Abstract
We have investigated mechanisms of omeprazole (OME)-mediated induction of CYP1A1 and CYP3A, using the rat hepatoma H4IIE cell line, in comparison with mechanisms exerted by traditional aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) ligands such as benso(a)pyrene (B(a)P) and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). OME did not bind specifically to AhR, and it could not activate the AhR complex in rat cytosol to a xenobiotic-responsive element (XRE)-binding form in vitro. Genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and daidzein, an inhibitor of casein kinase II, efficiently inhibited OME-mediated but not B(a)P- or TCDD-mediated induction of CYP1A1, as monitored at the transcriptional, mRNA, and protein levels as well as by analysis of activation of XRE-luciferase reporter constructs transfected into H4IIE cells. The protease inhibitor Nalpha-p-tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK) and lavendustin A also had similar OME-specific effects. In addition, insulin pretreatment caused an almost complete inhibition of OME-dependent CYP1A1 induction but only partially affected TCDD and B(a)P-mediated induction of CYP1A1. Staurosporine, an inhibitor of protein kinase C, impaired the induction by both B(a)P and OME. OME caused an approximately 2-fold increase in the level of CYP3A expression, but all inhibitors used were ineffective in preventing this induction. Gel shift analysis with radiolabeled XRE and specific peptide antibodies toward AhR and aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator protein (Arnt) revealed an OME-mediated translocation of the AhR.Arnt complex into the nuclei. Genistein inhibited the specific nuclear XRE binding caused by OME, but it potentiated the formation of the TCDD-induced XRE.AhR complex. Although daidzein was able to effectively inhibit the OME-stimulated CYP1A1 gene transcription, it did not influence the OME-dependent AhR.XRE complex formation. The data are consistent with a mechanism for OME-mediated induction of CYP1A1 that involves activation of the AhR complex via intracellular signal transduction systems and that is distinct from induction mediated by AhR ligands.

Abstract
1. Our previous studies have shown that benzo(a)pyrene (BP), 3-methylcholanthrene (3MC) and tetrachlorodibenzofuran (TCDBF) can induce the expression of the cytochrome P450IA1 mRNA in the rat hepatoma cell line, H4IIE, although the kinetics of induction differed. 2. In the present study, by using biochemical, immunochemical and recombinant DNA approaches, the effects of these inducers have been examined on the steady state level of endogenous cytochrome P450IA1 protein and on induction of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase activity (CAT) in the H4IIE cells transfected with pMC1CAT (a recombinant construct consisting of CAT linked to 5' upstream DNA sequence of the rat cytochrome P450IA1 gene). 3. From 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase activity (EROD) and immunochemical analysis of cytochrome P450IA1, the optimal concentrations of BP, 3MC and TCDBF for induction in the H4IIE cells were determined as 1, 0.1-1 and 0.1 microM, respectively. 4. The elevated expression of the protein was more sustained in the TCDBF-exposed cells than in the BP or 3MC-treated cells. 5. After 1.5 hr of treatment, little if any detectable P450IA1 protein was observed in the H4IIE cells although a considerable amount of mRNA was present. 6. In addition, no cytochrome P450IA2 protein was detected in the control or induced H4IIE cells. 7. H4IIE cells were transfected by pMC1CAT, and the induction ratio of CAT expression in the transfected H4IIE cells after BP, 3MC or TCDBF treatment was 10-, 17- and 40-fold, respectively. 8. These results indicate that the rat H4IIE cell line offers a valid homologous system for studies of the regulation of the rat cytochrome P450IA1 gene.

