Fitzsimmons PN, Lien GJ, Nichols JW. A compilation of in vitro rate and affinity values for xenobiotic biotransformation in fish, measured under physiological conditions. Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2007; 145:485-506. [PMID: 17360241 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpc.2006.12.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2006] [Revised: 12/28/2006] [Accepted: 12/30/2006] [Indexed: 12/08/2022]
Abstract
Scientific literature from the past 25 years was searched to obtain in vitro biotransformation rate and affinity data for fish. To maximize the environmental relevance of this dataset, we focused on studies conducted at multiple substrate concentrations, and established acceptance criteria with respect to assay temperature and pH. Altogether, enzyme rate and affinity parameters are provided for 43 species and 77 compounds. In all but three instances, the reported reactions exhibited saturation at high substrate concentrations and could be used to calculate Michaelis-Menten rate (Vmax) and affinity (Km) constants. Most of this information was obtained using in vitro systems derived from liver tissue. Information from non-hepatic tissues was included, however, to provide a basis for comparisons among tissues. Where possible, in vitro enzyme parameters were examined to compare: (1) hepatic metabolism of a common substrate within a species, (2) hepatic metabolism of common substrates by different species, and (3) metabolism of a common substrate by different tissues of one species. Comparisons within species highlight a number of factors that may substantially influence xenobiotic metabolism in fish including gender, life stage, and acclimation temperature. Limited data suggest that Vmax and Km for the same reaction may vary by up to three orders of magnitude among species.

Abstract
Oystercatchers (Haematopus ostralegus) foraging on the canal 'Zeehavenkanaal' in the Netherlands have been shown to accumulate appreciable amounts of contaminants, especially hexachlorobenzene. The present study was performed to assess the embryotoxic effects of the present contaminants. To this end, a two step approach was followed. In step one, the toxic effects of hexachlorobenzene were studied in the chicken embryo bioassay, using concentrations realistic for the field situation. In step two, yolks of oystercatcher eggs were extracted and the embryotoxic potency of this extract was studied in the same bioassay, using doses of 1, 10 and 100% of the contaminant load in one average egg. The extract contained hexachlorobenzene and PCBs. However, presence of other compounds could not be excluded, since these were not analysed. Hexachlorobenzene induced a nonsignificant decrease in lymphocyte density in the bursa of Fabricius. The egg extract caused a 3.5 fold induction of EROD activity at the highest dose applied, and decreased lymphocyte density in the bursa of Fabricius.

Abstract
The induction of CYP2B1 mediated pentoxyresorufin O-dealkylase (PROD) activity by various xenobiotics was explored in liver, kidney and lung from a variety of animal species of both sexes, in order to gain insights into the substrate specificity of induced CYPs. Marked species- and sex-related differences in the inducibility of PROD activity by tested chemicals were observed, the mouse being always more responsive when compared to hamster or rat. Induction by sodium phenobarbital (NaPB) led to a conspicuous increase in all situations, up to approximately 38-fold in female rat and mouse liver, with the exception of hamster kidney where PROD activity was only slightly affected. Unexpectedly, both sodium barbital (NaB) and phorone (PHR) moderately induce CYP2B1 isoforms in rat, the extent being highest in female kidney (PHR, 14-fold increase) and male lung (NaB, 4.5-fold). The degree of induction was maximal in the liver with some exceptions occurring in male mice where NaB induced up to 46- and 115-fold increases in lung and kidney and PHR up to 115-fold in kidney. Minimal, although significant induction of PROD activity following treatment with trans-1,2-dichloroethylene (1,2-DCE) occurred in all situations with the exception of hamster kidney and lung. Therefore, caution should be exercised when using PROD activity as specific enzymatic assay to probe CYP2B1-like induction.

Abstract
1. The metabolism of 2-, 3-, 4-bromo-, 2-, 4-chloro-, and 2-fluorobiphenyl by hepatic microsomes isolated from control and Aroclor 1254-treated rats and pigeons was studied. 2. Meta and para as well as dihydroxylated metabolites were detected, but para hydroxylation was the preferred route of metabolism with all of the substrates used. 3. The overall rates of hydroxylation were greater with hepatic microsomes from rats than from pigeons. 4. Treatment with Aroclor 1254, a potent inducer of hepatic monooxygenases, resulted in increased rates of metabolism and in the enhanced formation of diol metabolites. Metabolism of halobiphenyls by induced P450 isoenzymes altered the regioselective hydroxylation pathways. 5. Ortho- and meta halosubstituted biphenyls were less rapidly metabolised when compared with para substituted isomers.

