Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) plays important roles in the regulation and induction of xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes including the cytochromes P450 1 family (CYP1) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases 1A (UGT1As) by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as well as chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons. To determine whether pyrene-induced xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes are regulated by AhR, male AhR (+/+) and (-/-) mice were used. Both genotyped mice were exposed to 0, 205, 300 or 410 mg/(kg day pyrene), once daily, for four consecutive days by gavage. Exposure to pyrene did not influence hepatic CYP1A1-mRNA in mice of both genotypes, whereas it induced hepatic CYP1A2 protein and mRNA expression and associated 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase and pyrene 1-hydroxylation activities in both AhR (+/+) and (-/-) mice. Similar effects were also found with sulfotransferase 1A1 expression and the associated 1-hydroxypyrene sulfation activity. In contrast, pyrene exposure increased expression of the UGT1A1 and 1A6, and glucuronidation activities associated with 1-hydroxypyrene and 1-naphthol in the liver only in AhR (-/-) mice, although pyrene treatment dose-dependently decreased the latter activity. Pyrene exposure did not increase AhR-mRNA expression in AhR (+/+) mice. In contrast, pyrene-induced expression of the hepatic constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) and one of its target genes, CYP2B10, in both AhR (+/+) and (-/-) mice. These results strongly suggest that pyrene-induced CYP1A2 and SULT1A1 are regulated by CAR, not by AhR. However, the mechanisms of UGT1A1 and 1A6 induction by pyrene were not elucidated in this study. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
