Hepatic cytochrome P450 gene regulation during endotoxin-induced inflammation in nuclear receptor knockout mice.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Inflammatory agents such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS) down-regulate the hepatic expression of many cytochrome P450 (P450) mRNAs and proteins. Previous studies suggested that suppression of some P450 mRNAs could involve the regulation or modulation of the nuclear receptors peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) or pregnane X receptor (PXR). To determine the involvement of these receptors in P450 down-regulation, PPARalpha knockout (KO), PXR KO, and appropriate wild-type (WT) mice were administered either saline or 1 mg/kg LPS. Hepatic mRNA and protein expression of several P450 isoforms, interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha, alpha1-acid glycoprotein (AGP), and fibrinogen (FBG) were examined 16 h later. LPS administration significantly decreased the hepatic expression of CYP1A2, 2A5, 2C29, 2E1, 3A11, 4A10, and 4A14 mRNAs in both groups of PPARalpha and PXR mice, whereas CYP3A13 mRNA was increased slightly in PPARalpha WT and KO mice, but not in PXR mice. Effects of LPS administration on mouse hepatic P450 proteins (probed using rat P450 2C, 3A, 4A, and 2E antibodies) were consistent with mRNA results in most cases. LPS treatment significantly increased IL-1beta, IL-6, TNFalpha, AGP, and FBG mRNA in both PPARalpha and PXR mice, with the greatest effect observed with TNFalpha. Because decreases in P450 mRNA expression were essentially identical in both WT and KO mice for both nuclear receptors, these data indicate that down-regulation of P450 during inflammation does not require the nuclear receptors PPARalpha and PXR.

Down-regulation of cytochrome P450 mRNAs and proteins in mice lacking a functional NOS2 gene.
Endotoxemia results in both the down-regulation of multiple cytochrome P450 genes and the induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2). The nitric oxide (NO) released during inflammation has been implicated as the mediator of the decreased catalytic activity and expression of several cytochrome P450 isozymes. We examined the role of NO in the decreases in both gene expression and activit...

Citrobacter rodentium is the rodent equivalent of human enteropathogenic Escherichia coli infection. This study investigated regulation of hepatic and renal cytochrome P450 (P450) mRNAs, hepatic P450 proteins, cytokines, and acute phase proteins during C. rodentium infection. Female C3H/HeOuJ (HeOu) and C3H/HeJ (HeJ) mice [which lack functional toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)] were infected with C....

Hepatic cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes are down-regulated during inflammation. In this study, an animal model of inflammatory bowel disease was subjected to characterization of hepatic P450 expression under inflammatory conditions. Rats were treated intracolonically with 100 mg/kg trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) dissolved in 30% ethanol, and homogenates of colonic mucosa and hepatic micros...

Background: Hepatic encephalopathy is defined as a neuropsychiatric brain dysfunction in acute or chronic liver failure. Infection and inflammation have crucial role in its pathophysiology. The purpose of our study was to demonstrate the relationship between toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression and the encephalopathy induced with endotoxin in biliary cirrhotic rats. Methods: The present stud...
