Tissue-specific metabolism of benzo[a]pyrene in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss): a comparison between the liver and immune organs.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are immunotoxicants in fish. In mammals, phase I metabolites are believed to be critically involved in the immunotoxicity of PAHs. This mechanism has been suggested for fish as well. The present study investigates the capacity of immune organs (head kidney, spleen) of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, to metabolize the prototypic PAH, benzo[a]pyrene (Ba...

متن کاملPolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as inducers of cytochrome P4501A enzyme activity in the rainbow trout liver cell line, RTL-W1, and in primary cultures of rainbow trout hepatocytes.
In order to investigate cell-specific differences in the response of in vitro models to environmental toxicants, we compared the capacity of nine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) to induce cytochrome P4501A (CYPIA) in primary rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) hepatocytes and a rainbow trout liver cell line, RTL-W1. Induction of CYPIA was estimated from the catalytic activity of 7-ethox...
متن کاملbeta-Naphthoflavone and benzo(a)pyrene treatment affect liver intermediary metabolism and plasma cortisol levels in rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss.
To assess the effects of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) beta-naphthoflavone (beta-NF) and benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) on liver intermediary metabolism and plasma steroid hormones, immature female rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were intraperitoneally injected (2 microl g(-1)) with vegetable oil alone (control) or containing beta-NF or BaP (10 mg kg(-1)) and returned to their tanks; 3,...
متن کاملSurface marker-defined head kidney granulocytes and B lymphocytes of rainbow trout express benzo[a]pyrene-inducible cytochrome P4501A protein.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) such as benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) are immunotoxic to fish. Metabolism of PAHs in immune cells has been implicated in PAH immunotoxicity in mammals, but for fish the presence of metabolic enzymes in immune cells is less clear. The objective of this study was to examine localization and induction of the BaP-metabolizing biotransformation enzyme, cytochrome P4501...
