Characterization of CYP2B6 in a CYP2B6-Humanized Mouse Model: Inducibility in the Liver by Phenobarbital and Dexamethasone and Role in Nicotine Metabolism In Vivo

Abstract: The aim of this study was to further characterize the expression and function of human CYP2B6 in a recently generated CYP2A13/ 2B6/2F1-transgenic (TG) mouse model, in which CYP2B6 is expressed selectively in the liver. The inducibility of CYP2B6 by phenobarbital (PB) and dexamethasone (DEX), known inducers of CYP2B6 in human liver, was examined in the TG mice, as well as in TG/Cyp2abfgs-null (or "CYP2B6-humanized") mice. Hepatic expression of CYP2B6 mRNA and protein was greatly induced by PB or DEX treatment i… Show more

“…The CYP2A antibody-inhibition data ( Figure 1B ) further supports these conclusions, and allays any suspicion that the activity difference between the two humanized mouse models was due to contribution by CYP2B6. CYP2B6 has weak activity toward NA ( Cho et al 2006 ); however, although the CYP2A13/2F1-humanized mouse harbors a functional CYP2B6 gene, CYP2B6 protein was not detected in the lung or OM of the TG mouse, with a detection limit of microsomal protein ( Liu et al 2015 ). It should also be noted that the apparent kinetic parameters determined for lung microsomes may underestimate activities in specific cell types, such as Club cells, which are known to contain higher levels of many P450 enzymes than parenchymal tissue ( Baldwin et al 2004 ; Lakritz et al 1996 ) and may thus possess much greater catalytic efficiency ( ) toward NA bioactivation.…”

“…Given the known differences in human vs. rodent metabolism of PCBs [87,[253][254][255][256][257], it will be important to address species differences in translating data from rodent models to human risk. One potential approach for overcoming this challenge would be to use "humanized" mice [258][259][260][261][262][263] that not only express relevant human cytochrome p450 isoforms [87,[264][265][266] but also lack expression of rodent cytochrome P450 enzymes involved in PCB metabolism. Another critical gap is whether the in vitro effects of PCB 11 on neuronal morphogenesis [49,125] translate to the intact developing brain and whether they can be generalized to other contemporary lower-chlorinated PCBs found at relatively high abundance in the serum of pregnant women, such as PCB 28 [37].…”

“…To circumvent the species differences in drug disposition and to create models that more closely reflect human drug response, a number of humanized mouse lines have been reported. In some cases these have also involved humanization for both CAR and PXR (Gong et al, 2005; Dragin et al, 2007; Gonzalez, 2007; Ross et al, 2010; Scheer et al, 2010, 2012a,b, 2015; Scheer and Wolf, 2014; Durmus et al, 2015; Liu et al, 2015). These models have usually also involved the deletion of genes in the orthologous murine gene family.…”