Abstract
1. The cytochrome P-450 substrates, methoxy-, ethoxy-, pentoxy- and benzyloxyphenoxazone were investigated in liver microsomes of phenobarbital- and beta-napththoflavone-induced White Leghorn chickens and compared to the rat mammalian model. 2. Thirty-two-fold increases in benzyloxyphenoxazone O-dealkylase and 27-fold increases in ethoxyphenoxazone O-dealkylase activities were observed in beta-naphthoflavone-treated chickens compared to only an 18-fold increase in ethoxyphenoxazone O-dealkylase activity in beta-naphthoflavone-treated rats. 3. Decreases in pentoxy- and benzyloxyphenoxazone O-dealkylase activities were observed in phenobarbital-treated chickens in contrast to increases of 197-fold in pentoxy- and 98-fold in benzyloxyphenoxazone O-dealkylases in the phenobarbital-treated rats.

Abstract
1. The possibility that temperature acclimation (to 10 or 18 degrees C for 28 days) would alter the cytochromes P-450 of rainbow trout was addressed. 2. The specific content of LM4b (P-450 IA1), the trout isozyme responsible for activation of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, was lower in 18 degrees C fish than it was in 10 degrees C fish. 3. Kinetic analysis of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase indicated that, while thermal acclimation caused no change in Vmax, it lowered the apparent Km of this enzyme for benzo[a]pyrene when assayed at acutely shifted temperatures. 4. Thermal acclimation of fish may have significance when feral populations are subjected to acute temperature shifts.

Abstract
The induction of cytochrome P-450-mediated alkoxyresorufin O-dealkylase activities by various xenobiotics was examined in liver from a variety of animal species in order to gain insights into the substrate specificities of the induced P-450s. We found that forms of cytochrome P-450 capable of mediating the O-dealkylation of the short-chain phenoxazone ethers methoxy-, ethoxy- and propoxyresorufin were highly induced by 3-methylcholanthrene-type inducers and by Aroclor-1254 in all species tested, although there were species differences in the relative turnover rates for the various substrates. For example, in hamster liver the turnover rates for the short-chain resorufin ethers decreased in the following order: methoxy greater than ethoxy much greater than propoxy, while in the rat liver almost the exact opposite order was observed: ethoxy = propoxy much greater than methoxy. In contrast, the degree of induction by phenobarbital-type inducers of isozymes catalyzing the O-dealkylation of pentoxy- or benzyloxyresorufin was highly species-dependent. Thus, F344/NCr rats, B6C3F1 mice and NZB rabbits showed the greatest (greater than 20-fold) induction of these activities, either by phenobarbital or Aroclor-1254, while Mongolian gerbils showed intermediate levels of induction and Syrian golden hamsters exhibited very low induction. In the Japanese quail, phenobarbital- or DDT-treatment resulted in minimal induction of pentoxy- or benzyloxyresorufin O-dealkylase activity, although significant induction of the latter activity occurred following treatment with 5,6-benzoflavone or with Aroclor-1254. Since substrate specificities of most enzymes can be rationalized based upon differences in the steric requirements at the enzyme active site, we employed molecular modeling techniques to calculate the molecular dimensions of the alkoxyresorufins. Surprisingly, the minimal energy conformations in vacuo of each of the resorufin ethers examined are essentially planar. However, alternative configurations, especially for the pentoxy- and benxyloxy-ethers, having greater three-dimensional bulk are also energetically possible.

