Effects on the hepatic cytochrome P450 1A1 system were investigated in juvenile rainbow trout i.p. injected with three different aromatic containing fractions: kerosene, light gas oil or heavy gas oil, originated from distilled North Sea crude oil. Kerosene treatment resulted in no effect on the P450 1A1 system, light gas oil injection caused a weak induction of EROD activities and heavy gas oil treatment resulted in a prominent induction of EROD activities as well as accumulation of CYP1A1 mRNA and P450 1A1 protein levels. The effects of heavy gas oil were compared with effects of β-napthoflavone (β-NF) on the P450 1A1 system. It was obvious that important discrepancies seemed to exist between EROD activities and corresponding CYP1A1 mRNA and P450 1A1 levels in rainbow trout treated with either heavy gas oil or β-NF i.e. heavy gas oil treatment resulted in higher specific EROD activities (EROD/P450 1A1) compared to β-NF. GC-MS analyses revealed that liver and bile from heavy gas oil treated rainbow trout in addition to naphthalene also contained polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as phenanthrenes, anthracene, pyrenes, fluoranthene benz(a)anthracene and chrysene, while none of these compounds were detected in control trout.  相似文献

The effects of isosafrol (ISF) or β-naphthoflavone (βNF) treatments on cytochrome P450 (P450) levels in rainbow trout liver were investigated using immunochemical and catalytic techniques. The discrepancies in catalytic activities and ELISA quantification of rainbow trout P4501A1 protein levels between ISF- and βNF-treated fish indicate that important differences exist between the responses induced by βNF and ISF treatments in the rainbow trout liver.  相似文献

The hepatic CYP1A1 (ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) and protein level) in rainbow trout and eelpout was induced by isosafrole, β-naphthoflavone, 3,3′,4,4′-tetrachlorobiphenyl and mixtures of two of the compounds. A potentiation effect of the CYP1A1 response was observed when isosafrole was given together with β-naphthoflavone, but not when isosafrole was given with 3,3′,4,4′-tetrachlorobiphenyl.  相似文献

Purification of cytochromes P-450 from liver microsomes of β-naphthoflavone (BNF)-fed rainbow trout yielded three apparently homogeneous forms. The major form (LM4b)* appears to be a P-448 type of cytochrome. A minor form (LM4a), having properties very similar to LM4b, was also obtained. In addition, a P-450 form (LM2) was isolated, with properties quite different from LM4a or LM4b, including a high rate of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) metabolism (Williams & Buhler, 1983c). Antibodies to all three forms were obtained from rabbits. The IgGs prepared against LM4a and LM4b both cross-reacted (forming lines of identity) equally well with both antigens on Ouchterlony plates. Rat P-448 cross-reacted (without lines of identity) with both LM4a- and LM4b-IgG. LM4b-IgG was much more effective than LM4a-IgG for inhibition of LM4a or LM4b reconstituted benzo[a]pyrene (BP) hydroxylase, suggesting that these two antibodies recognize different antigenic sites. The LM2-IgG did not cross-react with any of the other rat or trout cytochromes P-450 examined. Levels of LM2 and LM4b in microsomes from untreated, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), phenobarbital (PB) or BNF-treated trout were estimated with an immunological technique involving electrophoresis on SDS-PAGE, followed by transfer to nitrocellulose and staining with either LM 2 - or LM4b -IgG. The ratio of in microsomes from PCB- or BNF-treated rainbow trout was much higher than 1, whereas the reverse was true with microsomes from untreated rainbow trout. These results are consistent with previous observations (Vodicnik et al., 1982) that pretreatment with BNF induced the synthesis of a P-448 type cyytochrome, presumably responsible for the great increase in the metabolism and activation of BP seen in these fish. Conversely, pretreatment with PB did not affect the levels of either LM2 or LM4b. This specific immunological technique should make it possible to assay the levels of these P-450 and P-448 isozymes in various strains of rainbow trout and other species of fish. In addition, the effect of age, sex, diet and exposure to P-450 and P-448 inducers could be examined and, perhaps, utilized to predict the relative risk of certain populations to pollutants activated by these different isozymes.  相似文献

尽管与性别决定和分化的相关基因在二倍体虹鳟中已被鉴定出来,如Cyp19a1a、Foxl2、Dmrt1、Amh和Sox9,但关于三倍体雌性虹鳟独特性腺表型及其相关性别控制基因的表达规律仍未得到深入研究,尤其是早期卵巢发育阻滞导致的生殖细胞去分化特征。因此,本研究以三倍体雌性虹鳟性腺发育中起重要调控作用的特异候选基因作为重点研究对象,辅助性腺体细胞与生殖细胞分化方向的组织学证据和类固醇激素表达规律,验证了各基因间的级联调控关系。结果表明,虹鳟三倍体与二倍体卵巢的分化特征基本一致。虹鳟二倍体与三倍体性腺分别在84dpf和98dpf就已分化为卵巢。但三倍体虹鳟卵巢分化存在障碍,早期发育停滞,卵原细胞及其滤泡细胞数量有限。Foxl2和Cyp19a1a在二倍体虹鳟卵巢和精巢中均有表达,它们在卵巢中表达量均呈逐渐升高趋势,但在精巢中的表达量非常低;这两个基因在雌性三倍体虹鳟性腺中的表达呈先升高后降低的趋势,其表达量均在8月龄时期达到最大。Dmrt1、Amh和Sox9在二倍体精巢和雌性三倍体卵巢中的表达均呈不断上调趋势,这些基因上调可能与血清睾酮含量的增加相关,因为在10月龄时期这两种鱼的血清含量相对较高,而这三个基因在二倍体虹鳟卵巢中的表达却呈下调趋势。因此本研究认为,维持鱼类卵巢分化需要持续高水平的雌激素,这可能是脊椎动物进化过程中的一个保守特征。可以推断雌性三倍体虹鳟卵巢滞育将导致其体细胞去分化,这对于Cyp19a1a表达及雌二醇合成存在抑制作用。因为这些雌激素是用来维持它们分化和继续发育的,可能产生一个负反馈圈,之后去分化会增强。  相似文献

