1. Inhibition of nitric oxide generation with Nw-nitro-L-arginine (nitroarginine) reduced vasodilator responses to bradykinin and acetylcholine and enhanced those to nitroprusside in the rat isolated perfused kidney, preconstricted with phenylephrine. 2. Inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase with indomethacin, decreased the vasodilator responses to bradykinin by approximately 25% without affecting those to acetylcholine or nitroprusside. 3. BW755c, a dual inhibitor of cyclo-oxygenase and lipoxygenase, reduced renal vasodilator responses to bradykinin, comparable to the effect of indomethacin suggesting an effect related to inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase rather than lipoxygenase. 4. ETYA, an inhibitor of all arachidonic acid metabolic pathways, markedly reduced vasodilator responses to bradykinin but was without effect on the renal vasodilatation induced by acetylcholine or nitroprusside. 5. Clotrimazole and 7-ethoxyresorufin, inhibitors of cytochrome P450, greatly attenuated vasodilator responses to bradykinin without affecting those to acetylcholine or nitroprusside. 6. These data suggest that the renal vasodilator response to bradykinin is subserved by arachidonic acid metabolites as well as nitric oxide, the former accounting for up to 70% of the vasodilator effect of bradykinin. 相似文献

Considerable evidence has accumulated over the last decade implicating a role of cytochrome P450 (CYP)-dependent metabolites of arachidonic acid (AA) in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Indeed, 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) is produced by vascular smooth muscle (VSM) cells and is a potent vasoconstrictor that depolarizes VSM by blocking large conductance Ca+-activated K2+ channels. In contrast, epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are synthesized by the vascular endothelium and have opposite effects on VSM (hyperpolarization and vasodilatation). Inhibition of the synthesis of 20-HETE attenuates myogenic tone and autoregulation of blood flow and modulates vascular responses to vasodilators (NO and CO) and vasoconstrictors (angiotensin II, endothelin). In the kidney, 20-HETE inhibits sodium transport in the proximal tubule by blocking Na+-K+-ATPase activity. In the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle, 20-HETE inhibits Na+-K+-2Cl- transport, in part, by blocking a 70 pS apical K+ channel. EETs are produced in the proximal tubule where they inhibit Na+-H+ exchange and in the collecting duct where they inhibit sodium and water transport. Numerous studies have established that the formation of EETs and 20-HETE and the expression of CYP enzymes are altered in the kidney in many genetic and experimental animal models of hypertension and in some forms of human hypertension. However, the functional significance of these changes remains to be determined. Given the importance of this pathway in the control of renal function and vascular tone, it is likely that alterations in the renal formation of CYP-dependent metabolites of AA will be shown to participate in the development of hypertension in many of these models. 相似文献

1 The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of inhibition of the formation of cytochrome P450 metabolites of arachidonic acid with 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT) on the development of hypertension and end-organ damage in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) chronically treated with nitric oxide synthesis inhibitor L-NAME (SHR-L-NAME). 2 Administration of L-NAME in drinking water (80 mg l(-1)) to SHR for 3 weeks significantly elevated mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) (223 +/- 4 mmHg) as compared to SHR controls drinking regular water (165 +/- 3 mmHg). The administration of ABT (50 mg kg(-1) i.p. alt diem) for 6 days significantly attenuated elevation of blood pressure in SHR-L-NAME (204 +/- 4 mmHg). 3 L-NAME-induced increase in urine volume and protein was significantly lower in ABT-treated animals. 4 The impaired vascular responsiveness to noradrenaline and isoprenaline in the perfused mesenteric vascular bed of SHR-L-NAME-treated animals was significantly improved by ABT treatment. 5 Morphological studies of the kidneys and hearts showed that treatment with ABT minimized the extensive arterial fibrinoid necrosis, arterial thrombosis, significant narrowing of arterial lumen with marked arterial hyperplastic arterial changes that were observed in vehicle treated SHR-L-NAME. 6 In isolated perfused hearts, recovery of left ventricular function from 40 min of global ischaemia was significantly better in ABT-treated SHR-L-NAME. 7 These results suggest that in hypertensive individuals with endothelial dysfunction and chronic NO deficiency, inhibitors of 20-HETE synthesis may be able to attenuate development of high blood pressure and end-organ damage. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450-dependent arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism by medullary thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle (mTALH) cells, corneal epithelium and other transporting epithelia, such as those of the intestines, generate metabolites which affect Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity, vasomotion and, thereby, organ function. Further, these novel AA metabolites contribute to the control of blood pressure in the SHR through participation in the local control of blood flow and in the regulation of extracellular fluid volume. 相似文献

