dawley rats (20 +/- 5), C57BL/6J mice (18 +/- 2), New Zealand white rabbits (19 +/- 2), and Hartley guinea pigs (15 +/- 2). Ah receptor was not detectable in spleen cytosol from genetically "nonresponsive" DBA/2J mice or from Golden Syrian hamsters, a species resistant to toxicity of TCDD. Molecular properties of Ah receptor from spleen were similar to those of the receptor from liver of the same species. The high Ah receptor content in spleen cytosols from those species that are most susceptible to TCDD toxicity is consistent with the view that the Ah receptor mediates TCDD toxicity in spleen as well as in other tissues. 相似文献

C3H/1OT1/2 clone 8 mouse fibroblasts (C3H/1OT1/2 cells) exhibit induction of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (cytochrome P1-450) when exposed in culture to benzo(a)pyrene, benz(a)anthracene or 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), but do not display the induction response when treated with 3-methylcholanthrene (MCA), the classical inducer of cytochrome P1-450. Induction of cytochrome P1-450 is regulated by the Ah receptor which initially binds inducing chemicals in the cytoplasm, after which the inducer x receptor complex translocates into the nucleus. Cytosolic and nuclear forms of the Ah receptor can be detected in C3H/1OT1/2 cells using [3H]TCDD as the radioligand in culture, but specific Ah receptor binding is not detectable within C3H/1OT1/2 cells incubated with [3H]MCA. In contrast, in Hepa-1c1 cells, which exhibit cytochrome P1-450 induction when treated with MCA, cytosolic and nuclear Ah receptor can be detected by incubation of the cells either with [3H]MCA or with [3H]TCDD. Nonradioactive MCA is able to compete with [3H]TCDD for Ah receptor sites in C3H/1OT1/2 cells, but the relative potency of MCA as a competitor is lower within C3H/1OT1/2 cells than in C3H/1OT1/2 cytosol during extracellular incubation. Specific binding of [3H]MCA to Ah receptor can be detected by incubation of [3H]MCA with C3H/1OT1/2 cytosol outside the cell. The selective loss of response to MCA as a cytochrome P1-450 inducer (while retaining response to other inducers) appears to be due to defective interaction of MCA with the Ah receptor within the intracellular environment. The specific molecular alteration which makes the MCA x receptor complex ineffective within C3H/1OT1/2 cells is unknown. Some fibroblast lines other than C3H/1OT1/2 also selectively fail to respond to MCA; thus, this variation in Ah receptor function may not be due to a mutational change in the Ah regulatory gene which codes for the Ah receptor. 相似文献

It was recently reported that suppression of murine bone marrow hematopoiesis is a very sensitive indicator for 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) toxicity (1). We report here that a structural analog of TCDD, 1-NH2-3,7,8-trichlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (NH2-TriCDD), is a specific and effective antagonist for TCDD-induced myelotoxicity and enzyme induction. When administered to mice or added directly into culture at a 100-fold excess, relative to TCDD, NH2-TriCDD completely abrogated the ability of TCDD to inhibit granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (CFU-C) formation, an indicator of hematopoiesis. Further, NH2-TriCDD inhibited TCDD-induced activation of cytochrome P1-450 monooxygenase activity. Studies designed to measure specific binding of TCDD to the cytosolic Ah receptor indicated that NH2-TriCDD effectively inhibited binding of TCDD to the receptor by acting as a competitive antagonist (Ki = 0.72 nM). 相似文献

Isosafrole-induced cytochrome P2-450 in DBA/2N mouse liver. Characterization and genetic control of induction 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mouse "cytochrome P2-450" is defined as that form of isosafrole-induced P-450 in DBA/2N liver most specifically correlated with isosafrole metabolism. Isosafrole pretreatment does not induce aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity ("cytochrome P1-450") in C57BL/6N or DBA/2N mice, induces acetanilide 4-hydroxylase activity ("cytochrome P3-450") more than 3-fold in C57BL/6N but not in DBA/2N mice, and induces isosafrole metabolite formation more than 3-fold in both C57BL/6N and DBA/2N mice. P2-450 was, therefore, purified from isosafrole-treated DBA/2N liver microsomes having negligible amounts of contaminating P1-450 and P3-450. The apparent molecular weight of P2-450 is 55,000, and the protein appears homogeneous on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. The Soret peak of the reduced purified cytochrome X CO complex is 448 nm. Purified P2-450, reconstituted in vitro, metabolizes acetanilide poorly and benzo[a]pyrene hardly at all. Anti-(P2-450) inhibits (90 to 100%) liver microsomal isosafrole metabolite formation, yet has no effect on aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase, acetanilide 4-hydroxylase, biphenyl 2- or 4-hydroxylase, or 7-ethoxycoumarin O-de-ethylase activities. 3-Methylcholanthrene induces anti-(P2-450)-precipitable protein about 12-fold in C57BL/6N and 2-fold in DBA/2N liver; 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (10 micrograms/kg), about 12-fold in both C57BL/6N and DBA/2N liver; isosafrole, more than 3-fold in both C57BL/6N and DBA/2N. Benzo[a]anthracene at maximal doses induces anti-(P2-450)-precipitable protein in C57BL/6N liver no more than 2-fold, yet is known to be a highly potent inducer of P1-450 mRNA in C57BL/6N liver. The sensitivity of the P2-450 induction process to isosafrole is inherited as an autosomal additive trait; studies of offspring from the C57BL/6N(DBA/N)F1 X DBA/2N backcross confirm involvement of the Ah locus or s closely segregating gene. In contrast, among crosses between C57BL/6N and DBA/2N, sensitivity of the P1-450 and P3-450 induction process to 3-methylcholanthrene or 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. These data suggest that, although P1-450, P2-450, and P3-450 proteins are controlled by the Ah locus, either a P-450 protein polymorphism exists between C57BL/6N and DBA/2N mice or subtle differences may exist in the interaction of various inducers with Ah receptor. 相似文献

