Leow JWH, Chan ECY. CYP2J2-mediated metabolism of arachidonic acid in heart: A review of its kinetics, inhibition and role in heart rhythm control. Pharmacol Ther 2024; 258:108637. [PMID: 38521247 DOI: 10.1016/j.pharmthera.2024.108637] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2 J2 (CYP2J2) is primarily expressed extrahepatically and is the predominant epoxygenase in human cardiac tissues. This highlights its key role in the metabolism of endogenous substrates. Significant scientific interest lies in cardiac CYP2J2 metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA), an omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid, to regioisomeric bioactive epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) metabolites that show cardioprotective effects including regulation of cardiac electrophysiology. From an in vitro perspective, the accurate characterization of the kinetics of CYP2J2 metabolism of AA including its inhibition and inactivation by drugs could be useful in facilitating in vitro-in vivo extrapolations to predict drug-AA interactions in drug discovery and development. In this review, background information on the structure, regulation and expression of CYP2J2 in human heart is presented alongside AA and EETs as its endogenous substrate and metabolites. The in vitro and in vivo implications of the kinetics of this endogenous metabolic pathway as well as its perturbation via inhibition and inactivation by drugs are elaborated. Additionally, the role of CYP2J2-mediated metabolism of AA to EETs in cardiac electrophysiology will be expounded.

Abstract
A brand-new enhanced starvation is put forward to trigger sensitized chemotherapy: blocking tumor-relation blood vessel formation and accelerating nutrient degradation and efflux. Following this concept, two cisplatin-like gemfibrozil-derived Pt(IV) prodrugs, GP and GPG, are synthesized. GP and GPG had nanomolar IC50 against A2780 cells and higher selectivity against normal cells than cisplatin. Bioactivity results confirmed that GP and GPG highly accumulated in cells and induced DNA damage, G2-phase arrest, and p53 expression. Besides, they could increase ROS and MDA levels and reduce mitochondrial membrane potential and Bcl-2 expression to promote cell apoptosis. In vivo, GP showed superior antitumor activity in A2780 tumor-bearing mice with no observable tissue damage. Mechanistic studies suggested that highly selective chemotherapy could be due to the new enhanced starvation effect: blocking vasculature formation via inhibiting the CYP2C8/EETs pathway and VEGFR2, NF-κB, and COX-2 expression and cholesterol efflux and degradation acceleration via increasing ABCA1 and PPARα.

Abstract
Immune responses during inflammation involve complex, well-coordinated lipid signaling pathways. Eicosanoids are a class of lipid signaling molecules derived from polyunsaturated fatty acids such as arachidonic acid and constitute a major network that controls inflammation and its subsequent resolution. Arachidonic acid is metabolized by enzymes in three different pathways to form a variety of lipid metabolites that can be either pro- or anti-inflammatory. Therefore, an understanding of the time-dependent gene expression, lipid metabolite profiles and cytokine profiles during the initial inflammatory response is necessary, as it will allow for the design of time-dependent therapeutics. Herein, we investigate the multi-level regulation of this process. After stimulating RAW 264.7 cells, a mouse-derived macrophage cell line commonly used to examine inflammatory responses, we examine the gene expression of 44 relevant lipid metabolizing enzymes from the different eicosanoid synthesizing classes. We also measure the formation of lipid metabolites and production of cytokines at selected time points. Results reveal a dynamic relationship between the time-course of inflammation dependent gene expression of the three eicosanoid synthesizing enzymes.

Cell Biol Int 2024; 48:31-45. [PMID: 37655528 DOI: 10.1002/cbin.12086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2023] [Revised: 07/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023]
Abstract
Arachidonic acid metabolism plays a crucial role in the development and progression of inflammatory and metabolic liver diseases. However, its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the expression of key genes involved in the arachidonic acid metabolism pathway in HCC using a combination of bioinformatics, proteomics and immunohistochemistry analyses. Through a comprehensive analysis of publicly available datasets, clinical HCC tissues, and tissue microarrays, we compared the expression of hepatic arachidonic acid metabolic genes. We observed significant downregulation of cytochrome P450 (CYP450) pathway genes at both the messenger RNA and protein levels in HCC tissues compared to normal liver tissues. Furthermore, we observed a strong correlation between the deregulation of the arachidonic acid metabolism CYP450 pathway and the pathological features and prognosis of HCC. Specifically, the expression of CYP2C8/9/18/19 was significantly correlated with pathological grade (r = -.484, p < .0001), vascular invasion (r = -.402, p < .0001), aspartate transaminase (r = -.246, p = .025), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (r = -.252, p = .022), alkaline phosphatase (r = -.342, p = .002), alpha-fetoprotein (r = -.311, p = .004) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (r = -.227, p = .047). Moreover, we discovered a significant association between CYP450 pathway activity and vascular invasion in HCC. Collectively, these data indicate that arachidonic acid CYP450 metabolic pathway deregulation is implicated in HCC progression and may be a potential predictive factor for early recurrence in patients with HCC.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most frequent neurological diseases affecting millions of people worldwide. While the majority of PD cases are of unknown origin (idiopathic), about 5%-10% are familial and linked to mutations in different known genes. However, there are also people with a genetic predisposition to PD who do not develop the disease. To elucidate factors leading to the manifestation of PD we compared the occurrence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in various cytochrome P450 (P450) genes in people with a genetic predisposition and suffering from PD (GPD) to that of people, who are genetically predisposed, but show no symptoms of the disease (GUN). We used the PPMI (Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative) database and the gene sequences of all 57 P450s as well as their three redox partners. Corresponding odds ratios (OR) and confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to assess the incidence of the various SNPs in the two groups of individuals and consequently their relation to PD. We identified for the first time SNPs that are significantly (up to 10fold!) over- or under-represented in GPD patients compared to GUN. SNPs with OR > 5 were found in 10 P450s being involved in eicosanoid, vitamin A and D metabolism as well as cholesterol degradation pointing to an important role of endogenous factors for the manifestation of PD clinical symptoms. Moreover, 12 P450s belonging to all P450 substrate classes as well as POR have SNPs that are significantly under-represented (OR < 0.2) in GPD compared to GUN, indicating a protective role of those SNPs and the corresponding P450s regarding disease advancement. To the best of our knowledge our data for the first time demonstrate an association between known PD predisposition genes and SNPs in other genes, shown here for different P450 genes and for their redox partner POR, which promote the manifestation of the disease in familial PD. Our results thus shed light onto the pathogenesis of PD, especially the switch from GUN to GPD and might further help to advance novel strategies for preventing the development or progression of the disease.

Rottlerin renders a selective and highly potent CYP2C8 inhibition to impede EET formation for implication in cancer therapy. Chem Biol Interact 2023; 380:110524.

