Incorporation of heme to microsomal cytochrome P-450 in the absence of protein biosynthesis

Determination of the heme and protein portions of phenobarbital (PB)-inducible and 3-methylcholanthrene inducible forms of cytochrome P-450, P-450(PB-1), and P-450(MC-1), in the liver microsomes of drug-treated animals indicated the presence of 20-30% of apo-cytochrome P-450 in both cases. Inhibition of protein synthesis by cycloheximide injection to the rats did not significantly inhibit the incorporation of delta-amino[14C]levulinic acid (ALA) into the heme of P-450(PB-1) or P-450(MC-1) in the liver, indicating that the heme incorporation into microsomal cytochrome P-450 is not tightly coupled with the synthesis of the apo-cytochrome. When heme-labeled cytosol prepared from [14C]ALA-injected rats was incubated with non-radioactive microsomes in vitro, a significant amount of labeled heme was incorporated into microsomal P-450(PB-1), whereas the incorporation into P-450(MC-1) was much less. The in vitro transfer of heme from cytosol to microsome-bound cytochrome P-450 was stimulated by the addition of an NADPH-generating system to the incubation mixtures, and inhibited when the microsomes were solubilized with sodium cholate and Emulgen-913. Although the in vitro incubation of heme-labeled microsomes with non-radioactive cytosol resulted in some release of labeled heme from the microsomes, no reversible transfer of heme between cytochrome P-450 molecules bound to separate microsomal vesicles was detected when heme-labeled microsomes were incubated with non-radioactive microsomes in the presence and absence of cytosol.     

Purification of a new cytochrome P-450 from human liver microsomes

Using a classical methodology of purification consisting of three chromatographic steps (Octyl-Sepharose, DEAE-cellulose, CM-cellulose) we have purified a new cytochrome P-450 from human liver microsomes. It was called cytochrome P-450(9). It has been proven to be different from all precedingly purified human liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 isozymes by its immunological and electrophoretical properties. It does not cross-react with any rat liver cytochrome P-450 and anti-cytochrome P-450(9) does not recognize rat liver microsomes; thus this cytochrome P-450(9) is specific to humans. This cytochrome P-450 isozyme exists in low amounts in human liver microsomes and exhibits an important quantitative polymorphism. In reconstituted system, cytochrome P-450(9) is able to hydroxylate all substrates tested but is not specific of any; its exact role in xenobiotic metabolism in man remains to be elucidated.     

The phenobarbital-type induction of rat liver microsomal monooxygenases by perfluorodecalin

Induction of perfluorodecalin (PFD) of the liver microsomal system of metabolism of xenobiotics has been studied and compared with the inductions by phenobarbital (PB) and 3-methylcholanthrene (MC). It has been shown that PFD increases the content of cytochrome P-450, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity. Like PB, PFD induces the activities of benzphetamine-N-demethylase, aldrine-epoxidase, 16 beta-androstendion-hydroxylase. Using specific antibodies against cytochromes P-450b and P-450c (which are the main isoenzymes of cytochrome P-450 in the PB- and MC-microsomes respectively), an immunological identity of the cytochrome P-450 isoforms during PFD and PB induction has been found. According to the rocket immunoelectrophoresis the content of cytochrome P-450 in PFD-microsomes, which is immunologically indistinguishable from P-450b, was approximately 70% of the total cytochrome P-450. Two forms of cytochrome P-450 were isolated from the liver microsomes of PFD-induced rats and purified to homogeneity. A comparison of these forms with cytochromes P-450b and P-450e obtained from the PB-induced rat liver microsomes revealed their similarity in a number of properties, e.g., chromotographic behavior on DEAE-Sephacel column, molecular weight determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel, immunoreactivity, peptide mapping, catalytic activity. The data presented demonstrate that PFD induced in rat liver microsomes the cytochrome P-450 forms whose immunological properties and substrate specificity correspond to those of the PB-type cytochrome P-450. These findings suggest that PFD and PB, which differ in their chemical structure, induce in the rat liver microsomes identical forms of cytochrome P-450.     