The lack of aryl hydrocarbon (benzo[a]pyrene) hydroxylase (AHH) (EC 1.14.14.1) induction by 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) in a clone of rat hepatoma (HTC cl-1) cells is not caused by the lack of nuclear Ah receptor or by a deficiency in the activity of NADPH-cytochrome c (P-450) reductase. Treatment of HTC cl-1 cell line with TCDD for 18 h in culture resulted in a reproducible 500-600% increase in reductase activity without concomitant expression in AHH activity. These data suggests that TCDD induces cytochrome c reductase activity and that the lack of inducible AHH activity in rat hepatoma cells could reflect a defect in the structural gene (s) encoding for cytochrome P1-450, or an Ah receptor with a faulty DNA binding domain. 相似文献

Omeprazole is a benzimidazole derivative which induces both P450 1A1 and 1A2 in human liver in vitro and in vivo. Northern blot analysis of polyA RNA prepared from primary cultures of human hepatocytes indicates that both 1A1 and 1A2 messages are induced by beta-naphthoflavone and omeprazole. Co-treatment of cells with these inducers and with actinomycin D or cycloheximide results in no accumulation of both mRNA or superinduction of 1A1 mRNA, respectively. 9S enriched fraction of cytosol was prepared either from human hepatocytes in culture or from human liver tissue and analyzed by sucrose density gradient sedimentation for its capacity to bind 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), omeprazole or omeprazole sulfone (a metabolite of omeprazole in man). Whereas 2 microM TCDD displaced almost totally [3H]TCDD from the Ah receptor, both omeprazole and omeprazole sulfone did not, even at 5000-fold molar excess. In addition, when [14C] omeprazole was incubated with 9S enriched fraction of human liver or hepatocyte cytosol, no interaction could be detected in sucrose density gradient. These experiments suggest that omeprazole is not a ligand for the human liver Ah receptor. 相似文献

Rat hepatic cytosol was treated with alkaline phosphatase in order to determine if dephosphorylation altered the ability of Ah receptor to bind 2,3,7,8-[3H]tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Glucocorticoid receptor was studied for comparison. As previously had been shown in other laboratories, treatment of cytosol with purified alkaline phosphatase dramatically reduced the subsequent ability of glucocorticoid receptor to bind hormone. However, alkaline phosphatase had no effect on the ability of Ah receptor to bind [3H]TCDD. If either glucocorticoid receptor or Ah receptor was occupied by its ligand prior to exposure to alkaline phosphatase there was no loss in ligand binding capacity. Crude alkaline phosphatase (containing some protease activity) substantially reduced the ability of glucocorticoid receptor to bind hormone and shifted the sedimentation position of the glucocorticoid receptor from approximately 8 S to approximately 2 S. Crude alkaline phosphatase did not reduce the ability of Ah receptor to bind [3H]TCDD and did not alter sedimentation of the 9 S [3H]TCDD. Ah receptor complex. Although the Ah receptor appears to be a member of the steroid receptor superfamily, the lack of effect of alkaline phosphatase on Ah receptor (compared to the sensitivity of glucocorticoid receptor) highlights another significant difference in molecular characteristics between the Ah receptor and the receptors for steroid hormones. 相似文献

Characterization of an inducible aryl hydrocarbon receptor-like protein in rat liver. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The individual pretreatment of Sprague-Dawley rats with either 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) or 2,2',4,4',5,5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (HCB) has been previously shown to result in the "induction" of [3H]TCDD specific binding activity in hepatic tissue. In the present work, the coadministration of TCDD and HCB increased the concentration of hepatic proteins capable of binding [3H]TCDD specifically by at least 2-3-fold. This increase was shown not to be the result of activation, by HCB, of a form of the receptor having low affinity toward [3H]TCDD into a form with high affinity. Kinetic analysis of the time course of binding of [3H]TCDD to induced cytosol was consistent with the presence of an "inducible" binding protein in addition to the "constitutive" aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor present in cytosol from untreated animals. The liganded ([3H]TCDD) form of the inducible binding component lost its ligand much faster than the liganded form of the constitutive Ah receptor at 37 degrees C; apparent first order rate constants for loss of [3H]TCDD were 0.55 min-1 and less than 0.0024 min-1, respectively. Conversely, the unliganded form of the induced binding component was slightly more stable (approximately 2-fold) toward thermal inactivation than the unbound constitutive Ah receptor. The [3H]TCDD-bound protein(s) in uninduced and induced cytosols behaved identically in a sucrose gradient; 8.7-8.9 S in the absence of salt, shifted to 5.5 S by 0.4 M KCl. They were also indistinguishable by gel permeation chromatography, and by photoaffinity labeling their TCDD-binding subunits, approximate molecular weights 105,000. These results show the hepatic TCDD-binding protein(s) induced upon pretreatment of Sprague-Dawley rats with TCDD/HCB to be kinetically distinct from the Ah receptor, but structurally very similar. 相似文献