Abstract
CYP2C8 is a crucial CYP isoform responsible for the metabolism of xenobiotics and endogenous molecules. CYP2C8 converts arachidonic acid to epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) that cause cancer progression. Rottlerin possess significant anticancer actions. However, information on its CYP inhibitory action is lacking in the literature and therefore, we aimed to explore the same using in silico, in vitro, and in vivo approaches. Rottlerin showed highly potent and selective CYP2C8 inhibition (IC50 < 0.1 μM) compared to negligible inhibition (IC50 > 10 μM) for seven other experimental CYPs in human liver microsomes (HLM) (in vitro) using USFDA recommended index reactions. Mechanistic studies reveal that rottlerin could reversibly (mixed-type) block CYP2C8. Molecular docking (in silico) results indicate a strong interaction could occur between rottlerin and the active site of human CYP2C8. Rottlerin boosted the plasma exposure of repaglinide and paclitaxel (CYP2C8 substrates) by delaying their metabolism using the rat model (in vivo). Multiple-dose treatment of rottlerin with CYP2C8 substrates lowered the CYP2C8 protein expression and up-regulated & down-regulated the mRNA for CYP2C12 and CYP2C11 (rat homologs), respectively, in rat liver tissue. Rottlerin substantially hindered the EET formation in HLM. Overall results of rottlerin on CYP2C8 inhibition and EET formation insinuate further exploration for targeted cancer therapy.

Abstract
The human cytochrome P450 2C8 is responsible for the metabolism of various clinical drugs as well as endogenous fatty acids. Allelic variations can significantly influence the metabolic outcomes. In this study, we characterize the functional effects of four nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms *15, *16, *17, and *18 alleles recently identified in cytochrome P450 2C8. The recombinant allelic variant enzymes V181I, I244V, I331T, and L361F were successfully expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. The steady-state kinetic analysis of paclitaxel 6-hydroxylation revealed a significant reduction in the catalytic activities of the V181I, I244V, and L361F variants. The calculated catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) of these variants was 5-26% of that of the wild-type enzyme. The reduced activities were due to both decreased kcat values and increased Km values of the variants. The epoxidation of arachidonic acid by the variants was analyzed. The L361F variant only exhibited 4-6% of the wild-type catalytic efficiency in ω-9- and ω-6-epoxidation reactions to produce 11,12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) and 14,15-EET, respectively. These reductions were mainly due to a decrease in the kcat value of the L361F variant. The binding titration analysis of paclitaxel and arachidonic acid showed that all variants had similar affinities to those of the wild-type (10-14 μM for paclitaxel and 20-49 μM for arachidonic acid). The constructed paclitaxel docking model of the variant enzyme suggests that the L361F substitution leads to the incorrect orientation of paclitaxel in the active site, with the 6'C of paclitaxel displaced from the productive catalytic location. This study suggests that individuals carrying the newly identified P450 2C8 allelic variations are likely to have an altered metabolism of clinical medicines and production of fatty acid-derived signal molecules.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most aggressive gliomas. New and more effective therapeutic approaches are being sought based on studies of the various mechanisms of GBM tumorigenesis, including the synthesis and metabolism of arachidonic acid (ARA), an omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). PubMed, GEPIA, and the transcriptomics analysis carried out by Seifert et al. were used in writing this paper. In this paper, we discuss in detail the biosynthesis of this acid in GBM tumors, with a special focus on certain enzymes: fatty acid desaturase (FADS)1, FADS2, and elongation of long-chain fatty acids family member 5 (ELOVL5). We also discuss ARA metabolism, particularly its release from cell membrane phospholipids by phospholipase A2 (cPLA2, iPLA2, and sPLA2) and its processing by cyclooxygenases (COX-1 and COX-2), lipoxygenases (5-LOX, 12-LOX, 15-LOX-1, and 15-LOX-2), and cytochrome P450. Next, we discuss the significance of lipid mediators synthesized from ARA in GBM cancer processes, including prostaglandins (PGE2, PGD2, and 15-deoxy-Δ12,14-PGJ2 (15d-PGJ2)), thromboxane A2 (TxA2), oxo-eicosatetraenoic acids, leukotrienes (LTB4, LTC4, LTD4, and LTE4), lipoxins, and many others. These lipid mediators can increase the proliferation of GBM cancer cells, cause angiogenesis, inhibit the anti-tumor response of the immune system, and be responsible for resistance to treatment.

Abstract
This manuscript reviews the CYP-mediated production of oxylipins and the current known function of these diverse set of oxylipins with emphasis on the detoxification CYPs in families 1-3. Our knowledge of oxylipin function has greatly increased over the past 3-7 years with new theories on stability and function. This includes a significant amount of new information on oxylipins produced from linoleic acid (LA) and the omega-3 PUFA-derived oxylipins such as α-linolenic acid (ALA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). However, there is still a lack of knowledge regarding the primary CYP responsible for producing specific oxylipins, and a lack of mechanistic insight for some clinical associations between outcomes and oxylipin levels. In addition, the role of CYPs in the production of oxylipins as signaling molecules for obesity, energy utilization, and development have increased greatly with potential interactions between diet, endocrinology, and pharmacology/toxicology due to nuclear receptor mediated CYP induction, CYP inhibition, and receptor interactions/crosstalk. The potential for diet-diet and diet-drug/chemical interactions is high given that these promiscuous CYPs metabolize a plethora of different endogenous and exogenous chemicals.

Nayeem MA, Hanif A, Geldenhuys WJ, Agba S. Crosstalk between adenosine receptors and CYP450-derived oxylipins in the modulation of cardiovascular, including coronary reactive hyperemic response. Pharmacol Ther 2022; 240:108213. [PMID: 35597366 DOI: 10.1016/j.pharmthera.2022.108213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2022] [Revised: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 05/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Adenosine is a ubiquitous endogenous nucleoside or autacoid that affects the cardiovascular system through the activation of four G-protein coupled receptors: adenosine A1 receptor (A1AR), adenosine A2A receptor (A2AAR), adenosine A2B receptor (A2BAR), and adenosine A3 receptor (A3AR). With the rapid generation of this nucleoside from cellular metabolism and the widespread distribution of its four G-protein coupled receptors in almost all organs and tissues of the body, this autacoid induces multiple physiological as well as pathological effects, not only regulating the cardiovascular system but also the central nervous system, peripheral vascular system, and immune system. Mounting evidence shows the role of CYP450-enzymes in cardiovascular physiology and pathology, and the genetic polymorphisms in CYP450s can increase susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). One of the most important physiological roles of CYP450-epoxygenases (CYP450-2C & CYP2J2) is the metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA) and linoleic acid (LA) into epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and epoxyoctadecaenoic acid (EpOMEs) which generally involve in vasodilation. Like an increase in coronary reactive hyperemia (CRH), an increase in anti-inflammation, and cardioprotective effects. Moreover, the genetic polymorphisms in CYP450-epoxygenases will change the beneficial cardiovascular effects of metabolites or oxylipins into detrimental effects. The soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is another crucial enzyme ubiquitously expressed in all living organisms and almost all organs and tissues. However, in contrast to CYP450-epoxygenases, sEH converts EETs into dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (DHETs), EpOMEs into dihydroxyoctadecaenoic acid (DiHOMEs), and others and reverses the beneficial effects of epoxy-fatty acids leading to vasoconstriction, reducing CRH, increase in pro-inflammation, increase in pro-thrombotic and become less cardioprotective. Therefore, polymorphisms in the sEH gene (Ephx2) cause the enzyme to become overactive, making it more vulnerable to CVDs, including hypertension. Besides the sEH, ω-hydroxylases (CYP450-4A11 & CYP450-4F2) derived metabolites from AA, ω terminal-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (19-, 20-HETE), lipoxygenase-derived mid-chain hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (5-, 11-, 12-, 15-HETEs), and the cyclooxygenase-derived prostanoids (prostaglandins: PGD2, PGF2α; thromboxane: Txs, oxylipins) are involved in vasoconstriction, hypertension, reduction in CRH, pro-inflammation and cardiac toxicity. Interestingly, the interactions of adenosine receptors (A2AAR, A1AR) with CYP450-epoxygenases, ω-hydroxylases, sEH, and their derived metabolites or oxygenated polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs or oxylipins) is shown in the regulation of the cardiovascular functions. In addition, much evidence demonstrates polymorphisms in CYP450-epoxygenases, ω-hydroxylases, and sEH genes (Ephx2) and adenosine receptor genes (ADORA1 & ADORA2) in the human population with the susceptibility to CVDs, including hypertension. CVDs are the number one cause of death globally, coronary artery disease (CAD) was the leading cause of death in the US in 2019, and hypertension is one of the most potent causes of CVDs. This review summarizes the articles related to the crosstalk between adenosine receptors and CYP450-derived oxylipins in vascular, including the CRH response in regular salt-diet fed and high salt-diet fed mice with the correlation of heart perfusate/plasma oxylipins. By using A2AAR-/-, A1AR-/-, eNOS-/-, sEH-/- or Ephx2-/-, vascular sEH-overexpressed (Tie2-sEH Tr), vascular CYP2J2-overexpressed (Tie2-CYP2J2 Tr), and wild-type (WT) mice. This review article also summarizes the role of pro-and anti-inflammatory oxylipins in cardiovascular function/dysfunction in mice and humans. Therefore, more studies are needed better to understand the crosstalk between the adenosine receptors and eicosanoids to develop diagnostic and therapeutic tools by using plasma oxylipins profiles in CVDs, including hypertensive cases in the future.