Induction of cytochrome P-450 in rat liver microsomes by perfluorodecalin

Perfluorodecalin was incorporated into phospholipid liposomes and injected intraperitoneally in various dozes. The maximal cytochrome P-450 induction is reached 48 hours after perfluorodecalin injection. Cytochrome P-450 content increases 4 times after perfluorodecalin injection in dose of 0.6 ml/kg in homogenate, and 6 times after perfluorodecalin injection in a dose of 0.4 ml/kg in microsomes. Phenobarbital and perfluorodecalin induce several cytochrome P-450 isozymes and cause the appearance of a new isozyme with mass 56 kD absent in microsomes of intact CBA mice. Perfluorodecalin induction strongly increased the rate of NADPH-dependent aminopyrine nN-demethylation (6-7 times per mg of microsomal protein and 1.5 times per nmol cytochrome P-450). The rate of NADPH-dependent hydroxylation of aniline was not affected by perfluorodecalin induction.     

Mechanism of inhibiting the cytochrome P-450-dependent monooxygenase system in liver with fluorocarbons]

The inducer of the liver monooxygenase system perfluorodecalin added to microsomes as a submicron emulsion forms an enzyme-substrate complex with cytochrome P-450. The K(app) values for the perfluorodecalin binding to cytochrome P-450 in microsomes isolated from the livers of control and phenobarbital-treated rats are 5 x 10(-5) M and 2.3 x 10(-6) M, respectively. Perfluorodecalin competitively inhibits the binding of substrates to cytochrome P-450 and decreases the rates of monooxygenase reactions. Perfluorodecalin extrusion from the active center of cytochrome P-450 occurs when an excess of perfluorocarbons non-interacting with cytochrome P-450 is added to microsomes. There is a significant vagueness in the rates of various monooxygenase reactions because of simultaneous induction and inhibition of monooxygenase enzymes after perfluorodecalin administration to rats. The data obtained are consistent with the hypothesis that constitutive forms of cytochrome P-450 are primary receptors for xenobiotic-inducers of phenobarbital-type cytochrome P-450 isoforms.     

Comparison of cytochrome P-450 forms induced by phenobarbital and 1,4-bis[3,5-dichloropyridyloxy)]benzene in the mouse and rat liver

A form of cytochrome P-450 (P-450PB) with a molecular weight of 53.5-54.0 kD possessing a high benzphetamine-N-demethylase activity (100-120 nmol formaldehyde/min/nmol cytochrome) was isolated from liver microsomes of phenobarbital-induced C57Bl/6 mice. This cytochrome P-450 form is immunologically identical to its rat liver counterpart-P-450b (Mr = 52 kD) which is also characterized by a high rate of benzphetamine-N-demethylation. It was shown that 1.4-bis[2-(3.5-dichloropyridyloxy])benzene (TCPOBOP) induces in mouse liver the synthesis of the monoxygenase form whose substrate specificity and immunologic properties are identical to those of cytochromes P-450PB and P-450b. The immunochemically quantitated content of this form makes up to 20% of the total P-450 pool in liver microsomes of phenobarbital- or TCPOBOP-induced mice. Immunochemical analysis of microsomes with the use of antibodies to cytochromes P-450PB and P-450b revealed the presence on the electrophoregrams of phenobarbital-induced rat liver microsomes of two immunologically identical forms of cytochrome P-450, i.e., P-450b and P-450e (the latter had a low ability to benzphetamine N-demethylation). Liver microsomes of phenobarbital- or TCPOBP-induced mice gave only one precipitation band corresponding to cytochrome P-450PB.     