Abstract
The mouse hepatoma cell line Hepa-1 was studied for aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) inducibility by sixteen compounds known to be inducers of cytochrome P450 of different "classes". Both 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and sodium phenobarbital induced AHH activity. A cytochrome P450IA1-specific (P1-450) mouse cDNA probe was used to quantitate mRNA induction. There was a good correlation between the amount of cytochrome P450IA1 mRNA induced and AHH activity. Immunoblots with monoclonal antibody 1-7-1, which recognizes rat liver P450IA1 and P450IA2 (P450c and P450d, respectively), showed that both phenobarbital and TCDD increase the amount of a P450 isozyme immunorelated to P450IA1 in this cell line. Hepa-1 mutants with no AHH inducibility (no functional P450IA1 structural gene; no Ah receptor; no nuclear translocation of the inducer-receptor complex; and presence of dominant repressor) did not respond to phenobarbital. The cytosolic receptor for TCDD (Ah receptor) was characterized to see if phenobarbital induced cytochrome P450IA1 mRNA and the hydroxylase enzyme through the same mechanism as TCDD. 20 mM Phenobarbital almost completely abolished the binding of 3H-TCDD to the cytosolic receptor. These data indicate that phenobarbital can be a weak ligand for the Ah receptor and thus induce cytochrome P450IA1 and AHH activity. The observation increases the list of different P450 forms inducible by phenobarbital.

Abstract
Two benzothiazole derivatives, 2-(4'-chlorophenyl)benzothiazole (CPBT) and 2-(4'-formylphenyl)benzothiazole (FPBT) were studied for their ability to induce aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity in a mouse and a human cell line. In both the mouse hepatoma cell line, Hepa-1, and the human choriocarcinoma cell line, JEG-3, a high aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity was observed after treatment with CPBT. In contrast, FPBT had a very weak inducing capacity in both cell lines. The maximal induction by CPBT was several times (e.g. in Hepa-1 about fourfold on average) greater than that observed with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). A specific cDNA probe for mouse cytochrome P4501A1 gene was used to quantify mRNA levels in Hepa-1 cells. CPBT increased cytochrome P450IA1 mRNA to a level of 88% of that induced by TCDD. Immunoblot analysis with monoclonal antibody 1-7-1, directed against rat liver cytochrome P450IA1 and P450IA2, showed that the amount of P450IA1 is substantially increased in Hepa-1 cells after treatment with CPBT. The observation that CPBT competed TCDD off its specific cytosolic binding site suggests a receptor-mediated induction of cytochrome P450IA1 mRNA. An in vitro activation effect did not explain the exceptionally high hydroxylase activity. The results show that CPBT is a more efficient inducer of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase than TCDD in Hepa-1 and JEG-3 cells and that the induction is supported by P450IA1. The discordant effect of CPBT on mRNA and aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity suggests that post-translational modifications of P450IA1 account for a major part of the increased enzyme activity.

Abstract
Molecular properties of nuclear aromatic hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor from Hepa-1c1c9 (Hepa-1) cells were assessed by velocity sedimentation on sucrose gradients and by gel permeation chromatography on Sephacryl S-300. Nuclear Ah receptor was obtained by exposing intact cells to [3H]-2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) for 1 h at 37 degrees C in culture followed by extraction of receptor from nuclei with buffers containing 0.5 M KCl. The nuclear Ah receptor was compared to the cytosolic Ah receptor from the same cells. Under conditions of low ionic strength, the Ah receptor from Hepa-1 cytosol sedimented as a single 9.4 +/- 0.63 S binding peak that had a Stokes radius of 7.1 +/- 0.12 nm and an apparent relative molecular mass of 271,000 +/- 16,000. After prolonged (24 h) exposure to high ionic strength (0.5 M KCl), cytosol labeled with [3H]TCDD exhibited two specific binding peaks. The large form of cytosolic Ah receptor seen under high ionic strength conditions sedimented at 9.4 +/- 0.46 S, had a Stokes radius of 6.9 +/- 0.19 nm, and an apparent Mr 267,000 +/- 15,000. The smaller ligand-binding subunit generated by exposing cytosol to 0.5 M KCl sedimented at 4.9 +/- 0.62 S, had a Stokes radius of 5.0 +/- 0.14 nm, and an apparent Mr 104,000 +/- 12,000. Nuclear Ah receptor, analyzed under high ionic strength conditions, sedimented at 6.2 +/- 0.20 S, had a Stokes radius of 6.8 +/- 0.19 nm, and an apparent Mr 176,000 +/- 7000. Nuclear Ah receptor from rat H4IIE hepatoma cells was analyzed and found to have physicochemical characteristics identical to those of nuclear Ah receptor from the mouse Hepa-1 cells. The molecular mass of Hepa-1 nuclear Ah receptor was found to be statistically different from both the Mr approximately 267,000 cytosolic Ah receptor and the Mr approximately 104,000 subunit which were present in cytosol under high ionic strength conditions. Hepa-1 nuclear Ah receptor could not be converted to a smaller ligand-binding subunit by treatment with alkaline phosphatase, ribonuclease, or sulfhydryl-modifying reagents or prolonged exposure to 1.0 M KCl. Cytosolic Ah receptor from Hepa-1 cells was "transformed" by heating at 25 degrees C in vitro into a form with high affinity for DNA-cellulose. The transformed cytosolic Ah receptor, when analyzed under conditions of high ionic strength, sedimented at approximately 6 S, had a Stokes radius of approximately 6.7 nm, and an apparent Mr approximately 167,000.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Induction of cytochrome P1-450 has been linked to susceptibility to certain chemically induced cancers in mouse and man. Treatment of the human cell line MCF-7 with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) results in high levels of aryl hydrocarbon (benzo[a]pyrene) hydroxylase (P1-450) activity. This cell line was used to isolate a human P1-450 full-length complementary DNA (cDNA) clone. The cDNA is 2566 nucleotides in length, encodes a polyadenylated messenger RNA (2.8 kilobases in length), and has a continuous reading frame producing a protein with 512 residues (molecular weight, 58,151). The human P1-450 cDNA and protein are 63 percent and 80 percent similar to mouse P1-450 cDNA and protein, respectively. Whereas the mouse TCDD-inducible P-450 gene subfamily has two members (P1-450 and P3-450), the human TCDD-inducible gene subfamily appears to have only one gene (P1-450).