Crosstalk between Depression and Breast Cancer via Hepatic Epoxide Metabolism: A Central Comorbidity Mechanism. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27217269. [PMID: 36364213 PMCID: PMC9655600 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27217269] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2022] [Revised: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is a serious global challenge, and depression is one of the risk factors and comorbidities of BC. Recently, the research on the comorbidity of BC and depression has focused on the dysfunction of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and the persistent stimulation of the inflammatory response. However, the further mechanisms for comorbidity remain unclear. Epoxide metabolism has been shown to have a regulatory function in the comorbid mechanism with scattered reports. Hence, this article reviews the role of epoxide metabolism in depression and BC. The comprehensive review discloses the imbalance in epoxide metabolism and its downstream effect shared by BC and depression, including overexpression of inflammation, upregulation of toxic diols, and disturbed lipid metabolism. These downstream effects are mainly involved in the construction of the breast malignancy microenvironment through liver regulation. This finding provides new clues on the mechanism of BC and depression comorbidity, suggesting in particular a potential relationship between the liver and BC, and provides potential evidence of comorbidity for subsequent studies on the pathological mechanism.

Novel Unspecific Peroxygenase from Truncatella angustata Catalyzes the Synthesis of Bioactive Lipid Mediators. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10071267.

Abstract
Lipid mediators, such as epoxidized or hydroxylated eicosanoids (EETs, HETEs) of arachidonic acid (AA), are important signaling molecules and play diverse roles at different physiological and pathophysiological levels. The EETs and HETEs formed by the cytochrome P450 enzymes are still not fully explored, but show interesting anti-inflammatory properties, which make them attractive as potential therapeutic target or even as therapeutic agents. Conventional methods of chemical synthesis require several steps and complex separation techniques and lead only to low yields. Using the newly discovered unspecific peroxygenase TanUPO from the ascomycetous fungus Truncatella angustata, 90% regioselective conversion of AA to 14,15-EET could be achieved. Selective conversion of AA to 18-HETE, 19-HETE as well as to 11,12-EET and 14,15-EET was also demonstrated with known peroxygenases, i.e., AaeUPO, CraUPO, MroUPO, MweUPO and CglUPO. The metabolites were confirmed by HPLC-ELSD, MS1 and MS2 spectrometry as well as by comparing their analytical data with authentic standards. Protein structure simulations of TanUPO provided insights into its substrate access channel and give an explanation for the selective oxyfunctionalization of AA. The present study expands the scope of UPOs as they can now be used for selective syntheses of AA metabolites that serve as reference material for diagnostics, for structure-function elucidation as well as for therapeutic and pharmacological purposes.

Abstract
The CYP3A subfamily, which includes isoforms CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP3A7 in humans, plays important roles in the metabolism of various endogenous and exogenous substances. Gene and protein expression of CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP3A7 show large inter-individual differences, which are caused by many endogenous and exogenous factors. Inter-individual differences can cause negative outcomes, such as adverse drug events and disease development. Therefore, it is important to understand the variations in CYP3A expression caused by endo- and exogenous factors, as well as the variation in the metabolism and kinetics of endo- and exogenous substrates. In this review, we summarize the factors regulating CYP3A expression, such as bile acids, hormones, microRNA, inflammatory cytokines, drugs, environmental chemicals, and dietary factors. In addition, variations in CYP3A expression under pathological conditions, such as coronavirus disease 2019 and liver diseases, are described as examples of the physiological effects of endogenous factors. We also summarize endogenous and exogenous substrates metabolized by CYP3A isoforms, such as cholesterol, bile acids, hormones, arachidonic acid, vitamin D, and drugs. The relationship between the changes in the kinetics of these substrates and the toxicological effects in our bodies are discussed. The usefulness of these substrates and metabolites as endogenous biomarkers for CYP3A activity is also discussed. Notably, we focused on discrimination between CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP3A7 to understand inter-individual differences in CYP3A expression and function.

Abstract
A Template system for a prediction of human CYP2E1-mediated reactions (Drug Metab Rev 2011) has been refined with the introduction of ideas of Trigger-residue and the residue-initiated movement of ligands in the active site. The refined system also includes ideas of bi-molecule binding and angled-placement, which allow to sit diverse types of ligands on Template. With the use of these ideas in common with other Template systems for human CYP1A1, CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 (Drug Metab Pharmacokinet 2016, 2017, 2019, and 2020), 349 reactions of 192 distinct chemicals published as CYP2E1 ligands were examined in the refined system. Verifications of good and poor substrates, regioselectivity and also inhibitory interaction were available faithfully for these ligands from their placements on the refined Template and rules for interaction modes, accompanied with their deciphering information to lead to the judgements. The refined CYP2E1 Template system will thus offer more reliable estimations of human CYP2E1 catalysis toward ligands of diverse structures.

