Abstract:
:The expression and activity of the phenobarbital (PB)-inducible P-450 isozymes, P-450b and P-450e, and the major 3-methylcholanthrene (MC)-inducible form, P-450c, were studied in primary cultures of adult rat hepatocytes in T1, Leibovitz L-15 (L-15), and a modification of Waymouth 752/1 (Way) media. P-450 isozymes in initially isolated hepatocytes and control and PB-treated cultures were quantitated by Western blot analysis, and activity was determined with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) as substrate. Data from the Western blot analysis correlated well with the metabolic activity toward DMBA. P-450b was consistently induced by PB in hepatocytes in T1 and to a lesser extent in Way. P-450e protein was constitutive in initially isolated cells, expressed in control cultures at a reduced level, and increased or maintained by PB in all three media. DMBA metabolite formation associated with P-450b and P-450e activity was induced by PB in hepatocytes in T1 and Way and was inhibited by antibodies to P-450b. P-450c was only infrequently expressed in freshly prepared hepatocytes, but was detected in all control and PB-treated cultures although at a much higher level in T1. Thus, the amounts of P-450 isozymes, their inducibility by PB, and their activity toward DMBA were found to be dependent on the medium. We have demonstrated enzyme induction and increased activity of the major PB-inducible isozymes in hepatocytes in T1; these are also associated with a change in the control of P-450c expression leading to enhanced constitutive expression and inducibility by phenobarbital.
