Molecular genetics of the human cytochrome P-450 system.
barbital-type inducers in teleosts. T h e lack of PB-type induction in some groups (fish, reptilia, amphibia) must be due to either a lack of structural genejs) coding for PB-inducible forms, o r t o the lack of a regulatory mechanism like that acting to control expression of the related genes in mammals. T h e mechanism of PB induction has yet to be described. However, we recently obtained evi...
متن کاملCharacterization of a phenobarbital - inducible cytochrome P - 450 , NADPH - cytochrome P - 450 reductase and reconstituted cytochrome P - 450 mono - oxygenase system from rat brain
Cytochrome P-450 was purified to apparent homogeneity from the brain microsomes of phenobarbital-treated rats. The specific content of the purified P-450 was 12.7 nmol/mg of protein. NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase (reductase) was also purified to apparent homogeneity from brain microsomes. The specific content was 34.7,mol of cytochrome c reduced/min per mg of protein. The reduced carbon mono...
متن کاملNADPH: cytochrome P-450 reductase in olfactory epithelium. Relevance to cytochrome P-450-dependent reactions.
The presence of a very active cytochrome P-450-dependent drug-metabolizing system in the olfactory epithelium has been confirmed by using 7-ethoxycoumarin, 7-ethoxyresorufin, hexobarbitone and aniline as substrates, and the reasons for the marked activity of the cytochrome P-450 in this tissue have been investigated. The spectral interaction of hexobarbitone and aniline with hepatic and olfacto...
متن کاملCompetition between cytochrome P-450 isozymes for NADPH-cytochrome P-450 oxidoreductase affects drug metabolism.
NADPH-cytochrome P-450 oxidoreductase (CPR) is essential for the catalytic activity of cytochrome P-450 (P-450). On a molar basis, the amount of P-450 exceeds that of CPR in human liver. In this study, we investigated whether drug-drug interactions can occur as a result of competition between P-450 isozymes for this ancillary protein. For this purpose, combinations of P-450 isozymes were coexpr...
متن کاملDistribution of cytochromes P-450, cytochrome b5, and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase in an entire human liver.
In rat liver there appear to be significant differences between lobes in the concentration of individual cytochrome P-450 isozymes (Sumner and Lodola, Biochem Pharmacol 36: 391-393, 1987). Because studies in patients often rely on small pieces of liver obtained from diverse anatomical locations, it seemed important to determine if the cytochromes P-450 were also heterogeneously distributed in h...
