In this study, we provided molecular evidences that interleukin-6 (IL-6) contributed to the decreased capacity of oxidative biotransformation in human liver by suppressing the expression of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). After human hepatocytes were treated with IL-6, differentially expressed in chondrocytes 1 (DEC1) expression rapidly increased, and subsequently, the CYP3A4 expression decreased continuously. Furthermore, the repression of CYP3A4 by IL-6 occurred after the increase of DEC1 in primary human hepatocytes. In HepG2 cells, knockdown of DEC1 increased the CYP3A4 expression and its enzymatic activity. In addition, it partially abolished the decreased CYP3A4 expression as well as its enzymatic activity induced by IL-6. Consistent with this, overexpression of DEC1 markedly reduced the CYP3A4 promoter activity and the CYP3A4 expression as well as its enzymatic activity. Using sequential truncation and site directed mutagenesis of CYP3A4 proximal promoter with DEC1 construct, we showed that DEC1 specifically bound to CCCTGC sequence in the proximal promoter of CYP3A4, which was validated by EMSA and ChIP assay. These findings suggest that the repression of CYP3A4 by IL-6 is achieved through increasing the DEC1 expression in human hepatocytes, the increased DEC1 binds to the CCCTGC sequence in the promoter of CYP3A4 to form CCCTGC-DEC1 complex, and the complex downregulates the CYP3A4 expression and its enzymatic activity. 相似文献

Induction of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is determined typically by employing primary culture of human hepatocytes and measuring CYP3A4 mRNA, protein and microsomal activity. Recently a pregnane X receptor (PXR) reporter gene assay was established to screen CYP3A4 inducers. To evaluate results from the PXR reporter gene assay with those from the aforementioned conventional assays, 14 drugs were evaluated for their ability to induce CYP3A4 and activate PXR. Sandwiched primary cultures of human hepatocytes from six donors were used and CYP3A4 activity was assessed by measuring microsomal testosterone 6beta-hydroxylase activity. Hepatic CYP3A4 mRNA and protein levels were also analyzed using branched DNA technology/Northern blotting and Western blotting, respectively. In general, PXR activation correlated with the induction potential observed in human hepatocyte cultures. Clotrimazole, phenobarbital, rifampin, and sulfinpyrazone highly activated PXR and increased CYP3A4 activity; carbamazepine, dexamethasone, dexamethasone-t-butylacetate, phenytoin, sulfadimidine, and taxol weakly activated PXR and induced CYP3A4 activity, and methotrexate and probenecid showed no marked activation in either system. Ritonavir and troleandomycin showed marked PXR activation but no increase (in the case of troleandomycin) or a significant decrease (in the case of ritonavir) in microsomal CYP3A4 activity. It is concluded that the PXR reporter gene assay is a reliable and complementary method to assess the CYP3A4 induction potential of drugs and other xenobiotics. 相似文献

Tamoxifen can exert its effects through the competitive inhibition of estrogen receptors or other mechanisms. HepG2 cells lacking estrogen receptors and engineered to overexpress CYP3A4, the most important CYP to metabolize the drug, appear to be a good model to study the effects of tamoxifen metabolites. Tamoxifen altered cell cycle of transduced HepG2 cells, decreased G0/G1 cell numbers, diminished proliferation index and induced cell death mostly in cells overexpressing CYP3A4 but was without significant effect on cytotoxicity or proliferation of cells engineered to overexpress CYP2E1 or on empty vector transfected cells. Tamoxifen did not change MDR1 levels irrespectively on CYP450s expression, but inhibited by approximately 50% p-gp functions in all cell types. Drug treatment significantly increased dehydroepiandrosterone sulfotransferase activity and sulfotransferase inhibition significantly decreased tamoxifen cytotoxicity. Our results support the view that metabolic activation of tamoxifen in liver cells may proceed via CYP450-mediated metabolism and subsequent sulfotransferase-mediated activation and point to the role of CYP3A4 and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfotransferase in adverse tamoxifen effects. 相似文献