Abstract
Four strains of Drosophila melanogaster exhibit differences in aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) inducibility by phenobarbital or Aroclor 1254, yet do not show the typical AHH induction response when exposed to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) or benzo[a]anthracene. Adult flies were nevertheless examined for the presence of cytosolic TCDD-specific binding (Ah receptor). Berlin-K and Haag 79 exhibit AHH induction by Aroclor 1254 and possess detectable amounts of Ah receptor. Hikone-R has negligible AHH inducibility by Aroclor 1254, yet possesses measurable amounts of the receptor. Oregon-K displays AHH induction by Aroclor 1254 but has no detectable levels of the cytosolic receptor. Specific (high-affinity, low-capacity and saturable) binding of [3H-1,6]TCDD to the Ah receptor in D. melanogaster was shown to be similar to that observed in C57BL/6 mouse liver. Similar specific binding of generally labeled [3H]benzo[a]anthracene in D. melanogaster cytosol was not found. These data suggest that the presence of the Ah receptor per se, or quantity of receptor, does not guarantee AHH inducibility by TCDD or benzo[a]anthracene in adults of these four fruit fly strains.

Abstract
We have investigated the responsiveness of established rat hepatocyte cell cultures to inducers of cytochrome P-450. One Reuber hepatoma-derived line (Fu5-C8), which under normal culture conditions produces no detectable cytochrome P-450(MC) or cytochrome P-450(PB)--the major cytochrome P-450 isozymes induced by 3-methylcholanthrene and phenobarbital, respectively--was tested for the ability to accumulate either cytochrome P-450 isozyme in response to treatment with various xenobiotics. By immune-precipitation from [35S]-methionine-labeled cell extracts, using monospecific anticytochrome P-450(MC) antibody or monoclonal anticytochrome P-450(PB) antibody, it was demonstrated that these cells possess the capability to synthesize cytochrome P-450(MC) in response to 3-methylcholanthrene treatment, while none of the drug treatments caused the synthesis of detectable quantities of cytochrome P-450(PB). RNA extracted from Fu5-C8 cells directed the in vitro synthesis of immune-precipitable cytochrome P-450(MC) only after treatment of the cells with 3-methylcholanthrene. Kinetic analysis of the response of these cells to 3-methylcholanthrene induction revealed detectable levels of immune-precipitable cytochrome P-450(MC) 2 h after drug treatment with maximal induction occurring between 12 and 16 h of exposure. Another cell line (HF 1.5), obtained originally by hybridization of Fao X H5 variants of a Reuber H35 hepatoma, produces cytochrome P-450(MC) and also cytochrome P-450(PB) constitutively, as determined by specific immune-precipitation from labeled cell extracts. Exposure of confluent monolayers to either phenobarbital or 3-methylcholanthrene resulted in an induction of cytochrome P-450(PB) or cytochrome P-450(MC), respectively. Double-labeling immunofluorescence studies indicate that all cells in the culture produce albumin and most of the cells produce cytochrome P-450(MC), but only a subset of cells synthesize cytochrome P-450(PB). Our results demonstrate that some continuously dividing hepatocyte cell cultures retain the capacity to respond to xenobiotics, including phenobarbital, a response which is typically exhibited by fully differentiated liver cells. Such established hepatocyte cell cultures should prove useful for investigating the mechanism of induction of cytochrome P-450(PB).

