Organ-specific roles of CYP1A1 during detoxication of dietary benzo[a]pyrene.

Abstract：

:Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widely distributed environmental toxicants derived from sources that include cigarette smoke, petroleum distillation, gas- and diesel-engine exhaust, and charcoal-grilled food. The gastrointestinal tract is the principal route of PAH exposures, even when inhaled. The most thoroughly studied prototype of PAHs is benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), well known to be toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic in various tissues and cell types. This lab has previously shown that Cyp1a1(-/-) global knockout mice treated by oral administration of BaP die at 28 to 32 days with immunosuppression, whereas wild-type mice remain healthy for 1 year on high BaP doses (125 mg/kg/day). Thus, for oral BaP, CYP1A1 is more important in detoxication than in metabolic activation. After several days of oral BaP, we found surprisingly low CYP1A1 levels in liver, compared with that in small intestine; we postulated that this finding might reflect efficient detoxication of oral BaP in proximal small intestine such that significant amounts of the inducer BaP no longer reach the liver. In the present study, many parameters were therefore compared in wild-type, Cyp1a1(-/-) global knockout, intestinal epithelial cell-specific Cyp1a1 knockout, and hepatocyte-specific Cyp1a1 knockout mice as a function of long-term oral exposure to BaP. The peak of CYP1A1 (mRNA, protein) expression in liver occurred at 12 h, whereas highly induced CYP1A1 in small intestine persisted throughout the 30-day experiment. Hepatocyte-specific Cyp1a1 knockout mice remained as healthy as wild-type mice; intestinal epithelial cell-specific Cyp1a1 knockout mice behaved like Cyp1a1(-/-) mice, dying with immunosuppression approximately 30 days on oral BaP. We conclude that small intestine CYP1A1, and not liver CYP1A1, is critically important in oral BaP detoxication.