Substrate binding site of microsomal cytochrome P-450 directly faces membrane lipids

Cytochrome P-450, purified from liver microsomes of phenobarbital-treated rabbits, was incorporated into dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine liposomes. The binding of benzphetamine to the liposome-bound cytochrome P-450 was examined by measuring the benzphetamine-induced spectral change at various temperatures. The van't Hoff plot of the apparent spectral dissociation constant showed a distinct break at the temperature of phase transition of the synthetic lipid. On the other hand, no such break was observed for benzphetamine binding to microsomal bound cytochrome P-450. These results suggest that the substrate binding site of cytochrome P-450 is embedded in the apolar interior of phospholipid bilayer membranes.     

Detection of phenobarbital-induced cytochrome P-450 in rat hepatic microsomes using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay

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.     

Catalytic activity of isolated cytochromes P-450d and P-450c

Cytochrome P-450d was isolated from isosafrol-induced rat liver microsomes by affinity chromatography on 1.8-diaminooctyl-Sepharose 4B and chromatography on hydroxylapatite using a linear potassium phosphate gradient (45-250 mM). The enzyme has a molecular mass of 54 kDa, CO-maximum 448 nm is characterized by a high spin state; the rate of 4-aminobiphenyl hydroxylation is 54 nmol/min/nmol of cytochrome P-450d (37 degrees C), those, of 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylation and benz (a) pyrene oxidation are 1 nmol/min/nmol of cytochrome P-450d (22 degrees C) and 2 nmol/min/nmol of cytochrome P-450d (37 degrees C), respectively. The properties of cytochrome P-450d were compared to those of cytochrome P-450c isolated from 3-methylcholanthrene-induced rats. The yield of these cytochromes under the conditions used (10% P-450d from isosafrol-induced microsomes and 15% P-450c from 3-methylcholanthrene-induced microsomes) was relatively high. Antibodies to cytochromes P-450d and P-450c were obtained. Using rocket immunoelectrophoresis the percentage of these hemoprotein forms in 3-methylcholanthrene-induced (P-450d-20%, P-450c-70%) and isosafrol-induced rat liver microsomes (P-450d-50%, P-450c-15%) was determined.     

Relation between the 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase activity of the liver microsomal monooxygenase system and the level of methylcholanthrene-induced form of cytochrome P-450

Changes in the metabolic activity of 7-ethoxyresorufin in rat liver microsomes containing different amounts of cytochrome P-450 induced by 3-methylcholanthrene and other polycyclic hydrocarbons (P-450c) were studied. Using antibodies to cytochrome P-450c for the determination of the cytochrome P-450c content and its metabolic role, it was demonstrated that 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylation by the liver microsomal monooxygenase system is catalyzed exclusively by cytochrome P-450c. The rate of the substrate metabolism is correlated with the cytochrome P-450c content in microsomal membranes; the cytochrome P-450c activity does not depend on the cytochrome P-450c/NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase ratio. The experimental results suggest that the level of 7-ethoxyresorufin metabolism in liver microsomes can be regarded as a measure of the cytochrome P-450c content, whose function is associated with the stimulation of potential carcinogenic and toxic substances.     

Phenobarbital-type induction of cytochrome P-450 in liver microsomes by perfluorodecalin

Cytochrome P-450 induction in hepatic microsomes after injections of rats with a fluorocarbon emulsion containing perfluorodecalin was studied in comparison with phenobarbital and methylcholanthrene type inductions. It was shown that perfluorodecalin injection as well as the phenobarbital one cause an increase in the cytochrome P-450 content, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity, the rates of benzphetamine N-demethylation and aldrin epoxidation in the microsomes. Using the Ouchterlony double immunodiffusion test with antibodies against cytochrome P-450b, an immunological identity of cytochrome P-450 isoforms during perfluorodecalin and phenobarbital inductions was shown. Upon "rocket" immunoelectrophoresis the recovery of cytochrome P-450 which is immunologically indistinguishable from cytochrome P-450b was approximately 72% in perfluorodecalin-induced microsomes. The activity of benzphetamine demethylase and aldrin epoxidase was inhibited by antibodies against cytochrome P-450b. These results suggest that in rat hepatic microsomes perfluorodecalin induces the cytochrome P-450 isoform whose immunological properties and substrate specificity correspond to those of phenobarbital-type cytochrome P-450.     