Abstract
The human genome includes four cytochrome P450 2C subfamily enzymes, and CYP2C8 has generated research interest because it is subject to drug-drug interactions and various polymorphic outcomes. To address the structure-functional complexity of CYP2C8, its catalytic activity was studied using a directed evolution analysis. Consecutive rounds of random mutagenesis and screening using 6-methoxy-luciferin produced two mutants, which displayed highly increased luciferase activity. Wild-type and selected mutants were expressed on a large scale and purified. The expression levels of the D349Y and D349Y/V237A mutants were ~310 and 460 nmol per liter of culture, respectively. The steady-state kinetic analysis of paclitaxel 6α-hydroxylation showed that the mutants exhibited a 5-7-fold increase in kcat values and a 3-5-fold increase in catalytic efficiencies (kcat/KM). In arachidonic acid epoxidation, two mutants exhibited a 30-150-fold increase in kcat values and a 40-110-fold increase in catalytic efficiencies. The binding titration analyses of paclitaxel and arachidonic acid showed that the V237A mutation had a lower Kd value, indicating a tighter substrate-binding affinity. The structural analysis of CYP2C8 indicated that the D349Y mutation was close enough to the putative binding domain of the redox partner; the increase in catalytic activity could be partially attributed to the enhancement of the P450 coupling efficiency or electron transfer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Data from clinical research suggest that certain probiotic bacterial strains have the potential to modulate colonic inflammation. Nonetheless, these data differ between studies due to the probiotic bacterial strains used and the poor knowledge of their mechanisms of action. DESIGN By mass-spectrometry, we identified and quantified free long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) in probiotics and assessed the effect of one of them in mouse colitis. RESULTS Among all the LCFAs quantified by mass spectrometry in Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN), a probiotic used for the treatment of multiple intestinal disorders, the concentration of 3-hydroxyoctadecaenoic acid (C18-3OH) was increased in EcN compared with other E. coli strains tested. Oral administration of C18-3OH decreased colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium in mice. To determine whether other bacteria composing the microbiota are able to produce C18-3OH, we targeted the gut microbiota of mice with prebiotic fructooligosaccharides (FOS). The anti-inflammatory properties of FOS were associated with an increase in colonic C18-3OH concentration. Microbiota analyses revealed that the concentration of C18-3OH was correlated with an increase in the abundance in Allobaculum, Holdemanella and Parabacteroides. In culture, Holdemanella biformis produced high concentration of C18-3OH. Finally, using TR-FRET binding assay and gene expression analysis, we demonstrated that the C18-3OH is an agonist of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma. CONCLUSION The production of C18-3OH by bacteria could be one of the mechanisms implicated in the anti-inflammatory properties of probiotics. The production of LCFA-3OH by bacteria could be implicated in the microbiota/host interactions.

Human Family 1-4 cytochrome P450 enzymes involved in the metabolic activation of xenobiotic and physiological chemicals: an update. Arch Toxicol 2021; 95:395-472.

Abstract
This is an overview of the metabolic activation of drugs, natural products, physiological compounds, and general chemicals by the catalytic activity of cytochrome P450 enzymes belonging to Families 1-4. The data were collected from > 5152 references. The total number of data entries of reactions catalyzed by P450s Families 1-4 was 7696 of which 1121 (~ 15%) were defined as bioactivation reactions of different degrees. The data were divided into groups of General Chemicals, Drugs, Natural Products, and Physiological Compounds, presented in tabular form. The metabolism and bioactivation of selected examples of each group are discussed. In most of the cases, the metabolites are directly toxic chemicals reacting with cell macromolecules, but in some cases the metabolites formed are not direct toxicants but participate as substrates in succeeding metabolic reactions (e.g., conjugation reactions), the products of which are final toxicants. We identified a high level of activation for three groups of compounds (General Chemicals, Drugs, and Natural Products) yielding activated metabolites and the generally low participation of Physiological Compounds in bioactivation reactions. In the group of General Chemicals, P450 enzymes 1A1, 1A2, and 1B1 dominate in the formation of activated metabolites. Drugs are mostly activated by the enzyme P450 3A4, and Natural Products by P450s 1A2, 2E1, and 3A4. Physiological Compounds showed no clearly dominant enzyme, but the highest numbers of activations are attributed to P450 1A, 1B1, and 3A enzymes. The results thus show, perhaps not surprisingly, that Physiological Compounds are infrequent substrates in bioactivation reactions catalyzed by P450 enzyme Families 1-4, with the exception of estrogens and arachidonic acid. The results thus provide information on the enzymes that activate specific groups of chemicals to toxic metabolites.

Abstract
Conclusions from previously reported articles have revealed that many commonly used pharmaceutical excipients, known to be pharmacologically inert, show effects on drug transporters and/or metabolic enzymes. Thus, the pharmacokinetics (absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination) of active pharmaceutical ingredients are possibly altered because of their transport and metabolism modulation from the incorporated excipients. The aim of this review is to present studies on the interaction of various commonly-used excipients on pre-systemic metabolism by CYP450 enzymes. Excipients such as surfactants, polymers, fatty acids and solvents are discussed. Based on all the reported outcomes, the most potent inhibitors were found to be surfactants and the least effective were organic solvents. However, there are many factors that can influence the inhibition of CYP450, for instance type of excipient, concentration of excipient, type of CYP450 isoenzyme, incubation condition, etc. Such evidence will be very useful in dosage form design, so that the right formulation can be designed to maximize drug bioavailability, especially for poorly bioavailable drugs.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) epoxygenases are a special subset of heme-containing CYP enzymes capable of performing the epoxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and the metabolism of xenobiotics. This dual functionality positions epoxygenases along a metabolic crossroad. Therefore, structure-function studies are critical for understanding their role in bioactive oxy-lipid synthesis, drug-PUFA interactions, and for designing therapeutics that directly target the epoxygenases. To better exploit CYP epoxygenases as therapeutic targets, there is a need for improved understanding of epoxygenase structure-function. Of the characterized epoxygenases, human CYP2J2 stands out as a potential target because of its role in cardiovascular physiology. In this review, the early research on the discovery and activity of epoxygenases is contextualized to more recent advances in CYP epoxygenase enzymology with respect to PUFA and drug metabolism. Additionally, this review employs CYP2J2 epoxygenase as a model system to highlight both the seminal works and recent advances in epoxygenase enzymology. Herein we cover CYP2J2's interactions with PUFAs and xenobiotics, its tissue-specific physiological roles in diseased states, and its structural features that enable epoxygenase function. Additionally, the enumeration of research on CYP2J2 identifies the future needs for the molecular characterization of CYP2J2 to enable a new axis of therapeutic design.

Abstract
The products of the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP)-catalyzed oxidation of arachidonic acid (AA), that is, epoxy- and hydroxy-fatty acids, play a crucial role in the homeostasis of several physiological processes. In a liver microsome-based multienzyme assay using AA as natural substrate, we investigated how polyphenols inhibit different oxylipin-forming CYP in parallel but independently from each other. The ω-hydroxylating CYP4F2 and CYP4A11 were investigated, as well as the epoxidizing CYP2C-subfamily and CYP3A4 along with the (ω-n)-hydroxylating CYP1A1 and CYP2E1. The oxylipin formation was inhibited by several polyphenols with a remarkable selectivity and a potency comparable to known CYP inhibitors. The flavone apigenin inhibited the epoxidation, ω-hydroxylation, and (ω-n)-hydroxylation of AA with IC50 values of 4.4-9.8, 2.9-10, and 10-25 μM, respectively. Other flavones such as wogonin selectively inhibited CYP1A1-catalyzed (ω-n)-hydroxylation with an IC50 value of 0.10-0.22 μM, while the isoflavone genistein was a selective ω-hydroxylase inhibitor (IC50: 5.5-46 μM). Of note, the flavanone naringenin and the anthocyanidin perlargonidin did not inhibit CYPs of the AA cascade. Moderate permeability of apigenin as tested in the Caco-2 model of intestinal absorption (Papp: 4.5 ± 1 × 10-6 cm/s) and confirmation of the inhibition of 20-HETE formation by apigenin in the colorectal cancer-derived cell line HCT 116 (IC50: 1.5-8.8 μM) underline the possible in vivo relevance of these effects. Further research is needed to better understand how polyphenols impact human health by this newly described molecular mode of action.

