Abstract
Species difference in the induction of hepatic cytochrome P450 CYP1A subfamily enzymes by 2-methoxy-4-nitroaniline (2-MeO-4-NA) was investigated among male F344 rats, C57BL/6 Cr mice, and Hartley guinea pigs. All species of animals were treated with a single ip injection of 2-MeO-4-NA (0.44 mmol/kg body weight), and changes in levels of the mRNA and protein of hepatic cytochrome P4501A (CYP1A) subfamily enzymes were examined by the methods of RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. In addition, hepatic microsomal enzyme activities were measured using methoxyresorufin and ethoxyresorufin as substrates of CYP1A2 and CYP1A1, respectively. The overall results of the RT-PCR, Western blot, and measurement of the enzyme activity indicated that 2-MeO-4-NA-mediated induction of hepatic CYP1A subfamily enzymes, especially CYP1A2, occurred only in rats but not any other species of animals examined and that the species difference in the CYP1A induction was not necessarily correlated with that in pharmacokinetics of 2-MeO-4-NA. Furthermore, a luciferase reporter gene assay for screening of the ligands of arylhydrocarbon receptor (AhR) using a rat hepatic cell line suggested that 2-MeO-4-NA is not an AhR ligand. The present findings demonstrate for the first time the species difference in the 2-MeO-4-NA-mediated induction of hepatic CYP1A subfamily enzymes between rats and other rodents, mice and guinea pigs, and further propose an AhR-independent pathway for 2-MeO-4-NA-mediated induction in rats.

Abstract
We reported previously that 2-methoxy-4-nitroaniline (2-MeO-4-NA) is a selective inducer of cytochrome P4501A2 (CYP1A2) in the rat liver, and its molecular size is the smallest among known CYP1A2-selective inducers. In the present study, a structure-activity relationship on the CYP1A2-selective induction has been investigated using isomeric nitroanisidines and their related chemicals. Western blot analyses revealed that the chemicals removed a substituent (amino, methoxyl or nitro group) from a 2-MeO-4-NA molecule had no capacity for inducing CYP1A enzymes in rat livers. On the other hand, isomeric nitroanisidines such as 2-MeO-4-NA, 2-MeO-5-NA and 4-MeO-2-NA induced both CYP1A2 and CYP1A1 enzymes with different selectivities. As judged from the induced levels of CYP1A proteins, 2-MeO-4-NA (CYP1A2/CYP1A1 ratio; 9.5) and 4-MeO-2-NA (0.3) were the most selective inducers of CYP1A2 and CYP1A1, respectively, among the isomeric nitroanisidines (0.44 mmol/kg) used. The induced level of CYP1A2 protein was in the order 2-MeO-4-NA > 2-MeO-5-NA > 4-MeO-2-NA, although no significant difference was observed on their CYP1A2 mRNA level. On the contrary, increases in the levels of CYP1A1 mRNA and protein were in the order 4-MeO-2-NA > 2-MeO-5-NA > 2-MeO-4-NA. The present findings indicate that all three substituents (amino, methoxyl and nitro groups) are necessary components of nitroanisidines for induction of CYP1A enzymes, and also show that regio-isomeric positions of these substituents determine the selectivity in the induction of CYP1A enzymes.

Abstract
There exists a diversity of pathways in mammalian cells serving to activate primary aromatic amines. 1 N-Oxidative mixed-function turnover usually involves participation of the cytochrome P450 superfamily, while catalysis by the flavin-containing monooxygenases is restricted to a few amines capable of forming imine tautomers. Surprisingly, haemoglobin metabolizes cytotoxic and carcinogenic arylamines via a monooxygenase-like mechanism, but peroxygenase activity is also operative. 2 In extrahepatic tissues that exhibit only a low level of monooxygenases, peroxidative transformations, as are brought about by prostaglandin H synthase, myeloperoxidase or lactoperoxidase, predominate in amine activation. Non-mammalian peroxidases frequently used as model systems include horseradish peroxidase and chloroperoxidase. 3 Non-enzymatic, light-induced conversion of aromatic amines to free radical or N-oxy products proceeds either via direct photolysis of the nitrogenous compounds or through attack by lipid-derived reactive intermediates generated during irradiation. 4 The interplay of the various tissue-specific processes of arylamine activation serves to explain differences in susceptibility toward the biological actions of primary aromatic amines.