Isolation and characterization of multiple forms of cytochrome P-450 from liver microsomes of 3-methylcholanthrene-induced Wistar rats

Chromatography on 1.8-diaminooctyl-Sepharose and DEAE-Sephacel resulted in 4 fractions of cytochrome P-450 from liver microsomes of 3-methylcholanthrene-induced Wistar rats. All the four fractions differed in terms of their absorption maxima in the CO-reduced state, Mr and catalytic activity. Only one cytochrome fraction (cytochrome P-450 C) possessed a high activity upon benz(a)pyrene hydroxylation. All cytochrome P-450 forms were characterized by a low rate of aminopyrine N-demethylation. Antibodies against cytochrome P-450 C (P-448) (anti-P-448) were raised. Cytochromes of fractions A, B1 and B2 in the Ouchterlony reaction of double immunodiffusion did not give precipitation bands with anti-P-448. Neither of the four cytochrome P-450 forms interacted with the antibodies raised against cytochrome P-450 isolated from liver microsomes of rats induced with phenobarbital. The procedure developed is applicable to the isolation of multiple forms of cytochrome P-450 from liver microsomes of 3-methylcholanthrene-induced rats. Using rocket immunoelectrophoresis, cytochrome P-450 C possessing a high (as compared to benz(a)pyrene metabolism) activity (18 nmol/min/nmol cytochrome) and a high (60-70%) content in 3-methylcholanthrene-induced rat liver microsomes was shown to give a relatively high yield.     

A form of rabbit liver cytochrome P-450 that catalyzes the 7 alpha-hydroxylation of cholesterol

A form of cytochrome P-450 which comigrates with cytochrome P-450LM4 (molecular weight, 55 000) on SDS-polyacrylamide gel was purified from liver microsomes of cholestyramine-treated rabbits. This form of cytochrome P-450 catalyzed the 7 alpha-hydroxylation of cholesterol with an activity of 37.5 pmol/min per nmol cytochrome P-450 in the reconstituted enzyme system containing cytochrome P-450 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase. The substrate specificity of this form of cytochrome P-450 was compared with cytochrome P-450LM4 isolated from phenobarbital- and beta-naphthoflavone-treated rabbit liver microsomes. The latter two isoenzymes do not catalyze 7 alpha-hydroxylation of cholesterol, but are more active in O-deethylation of 7-ethoxycoumarin and p-nitrophenetole. Ouchterlony double diffusion revealed cross-reactivity between anti-P-450LM4 (phenobarbital) IgG and cytochrome P-450 isolated from cholestyramine- or beta-naphthoflavone-treated rabbit liver microsomes. A two-dimensional iodinated tryptic peptide fingerprint indicated only minor structural differences among these three cytochrome P-450LM4 preparations.     

Preparation and characterization of monoclonal antibodies against a form of hamster liver cytochrome P-450 highly specific to aflatoxin B1

Monoclonal antibodies were prepared against a form of cytochrome P-450 (designated as cytochrome P-450-I) purified from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated hamster livers which is highly specific to aflatoxin B1. The cytochrome P-450-I was detected in ELISA and Western blots in liver microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated hamsters and also from non-treated and phenobarbital-treated hamsters in smaller amounts. However, none of the liver microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rat, rabbit, guinea pig and Suncus murinus contained the cytochrome P-450-I. These results suggest that cytochrome P-450-I is specific to hamster and is induced mainly by 3-methylcholanthrene.     

Interaction between NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase and hepatic microsomes.