Abstract
Oxylipins derived from the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) act as important paracrine and autocrine signaling molecules. A subclass of oxylipins, the eicosanoids, have a broad range of physiological outcomes in inflammation, the immune response, cardiovascular homeostasis, and cell growth regulation. Consequently, eicosanoids are implicated in the pathophysiology of various diseases, most notably cancer, where eicosanoid mediated signaling is involved in tumor development, progression, and angiogenesis. Cytochrome P450s (CYPs) are a superfamily of heme monooxygenases generally involved in the clearance of xenobiotics while a subset of isozymes oxidize PUFAs to eicosanoids. Several eicosanoid forming CYPs are overexpressed in tumors, elevating eicosanoid levels and suggesting a key function in tumorigenesis and progression of tumors in the lung, breast, prostate, and kidney. This review summarizes the current understanding of CYPs' involvement in solid tumor etiology and progression providing supporting public data for gene expression from The Cancer Genome Atlas.

Abstract
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are synthetized from arachidonic acid by the action of members of the CYP2C and CYP2J subfamilies of cytochrome P450 (CYPs). The effects of EETs on cardiovascular function, the nervous system, the kidney and metabolic disease have been reviewed. In the lungs, the presence of these CYPs and EETs has been documented. In general, EETs play a beneficial role in this essential tissue. Among the most important effects of EETs in the lungs are the induction of vasorelaxation in the bronchi, the stimulation of Ca2+-activated K+ channels, the induction of vasoconstriction of pulmonary arteries, anti-inflammatory effects induced by asthma, and protection against infection or exposure to chemical substances such as cigarette smoke. EETs also participate in tissue regeneration, but on the downside, they are possibly involved in the progression of lung cancer. More research is necessary to design therapies with EETs for the treatment of lung disease.

Ren X, Zhu Y, Xie L, Zhang M, Gao L, He H. Yunnan Baiyao diminishes lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation in osteoclasts. J Food Biochem 2020; 44:e13182. [PMID: 32189353 DOI: 10.1111/jfbc.13182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2019] [Revised: 01/20/2020] [Accepted: 01/21/2020] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
Yunnan Baiyao (YNBY) has been refined for hundreds of years and has become a treasure of proprietary Chinese medicine that has significant curative effects in the field of hemostasis, blood circulation, and callus. In past years, YNBY has been demonstrated to play an anti-inflammatory role in bone-related diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis. However, the osteoclasts are multinucleated giant cells that resorb bone and participate in the occurrence, development, and progression of these bone-related diseases. Previous studies have reported that the inflammatory function is closely associated with arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism, as well as some inflammatory-related pathways, including the nuclear factor кB (NF-кB), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and Wnt5a pathways. Therefore, we speculated that the anti-inflammatory effect of YNBY might be associated with the NF-кB, MAPK, and Wnt5a pathways. In order to further excavate the anti-inflammatory roles of YNBY, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) with an optimal concentration of 1,000 pg/ml was used to induce inflammation in osteoclasts. Our results showed that YNBY with a time- and dose-dependent method decreased the concentration of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the expression levels of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), COX-2, 5-lipoxygenase, and prostaglandin E2. Moreover, it was found that COX-2 was the target gene regulated by YNBY. Finally, using NF-кB and MAPK pathway inhibitors or miRNA101b (involved in the Wnt5a pathway) in tandem with YNBY and the results exhibited that these groups caused a reduction in COX-1 and COX-2 expression, indicating that the anti-inflammatory function of YNBY might directly affect the NF-кB, MAPK, and Wnt5a pathways. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Yunnan Baiyao (YNBY) is mainly extracted from precious Chinese medicines such as Panax notoginseng, borneol, musk, and yam and has a wide range of clinical applications. It is not only used to treat various types of traumatic injuries, but also used for upper gastrointestinal bleeding and wound ulcers, neonatal umbilitis, recurrent oral ulcers, esophagitis, bacterial dysentery, and so on. Although the detailed mechanism of action is not clear at present, it is believed that this is related to its anti-inflammatory, hemostatic, and immune-enhancing effects. Many bone-related diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis, are regarded to be intimately related to the inflammatory reaction. Thus, this study aimed to explore the underlying mechanisms of YNBY at anti-inflammatory roles. And our results suggested that YNBY directly affected the inflammatory cytokines and AA metabolic products which referred to the NF-кB, MAPK, and Wnt5a pathways, as well as AA metabolism, respectively. Hence, the practical applications of YNBY are the anti-inflammatory effects used to treat for bone-related diseases.

J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol 2020; 197:105504. [PMID: 31682937 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsbmb.2019.105504] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2019] [Revised: 09/22/2019] [Accepted: 10/22/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
For a long time, orally ingested vitamin D was assumed to enter the body exclusively via simple passive diffusion. Recent data from in vitro experiments have described Niemann-Pick C1-like protein 1 (Npc1l1) as an important sterol transporter for vitamin D absorption. However, short-term applications of ezetimibe, which inhibits Npc1l1, were not associated with reduced vitamin D uptake in animals and humans. The current study aimed to elucidate the effect of long-term inhibition of Npc1l1 by ezetimibe on the uptake and storage of orally administered triple deuterated vitamin D3 (vitamin D3-d3). Therefore, 30 male wild-type mice were randomly assigned into three groups and received diets with 25 μg/kg of vitamin D3-d3 that contained 0 (control group), 50 or 100 mg/kg ezetimibe for six weeks. Mice fed diets with 50 or 100 mg/kg ezetimibe had lower circulating levels of cholesterol than control mice (-12 %, -15 %, P < 0.01). In contrast, the concentrations of 7-dehydrocholesterol in serum (P < 0.001) and liver (P < 0.05) were higher in mice treated with ezetimibe than in control mice, indicating an increased sterol synthesis to compensate for cholesterol reduction. Long-term application of ezetimibe significantly reduced the concentrations of vitamin D3-d3 in the serum and tissues of mice. The magnitude of vitamin D3 reduction was comparable between the two ezetimibe groups. In comparison to the control group, mice treated with ezetimibe had lower concentrations of deuterated vitamin D3 compared with the control group in serum (62 %, P < 0.001), liver (79 %, P < 0.001), kidney (54 %, P < 0.001), adipose tissues (55 %, P < 0.001) and muscle (41 %, P < 0.001). Surprisingly, the serum concentration of deuterated 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 was higher in the group fed 100 mg/kg ezetimibe than in the control group (P < 0.05). The protein expression of the vitamin D hydroxylases Cyp2r1, Cyp27a1, Cyp3a11, Cyp24a1 and Cyp2j3 in liver and Cyp27b1 and Cyp24a1 in kidney remained largely unaffected by ezetimibe. To conclude, Npc1l1 appears to be crucial for the uptake of orally ingested vitamin D because long-term inhibition of Npc1l1 by ezetimibe strongly reduced the levels of deuterium-labeled vitamin D in the body; the observed rise in deuterated 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in serum of these mice can not be explained by the expression levels of the key enzymes involved in vitamin D hydroxylation.