Abstract
Male F344 rats were treated with a chemical (aniline, nitrobenzene, 2-methoxy-p-phenylenediamine, 2-methoxy-4-nitroaniline or 2-methoxy-4-nitroazobenzene) produced by the azo-reduction and/or N-oxidation of 2-methoxy-4-amino-azo-benzene, a selective inducer of cytochrome P450IA2 (CYP1A2), and their effects on the induction of CYP1A enzymes in the liver were examined in terms of the protein and mRNA amounts. 2-Methoxy-4-nitroaniline and 2-methoxy-4-nitroazo-benzene, but not other compounds tested, induced CYP1A enzymes, especially CYP1A2, as assessed by Western blotting and Northern blotting. It is noteworthy that 2-methoxy-4-nitroaniline was more selective than 2-methoxy-4-aminoazobenzene for induction of CYP1A2, and it has the smallest molecular size among the known CYP1A2 inducers.

Abstract
Hyperplastic nodules of the liver were induced by treating male F344 rats with a combination of diethylnitrosamine and partial hepatectomy. The livers were examined for the expression of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, mainly CYP1A1 and CYP1A2; the amount and activity of the enzymes in the microsomes were assessed by enzymatic and immunological methods. Levels of CYP1A mRNAs were assayed by Northern blotting. In the liver bearing hyperplastic nodules, the total amount of microsomal CYP enzymes decreased to about 50% of the control. The microsomal activities for the CYP1A2-mediated activation of carcinogenic heterocyclic amines decreased to about 20% of the corresponding controls, in association with decreases in the levels of mRNA and protein of CYP1A2. Furthermore, the inducibility of CYP1A2 by CYP1A inducers such as 3-methoxy-4-aminoazobenzene and 3-methylcholanthrene was also decreased at the mRNA, protein and activity levels. On the other hand, CYP1A1 enzyme, which was undetectable in control rat liver, appeared in the liver bearing hyperplastic nodules, but its inducibility by a CYP1A inducer decreased slightly. The present findings indicated that individual CYP1A enzymes are differently regulated, and the expression of CYP1A2 is reduced preferentially in the liver bearing hyperplastic nodules.

Abstract
F344 rats were treated with an i.p. injection of 2-amino-6- methyldipyrido[1,2-a:3',2'-d]imidazole (Glu P-1) or 3-methoxy-4-aminoazobenzene (3-MeO-AAB) and examined for the formation of the DNA adduct in the liver. To examine the effect of pretreatment with a cytochrome P450 (CYP) inducer on the formation of DNA adduct, these rats were pretreated with 3-methylcholanthrene (MC; CYP1A1/1A2 inducer) or phenobarbital (PB; CYP2B inducer). Administration of Glu P-1 and 3-MeO-AAB gave 2 and 5 adducts, respectively, as determined by 32P-postlabeling assay. By Glu P-1 administration, pretreatment of rats with MC, but not with PB, increased the total amount of DNA adducts including 3 new adducts as minor products. In contrast, pretreatment of rats with PB increased the total amount of DNA adducts derived by 3-MeO-AAB. The increase of aromatic amine DNA adducts by pretreatment with a CYP inducer was proportional to the activity of induced CYP isozyme(s) responsible for the mutagenic activation of each aromatic amine.