PXR-dependent induction of human CYP3A4 gene expression by organochlorine pesticides 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
OCP are xenobiotics which display various toxic effects on animal and human health. One of their effects is to bind and activate estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha). We have previously studied the down-regulation of induced CYP1A1 (cytochrome P450) expression by this class of molecules in mammary carcinoma cells and shown the importance of ERalpha in this process. However, an alternative mechanism was suggested by those experiments in hepatoma cells. In this study, we have performed Northern blot and transient transfection assays in various cell lines and shown that OCP activate human pregnane X receptor (PXR) and subsequent CYP3A4 mRNA expression. This effect is mediated by the distal xenobiotic responsive element modulator of the promoter. The induction of CYP3A4 by OCP was dose-dependent within the 1-10 microM range. The data suggest that chronic exposure to OCP could alter a major metabolite pathway in human liver and putatively modify the pharmacokinetics of drugs and pollutants. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is a major determinant of the metabolism of many drugs, including important anticancer drugs, with sometimes profound impact on therapeutic efficacy and toxic side effects. To study in vivo CYP3A(4) functions, we have generated and characterized transgenic mice with functional expression of human CYP3A4 cDNA in the liver. Two transgenic lines displayed substantial, physiologically relevant and stable CYP3A4 levels in liver and moderate levels in kidney, but not in small intestine. The mice did not display obvious physiological abnormalities. The CYP3A4 substrate drugs midazolam and cyclosporin A were used to test functional activity of CYP3A4 in liver. The area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of intravenously administered midazolam (30 mg/kg) was 2.2-fold decreased in the transgenic mice compared with wild-type (5.45 +/- 0.21 versus 11.7 +/- 0.46 microg . h ml(-1); P < 0.01), and early formation of the primary metabolite 1-hydroxymidazolam was about 2-fold increased, demonstrating the functionality of CYP3A4 in the liver. Similarly, following intravenous administration of cyclosporin A (20 mg/kg), CYP3A4 transgenic mice displayed a reduced plasma AUC compared with wild-type (24.3 +/- 0.66 versus 35.8 +/- 0.53 microg . h ml(-) (1); P < 0.01). Thus, midazolam and cyclosporin A, compounds with markedly different clearance rates and half-lives, both demonstrated clearly accelerated kinetics in the CYP3A4 transgenic mice. We expect that this CYP3A4 transgenic model will provide a useful tool to study the impact of CYP3A4 on drug levels, especially when combined with other transgenic and knockout strains. 相似文献

The effects of perazine on the activities of CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 in a primary culture of human hepatocytes of one patient were studied in vitro. The CYPs activities were assessed by measuring the rate of acetanilide 4-hydroxylation (CYP1A2) and cyclosporine A oxidation (CYP3A4) after treatment with TCDD (a CYP1A subfamily inducer) or rifampicin (mainly a CYP3A4 inducer). The amounts of the metabolites formed in hepatocytes were assayed in the extracellular medium using the HPLC method. TCDD and rifampicin induced the formation of 4-hydroxyacetanilide and cyclosporine A metabolites (monohydroxycyclosporine A, dihydroxycyclosporine A, N-desmethylcyclosporine A), respectively. The formation of 4-hydroxyacetanilide was strongly inhibited by three different concentrations of perazine (10, 25 and 50 microM) reaching 8, 3 and 2% of the control value, respectively. In the case of CYP3A4 activity, no such an effect of perazine was observed. Perazine showed only a week inhibition of the activity of cyclosporine A oxidase (to 96-86% of the control value). The obtained results suggest a strong inhibitory effect of perazine on human CYP1A2 activity with predicted Ki value similar to those of the known for CYP1A2 inhibitors, such as furafylline and fluvoxamine. 相似文献

The hepatotoxin okadaic acid (OA) was incubated with nine human recombinant cytochrome P450s (1A1, 1A2, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, 3A4 and 3A5). Both CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 converted OA to a mixture of the same four metabolites, but incubation with CYP3A4 resulted in higher levels of conversion. Michaelis–Menten parameters, Km (73.4 μM) and Vmax (7.23 nmol of metabolites nmol?1 min?1) for CYP3A4 were calculated by analyzing double-reciprocal plots. LC–MSn analysis and chemical interconversion indicate that metabolites 2 and 3 are the 11S-hydroxy and 11R-hydroxy okadaic acid respectively, while metabolite 4 is 11-oxo okadaic acid. LC–MSn analysis of metabolite 1 shows a molecular ion which corresponds to an addition of 16 amu to OA, also suggesting hydroxylation, but the specific site has not been identified. The same four metabolites were produced upon incubation of okadaic acid with pooled human liver microsomes. This transformation could be completely inhibited with ketokonazole, and inhibitor of the CYP3A family of enzymes. The metabolites were determined to be only slightly less potent inhibitors of serine threonine protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) when compared to OA. As PP2A is the principle molecular target for OA, these oxidative transformations may not effectively detoxify OA. 相似文献