Abstract
Dronedarone and amiodarone are structurally similar antiarrhythmic drugs. Dronedarone worsens cardiac adverse effects with unknown causes while amiodarone has no cardiac adversity. Dronedarone induces preclinical mitochondrial toxicity in rat liver and exhibits clinical hepatotoxicity. Here, we further investigated the relative potential of the antiarrhythmic drugs in causing mitochondrial injury in cardiomyocytes. Differentiated rat H9c2 cardiomyocytes were treated with dronedarone, amiodarone, and their respective metabolites namely N-desbutyldronedarone (NDBD) and N-desethylamiodarone (NDEA). Intracellular ATP content, mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm), and inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT1) activity and arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism were measured in H9c2 cells. Inhibition of electron transport chain (ETC) activities and uncoupling of ETC were further studied in isolated rat heart mitochondria. Dronedarone, amiodarone, NDBD and NDEA decreased intracellular ATP content significantly (IC50 = 0.49, 1.84, 1.07, and 0.63 µM, respectively) and dissipated Δψm potently (IC50 = 0.5, 2.94, 12.8, and 7.38 µM, respectively). Dronedarone, NDBD, and NDEA weakly inhibited CPT1 activity while amiodarone (IC50 > 100 µM) yielded negligible inhibition. Only dronedarone inhibited AA metabolism to its regioisomeric epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) consistently and potently. NADH-supplemented ETC activity was inhibited by dronedarone, amiodarone, NDBD and NDEA (IC50 = 3.07, 5.24, 11.94, and 16.16 µM, respectively). Cytotoxicity, ATP decrease and Δψm disruption were ameliorated via exogenous pre-treatment of H9c2 cells with 11, 12-EET and 14, 15-EET. Our study confirmed that dronedarone causes mitochondrial injury in cardiomyocytes by perturbing Δψm, inhibiting mitochondrial complex I, uncoupling ETC and dysregulating AA-EET metabolism. We postulate that cardiac mitochondrial injury is one potential contributing factor to dronedarone-induced cardiac failure exacerbation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to explore the association of CYP3A5, ABCB1, and CYP2C8 polymorphisms with the risk of developing early kidney impairment in Chinese liver transplant recipients receiving tacrolimus. METHODS CYP3A5, ABCB1, and CYP2C8 polymorphisms were genotyped in the Chinese liver transplant recipients in the study receiving tacrolimus for at least 2 years by polymerase chain reaction and high-resolution melting method. Serum cystatin C and urine microprotein (α1-microglobulin, microalbumin, transferrin, and immunoglobulin) of liver transplant recipients were used to determine both the status of early renal injury and the lesion part. RESULTS We documented 3 genotypes of CYP3A5 and ABCB1 and only 2 genotypes of CYP2C8 in our cohort. The levels of cystatin C and all 4 indicators of the urine microprotein in the recipient group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < .05). The concentrations of transferrin differed significantly in each CYP3A5 genotype group (P < .05). Based on diverse CYP2C8 genotypes, we divided all the recipients into 2 groups: CYP2C8*1*1 group and CYP2C8*3*1 group. The concentrations of α1-microglobulin and cystatin C differed significantly between the 2 groups (P < .05). For CYP2C8*3, the positive predictive value is 68.5% and negative predictive value is 70.2%. For CYP3A5*3, the positive predictive value is 55.3% and negative predictive value is 60.4%. CONCLUSIONS CYP2C8*3 and CYP3A5*3 appear to be predictive of risk of tacrolimus-induced early renal impairment. CYP3A5*3 was associated with the risk of early renal glomerular lesion, while CYP2C8*3 was associated with the risk of the tubulointerstitial injury. ABCB1 polymorphisms (both C3435T and C1236T) were not associated with the early renal injury in liver transplant recipients.

Abstract
1. Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), metabolites of arachidonic acid (AA) via cytochrome P450s, have a protective effect on the cardiovascular system involving vasodilation. We have previously demonstrated that telmisartan (TEL) inhibits EETs production from AA in vitro. 2. The objectives of the study were to examine the inhibitory effect of fluvastatin (FLU), an inhibitor of CYP2C9, and the combined effect of TEL and FLU on the production of EETs using human liver microsomes. The combined effect of TEL and FLU was evaluated using two methods, the fixed concentration method and the fixed ratio method. 3. FLU significantly reduced total eicosanoids (sum of EETs and their subsequent metabolites dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids) production at > 0.25 µM. The results of the fixed concentration method indicated that the addition of the other inhibitor resulted in significant reduction of the production of total eicosanoids in a concentration-dependent manner. In the fixed ratio method, the combination of TEL and FLU over all concentration ratios tested did not produce a horizontal shift in the dose response curves. 4. Our results showing an additive combined effect of TEL and FLU on AA metabolism, suggest that concomitant treatment with TEL and FLU would theoretically affect the vascular tone mediated by EETs from AA.

Role of the CYP3A4-mediated 11,12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid pathway in the development of tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer. Oncotarget 2017; 8:71054-71069. [PMID: 29050342 PMCID: PMC5642617 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.20329] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2016] [Accepted: 06/27/2017] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) production via cytochrome P450 (CYP) epoxygenases closely correlates with the progression of breast cancer. However, its role in the development of chemoresistant breast cancers has yet to be elucidated. Here, we found that CYP3A4 expression and its epoxy-product, 11,12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (11,12-EET) was enhanced in tamoxifen (TAM)-resistant MCF-7 (TAMR-MCF-7) breast cancer cells compared to control MCF-7 cells. Treatment of TAMR-MCF-7 cells with ketoconazole and azamulin (selective CYP3A4 inhibitors) or 14,15-epoxyeicosa-5(Z)-enoic acid (14,15-EEZE, an EET antagonist) inhibited cellular proliferation and recovered the sensitivity to 4-hydroxytamoxifen. Chick chorioallantoic membrane and trans-well migration analyses revealed that the enhanced angiogenic, tumorigenic, and migration intensities of TAMR-MCF-7 cells were also significantly suppressed by ketoconazole and 14,15-EEZE. We previously reported that Pin1, a peptidyl prolyl isomerase, is a crucial regulator for higher angiogenesis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition characteristics of TAMR-MCF-7 cells. EET inhibition suppressed E2F1-dependent Pin1 gene transcription, and Pin1 silencing also blocked cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and migration of TAMR-MCF-7 cells. Our findings suggest that the CYP3A4-mediated EET pathway represents a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer.

Abstract
CYP2C9 is a human microsomal cytochrome P450c (CYP). Much of the variation in CYP2C9 levels and activity can be attributed to polymorphisms of this gene. Wild-type CYP2C9 and mutants were coexpressed with NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase in Escherichia coli. The hydroxylase activities toward 7-ethoxycoumarin, flavanone and steroids were examined. Six CYP2C9 variants showed Soret peaks (450 nm) typical of P450 in reduced CO-difference spectra. CYP2C9.38 had the highest 7-ethoxycoumarin de-ethylase activity. All the CYP2C9 variants showed lower flavanone 6-hydroxylation activities than CYP2C9.1 (the wild-type). CYP2C9.38 showed higher activities in testosterone 6β-hydroxylation, progesterone 6β-/16α-hydroxylation, estrone 11α-hydroxylation and estradiol 6α-hydroxylation than CYP2C9.1. CYP2C9.40 showed higher testosterone 17-oxidase activity than CYP2C9.1; CYP2C9.8 showed higher estrone 16α-hydroxylase activity and CYP2C9.12 showed higher estrone 11α-hydroxylase activity. CYP2C9.9 and CYP2C9.10 showed similar activities to CYP2C9.1. These results indicate that the substrate specificity of CYP2C9.9 and CYP2C9.10 was not changed, but CYP2C9.8, CYP2C9.12 and CYP2C9.40 showed different substrate specificity toward steroids compared with CYP2C9.1; and especially CYP2C9.38 displayed diverse substrate specificities towards 7-ethoxycoumarin and steroids.

