چکیده

In cell cultures previously treated with homologous interferon, the magnitude of antiviral activity and the degree of stimulation of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase induction appear to be directly related. In a highly purified mouse interferon preparation, the factor stimulating hydroxylase induction and the factor directing antiviral activity are inactivated by heating to 70 C or by treating with trypsin. Also, both activities demonstrate species specificity.

Genetic differences in the extent of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase induction in mouse fetal cell cultures.

Benz[a]anthracene induces aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity in secondary fetal cell cultures derived from various inbred mouse strains. The maximally inducible level of hydroxylase activity from the C57BL/6N strain is 4 to 6 times higher than that from the DBA/ZN strain in cell cultures derived from the entire mouse fetus. There are no differences between C57BL/6N and DBA/2N cell cultures i...

The role of ribonucleic acid and protein synthesis in microsomal aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase induction in cell culture. The independence of transcription and translation.

Aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase is a microsomal mixed function oxygenase induced by benz[a]anthracene and other polycyclic hydrocarbons in mammalian cell culture. Actinomycin D or Z-mercapto-1-(/3-4-pyridethyl)benzimidazole (inhibitors of RNA synthesis) or cycloheximide or puromycin (inhibitors of protein synthesis), added simultaneously with benz[a]anthracene, completely prevents aryl hydrocarbon...

Biochemical Activation of Aryl Hydrocarbon Hydroxylase Activity, Cellular Distribution of Polynuclear Hydrocarbon Metabolites, and DMA Damage by Polynuclear Hydrocarbon Products in Human Cells in V/fro1

Carcinogenic polynuclear hydrocarbons [7,12-dimethylbenzanthracene, 3-methylcholanthrene, and benzo(a)pyrene] were added to human skin fibroblast cell cultures. Only benzo(a)pyrene at 10 ¿ig/mlor above induced mixed-function hydroxylase activity, altered cell prolifer ation kinetics, and caused DNA damage as measured by altered grain count and bromodeoxyuridine incorporation. 3-Methylcholanthr...

EFFECT OF THE ADRENAL 11-b-HYDROXYLASE INHIBITOR METYRAPONE ON HUMAN HEPATIC CYTOCHROME P-450 EXPRESSION: INDUCTION OF CYTOCHROME P-450 3A4

The drug metyrapone in the presence of glucocorticoid has been shown to induce the expression of rat hepatic cytochrome P-450 (CYP) 1A1 mRNA in vivo and in vitro through disruption of endogenous CYP1A1 regulator homeostasis and without either compound’s binding to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor. Addition of metyrapone to human liver cancer cell cultures, with or without dexamethasone, did not in...

Development of an assay for aryl hydrocarbon (benzo(a)pyrene) hydroxylase in human peripheral blood monocytes.

An assay has been developed and measurements of aryl hydrocarbon [benzo(a)pyrene] hydroxylase have been made in peripheral blood monocytes from a human population. Treatment with benz(a)anthracene in cell culture increased aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity from 6.5 to 37-fold in monocytes from each of 25 apparently healthy donors. A weak correlation (r = 0.38) was observed between the induc...
