Abstract
Orphan cytochromes P450 (CYP) are enzymes whose biological functions and substrates are unknown. However, the use of new experimental strategies has allowed obtaining more information about their relevance in the metabolism of endogenous and exogenous compounds. Likewise, the modulation of their expression and activity has been associated with pathogenesis and prognosis in different diseases. In this work, we review the regulatory pathways and the possible role of orphan CYP to provide evidence that allow us to stop considering some of them as orphan enzymes and to propose them as possible therapeutic targets in the design of new strategies for the treatment of diseases associated with CYP-mediated metabolism.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) that metabolize xenobiotics are expressed and active in the brain. These CYPs contribute to the metabolism of many centrally acting compounds, including clinically used drugs, drugs of abuse, and neurotoxins. Although CYP levels are lower in the brain than in the liver, they may influence central substrate and metabolite concentrations, which could alter resulting centrally-mediated responses to these compounds. Additionally, xenobiotic metabolizing CYPs are highly variable due to genetic polymorphisms and regulation by endogenous and xenobiotic molecules. In the brain, these CYPs are sensitive to xenobiotic induction. As a result, CYPs in the brain vary widely, including among humans, and this CYP variation may influence central metabolism and resulting response to centrally acting compounds. It has been demonstrated, using experimental manipulation of CYP activity in vivo selectively within the brain, that CYP metabolism in the brain alters central substrate and metabolite concentrations, as well as drug response and neurotoxic effects. This suggests that variability in xenobiotic metabolizing CYPs in the human brain may meaningfully contribute to individual differences in response to, and effects of, centrally acting drugs and neurotoxins. This chapter will provide an overview of CYP expression in the brain, endogenous- and xenobiotic-mediated CYP regulation, and the functional impact of CYP-mediated metabolism of drugs and neurotoxins in the brain, with a focus on experimental approaches in mice, rats, and non-human primates, and a discussion regarding the potential role of xenobiotic metabolizing CYPs in the human brain.

Life Sci 2020; 258:118140. [PMID: 32730838 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2020.118140] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2020] [Revised: 07/09/2020] [Accepted: 07/20/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
AIMS This study was performed to investigate the expression profile of cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms and effects of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and antiepileptic drugs on CYP1 expression in human astrocytoma MOG-G-CCM cells. MAIN METHODS CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 expression were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting, and immunocytochemistry. KEY FINDINGS MOG-G-CCM cells expressed various CYP isoforms. Among the CYP isoforms analyzed, CYP1B1 showed the highest expression level, followed by CYP1A1. Furthermore, CYP1B1 was localized in both the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. 3-Methylcholanthrene (3-MC), benz[a]anthracene (B[a]A), benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P), and valproic acid (VPA) increased the expression of CYP1B1 and CYP1A1. The potent aryl hydrocarbon receptor antagonist GNF351 significantly suppressed the 3-MC- and VPA-mediated upregulation of CYP1B1 and CYP1A1. In addition, VPA potentiated the induction of CYP1B1 and CYP1A1 by 3-MC, B[a]A, and B[a]P, although the augmentation of CYP1A1 was more remarkable than that of CYP1B1. In contrast, other antiepileptic drugs (carbamazepine, lamotrigine, levetiracetam, phenytoin) did not affect the 3-MC-mediated upregulation of CYP1B1 and CYP1A1. VPA is known to act as a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor. Therefore, the effects of trichostatin A, a representative HDAC inhibitor, on CYP1 induction by 3-MC were examined. Trichostatin A enhanced the 3-MC-mediated upregulation of CYP1A1 but not CYP1B1. SIGNIFICANCE These results partially indicated that VPA may augment the PAH-mediated induction of CYP1B1 and CYP1A1 through the activation of transcription by HDAC inhibition.