Abstract
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are important vasoactive products of arachidonic acid metabolism with a wide range of biological actions in the cardiovascular system. The present study investigated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of genes coding cytochrome P450 2C subfamily, enzymes involved in biosynthesis of EETs, are associated with the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). A total of 1255 unrelated Russian subjects comprising 561 patients with angiographically diagnosed CHD and 694 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects were included in the study. DNA samples from all study participants were genotyped for six common SNPs rs7909236, rs1934953 of CYP2C8, rs9332242, rs4918758 and rs61886769 of CYP2C9 and rs4244285 of CYP2C19 using by the Mass-ARRAY 4 system. SNP rs4918758 of CYP2C9 was associated with decreased risk of CHD (codominant model) at a borderline significance with odds ratio adjusted for sex and age 0.61 (95% CI: 0.41-0.92, P=0.038, Q=0.20). SNP rs9332242 of CYP2C9 showed a trend towards association with increased CHD risk in cigarette smokers (P=0.049, Q=0.29). Log-likelihood ratio test (LRT) pointed out epistatic interactions between rs9332242 and rs61886769 of CYP2C9 (codominant model, Pinteraction=0.02), however, this P-value did not survive after correction for multiple tests. Bioinformatic analysis revealed a regulatory potential for a majority of the investigated SNPs. Our preliminary results demonstrate that polymorphisms of genes encoding CYP2C subfamily represent potential genetic markers of CHD susceptibility. Further studies are required to substantiate the contribution of these genes to the disease risk.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450-mediated metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA) is an important pathway for the formation of eicosanoids. The ω-hydroxylation of AA generates significant levels of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) in various tissues. In the current review, we discussed the role of 20-HETE in the kidney, liver, lung, and brain during physiological and pathophysiological states. Moreover, we discussed the role of 20-HETE in tumor formation, metabolic syndrome and diabetes. In the kidney, 20-HETE is involved in modulation of preglomerular vascular tone and tubular ion transport. Furthermore, 20-HETE is involved in renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and polycystic kidney diseases. The role of 20-HETE in the liver is not clearly understood although it represents 50%-75% of liver CYP-dependent AA metabolism, and it is associated with liver cirrhotic ascites. In the respiratory system, 20-HETE plays a role in pulmonary cell survival, pulmonary vascular tone and tone of the airways. As for the brain, 20-HETE is involved in cerebral I/R injury. Moreover, 20-HETE has angiogenic and mitogenic properties and thus helps in tumor promotion. Several inhibitors and inducers of the synthesis of 20-HETE as well as 20-HETE analogues and antagonists are recently available and could be promising therapeutic options for the treatment of many disease states in the future.

Abstract
During the last 10-15 years, cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8 has emerged as an important drug-metabolizing enzyme. CYP2C8 is highly expressed in human liver and is known to metabolize more than 100 drugs. CYP2C8 substrate drugs include amodiaquine, cerivastatin, dasabuvir, enzalutamide, imatinib, loperamide, montelukast, paclitaxel, pioglitazone, repaglinide, and rosiglitazone, and the number is increasing. Similarly, many drugs have been identified as CYP2C8 inhibitors or inducers. In vivo, already a small dose of gemfibrozil, i.e., 10% of its therapeutic dose, is a strong, irreversible inhibitor of CYP2C8. Interestingly, recent findings indicate that the acyl-β-glucuronides of gemfibrozil and clopidogrel cause metabolism-dependent inactivation of CYP2C8, leading to a strong potential for drug interactions. Also several other glucuronide metabolites interact with CYP2C8 as substrates or inhibitors, suggesting that an interplay between CYP2C8 and glucuronides is common. Lack of fully selective and safe probe substrates, inhibitors, and inducers challenges execution and interpretation of drug-drug interaction studies in humans. Apart from drug-drug interactions, some CYP2C8 genetic variants are associated with altered CYP2C8 activity and exhibit significant interethnic frequency differences. Herein, we review the current knowledge on substrates, inhibitors, inducers, and pharmacogenetics of CYP2C8, as well as its role in clinically relevant drug interactions. In addition, implications for selection of CYP2C8 marker and perpetrator drugs to investigate CYP2C8-mediated drug metabolism and interactions in preclinical and clinical studies are discussed.

Abstract
Variability in activity of CYP2C9, which is involved in the metabolism of approximately 15% of current therapeutic drugs, is an important contributor to interindividual differences in drug response. To evaluate the functional alternations of CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3, CYP2C9*8, CYP2C9*11 and CYP2C9*31, identified in our previous study in Chinese Han population, allelic variants as well as the wild-type CYP2C9 were transiently expressed in COS-7 cells. Kinetic parameters (Km, Vmax, and Clint) for S-warfarin 7-hydroxylation by these recombinant CYP2C9s were determined. Relative to CYP2C9.1, recombinant CYP2C9.3 and CYP2C9.11 exhibited significantly higher Km values, and all allelic variants showed significantly decreased Vmax and Clint values. Among all allelic variants, catalytic activity of CYP2C9.3 and CYP2C9.11 reduced the most (8.2% and 9.8% of Clint ratio, respectively; P < 0.001). These findings should be useful for predicting the phenotype profiles of CYP2C9 in Chinese Han population, comparing the functional results of these alleles accurately, and finally optimizing pharmacotherapy of drug treatment.

Abstract
The objective was to examine uterine artery hemodynamics and maternal serum profiles in pregnant heifers supplemented with dietary melatonin (MEL) or no supplementation (CON). In addition, melatonin receptor-mediated responses in steroid metabolism were examined using a bovine endometrial epithelial culture system. Twenty singleton pregnant Holstein heifers were supplemented with 20 mg of melatonin (n = 10) or no melatonin supplementation (control; n = 10) from days 190 to 262 of gestation. Maternal measurements were recorded on days 180 (baseline), 210, 240, and 262 of gestation. Total uterine blood flow was increased by 25% in the MEL-treated heifers compared with the CON. Concentrations of progesterone were decreased in MEL vs CON heifers. Total serum antioxidant capacity was increased by 43% in MEL-treated heifers when compared with CON. Activity of cytochrome P450 1A, 2C, and superoxide dismutase was increased in bovine endometrial epithelial cells treated with melatonin, whereas the melatonin receptor antagonist, luzindole, negated the increase in cytochrome P450 2C activity. Moreover, estradiol or progesterone treatment altered bovine uterine melatonin receptor expression, which could potentiate the melatonin-mediated responses during late gestation. The observed increase in total uterine blood flow during melatonin supplementation could be related to its antioxidant properties. Compromised pregnancies are typically accompanied by increased oxidative stress; therefore, melatonin could serve as a therapeutic supplementation strategy. This could lead to further fetal programming implications in conjunction with offspring growth and development postnatally.