Abstract
The proposed mechanism of action of the toxic halogenated aromatics, typified by 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), involves the initial binding to a high-affinity, low-capacity, cytosolic receptor protein. Previous studies have shown that several 4'-halo-2,3,4,5-tetrachlorobiphenyls bind to the TCDD receptor and that a lateral substituent on both phenyl rings is required for activity. Using an extended series of eighteen 4'-substituted-2,3,4,5-tetrachlorobiphenyls as probes, the effects of a variable lateral substituent on receptor binding affinity and the induction of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) in vivo and in rat hepatoma H-4-II E cells have been determined. For most substituents, there was an excellent correlation between the rank-order potency for receptor binding and the rank-order potency for AHH induction. Based on in vitro binding affinities (EC50 values) of the 4'-substituted tetrachlorobiphenyls, a multiparameter regression equation was formulated correlating the binding constants to physicochemical substituent parameters. For thirteen compounds out of the present series, multiple regression analysis of the binding data led to the following equation: log(1/EC50) = 1.53 sigma + 1.47 pi + 1.09HB + 4.08, r = 0.978. The results suggest that halogen substitution on both phenyl rings is not a requirement for binding and that hydrophobic (pi) and electronic (sigma) substituent constants and a variable for hydrogen bond (HB) formation are significant parameters describing relative binding avidities of this series of substituted biphenyls for the TCDD receptor.

Abstract
The effects of structure on the activity of 15 polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) isomers and congeners as inducers of cytochrome P-448-dependent monooxygenases in rat hepatoma cell cultures was investigated. All the PCBs which have previously been classified as aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) inducers in the immature male Wistar rat also induced benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylase and ethoxyresorufin (ER) O-deethylase activity in the rat hepatoma H-4-II-E cells. The relative activities of the compounds were evaluated by comparing the doses required to half-maximally induce the two enzyme activities. The most potent PCB inducer, 3,3',4,4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl, exhibited molar EC50 values of 2.48 X 10(-10) and 2.40 X 10(-10) for the induction of ER O-deethylase and benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylase enzyme activities, respectively. These values were only 3- to 4-fold lower than the data obtained for the highly toxic 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). The relative activities of the PCB congeners as inducers of cytochrome P-448-dependent monooxygenase in vitro were similar to their potencies as microsomal enzyme inducers in the immature male rat.

