Abstract: | Cytochrome p450 (CYP) 4Fs metabolize leukotriene B(4) and other inflammatory mediators in the arachidonic acid cascade. Here we show that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment suppresses CYP4F4 and up-regulates CYP4F5 mRNA expression in rat liver whereas renal CYP4Fs are essentially unchanged. BaSO(4) treatment, in contrast, increases both hepatic and renal CYP4F expression levels. Thus, distinct regulatory mechanisms in CYP4F expression might operate under different inflammatory prompts. To examine hepatic totipotency, primary hepatocytes were treated with varying doses of LPS resulting in decrease in all the CYP4F isoforms. Treatment of hepatocytes with 5 ng/ml of interleukin-1beta mimics the in vivo effects of LPS on CYP4F expression. |