Abstract
Rats, mice, hamsters and guinea pigs were given an i.p. injection of 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenyl-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP), a protein-derived pyrolysate component present in cooked foods, and inductions of cytochrome P450 (P450) in the liver and kidney of these animals were examined. The activity and amount of P450s corresponding to the rat P450IA1 and P450IA2 were assessed by means of a bacterial mutation test using 3 carcinogenic heterocyclic aromatic amines including PhIP as substrates and by Western blotting with a monoclonal antibody reactive with both P450IA1 and P450IA2. In rats, PhIP induced P450IA1, P450IA2 and a new but unspecified P450 isozyme in the liver, and induced P450IA1 in the kidney. However, PhIP induced none of these P450 isozymes in mice, hamsters and guinea pigs.

Abstract
The expressions of hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450 isozymes in male rats, mice, hamsters and guinea pigs were studied comparatively with or without an ip injection of a cytochrome P-450 inducer. The activity and quantity of microsomal cytochrome P-450 isozymes were determined respectively by a bacterial mutation assay with Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and immunochemical assays using monoclonal antibodies against rat cytochrome P-450 isozymes. 3-Methoxy-4-aminoazobenzene (3-MeO-AAB), 2-amino-3-methyl-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole acetate (MeA alpha C) and 3-methylcholanthrene were used as cytochrome P-450 inducers, and 7 carcinogenic aromatic amines including 3-MeO-AAB and MeA alpha C were used as substrates for the mutation assay. By means of these assays, we examined the species differences among rodents in the activity and induction rate of hepatic cytochrome P-450 isozymes responsible for the mutagenic activation of carcinogenic aromatic amines.

Abstract
We have previously shown that uroporphyrinogen is oxidized to uroporphyrin by microsomes (microsomal fractions) from 3-methylcholanthrene-pretreated chick embryo liver [Sinclair, Lambrecht & Sinclair (1987) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 146, 1324-1329]. We report here that a specific antibody to chick liver methylcholanthrene-induced cytochrome P-450 (P-450) inhibited both uroporphyrinogen oxidation and ethoxyresorufin O-de-ethylation in chick-embryo liver microsomes. 3-Methylcholanthrene-pretreatment of rats and mice markedly increased uroporphyrinogen oxidation in hepatic microsomes as well as P-450-mediated ethoxyresorufin de-ethylation. In rodent microsomes, uroporphyrinogen oxidation required the addition of NADPH, whereas chick liver microsomes required both NADPH and 3,3',4,4'-tetrachlorobiphenyl. Treatment of rats with methylcholanthrene, hexachlorobenzene and o-aminoazotoluene increased uroporphyrinogen oxidation and P-450d, whereas phenobarbital did not increase either. The contribution of hepatic P-450c and P-450d to uroporphyrinogen oxidation and ethoxyresorufin O-de-ethylation in methylcholanthrene-induced microsomes was assessed by using specific antibodies to P-450c and P-450d. Uroporphyrinogen oxidation by methylcholanthrene-induced rat liver microsomes was inhibited up to 75% by specific antibodies to P-450d, but not by specific antibodies to P-450c. In contrast, ethoxyresorufin de-ethylation was inhibited only 20% by anti-P450d but 70% by anti-P450c. Methylcholanthrene-induced kidney microsomes which contain P-450c but non P-450d did not oxidize uroporphyrinogen. These data indicate that hepatic P-450d catalyses uroporphyrinogen oxidation. We suggest that the P-450d-catalysed oxidation of uroporphyrinogen has a role in the uroporphyria caused by hexachlorobenzene and other compounds.

Abstract
Hepatocytes from male Sprague-Dawley rats pretreated with a cytochrome P-450 inducer, 3-methoxy-4-aminoazobenzene (3-MeO-AAB), 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) or phenobarbital (PB), were cultured in vitro, and changes in the quantity and activity of microsomal cytochrome P-450 isozymes in the cells were determined by means of immunochemical methods and a bacterial mutation test, respectively. The results of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using monoclonal antibodies against rat P-450 isozymes revealed that the amount of cytochrome P-450d induced by 3-MeO-AAB or MC declined rapidly during culture and fell to 10 to 15% of the initial value after 24 h. A similar tendency was observed with PB-induced cytochrome P-450b/e. By contrast, cytochrome P-450c in MC-induced hepatocytes declined more slowly than cytochrome P-450d and remained at 45 to 60% of the initial value after 24 h. Similar quantitative changes of the individual cytochrome P-450 isozymes in culture were also observed by immunoblotting using the anti-cytochrome P-450 monoclonal antibodies. Changes in the activities of individual cytochrome P-450 isozymes in hepatocytes by culture were in accordance with the quantitative changes of the cytochromes, as determined by a mutation test using Salmonella typhimurium TA 98 and carcinogenic aromatic amines. These results indicate that microsomal cytochrome P-450c in primary cultured rat hepatocytes is more stable in culture, in terms of both quantity and activity, than cytochrome P-450d and P-450b/e.