Abstract
Indications of proximal tubule effects have been observed in recent surveillance study of Gulf War veterans exposed to depleted uranium (DU). This gives some support for the suspicion that DU may represent one of the causes for the so-called Persian Gulf syndrome. Proposed effects may be especially harmful if the toxicity hits the mitochondrial DNA since the mitochondria lack the nucleotide excision repair mechanism, which is needed for repairing bulky adducts that have been associated with DU. It is a plausible working hypothesis that a significant part of the symptoms from various organs, which have been observed among veterans from Gulf War 1 and that have been grouped under the name of the Persian Gulf syndrome, may be explained as a consequence of mitochondrial DNA damage in various cell types and organs. Interpretation of observations, on military personnel and civilians after Gulf War 1, is associated with difficulties because of the abundance of potential confounding factors. The symptoms observed on veterans from Gulf War 1 may be attributed to a multiplicity of substances functioning directly or indirectly as mitochondrial mutagens. A concise analysis of the cascade of toxic effects initiated by DU exposure in the human body is the subject of this article.

Abstract
This mini-review examines the crucial importance of transcription factors as a first line of defense in the detoxication of xenobiotics. Key transcription factors that recognize xenobiotics or xenobiotic-induced stress such as reactive oxygen species (ROS), include AhR, PXR, CAR, MTF, Nrf2, NF-κB, and AP-1. These transcription factors constitute a significant portion of the pathways induced by toxicants as they regulate phase I-III detoxication enzymes and transporters as well as other protective proteins such as heat shock proteins, chaperones, and anti-oxidants. Because they are often the first line of defense and induce phase I-III metabolism, could these transcription factors be considered the phase 0 of xenobiotic response?

Abstract
Nuclear receptors (NRs) belong to a family of ligand-dependent transcription factors. The target genes of NRs include many drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters. The central nervous system (CNS) bears the expression of NRs, drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters. NRs that express in the brain can be divided into three groups according to their characteristics of ligand binding: steroid hormone receptors, non-steroid hormone receptors, and orphan receptors. The NR-mediated regulation of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters plays important roles in the metabolism and disposition of drugs in the CNS and the penetration of endogenous and exogenous substances through the blood-brain barrier (BBB). NR-mediated regulation of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters can cause the toxicological effects of xenobiotics in the CNS and also lead to drug resistance in the centrum. The regulatory pathways of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters can provide new strategies for selective regulation of the BBB permeability and drug metabolism in the brain. This review focuses on the importance of NR-mediated regulation of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters in the CNS and the implications of this regulation in the therapeutic effect of CNS drugs and CNS side effects of drugs and other xenotoxicants.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) isozymes vary their expression depending on the brain area, the cell type, and the presence of drugs. Some isoforms are involved in detoxification and/or toxic activation of xenobiotics in central nervous system. However, their role in brain metabolism and neurodegeneration is still a subject of debate. We have studied the inducibility of CYP isozymes in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells, treated with β-naphtoflavone (β-NF) or ethanol (EtOH) as inducers, by qRT-PCR, Western blot (WB), and metabolic activity assays. Immunohistochemistry was used to localize the isoforms in mitochondria and/or endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to study the role of CYPs during methylphenyl pyridine (MPP+) exposure. EtOH increased mRNA and protein levels of CYP2D6 by 73% and 60% respectively. Both β-NF and EtOH increased CYP2E1 mRNA (4- and 1.4-fold, respectively) and protein levels (64% both). The 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylation and dextromethorphan O-demethylation was greater in treatment samples than in controls. Furthermore, both treatments increased by 22% and 18%, respectively, the cell viability in MPP+-treated cells. Finally, CYP2D6 localized at mitochondria and ER. These data indicate that CYP is inducible in SH-SY5Y cells and underline this in vitro system for studying the role of CYPs in neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2U1 (CYP2U1) exhibits several distinctive characteristics among the 57 human CYPs, such as its presence in almost all living organisms with a highly conserved sequence, its particular gene organization with only five exons, its major location in thymus and brain, and its protein sequence involving an unusually long N-terminal region containing 8 proline residues and an insert of about 20 amino acids containing 5 arginine residues after the transmembrane helix. Few substrates, including fatty acids, N-arachidonoylserotonin (AS), and some drugs, have been reported so far. However, its biological roles remain largely unknown, even though CYP2U1 mutations have been involved in some pathological situations, such as complicated forms of hereditary spastic paraplegia. These data together with its ability to hydroxylate some fatty acids and AS suggest its possible role in lipid metabolism.