Drug interactions have previously been reported following the co-administration of methylphenidate (MPH) and drugs metabolized by the cytochrome P450 (CYP450) system such as imipramine. Therefore, this study used the Swiss Webster mouse to determine the effect of MPH on CYP450 isozymes likely to be important in the interaction between MPH and imipramine. Single high doses of MPH (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg, i.p.) were administered to simulate the abuse of MPH. Under these conditions, MPH decreased total hepatic CYP450 to 50% of control. Additionally, MPH inhibited the catalytic activity of CYP1A and CYP2E1 by 50%, and decreased the polypeptide levels of CYP3A by 30%. In a second study designed to simulate more closely therapeutic use, MPH was administered orally for two weeks at 10-fold lower doses (2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg/day). MPH decreased total hepatic CYP450 at both 5 and 10 mg/ kg/day (0.96 +/- 0.01 and 0.96 +/- 0.06 nmol/mg versus 1.34 +/- 0.01 nmol/mg for saline control, P<0.05). The catalytic activity and protein levels of CYP1A were diminished by up to 50% of control, while catalytic activity and polypeptide levels for CYP2E1 and CYP3A remained unchanged. These results indicate that MPH inhibits the CYP450 system following both abuse and therapeutic scenarios. However, this effect was dependent on both the isoform of CYP450 and the duration of MPH administration. 相似文献

Effect of citral on mouse hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Context: Citral is used as a potential natural treatment for various infectious diseases.Objective: To examine the effect of citral on the mRNA expression and activities of cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes and establish the relationship between citral-induced liver injury and oxidative stress.Materials and methods: ICR mice were randomly divided into citral (20, 200, and 2000?mg/kglow), Tween-80, and control groups (0.9% saline), 10 mice in each group. The citral-treated groups were intragastrically administered citral for 3 d, control groups treated with 0.5% Tween-80 and 0.9% saline in the same way. Liver injury and CYP450 enzymes were analyzed by analyzing the histopathological changes and the changes of related enzymes.Results: Citral treatment (2000?mg/kg) for 3 d increased serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase and glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase levels, as well as glutathione, gydroxyl radicals, malonaldehyde and total superoxide dismutase contents, but decreased the content of total antioxidant capacity. In doses of 20 and 200?mg/kg groups mice, the contents of NO were decreased significantly and other changes were similar to the 2000?mg/kg group mice, but the liver damage was most severe in the 2000?mg/kg group. Citral induced the mRNA expression and activities of CYP450 1A2, 2D22, and 2E1 in the liver of mice at doses of 20 and 200?mg/kg. There were no changes in testing indexes in Tween-80 treated group mice. Due to its toxic effects, the CYP induction effect of citral negatively correlated with its dose. Although the mRNA expression of CYP450 3A11 was induced by citral, its activity was not affected by low and moderate doses of citral. CYP450 3A11 activity was significantly decreased by high-dose citral.Conclusions: Citral is hepatotoxic and induced oxidative stress in higher dose, which has a negative effect on CYP450 enzymes. These data suggest caution needs to be taken in order to avoid citral-drug interactions in human beings. 相似文献

The expression of biotransformation enzymes in mouse small intestine is poorly characterized, which limits the utility of transgenic or knockout mouse models for first-pass drug metabolism studies. In response, we have systematically examined the composition and inducibility of cytochrome P450 (P450) protein and mRNA in mouse small intestinal epithelial cells (enterocytes). RNA-PCR was conducted to confirm the expression and identity of CYP1A1, 1B1, 2B10, 2B19, 2B20, 2C29, 2C38, 2C40, 2E1, 3A11, 3A13, 3A16, 3A25, and 3A44 in the enterocytes of untreated mice, but CYP1A2, 2A4/5, 2A12, 2C37, 2C39, and 2F2 were not detected. The inducibility of CYP2B, 2C, and 3A subfamily forms was determined by real-time quantitative RNA-PCR. All five CYP3A forms were induced, in a range from 1.7- to 4.5-fold, by dexamethasone (DEX). Phenobarbital (PB) induced CYP2B9, CYP2B10, and CYP2B20 mRNAs and suppressed CYP2B19 mRNA levels. PB also induced CYP2C29 and CYP2C40, but not CYP2C38 mRNA. At the protein level, CYP1A1, CYP1B1, CYP2B, CYP2C, CYP2E1, and CYP3A were detected in enterocytes from untreated mice by immunoblot analysis. CYP1A1 was inducible by beta-naphthoflavone (BNF), CYP2B and CYP2C by PB, and CYP3A by DEX. CYP2B, 2C, and 3A proteins were all expressed at high levels proximally, and decreased distally. The inducibility of CYP1A1 followed a similar pattern. Intestinal P450 expression was compared between C57BL/6 (B6) and 129/sv (129) mice, strains commonly used in the preparation of transgenic and knockout mouse models. There was no significant strain difference in constitutive levels or induction patterns for CYP2B, 2C, and 3A protein. However, CYP1A1 was induced to a high level by BNF in B6 mice, but was not induced in the 129 mice. 相似文献

