  • Title: Identification of the forms of cytochrome P-450 induced in rat liver by 2-acetylaminofluorene using immunoblotting and partial purification.
    Author: Aström A, DePierre JW.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1985 Apr 30; 128(2):578-85. PubMed ID: 3888218.
    Abstract:
    The amounts of 5 different forms of cytochrome P-450 in liver microsomes from rats treated with 2-acetylaminofluorene were determined and compared with the corresponding patterns in microsomes from control, 3-methylcholanthrene- and phenobarbital-treated animals. 2-Acetylaminofluorene was found to increase the amount of cytochromes P-450b + e 10-fold and of cytochrome P-450d 3-fold, while there was a 54% increase in the level of cytochrome P-450 PB/PCN-E. Cytochrome P-450c was increased from a level too low to detect (less than 0.001 pmol/mg protein) to 0.019 pmol/mg protein. These findings were also confirmed by partial purification of cytochromes P-450b + e and c after 2-acetylaminofluorene treatment.
