Flavanone, flavone, and tangeretin differentially affected the activities of cytochrome P540 1A and 2B isozymes in rat liver. Flavone and, to a lesser extent, tangeretin, increased activities of ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase, methoxyresorufin O-demethylase, and pentoxyresorufin O-dealkylase (PROD), whereas flavanone mainly enhanced PROD activity. Immunoblot analysis indicated that flavone and tangeretin increased cytochrome P450 1A1, 1A2, and 2B1,2 forms, whereas flavanone only enhanced the cytochrome P450 2B isozymes. Northern blot study showed that flavone and tangeretin increased the level of the cytochrome P450 1A2 mRNAs. The concentration of the other mRNAs were slightly or not affected by flavonoids. These results suggest that the induction of P450 1A2 by flavone and tangeretin might involve a transcriptional and/or post-transcriptional mechanism.

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.