Enzymatic formation of desipramine (DMI) and imipramine N-oxide (IMINO) was kinetically characterized in rat liver microsomes at pH 8.5 and 7.5. The formation of IMINO was quickly suppressed by the preincubation of microsomes at 37 degrees C at pH 8.5, but the suppression was comparatively gentle at pH 7.5. In kinetic studies, the formation of DMI was monophasic at the two pH points, and a substrate inhibition was observed at pH 8.5, but not at pH 7.5. In contrast, the formation of IMINO was biphasic at both pH points, Le., the summation of a low-Km phase and a high-Km phase. Methimazole (MZ), an inhibitor of flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO), markedly suppressed the low-Km phase of IMINO formation at both pH points. MZ also suppressed DMI formation at pH 8.5, but it elevated DMI formation at pH 7.5. SKF 525-A, an inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP), markedly suppressed DMI formation at both pH points. The inhibitor suppressed IMINO formation in the high-Km phase of the biphasic kinetics at both pH points, whereas it stimulated the activity of the low-Km phase at pH 7.5. These results suggest that CYP enzyme(s) are mainly responsible for DMI formation at pH 8.5 and 7.5, and FMO enzyme(s) also are involved in IMI N-demethylation at a higher pH range in rat liver microsomes, at least in part. In the formation of IMINO, FMO is a major enzyme at both pH points, and CYP may also contribute to the N-oxide formation to some extent at pH 8.5. 相似文献

Previous studies have demonstrated an important role for the cytochrome P450 (CYT-P450) pathway in afferent arteriole autoregulatory responses but the involvement of specific pathways remains unknown. Experiments were performed to determine the role of CYT-P450 epoxygenase and hydroxylase pathways in pressure mediated preglomerular autoregulatory responses. Afferent arteriolar diameter was measured as renal perfusion pressure was increased from 80-160 mmHg. Afferent arteriolar diameter averaged 19+/-2 microm at a renal perfusion pressure of 80 mmHg and decreased by 15+/-2% when pressure was increased to 160 mmHg. Inhibition of the epoxygenase pathway with 6-(2-proparglyloxyphenyl)hexanoic acid (PPOH), enhanced the microvascular response to increasing renal perfusion pressure. In the presence of 50 microM PPOH, afferent arteriolar diameter decreased by 29+/-4% when pressure was increased from 80-160 mmHg. Likewise, the sulphonimide derivative of PPOH, N-methylsulphonyl-6-(2-proparglyloxyphenyl) hexanamide (MS-PPOH, 50 microM), enhanced the afferent arteriolar response to increasing renal perfusion pressure. In contrast, the selective CYT-P450 hydroxylase inhibitor, N-methylsulphonyl-12,12-dibromododec-11-enamide (DDMS) attenuated the vascular response to increasing renal perfusion pressure. In the pressure of 25 microM DDMS, afferent arteriolar diameter decreased by 4+/-2% when pressure was increased from 80-160 mmHg. These results suggest that CYT-P450 metabolites of the epoxygenase pathway alter afferent arteriolar responsiveness and thereby modify the ability of the preglomerular vasculature to autoregulate renal blood flow. Additionally, these results provide further support to the concept that a metabolite of the hydroxylase pathway is an integral component of the afferent arteriolar response to elevations in perfusion pressure. 相似文献

We have used monoclonal antibodies that were prepared against and specifically recognize human hepatic cytochromes P450 as probes for solid phase radioimmunoassay and Western immunoblotting to directly demonstrate the presence in human lung microsomes of cytochromes P450 immunochemically related to human liver cytochromes P450IIE1 (CYP2E1) and P450IIIA (CYP3A). The detected levels of these cytochromes are much lower than levels in human liver microsomes, but similar to the levels seen in microsomes from untreated baboon lung. Proteins immunochemically related to two other constitutive hepatic cytochromes P450, cytochrome P450IIC8 (CYP2C8) and cytochrome P450IIC9 (CYP2C9), were not detectable in lung microsomes. 相似文献