Abstract
Cytochrome P-448H/L-enriched and cytochrome P-448L-enriched microsomes were prepared from the livers of Sprague-Dawley rats treated with 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) and with a combination of MC and carbon tetrachloride, respectively, and their activities for mediating mutagenic activation of 9 carcinogenic aromatic amines and benzo[a]pyrene, which are found to be different from cyt. P-450 isozymes as to mutagenic activation, were compared on the basis of microsomal cytochrome P-450 content using Salmonella typhimurium TA98 as a tester bacterium. With regard to the substrate-specificity of cytochrome P-448 isozymes, the present results reflected the reported results with use of a cytochrome P-450-reconstituted system. These findings indicate that the mutation test with cytochrome P-448H/L-enriched and cytochrome P-448L-enriched microsomes could be used as a simple method for the determination of the cytochrome P-448 isozymes responsible for the mutagenic activation of carcinogens and mutagens without the use of a cytochrome P-450-reconstituted system.

Abstract
Microsomes from male rats treated with picloram (100 mg/kg/day) for 7 days showed a 48% decrease in 16 alpha-hydroxylase activity when incubated with (4-14C) androstenedione. These data are consistent with the assertion that picloram decreases the titer of hepatic male specific cytochrome P-450h. Several lines of evidence suggested that picloram is an inducer of hepatic cytochrome P-450 in male rats. First, SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed an intensified hepatic microsomal polypeptide (MW 54,000) following picloram pretreatment. This polypeptide co-migrated with protein bands which were correspondingly intensified after pretreatment with known inducers of cytochrome P-450d (3-methylcholanthrene and isosafrole). Second, no increase in the binding of metyrapone to picloram treated microsomes was noted compared with controls, suggesting no increase in phenobarbital-inducible forms of cytochrome P-450. Third, hepatic microsomes from picloram treated rats activated 2-amino-3-methylimidazo [4,5-f] quinoline (a cytochrome P-450d mediated catalysis) causing a 5-fold increase in the number of induced Salmonella typhimurium TA98 revertant colonies formed compared with control microsomes. Fourth, the binding of n-octylamine to hepatic microsomes from picloram-treated rats showed, like microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats, an increase in the proportion of high-spin cytochrome P-450 present. Cytochrome P-450d is known to be a high spin haemoprotein.

Abstract
Effect of 2-methoxy-4-aminoazobenzene (2-MeO-AAB) and 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) on the induction of microsomal cytochrome P-448 isozymes in primary cultured rat hepatocytes was examined by means of immunochemical methods such as protein A-enzyme-linked immonosorbent assay and immuno-blots using anti-rat cytochrome P-448 monoclonal antibodies and by means of bacterial mutation tests. Although 2-MeO-AAB selectively induced cytochrome P-448H and MC induced both cytochrome P-448H and a low spin form of cytochrome P-448 (P-448L) in the liver of rats, addition of these chemicals to primary cultured rat hepatocytes resulted in selective induction of cytochrome P-448L, as determined by the immunological methods. This was substantiated by the bacterial mutation test using Salmonella typhimurium TA 98 bacteria and two aromatic amine substrates with different specificities to the cytochrome P-448 isozymes. These results suggest that the responses of rat hepatocytes to cytochrome P-450 inducers are different in in vivo and in vitro.