Cytochrome P-450 monooxygenases catalyze the biotransformation of a great variety of foreign, as well as endogenous, lipid-soluble compounds to more water-soluble products. As in mammals, highest concentration of cytochrome P-450 in fish is found in the liver. However, previous studies have indicated that fish kidney contains relatively high cytochrome P-450-mediated activities.1,2 We have therefore prepared and characterized subcellular fractions from the kidney of rainbow trout suitable for studies on cytochrome P-450-dependent reactions. Furthermore, as in the liver, several cytochrome P-450-mediated reactions in the kidney were induced following treatment of the fish with β-naphthoflavone.  相似文献

Effects of cadmium exposure on plasma levels of calcitonin and free and protein-bound calcium were studied in vitellogenic female rainbow trout kept in brackish water (7%(.)). Fish were exposed to 100 μg cadmium litre−1 for four weeks. Exposure of female rainbow trout in the stage of vitellogenesis, with increased total plasma levels of calcium, resulted in a complex hypocalcemic response. Thus, hypocalcemia was found to be due to three different processes: (1) a decrease in the free plasma calcium, and a reduction in protein-bound calcium; due both to (2) decreased plasma levels of vitellogenin; and (3) a reduced binding of calcium to vitellogenin. These findings support the concept of an interference of cadmium with ionregulating tissues as a mechanism for hypocalcemia in rainbow trout. A direct effect on the vitellogenin-binding of calcium was also observed and reproductive function in the females was affected by decreased plasma levels of vitellogenin. In spite of the marked changes of plasma calcium in exposed fish, no significant effects on plasma calcitonin were observed, indicating a lack of a direct relationship between plasma calcium and calcitonin levels in rainbow trout.  相似文献

The degree of induction of hepatic cytochrome P-450 monooxygenases in fish by various chemicals may vary owing to many factors such as sex, sexual maturity, age, season and environmental temperature. In the present investigation the influences of gonadal steroids and water temperature on the inductive response were studied. The data indicate that gonadal steroids and water temperature modulate the response of the cytochrome P-450 system in rainbow trout to PCB and β-naphthoflavone.  相似文献

The estrogenicity of several xenobiotics was evaluated using in vivo vitellogenin (Vtg) synthesis in immature rainbow trout as a biomarker. 17β-estradiol, DES and ethinyl estradiol were tested as positive controls. The xenobiotic compounds tested were technical nonylphenol, bisphenol A, butylbenzylphthalate (BBP) and dibutylphthalate (DBF). Measurements of the Vtg concentration was performed with a direct sandwich ELISA. 17β-estradiol, DES and ethinyl estradiol caused up to 100 000-fold increases in the Vtg-levels. Nonylphenol and bisphenol A had the highest estrogenic potency of the xenobiotics increasing the vitellogenin level approximately 300-fold while BBP was only weakly estrogenic, increasing the concentration about 3 times. DPB did not raise the vitellogenin contration above the detection limit.  相似文献

In order to examine factors that may contribute to the reported resistance of rainbow trout, Shasta strain, to the well-known hepatocarcinogenic effects of 2-acetylaminofluorene (AAF), the in-vitro and in-vivo metabolism of [14C]AAF in trout has been examined. Trout (compared to rat) liver microsomes metabolized AAF more efficiently, producing 3-fold larger amounts of ring-hydroxylated metabolites (7-hydroxy-AAF and 5-hydroxy-AAF), but 5-fold less N-hydroxy-AAF. Freshly isolated trout hepatocytes extensively metabolized AAF to form the same ring-hydroxylated metabolites and their respective glucuronide and sulfate conjugates. N-OH-AAF (plus its conjugates) and covalently-bound AAF derivatives amounted, respectively, to < 1% and 1.4–1.6% of total metabolites. Liver DNA of trout treated with AAF contained a single AAF-DNA adduct identified as N-(deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-2-aminofluorene (the major persistent AAF-DNA adduct found in rat liver). The level of this adduct (12 attomoles/μg DNA) was about 1000-fold lower than the level of AAF-DNA adduct previously reported in rat liver. The data show that trout liver, compared to rat liver, is considerably less efficient in metabolizing AAF to carcinogenic metabolites, and more efficient in forming nontoxic products, thus possibly explaining, in part, the resistance of trout to AAF-induced hepatocarcinogenesis.  相似文献