The uricosuric diuretic agent tienilic acid (TA) is a thiophene-containing compound that is metabolized by P450 2C9 to 5-OH-TA. A reactive metabolite of TA also forms a covalent adduct to P450 2C9 that inactivates the enzyme and initiates immune-mediated hepatic injury in humans, purportedly through a thiophene-S-oxide intermediate. The 3-thenoyl regioisomer of TA, tienilic acid isomer (TAI), is chemically very similar and is reported to be oxidized by P450 2C9 to a thiophene-S-oxide, yet it is not a mechanism-based inactivator (MBI) of P450 2C9 and is reported to be an intrinsic hepatotoxin in rats. The goal of the work presented in this article was to identify the reactive metabolites of TA and TAI by the characterization of products derived from P450 2C9-mediated oxidation. In addition, in silico approaches were used to better understand both the mechanisms of oxidation of TA and TAI and/or the structural rearrangements of oxidized thiophene compounds. Incubation of TA with P450 2C9 and NADPH yielded the well-characterized 5-OH-TA metabolite as the major product. However, contrary to previous reports, it was found that TAI was oxidized to two different types of reactive intermediates that ultimately lead to two types of products, a pair of hydroxythiophene/thiolactone tautomers and an S-oxide dimer. Both TA and TAI incorporated 1?O from 1?O? into their respective hydroxythiophene/thiolactone metabolites indicating that these products are derived from an arene oxide pathway. Intrinsic reaction coordinate calculations of the rearrangement reactions of the model compound 2-acetylthiophene-S-oxide showed that a 1,5-oxygen migration mechanism is energetically unfavorable and does not yield the 5-OH product but instead yields a six-membered oxathiine ring. Therefore, arene oxide formation and subsequent NIH-shift rearrangement remains the favored mechanism for formation of 5-OH-TA. This also implicates the arene oxide as the initiating factor in TA induced liver injury via covalent modification of P450 2C9. Finally, in silico modeling of P450 2C9 active site ligand interactions with TA using the catalytically active iron-oxo species revealed significant differences in the orientations of TA and TAI in the active site, which correlated well with experimental results showing that TA was oxidized only to a ring carbon hydroxylated product, whereas TAI formed both ring carbon hydroxylated products and an S-oxide. 相似文献

Polyclonal antibodies generated to four distinct mouse liver phenobarbital-inducible cytochrome P450 isoforms were used to analyse related forms in human liver. N-terminal sequence analysis and biochemical properties of the P450s used as antigens suggest that they belong to P450 subfamilies IIB (P450PBI), IA (P450PBII), IIC (P450PBIII) and IIA (P450Coh). In immunoblot analysis, anti-P450PBII detected a single protein presumed to be P450IA2 in all the human livers tested. No proteins corresponding with P450IA1 could be detected. Anti-PBIII and anti-P450Coh antibodies each detected one band (54 and 48 kDa, respectively) in the liver samples. No bands were revealed by anti-P450PBI antibody. Protein dot-immunobinding analysis showed that P450s immunodetectable by anti-P450PBII, anti-P450PBIII and anti-P450Coh antibodies are expressed in human liver (range 9 to 69 pmol P450/mg protein). In immunoinhibition experiments the activity of 7-ethoxyresorutin O-deethylase (EROD) was blocked up to 90% by the anti-P450PBII antibody. Aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) was inhibited only by anti-P450PBIII, and coumarin 7-hydroxylase (COH) only by anti-P450Coh antibody. Testosterone hydroxylations in positions 6 beta, 7 alpha, 15 alpha and 16 alpha were not affected significantly by any of the antibodies. These data suggest that the human liver P450IA2 is responsible for most of the elevated EROD activity, P450s in the IIC subfamily for constitutive AHH and P450s in the IIA subfamily for all of COH activity. 相似文献

The expression of eight mouse hepatic cytochrome P450s (P450s) genes was investigated at the mRNA level in relation with the pattern of growth hormone (GH) administration. The constitutive expression of five sex-dependent P450s was sexually dimorphic, namely female>male for CYP2A4, CYP2B9, CYP2B10, and CYP3A41, and male>female for CYP2D9. In mice neonatally treated with monosodium L-glutamate to produce GH-deficiency, GH was found to be an essential factor with GH archetype as a determinant in the regulatory mechanism of hepatic CYP2D9 and CYP3A41 expression, and GH was shown to be a repressive factor for the constitutive expression in females. Implantation with micro-osmotic pump containing GH (to yield a constant release of GH to mimic the plasma GH profile in females) to male mice increased CYP2A4, CYP2B9, CYP2B10, and CYP3A41, but decreased CYP2D9, expression to female levels, while conversely, twice-daily administration of GH (to produce the so-called male pattern of plasma GH levels) to female mice resulted in the repression of female-specific, CYP2B9 and CYP3A41, as well as female-predominant, CYP2A4 and CYP2B10, expression, and induction of male-specific CYP2D9 expression. Thus, the sex-dependent plasma GH profile (referred to hereafter as the GH archetype) was a decisive factor for the expression of sex-specific P450 genes in adult mouse liver. On the other hand, the regulation of CYP1A2, CYP2C29, and CYP3A11 expression was either sex-independent or GH archetype-independent, considering the comparable levels between sexes of the constitutive expression and GH-inducible expression of these isoforms. Moreover, the observations suggested for the first time that the expression of CYP2B9 and CYP2A4 was not entirely GH-independent, but rather involved an imprinting GH-related factor that participated in the regulatory mechanism of P450 expression in females. 相似文献

