The influence of dietary 2-acetylaminofluorene (AAF) on the cytochrome P-450 content of rat liver microsomal and nuclear fractions was immunochemically probed with monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to cytochromes P-450c and P-450d. Cytochrome P-450d but not P-450c was immunodetected in microsomes, nuclear envelopes, and nuclei from untreated rats. The levels of both cytochromes P-450c and P-450d were elevated after a diet of either 0.1% AAF for 1 week or 0.05% AAF for 3 weeks. However, the level of cytochrome P-450c relative to P-450d was lower after the more prolonged AAF feeding. Supplementation of AAF-containing diets with 0.3% butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), which affords protection against AAF hepatocarcinogenesis in high-fat fed rats, protected and/or induced total (spectral) nuclear envelope cytochrome P-450 content. Immunochemical studies of liver fractions showed that BHT enhanced the AAF-dependent induction of cytochrome P-450c, but not of P-450d. This was a concerted effect of AAF + BHT since dietary BHT by itself did not affect the levels of cytochrome P-450c or P-450d as compared to control rats. Since 1- to 3-week dietary AAF had little effect on total (spectral analyses) microsomal cytochrome P-450 but markedly reduced total P-450 in nuclear envelopes, the coordinated induction of specific cytochrome P-450s in the different fractions suggests selective induction and depression of different forms of cytochrome P-450 and provides additional evidence for independent regulation of the drug-metabolizing system in nuclear envelope and microsomes. In addition, these results suggest that regulation of cytochrome P-450 may play a crucial role in the nutritional modulation of AAF hepatocarcinogenesis.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
D003577 Cytochrome P-450 Enzyme System A superfamily of hundreds of closely related HEMEPROTEINS found throughout the phylogenetic spectrum, from animals, plants, fungi, to bacteria. They include numerous complex monooxygenases (MIXED FUNCTION OXYGENASES). In animals, these P-450 enzymes serve two major functions: (1) biosynthesis of steroids, fatty acids, and bile acids; (2) metabolism of endogenous and a wide variety of exogenous substrates, such as toxins and drugs (BIOTRANSFORMATION). They are classified, according to their sequence similarities rather than functions, into CYP gene families (>40% homology) and subfamilies (>59% homology). For example, enzymes from the CYP1, CYP2, and CYP3 gene families are responsible for most drug metabolism.