We are investigating the effects of in vivo exposure of prototypical enzyme inducing agents on hepatic biotransformation enzyme expression in largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), a predatory game fish found throughout the United States and Canada. The current study targeted those genes involved in biotransformation and oxidative stress that may be regulated by Ah-receptor-dependent pathways. Exposure of bass to β-naphthoflavone (β-NF, 66 mg/kg, i.p.) elicited a 7–9-fold increase in hepatic microsomal cytochrome P4501A-dependent ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) activities, but did not affect cytosolic GST catalytic activities toward 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) or 5-androstene-3,17-dione (ADI). Glutathione S-transferase A (GST-A) mRNA expression exhibited a transient, but non-significant increase following exposure to β-NF, and generally tracked the minimal changes observed in GST–CDNB activities. Expression of the mRNA encoding glutamate-cysteine ligase catalytic subunit (GCLC), the rate-limiting enzyme in glutathione (GSH) biosynthesis, was increased 1.7-fold by β-NF. Changes in GCLC mRNA expression were paralleled by increases in intracellular GSH. In summary, largemouth bass hepatic CYP1A-dependent and GSH biosynthetic pathways, and to a lesser extent GST, are responsive to exposure to β-NF.  相似文献

Rainbow trout hepatocytes were isolated by a two step perfusion technique and maintained either in monolayer culture for 5 days or in aggregate culture for 30 days. Cytochrome P450 content decreased from day 0 to day 5 in both culture systems, and then was preserved at the same level after one month in aggregated cells. 7-Ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) and UDP-glucuronosyl transferase were not significantly different in freshly isolated cells and in 30-day aggregated hepatocytes, whereas a substantial increase in glutathione S-transferase was observed. Two-day exposure of cells to β-naphthoflavone led to a significant increase in EROD activity in both culture systems, especially after one month of aggregation (10-fold increase). According to these results, aggregate culture of rainbow trout hepatocytes seems to be a promising in vitro model to investigate the biotransformation pathways in fish and their regulation by endogenous and exogenous compounds.  相似文献

Monoclonal antibody directed against a major β-naphthoflavone (BNF)-induced form of teleost cytochrome P-450, P-450E (equivalent to P-450c in rat) was used to immunolocalize this enzyme in liver, gill and heart of scup and trout. Liver sections from both species showed P-450E in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes. No regional differences were observed which might indicate zonation of cytochrome P-450E within subpopulations of hepatocytes. Scup exocrine pancreatic cells were only weakly positive. In the gill of both fish, cytochrome P-450E was restricted to the endothelium (pillar cells) of secondary lamellae, where fluorescence appeared as a chain in longitudinal sections through lamellae and as star-shaped clusters in en face views. Sections of ventricular wall in both species revealed P-450E was restricted to endothelium at margins of muscle bands limiting heart ventricular lumen. Localization in the specific cells of these and other organs may be fundamentally important in understanding the role of cytochrome P-450E.  相似文献

Metallothionein has previously been shown to be regulated during the period of exogenous vitellogenesis (Olsson et al. (1987); Fish Physiol, Biochem., 3(1), 39–47). Following estradiol injection of rainbow trout it has been shown that hepatic metallothionein remains at basal levels until the vitellogenin mRNA levels begin to decline and Zn is released from high-molecular-weight proteins (Olsson et al. (1989); Biochem.J., 257, 555–559), In the present study the effects of estradiol treatment on the metal-inducibility of metallothionein have been investigated. Estradiol-treated fish that were injected with low doses of cadmium or zinc did not respond by induction of metallothionein.  相似文献

The appearance of the egg-yolk protein vitellogenin (Vg) in plasma of male fish is a sensitive indicator of exposure to estrogenic compounds. We have been studying the kinetics of Vg formation and excretion in rainbow trout with a goal towards developing an integrated pharmacokinetic–pharmcodynamic (PK–PD) model to quantitatively relate cumulative estrogenic exposure of fish to the expression and appearance of Vg in plasma. We administered graded doses of ethynylestradiol (EE2), o,p-DDT, DDD and DDE and octylphenol to male rainbow trout via a dorsal aortic cannula which allowed repetitive blood sampling from individual fish for up to 48 days after injection. The plasma concentrations of the xenobiotics and Vg were simultaneously quantified using ELISA and GC–MS or GC–ECD. In separate experiments, sexually mature trout were exposed to graded water concentrations of EE2 for 3 months and various parameters indicative of the functional status of the male reproductive system determined. These parameters included tissue-somatic indices, histopathological evaluation, spermatocrit, sperm motility (quantified using computer-assisted-motion analysis) and viability of semen based on fertilization assays using eggs harvested from untreated trout. Results from fertilization assays indicated that 12 week exposure to EE2 concentrations of 10 and 100 ng/l caused a 50% reduction in the fertilization rate of semen harvested from exposed trout. PK–PD modeling strategies proved valuable tools for linking chemical exposures to Vg formation.  相似文献