Abstract
1. Pretreatment of alligators i.p. with 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) resulted in a 1.6-fold increase (P less than 0.001) in cytochrome P-450 specific content and a bathochromic shift in the absorption maximum of reduced, CO-liganded microsomes (448 nm). 2. Control and MC microsomal cytochrome P-450 binding spectra with a number of type I and type II ligands were similar. 3. MC treatment of alligators resulted in a 12-fold increase in benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylase activity, which was inhibited 82% by 0.1 mM alpha-naphthoflavone. The turnover number (units/nmol P-450) of aminopyrine N-demethylase and 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase were unaffected by MC treatment. 4. The O-dealkylation (OD) of a series of alkoxyresorufins (ethoxyresorufin (ER), methoxyresorufin (MR), benzyloxyresorufin (BR), and pentoxyresorufin (PR] was investigated. MC treatment resulted in a significant (P less than 0.001) increase in turnover number of EROD, MROD, and BROD over control values. The turnover number of PROD was unaltered by MC treatment. 5. Western blots showed that control alligator microsomes contain a protein band of lower mol. wt. than either rat cytochrome P-450c (P450 IA1) or P-450d (P450 IA2), which was recognized by antibodies to both P-450c and P-450d but preferentially by that against P-450c. This protein band was induced 3-4-fold by MC. MC treatment induced a second protein band in alligator microsomes of the same mol. wt. as rat P-450d, recognized preferentially by antibodies to rat cytochrome P-450d. 6. These results illustrate that the alligator mixed-function oxidase (MFO) system responds to MC in a similar manner as described in mammals, i.e. induction in P-450 content, increases in specific MFO activities, and the apparent expression of different P-450 isoenzymes.

Abstract
In quail liver microsomes the metabolism of histamine is prevalently sustained by diaminoxidase (DAO). Treatment with phenobarbital (PB) and clofibrate (CF) does not modify DAO activity, while that with Aroclor 1254 (PCB) and beta-naphtoflavone (BNF) significantly decreases it. The decrease of DAO activity produced by these substances is not dependent on their direct inhibition of the enzyme. DAO decrease might represent a further possibility to discriminate among different inducers; moreover, it implies that histamine metabolism might be decreased, in quail liver, by some classes of inducers.

Abstract
The ability of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) to cause changes in the isozymic composition of hepatic monooxygenases of Japanese quail was assessed. HCB-induced changes in the relative concentrations of benzo[a]pyrene metabolites produced in vitro were apparent. HCB treatment also resulted in changes in the responsiveness of ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase (ECOD) and ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) to the in vitro cytochrome P-450 inhibitors metyrapone, SKF-525A, and alpha-naphthoflavone. These changes may be indicative of alterations in the major cytochrome P-450 isozymes present following HCB treatment. Of these changes, only an increased responsiveness of ECOD to SKF-525A correlated with the onset of porphyria. The response of Japanese quail to the porphyrogenic action of HCB is more rapid than that found with more commonly used mammalian models. This rapid response is probably due either to the ability of quail to produce greater amounts of porphyrogenic metabolites of HCB than mammals or to a greater sensitivity of the heme pathway in quail to metabolites produced. In either case, this rapid response makes Japanese quail a good model for studying the biochemical mechanism for HCB-induced porphyria. The work presented here extends previous in vivo studies by using in vitro techniques to address the possibility that changes in the proportions of the major cytochrome P-450 isozymes occur in response to HCB and these changes, rather than changes in the total concentration of cytochrome P-450, are important to the development of porphyria.

Abstract
Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) was administered orally (500 mg/kg d) for 1, 2, 5, or 10d) to sexually mature Japanese quail to compare altered hepatic porphyrin levels with changes that occur in hepatic xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes. Porphyrin levels rapidly increased following the administration of HCB (three times control levels after a single dose of HCB), and birds began to develop porphyria (i.e., porphyrin levels were at least 10 times higher than controls) following 5 d of treatment. Following 10 d of HCB treatment, 3 of 4 treated quail were porphyric. Coincident with the HCB-induced disruption of the heme biosynthetic pathway were increases in various hepatic constituents. Changes included elevation of microsomal protein concentrations and increases in the specific content of cytochrome P-450, in the activities of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH), biphenyl hydroxylase (BPH), ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD), and ethoxycoumarin-O-deethylase (ECOD), and in cytosolic and microsomal glutathione S-transferase (GSH-t) levels. In addition, the lambda max of the CO versus CO-reduced absorption spectra of hepatic microsomes from HCB-dosed birds showed a hypsochromic shift of 450 to 448 nm. The activity of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase was increased following 10 d of HCB, and the activity of epoxide hydrolase was increased following 5 d of HCB. Most of these changes occurred with a single HCB treatment, and no further alterations developed in the nature of the response with repetitive dosing. Only weight loss, increased cytochrome P-450 content, and increases in GSH-t activity occurred simultaneously with the induction of porphyria.