Abstract
Although the Hispanic population is continuously growing in the United States, they are underrepresented in pharmacogenetic studies. This review addresses the need for compiling available pharmacogenetic data in US Hispanics, discussing the prevalence of clinically relevant polymorphisms in pharmacogenes encoding for drug-metabolizing enzymes. CYP3A5*3 (0.245-0.867) showed the largest frequency in a US Hispanic population. A higher prevalence of CYP2C9*3, CYP2C19*4, and UGT2B7 IVS1+985 A>G was observed in US Hispanic vs. non-Hispanic populations. We found interethnic and intraethnic variability in frequencies of genetic polymorphisms for metabolizing enzymes, which highlights the need to define the ancestries of participants in pharmacogenetic studies. New approaches should be integrated in experimental designs to gain knowledge about the clinical relevance of the unique combination of genetic variants occurring in this admixed population. Ethnic subgroups in the US Hispanic population may harbor variants that might be part of multiple causative loci or in linkage-disequilibrium with functional variants. Pharmacogenetic studies in Hispanics should not be limited to ascertain commonly studied polymorphisms that were originally identified in their parental populations. The success of the Personalized Medicine paradigm will depend on recognizing genetic diversity between and within US Hispanics and the uniqueness of their genetic backgrounds.

Sex- and isoform-specific mechanism of neuroprotection by transgenic expression of P450 epoxygenase in vascular endothelium. Exp Neurol 2016; 279:75-85. [PMID: 26902473 DOI: 10.1016/j.expneurol.2016.02.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2015] [Revised: 02/07/2016] [Accepted: 02/15/2016] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cytochrome P450 epoxygenases (CYP) metabolize arachidonic acid to epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), which exhibit vasodilatory, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective actions in experimental cerebral ischemia. We evaluated the effect of endothelial-specific CYP overexpression on cerebral blood flow, inflammatory cytokine expression and tissue infarction after focal cerebral ischemia in transgenic mice. APPROACH AND RESULTS Male and female wild-type and transgenic mice overexpressing either human CYP2J2 or CYP2C8 epoxygenases in vascular endothelium under control of the Tie2 promoter (Tie2-CYP2J2 and Tie2-CYP2C8) were subjected to 60-min middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Microvascular cortical perfusion was monitored during vascular occlusion and reperfusion using laser-Doppler flowmetry and optical imaging. Infarct size and inflammatory cytokines were measured at 24h of reperfusion by TTC and real-time quantitative PCR, respectively. Infarct size was significantly reduced in both Tie2-CYP2J2 and Tie2-CYP2C8 transgenic male mice compared to corresponding WT male mice (n=10 per group, p<0.05). Tie2-CYP2J2, but not Tie2-CYP2C8 male mice maintained higher blood flow during MCAO; however, both Tie2-CYP2J2 and Tie2-CYP2C8 had lower inflammatory cytokine expression after ischemia compared to corresponding WT males (n=10 per group for CBF and n=3 for cytokines, p<0.05). In females, a reduction in infarct was observed in the caudate-putamen, but not in the cortex or hemisphere as a whole and no differences were observed in blood flow between female transgenic and WT mice (n=10 per group). CONCLUSIONS Overexpression of CYP epoxygenases in vascular endothelial cells protects against experimental cerebral ischemia in male mice. The mechanism of protection is in part linked to enhanced blood flow and suppression of inflammation, and is both sex- and CYP isoform-specific.

Abstract
Background: In Southeast Asia and many parts of the world, herbal products are increasingly used in parallel with modern medicine. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of herbs commonly used in Southeast Asia on activity of cytochrome P450 2C8 (CYP2C8), an important human hepatic enzyme in drug metabolism. Materials and Methods: The selected herbs, such as Eurycoma longifolia Jack (ELJ), Labisia pumila (LP), Echinacea purpurea (EP), Andrographis paniculata (AP), and Ginkgo biloba (GB), were subjected to inhibition studies using an in vitro CYP2C8 activity marker, amodiaquine N-desethylase assay. Inhibition parameters, inhibitory concentration 50% (IC50), and Ki values were determined to study the potency and mode of inhibition. Results: All herbs inhibited CYP2C8 with the following order of potency: LP > ELJ > GB > AP > EP. LP and ELJ inhibited potently at Ki's of 2 and 4 times the Ki of quercetin, the positive control. The inhibition by LP was uncompetitive in nature as compared to competitive or mixed type inhibition observed with other herbs. GB exhibited moderate inhibitory effect at a Ki6 times larger than quercetin Ki. AP and EP, on the other hand, showed only weak inhibition. Conclusion: The herbs we chose represented the more commonly used herbs in Southeast Asia where collision of tradition and modernization in healthcare, if not properly managed, may lead to therapeutic misadventures. We conclude that concurrent consumption of some herbs, in particular, LP and ELJ, may have relevance in drug-herb interactions via CYP2C8 inhibition in vivo. SUMMARY Herbs are increasingly used in parallel with modern medicines nowadays. In this study five commonly used herbs in Southeast Asia region, ELJ, LP, EP, AP and GB, were investigated for their in vitro inhibitory potency on CYP2C8, an important drug-metaboliz-ing human hepatic enzyme. All herbs inhibited CYP2C8 activity marker, amodiaquine N-desethylation, with potency order of LP > ELJ > GB >AP > EP. LP, ELJ and GB exhibited Ki values of 2, 4 and 6 times the Ki of quercetin, the positive control, indicating potent to moderate degree of enzyme inhibition. AP and EP, on the other hand, showed only weak inhibition. In summary, concurrent consumption of some herbs especially LP and ELJ may have relevance in drug-herb interactions via CYP2C8 inhibition in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Zebrafish express five cytochrome P450 1 genes: CYP1A, CYP1B1, CYP1C1, CYP1C2, inducible by aryl hydrocarbon receptor agonists, and CYP1D1, a constitutively expressed CYP1A-like gene. We examined substrate selectivity of CYP1s expressed in yeast. METHODS CYP1s were expressed in W(R) yeast, engineered to over-express P450 reductase, via pYES/DEST52 and via pYeDP60. Microsomal fractions from transformed yeast were examined for activity with fluorogenic substrates, benzo[a]pyrene and testosterone. Modeling and docking approaches were used to further evaluate sites of oxidation on benzo[a]pyrene and testosterone. RESULTS CYP1s expressed in yeast dealkylated ethoxy-, methoxy-, pentoxy- and benzoxy-resorufin (EROD, MROD, PROD, BROD). CYP1A and CYP1C2 had the highest rates of EROD activity, while PROD and BROD activities were low for all five CYP1s. The relative rates of resorufin dealkylation by CYP1C1, CYP1C2 and CYP1D1 expressed via pYeDP60 were highly similar to relative rates obtained with pYES/DEST52-expressed enzymes. CYP1C1 and CYP1C2 dealkylated substituted coumarins and ethoxy-fluorescein-ethylester, while CYP1D1 did not. The CYP1Cs and CYP1D1 co-expressed with epoxide hydrolase oxidized BaP with different rates and product profiles, and all three produced BaP-7,8,9,10-tetrol. The CYP1Cs but not CYP1D1 metabolized testosterone to 6β-OH-testosterone. However, CYP1D1 formed an unidentified testosterone metabolite better than the CYP1Cs. Testosterone and BaP docked to CYP homology models with poses consistent with differing product profiles. CONCLUSIONS Yeast-expressed zebrafish CYP1s will be useful in determining further functionality with endogenous and xenobiotic compounds. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE Determining the roles of zebrafish CYP1s in physiology and toxicology depends on knowing the substrate selectivity of these enzymes.
