Piperine effects on the expression of P4502E1, P4502B and P4501A in rat.
1. Treatment of rat with piperine (PIP) (1.4 mmol/kg, 3 days ip injections) resulted in an approximate two-fold increase in total liver microsomal P450 content relative to that in uninduced animals. 2. 4-Nitrophenol and aniline hyroxylase activities in the hepatic microsomes prepared from rat treated with PIP decreased by 30 and 28% respectively as compared with control. Immunoblot analyses also revealed decreased P4502E1 levels in hepatic microsomes from PIP-treated animals. 3. In contrast with P4502E1 suppression, hepatic 2B1 and 2B2 levels were significantly increased in PIP-induced animals, as evidence by both metabolic activity and immunoblot analysis of the liver microsomal fractions. The rate of hexobarbital hydroxylase activity in microsomes from PIP-treated animals was markedly elevated and was inhibited by approximately 62% in the presence of monoclonal anti-P4502B IgG. Immunoblot analyses demonstrated that P4502B1 and 2B2 levels in hepatic microsomes from PIP-treated animals were comparable with those from phenobarbital-treated animals. 4. 7-Ethoxycoumarin deethylase activity was elevated approximately two-fold in PIP-induced animals and was 17% of that derived from 3-methylcholanthrene-induced animals. 7-ethoxycoumarin deethylase activity in PIP-induced hepatic microsomes was inhibited 63% in the presence of monoclonal anti-P4501A antibody. Immunoblot analysis confirmed the increase in P4501A levels by PIP, which was 15% of that in hepatic microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-induced animals. 5. PIP treatment failed to affect microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH) and glutathione S-transferases (GST) expression, as indicated by immunoblot analyses using polyclonal antibodies toward mEH and GST subunits Ya, Yb1, Yb2 and Yc. 6. These results demonstrate that PIP treatment suppressed P4502E1 expression and enhanced 2B and 1A expression, whereas this agent failed to affect hepatic mEH and GST expression.
