Inhibition of CYP450 1A and 3A by berberine in crucian carp Carassius auratus gibelio.

چکیده
Berberine has long been considered as an antibiotic candidate in aquaculture. However, studies regarding its effects on drug-metabolizing enzymes in fish are still limited. In the present study, the effects of berberine on cytochrome P4501A (CYP1A) and CYP3A in crucian carp were investigated. Injection of different concentrations of berberine (0, 5, 25, 50, and 100mg/kg) inhibited the CYP1A mRNA expression, thereby inhibiting further the catalytic activity of CYP1A-related ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD). Furthermore, both CYP1A expression and EROD activity were further inhibited with increasing berberine concentrations. In addition, the CYP3A expressions at both the mRNA and the protein levels were downregulated by higher berberine concentrations. The catalytic activity of CYP3A-related erythromycin N-demethylase (ERND) was also inhibited by berberine at a dose of no less than 25mg/kg. Moreover, at the berberine concentration exceeding 25mg/kg, the inhibition of CYP3A expression and ERND activity increased with increasing berberine concentrations. In vitro experiments were also performed. When berberine was pre-incubated with the crucian carp liver microsomes, it competitively inhibited the corresponding EROD activity with the IC(50) of 11.7 μM. However, the ERND activity was slightly inhibited by berberine with the IC(50) of 206.4 μM. These results suggest that, in crucian carp, berberine may be a potent inhibitor to CYP1A, whereas the CYP3A inhibition needs a higher concentration of berberine.

Nano-selenium (Se), with its high bioavailability and low toxicity, has attracted wide attention for its potential application in the prevention of oxidative damage in animal tissues. However, the effect of nano-Se of different sizes on the intestinal epithelial cells of the crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) is poorly understood. Our study showed that different sizes and doses of nano-Se...

Carassius auratus var. pingxiangnensis is a natural triploid crucian carp mutant. In order to understand its placement and genetic background at the gene level, the characteristics of mitochondrial DNA sequences and phylogenetic relationship were examined. The results showed that the mitochondrial DNA is a circular double-stranded DNA molecule that is 16,576 bp in length with 13 protein-coding ...
