Expression of cytochrome P450 2C and 3A in female rat liver after long-term administration of gonadoliberin analogs.
Gonadoliberin (GnRH) analogs may be expected to indirectly modify growth hormone (GH) total concentration and its 24-h secretion profile. As a consequence, changes in the levels of GH may modify the mechanism of sex-dependent cytochromes P450 (CYP450) synthesis, including the expression of transcriptional factors. The aim of the study has been to evaluate the effect of long-term administration of a low dose of GnRH analogs on hepatic expression of CYP2C and CYP3A isoforms, and the transcription factors: pregnane X receptor (PXR), hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α), HNF6 and signal transducers and activators of transcription 5b (STAT5b).. The study was carried out on adult female Sprague-Dawley rats during a 3-month treatment with dalarelin (GnRH agonist) and cetrorelix (GnRH antagonist), at a daily intraperitoneal injection (i.p.) dose of 6 μg/kg body weight/day, and 1, 2, and 4 weeks after treatment discontinuation. The concentrations of ovarian hormones and GH in the blood serum were determined by radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method, respectively. Then, the expression of hepatic CYP450s (reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction - RT-PCR, Western blot and immunohistochemistry) and transcription factors (RT-PCR) was evaluated.. We have found that cetrorelix induces changes in the circadian pattern of GH secretion and enhances GH blood concentrations. These changes may cause increased expression of both, female-specific CYP450s (especially CYP3A9), and HNF4α/HNF6 transcription factors. Decrease in GH blood concentrations, resulting from the effect of dalarelin, may promote inhibition of female-specific CYP2C12 and CYP3A9 isoforms as well as STAT5b transcription factor. Slight changes in sex-independent CYP3A1 protein expression caused by GnRH analogs were also observed.. In adult female rats, HNF4α/HNF6 and STAT5b seem to be crucial for the regulation of GnRH antagonist/GH- and GnRH agonist/GH-dependent pattern of CYP450 expression, respectively.