Solubilized NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase has been purified from liver microsomes of phenobarbital-treated rats. When added to microsomes, the reductase enhances the monoxygenase, such as aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase, ethoxycoumarin O-dealkylase, and benzphetamine N-demethylase, activities. The enhancement can be observed with microsomes prepared from phenobarbital- or 3-methylcholanthrene-treated, or non-treated rats. The added reductase is believed to be incorporated into the microsomal membrane, and the rate of the incorporation can be assayed by measuring the enhancement in ethoxycoumarin dealkylase activity. It requires a 30 min incubation at 37 degrees C for maximal incorporation and the process is much slower at lower temperatures. The temperature affects the rate but not the extent of the incorporation. After the incorporation, the enriched microsomes can be separated from the unbound reductase by gel filtration with a Sepharose 4B column. The relationship among the reductase added, reductase bound and the enhancement in hydroxylase activity has been examined. The relationship between the reductase level and the aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity has also been studied with trypsin-treated microsomes. The trypsin treatment removes the reductase from the microsomes, and the decrease in reductase activity is accompanied by a parallel decrease in aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity. When purified reductase is added, the treated microsomes are able to gain aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity to a level comparable to that which can be obtained with normal microsomes. The present study demonstrates that purified NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase can be incorporated into the microsomal membrane and the incorporated reductase can interact with the cytochrome P-450 molecules in the membrane, possibly in the same mode as the endogenous reductase molecules. The result is consistent with a non-rigid model for the organization of cytochrome P-450 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase in the microsomal membrane.     

Collagenolytic activity of rabbit V2-carcinoma growing at multiple sites.

Interaction between lanosterol and cytochrome P-450 purified from microsomes of anaerobically-grown Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied. Lanosterol (4,4,14α-trimethyl-5α-cholesta-8,24-dien-3β-ol) stimulated the oxidation of NADPH by molecular oxygen in the presence of cytochrome P-450 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase both purified from S. cerevisiae microsomes. Lanosterol stimulated the reduction of cytochrome P-450 by NADPH with the cytochrome P-450 reductase, and induced Type I spectral change of cytochrome P-450. These observations suggest that lanosterol interacts to the substrate region of cytochrome P-450 of S. cerevisiae. Based on these facts, possible role of cytochrome P-450 in lanosterol metabolism in yeast cell is discussed.     

Changes in the ratio of microsomal electron carriers in reconstituted microsomal membranes

The reconstitution of microsomal membrane monooxygenase system with variable contents of the hydroxylating chain enzymatic components was carried out. It was found that during self-assembly of microsomal membranes solubilized with 4% sodium cholate and gel filtration through Sephadex LH-20 in the presence of isolated microsomal enzymes, two forms of cytochrome P-450, i. e. phenobarbital- and 3-methylcholantrene-induced ones, and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, the exogenous enzymes are incorporated into the microsomal membrane matrices of control and methyl-cholantrene-treated animals. In the membranes reconstituted from the microsomes of the methylcholantrene-induced animals the catalytic activity of cytochrome P-448 in the metabolism of benz(a)pyrene at varying cytochrome P-448 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase contents were investigated.     

Induction of the phenobarbital form of cytochrome P-450 by chemically unrelated compounds

The induction of the phenobarbital form of cytochrome P-450 by xenobiotics (phenobarbital, PB, hexachlorobenzene, HCB; hexachlorocyclohexane. HCCH, and aroclor 1016, Ar) was studied. It was demonstrated that administration of these compounds to animals is accompanied by an increase in the total cytochrome P-450, NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, benzphetamine-N-demethylase and aldrin-epoxidase activities. Using monospecific antibodies against the cytochrome P-450 form isolated from PB-induced microsomes (PB-cytochrome P-450), a double immunodiffusion test revealed immunological identity of cytochrome P-450 forms induced by phenobarbital and other xenobiotics. The content of this form determined by rocket immunoelectrophoresis increased markedly and made up to 20-40% of the total cytochrome P-450 content. Antibodies against PB-cytochrome P-450 inhibited by 50-70% the benzphetamine-N-demethylase and aldrin-epoxidase activities, whereas the antibodies to methylcholanthrene-induced cytochrome P-450 were fairly ineffective. It was concluded that the chemically unrelated compounds induce in liver microsomes a cytochrome P-450 form, whose immunological properties and substrate specificity are close to the PB-form of cytochrome P-450.     

