Immunocytochemical studies with a monoclonal antibody (MAb-HL3), which recognises a major isozyme of human hepatic cytochrome P-450, have demonstrated this cytochrome in both cryostat and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections of normal human adult liver. Prior trypsin digestion of the formalin-fixed sections prevented staining. There was a zonal distribution of immunoreactive cytochrome P-450, with localization predominantly in the hepatocytes of zone 3 of the hepatic acinus (the centrilobular region). Cytochrome P-450 was also demonstrated in foetal liver, but all foetal hepatocytes contained immunoreactive cytochrome P-450 and there was no zonal distribution of the protein. The biliary epithelium of adult liver contained a small amount of immunoreactive cytochrome P-450 whereas there was no immunoreactivity in the epithelium of foetal bile ducts.

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.
