title: Selective induction of renal microsomal cytochrome P-450-linked monooxygenases by 1,1-dichloroethylene in mice.
abstract: Intraperitoneal administration of a single dose of 1,1-dichloroethylene (DCE) to C57 B1/6N mice (125 mg/kg) caused a selective 6- to 10-fold increase in renal microsomal 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase ( EROD ) and 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase ( ECOD ), without affecting benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylase activity (AHH) or total microsomal cytochrome P-450 content. The observed increases did not result from in vitro activation of the enzymes or from any analytical artifact. Moreover, studies with actinomycin D and cycloheximide demonstrated that the increases resulted from de novo enzyme synthesis. Maximal enzyme induction was observed after a DCE dose of approximately 125 mg/kg, and the induced enzyme decayed rapidly, returning to control levels in about 3 days. Compared to female mice, male mice had higher basal levels of renal EROD and ECOD and were more responsive to the inductive effects of DCE; this correlated with corresponding differences in microsomal cytochrome P-450 levels. Starvation of mice for 24 or 48 hr increased renal EROD and ECOD activities in both male and female mice, but not the extent observed after DCE. The present results support the view of multiple renal cytochrome P-450 isozymes.