1. Aminopyrine N-demethylase activity was determined for 11 forms of human hepatic cytochrome P450s (P450s) expressed in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and for human steroidogenic CYP17 expressed in Escherichia coli. 2. Among the hepatic P450s, the N-demethylation of aminopyrine was catalysed most efficiently by CYP2C19, followed by CYP2C8, 2D6, 2C18 and 1A2, whereas the activity with CYP2E1 was negligible. The kinetics of the N-demethylation process by CYP1A2, 2C8, 2C19 and 2D6 were studied by fitting to Michaelis-Menten kinetics by Lineweaver-Burk plots. CYP2C19 exhibited the highest affinity and a high capacity for the aminopyrine N-demethylation. CYP2C8 showed the highest Vmax, followed by CYP2C19, 2D6 and 1A2, whereas the Km for CYP2C8, 2D6 and 1A2 were 10-17 times higher than that for CYP2C19. Accordingly, the Vmax/Km for CYP2C19 was more than nine times higher than that of other P450s. 3. Human steroidogenic CYP17 also catalysed aminopyrine N-demethylation and the activity was comparable with that for CYP3A4 which is a dominant P450 in human liver. The activity was increased 1.5-fold by the addition of cytochrome b5, whereas the activity was not affected by the addition of Mg2+. 4. These results suggest that several human hepatic P450s, especially CYP2C19, and steroidogenic CYP17 exhibit aminopyrine N-demethylase activity. 相似文献

Endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells are the major cells that constitute blood vessels, and endothelial cells line the lumen of blood vessels. These 2 types of cells also play an integral role in the regional specialization of vascular structure. On the basis of these observations, we designed our study to investigate the effect of various statins on CYP expression in endothelial cells. 3-hydroxymethyl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors play an important role in vascular function. The majority of the statins available on the market show extensive metabolism by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. Both cell types are involved in the bioconversion of arachidonic acid into vasoactive compounds. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effect of statins on cytochrome P450 expression in endothelial cells. Our results show that endothelial cells expressed both CYPs involved in epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs) production and the nuclear receptor implicated in cytochrome P450 regulation. Treatment of endothelial cells with lovastatin increased CYP2C9 expression. After 96 hours of treatment, fluvastatin and lovastatin clearly increased CYP2C9 protein level. CAR but not PXR was expressed in endothelial cells, indicating that the upregulating effect of statins on CYP2C9 in endothelial cells could be mediated through CAR only due to the lack of expression of PXR in these cells. 相似文献

Atorvastatin is a 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor that is mainly metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4. A recent study showed that the lipid-lowering effect of statins is affected by the CYP3A5 polymorphism. Therefore, it was investigated whether CYP3A5 contributes to the metabolism of atorvastatin. Two metabolites of atorvastatin, para- and ortho-hydroxyatorvastatin, were produced by human liver microsomes and human recombinant CYP3A enzymes, and the enzyme kinetic pattern exhibited substrate inhibition. The intrinsic clearance (CLint) rates of para- and ortho-hydroxyatorvastatin by CYP3A4 were 2.4- and 5.0-fold of the respective CLint rates of CYP3A5, indicating that CYP3A4 is the major P450 isoform responsible for atorvastatin metabolism. These results suggest that atorvastatin is preferentially metabolized by CYP3A4 rather than by CYP3A5, and thus the genetic CYP3A5 polymorphism might not be an important factor in the inter-individual variation of atorvastatin disposition and pharmacodynamics in human. 相似文献

These results suggest that atorvastatin is preferentially metabolized by CYP3A4 rather than by CYP3A5, and thus the genetic CYP3A5 polymorphism might not be an important factor in the inter-individual variation of atorvastatin disposition and pharmacodynamics in human. 相似文献