Drug-induction decreases the mobility of cytochrome P-450 in rat liver microsomes: protein rotation study

Effect of drug-induction on the rotation of cytochrome P-450 and on lipid fluidity in rat liver microsomes was examined. Rotational diffusion of cytochrome P-450 was examined by observing the decay of absorption anisotropy, r(t), after photolysis of the heme.CO complex by a vertically polarized laser flash. Analysis of r(t) was based on a "rotation-about-membrane normal" model. Microsomal lipid fluidity was measured by observing fluorescence anisotropy of DPH incorporated in the lipid bilayer. The absorption anisotropy decayed within 2 ms to a time-independent value. Rotational diffusion of cytochrome P-450 was dependent on the drug-induction with PB, MC, and PCB when compared with non-induced CON-microsomes. The observed values for the normalized time-independent anisotropy r(infinity)/r(0) are r(infinity)/r(0) = 0.41 (CON-microsomes), 0.54 (PB-microsomes), 0.52 (MC-microsomes), and 0.57 (PCB-microsomes). The average rotational relaxation time phi = 580-690 microseconds was almost unchanged over all microsomes presently examined. A significantly high value of r(infinity)/r(0) = 0.41-0.57 implies the co-existence of mobile and immobile populations of cytochrome P-450. Based on the assumption that the heme tilts about 55 degrees from the membrane plane for all species of P-450s besides P-450PB, 59% (CON-microsomes), 46% (PB-microsomes), 48% (MC-microsomes), and 43% (PCB-microsomes), respectively, of the cytochrome P-450 in microsomes is calculated to be mobile. Upon drug-induction the microsomal membrane was fluidized to some extent as judged by the steady-state fluorescence anisotropy of 0.156 for CON-microsomes and 0.139-0.148 for drug-induced microsomes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Regulation of three forms of cytochrome P-450 and epoxide hydrolase in rat liver microsomes. Effects of age, sex, and induction

A procedure for the preparation of monospecific antibody directed against rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-45-a is described. This antibody, together with monospecific antibodies to cytochromes P-450b and P-450c, has been used to show that these three forms of cytochrome P-450 are distinct and share no common antigenic determinants. These antibodies (a) give single immunoprecipitin bands with detergent-solubilized microsomes; (b) do not cross-react with the purified heterologous antigens in Ouchterlony double diffusion analyses; (c) have no effect on catalytic activity of the heterologous antigens but completely inhibit the enzymatic activity of the homologous antigens; and (d) remove only the homologous antigen from detergent-solubilized microsomes when covalently bound to a solid support. With radial immunodiffusion assay, we have quantitated these three forms of cytochrome P-450 in liver microsomes after treatment of rats with seven different inducers of cytochrome P-450. The levels of these cytochrome P-450 isozymes vary independently and are also regulated by the age and sex of the animal. The antibodies have also been used to assess the contribution of cytochromes P-450a, P-450b, and P-450c in the metabolism of xenobiotics by rat liver microsomes. A large proportion of benzo(a)pyrene metabolism and testosterone 16 alpha-hydroxylation in microsomes from untreated rats is not catalyzed by cytochromes P-450a, P-450b, and P-450c. Epoxide hydrolase, another microsomal enzyme involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics, was also quantitated by radial immunodiffusion after prior treatment of rats with microsomal enzyme inducers. The inductions of epoxide hydrolase varies independently of the induction of cytochromes P-450a, P-450b, and P-450c.
