CYP4B1 expression

Whole genome DNA sequencing revealed a higher frequency of T > G (A > C) base substitution mutations in worms expressing human CYP1A1;EPHX which aligned with an increase in DNA adducts identified via an ELISA method (but not classical 32P-postlabelling). Overall, the CYP-humanised worms provided new insights into the value of genome-optimised invertebrate models by identifying the benefits and limitations within the context of the (3Rs) concept which aims to replace, reduce and refine the use of animals in research.

In the P40 group, the degree of hepatic hyperemia was similar to that in the control group, as was the increase in metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) activity. Piperine has demonstrated beneficial and promising effects for the prevention of liver injury resulting from paracetamol-induced drug intoxication.

CYP3A4 and MTATP6 gene expressions were decreased in MCF-7 breast cancer cell line when the cells treated with juglone or curcumin. CYP3A4 and MTATP6 gene expressions were decreased at all application doses of juglone in MDA-MB-231 cells whereas CYP3A4 and MTATP6 protein levels were only decreased at 10 μM curcumin compared with the control group.

PM2.5 exposure during nephrogenesis may exert transgenerational renal impairment, and maternal vitamin D intake could attenuate PM2.5-induced kidney damage in mothers and their offspring.

We previously developed Caco-2 cells whose expression of CYP3A4 can be controlled using doxycycline (Dox) (CYP3A4-Caco-2 cells) (Ichikawa et al., Sci...In this study, we used genome-editing technology to establish CES1-knockout Caco-2 cells whose CYP3A4 and UGT1A1 expression can be regulated by the Tet-Off system. These cell lines would be useful in pharmaceutical researches, including intestinal toxicological studies, as an in vitro model for orally administered drugs.

Co-regulation between MAPK members and pollutants transport/metabolism related factors was revealed, suggesting MAPK signaling pathway served as a regulating hub in exposed mussels to conquer SMX/PE stress. Overall, this study provides new insights on SMX/PE induced health risks in marine mussels and potential mechanism through MAPK cascades regulation.

In conclusion, this study suggested that Pyr and its halogenated derivatives exert potent effects on endogenous metabolism disruption under the action of various exogenous metabolic enzymes (CYPs). Thus, new evidence was provided to toxicological mechanisms of HPAHs, and reveals potential health risks of HPAHs in inducing diseases caused by redox and amino acid imbalances.

We utilized a murine model of sepsis-induced by intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in C57BL/6J mice divided into four groups: Control, LPS, Anti-HBP, and ceftriaxone (CEF)...Moreover, the effect of lowering the HBP level was equivalent to that of the classical antibiotic CEF. Not applicable.

ESA can alleviate the inflammatory response in ischemic stroke, which maybe related to its function in regulating the balance between CYP27a1/b1 and CYP24a, converting vitamin D into active vitamin D3, inhibiting vitamin D3 degradation, and regulating Th1/Th2 balance.

In conclusion, our results suggest that gestational exposure to PFBS may induce molecular perturbations in glucose homeostasis. These findings provide insights into the potential mechanisms contributing to the heightened risk of abnormal glucose tolerance associated with PFBS exposure.

Therefore, the expression of CYPs is not directly associated with prostate cancer but is largely determined by genetic, epigenetic factors, as well as endogenous substrates and xenobiotics. The significant correlative relationship between CYPs and genes associated with cancer may indicate common regulatory pathways that may have a synergistic effect on the tumor, ensuring the survival of cancer cells.

Conclusively, GRV is a natural medicinal product that can alleviate the renal injury resulting from environmental exposure to DMBA. The reno-protective effects of GRV may involve its anti-inflammatory and/or antioxidant properties, which are based on the presence of phytochemical compounds such as acetogenins, alkaloids, and flavonoids.