Abstract
Organisms have metabolic pathways that are responsible for removing toxic agents. We always associate the liver as the major organ responsible for detoxification of the body; however this process occurs in many tissues. In the same way, as in the liver, the brain expresses metabolic pathways associated with the elimination of xenobiotics. Besides the detoxifying role of CYP2E1 for compounds such as electrophilic agents, reactive oxygen species, free radical products, and the bioactivation of xenobiotics, CYP2E1 is also related in several diseases and pathophysiological conditions. In this review, we describe the presence of phase I monooxygenase CYP2E1 in regions of the brain. We also explore the conditions where protein, mRNA, and the activity of CYP2E1 are induced. Finally, we describe the relation of CYP2E1 in brain disorders, including the behavioral relations for alcohol consumption via CYP2E1 metabolism.

Abstract
Expression of various cytochrome P450s (CYPs) in mammalian brain cells is well documented. However, such studies are hampered in neural/glial cells of human origin due to nonavailability of human brain cells. To address this issue, we investigated the expression and inducibility of CYP2C8 and CYP3A4 and their responsiveness against cyclophosphamide (CPA) and organophosphorus pesticide monocrotophos (MCP), a known developmental neurotoxicant in human neural (SH-SY5Y) and glial (U373-MG) cell lines. CPA induced significant expression of CYP2C8 and CYP3A4 in both types of cells in a time-dependent manner. Neural cell line exhibited relatively higher constitutive and inducible expression of CYPs than the glial cell line. MCP exposure alone could not induce the significant expression of CYPs, whereas the cells preexposed to CPA showed a significant response to MCP. Similar to the case of CPA induced expressions, neural cells were found to be more vulnerable than glial cells. Our data indicate differential expressions of CYPs in cultured human neural and glial cell lines. The findings were synchronized with protein ligand docking studies, which showed a significant modulatory capacity of MCP by strong interaction with CYP regulators-CAR and PXR. Similarly, the known CYP inducer CPA has also shown significant high docking scores with the two studied CYP regulators. We also observed a significant induction in reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid peroxides (LPO), micronucleus (MN), chromosomal aberration (CA), and reduction in reduced glutathione (GSH) and catalase following the exposure of MCP. Moreover, the expressions of apoptotic markers such as caspase-3, caspase-9, Bax, and p53 were significantly upregulated, whereas the levels of antiapoptotic marker, Bcl2, was downregulated after the exposure of MCP in both cell lines. These findings confirm the involvement of ROS-mediated oxidative stress, which subsequently triggers apoptosis pathways in both human neural (SH-SY5Y) and glial (U373-MG) cell lines following the exposure of MCP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the CYP1B1 Asn453Ser polymorphism and selected somatic and biochemical variables, and atherogenic indices in premenopausal and postmenopausal Slovak women. METHODS The studied sample consisted of 334 women; 188 premenopausal (mean age 45.73 ± 3.77 y) and 146 postmenopausal women (mean age 53.51 ± 4.52 y). The participants were interviewed during their medical examination. They provided a blood sample for biochemical analysis and DNA genotyping. RESULTS The frequency of rare allele Ser (CYP1B14) was equal to 0.125 in premenopausal and 0.168 in postmenopausal women. The observed genotype frequencies were in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The Asn453Ser genotype showed statistically significant associations with a high-density lipoprotein (HDL-cholesterol) and apolipoprotein A1 levels in postmenopausal women. The mean values of the above mentioned variables were significantly higher in women carrying the Ser/Ser genotype. The general linear model analysis confirmed the results of the additive genetic model in postmenopausal women and demonstrated significant association of the Asn453Ser polymorphism with HDL-cholesterol levels also in premenopausal women (P = 0.041). CONCLUSIONS This pilot study revealed a significant association of the CYP1B1 Asn453Ser genotypes with the plasma levels of HDL-cholesterol and of apolipoprotein A1 in postmenopausal women and less unequivocal findings in premenopausal women. Because of study limitations, these results need to be examined in a larger study.
