1 Oral benzo[a]pyrene in Cyp1 knockout mouse lines: CYP1A1 important in detoxication, CYP1B1 metabolism required for immune damage independent of total-body burden and clearance rate. Benzo(a)pyrene cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily a, polypeptide 1 Mus musculus
2 CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 metabolically activate many polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), including benzo[a]pyrene, to reactive intermediates associated with toxicity, mutagenesis, and carcinogenesis. Benzo(a)pyrene cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily a, polypeptide 1 Mus musculus
3 After administration of oral benzo[a]pyrene (125 mg/kg/day) for 18 days, Cyp1a1-/- mice showed marked wasting, immunosuppression, and bone marrow hypocellularity, whereas the other five genotypes did not. Benzo(a)pyrene cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily a, polypeptide 1 Mus musculus
4 After 5 days of feeding, steady-state blood levels of benzo[a]pyrene were approximately 25 and approximately 75 times higher in Cyp1a1-/- and Cyp1a1/1b1-/- mice, respectively, than in wild-type mice. Benzo(a)pyrene cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily a, polypeptide 1 Mus musculus
5 After 5 days of feeding, steady-state blood levels of benzo[a]pyrene were approximately 25 and approximately 75 times higher in Cyp1a1-/- and Cyp1a1/1b1-/- mice, respectively, than in wild-type mice. Benzo(a)pyrene cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily a, polypeptide 1 Mus musculus
6 Benzo[a]pyrene-DNA adduct levels were highest in liver, spleen, and marrow of Cyp1a1-/- and Cyp1a1/1b1-/- mice. Benzo(a)pyrene cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily a, polypeptide 1 Mus musculus
7 Benzo[a]pyrene-DNA adduct levels were highest in liver, spleen, and marrow of Cyp1a1-/- and Cyp1a1/1b1-/- mice. Benzo(a)pyrene cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily a, polypeptide 1 Mus musculus
8 Thus, a balance between tissue-specific expression of the CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 enzymes governs sensitivity of benzo[a]pyrene toxicity and, possibly, carcinogenicity. Benzo(a)pyrene cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily a, polypeptide 1 Mus musculus