Abstract
4'-Iodo-, 4'-bromo-, 4'-chloro- and 4'-fluoro-2,3,4,5-tetrachlorobiphenyl were administered to immature male Wistar rats and the effects of this homologous series of 4'-halo-2,3,4,5-tetrachlorobiphenyls on the microsomal drug-metabolizing enzymes were determined. All the halogenated biphenyls increased microsomal benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylase (or aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase, AHH), ethoxyresorufin (ER) O-deethylase and dimethylaminoantipyrine (DMAP) N-demethylase. The effects of the 4'-halo-2,3,4,5-tetrachlorobiphenyls on the microsomal enzyme activities and on the relative peak intensities and spectral shifts of the reduced cytochrome P-450:CO and ethylisocyanide (EIC) binding difference spectra were similar to those observed after coadministration of phenobarbitone (PB) and 3-methylcholanthrene (MC). The relative activities of the halogenated biphenyls were determined using two in vitro assays; namely cytochrome P-448 associated induction in rat hepatoma H-4-II E cells in culture and competitive binding to the hepatic cytosolic Ah receptor protein from male Wistar rats. Dose-response experiments for the iodo, bromo, chloro and fluoro analogs gave EC50(M) values of 8.5 x 10(-9), 6.6 x 10(-8), 5.7 x 10(-7), and 3.3 x 10(-5), and 1.5 x 10(-6), 2.5 x 10(-6), 4.1 x 10(-6) and 2.5 x 10(-5) for the Er O-deethylase induction and receptor binding assays respectively. The relative potencies of the 4'-halo-2,3,4,5-tetrachlorobiphenyls followed the order I greater than Br greater than Cl greater than F for both assays and differences in the EC50 values for the iodo and fluoro analogs were greater than three orders of magnitude for ER O-deethylase induction in rat hepatoma cells in culture. One possible explanation for these effects may be associated with differences in the polarizability of the laterally substituted halogen groups. However, other differences in the physico-chemical properties of the halogen atoms may also be important.

Abstract
All organisms possess a number of genetically regulated mechanisms in order to cope with rapid adverse changes in the environment. The two systems which appear to respond to a seemingly endless array of chemical specificities are the immune response and the induction of drug-metabolizing enzymes. Similarities and differences between the immunoglobulin and the cytochrome P-450-mediated monooxygenase systems are described. DNA insertion sequences, plasmid "transposons," maize "controlling elements," gene duplication, intervening sequences, and high-frequency intergenic recombination are all discussed as possible methods by which organisms can "adapt" quickly to a new selective pressure. If the regulation of P-450 induction resembles in any way the other methods by which pro- and eukaryotes cope genetically with numerous forms of environmental adversity, therefore, it is very likely that mammalian tissues contain hundreds, if not thousands, of inducible forms of P-450.

Abstract
In a Namru mouse liver epithelial cell strain designated NMuLi, aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) activity peaked at 12 h post-induction with 1 microgram/ml of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) in both confluent and growing cells. Maximal levels of AHH activity were reached on day two post-plating. This induced activity was inhibited in vitro 78% by gassing the incubation mixture with carbon monoxide for 15 s, and inhibited 93% by addition of 40 microgram/ml of 7,8 benzoflavone(BF). Induced AHH levels were higher in epithelial clones that were sensitive to the toxicity of BaP than in resistant clones. The survival fraction of clones from NMuLi and of subclones derived from a sensitive clone of NMuLi after BaP treatment was a negative exponential function of the maximal induced AHH activity in the clones. One of the clones, NMuLi cl 8, was extremely susceptible to the toxic effects of BaP, the +/-(trans)-7alpha, 8beta-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydro-BaP(7,8-diol), and the (+/-)-7alpha, 8beta-dihydroxy-9beta, 10beta-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-BaP (diol-epoxide), known metabolites of BaP. The toxicity of BaP and the 7,8 diol to this clone was inhibited by BF, suggesting that these cells possessed an enzyme activity inhibitable by BF that could epoxidize BaP to the 7,8 oxide and then epoxidize the resultant 7,8 diol to the diol-epoxide. Another clone derived from NMuLi, clone 7, was relatively resistant to the toxic effects of BaP and the 7,8-diol, but still extremely susceptible to the toxic effects of the diol-epoxide. The slight toxicity to BaP in this clone was inhibited by BF, but the toxicity of the 7,8-diol to this clone was not inhibited by BF. A typical cytochrome P450 inhibitor, metyrapone, had no effect on the toxicity of BaP, the 7,8-diol, or the diol-epoxide to either clone 7 or clone 8. The results suggest that these liver cells possess two enzymes that play some role in polycyclic hydrocarbon-induced toxicity. Enzyme A, a BaP-inducible enzyme that is inhibitable by BF, efficiently metabolizes BaP to the 7,8-diol and the 7,8-diol to the diol-epoxide. It is responsible for most of the hydrocarbon toxicity. Enzyme B is not inhibitable by BF and metabolizes the 7,8-diol less efficiently to the diol-epoxide or efficiently to other, less toxic products.
