产品描述

Dibenzylfluorescein is a fluorogenic probe that acts as a substrate for specific cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms, including CYP3A4, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and aromatase (CYP19). [1] [2] [3] Dibenzylfluorescein is dealkylated by these CYP isoforms to produce fluorescein benzyl ether, which is further hydrolyzed to fluorescein by the addition of base (typically 2 M NaOH). [3] Dibenzylfluorescein is typically used near its apparent Km value of 0.87-1.9 µM. [1] [2] [3] The fluorescence of fluorescein is evaluated using excitation/emission wavelengths of 485/538 nm. Dibenzylfluorescein is used to detect changes in CYP catalytic activity caused by drugs or disease.[1] [4]

Genetic diversity of cytochrome P450 3A with different metabolic activity in domestic cats

J Vet Med Sci 2019 Apr 16;81(4):598-600.PMID:30828039DOI:10.1292/jvms.18-0692.

Knowledge on genetic polymorphisms of metabolising enzymes including cytochrome P450 (CYP) is very limited in cats. We investigated polymorphisms in CYP3A131, one of the major CYP isoforms in the feline liver and small intestine. Eight non-synonymous variants and one synonymous variant of feline CYP3A131 were identified in 29 cats. A major non-synonymous type was not observed. Metabolic parameters (Km and Vmax) of Dibenzylfluorescein hydroxylation were ranged within about 2 times for the identified non-synonymous variants by using a heterologous coexpression system of CYP3A131 and feline cytochrome P450 reductase in Escherichia coli. The results confirmed the polymorphic nature of CYP3A131 as a basis for effective application of medicines and prevention of adverse reactions in the treatment of domestic cats.

Assessment of the Aromatase Inhibitory Activity of Ma-Huang-Tang (MHT) and Its Active Compounds

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med 2019 Dec 18;2019:4809846.PMID:31929813DOI:10.1155/2019/4809846.

Aromatase, a cytochrome P450 enzyme that converts androgens into estrogens, is an important drug target for hormone-dependent diseases. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the aromatase inhibitory effects of Ma-Huang-Tang (MHT), a traditional Korean herbal medicine prescription, and to identify its active ingredients. In this study, the inhibitory effect of MHT on aromatase activity was observed using Dibenzylfluorescein (DBF) and KGN cells, and the dose-dependent effect of MHT was verified (IC50 values of 251 μg/mL and 246 μg/mL as determined by the two methods, respectively). Furthermore, among the six herbal medicines that constitute MHT, Ephedrae Herba, Cinnamomi Ramulus, and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma showed the most potent inhibition of aromatase activity. Furthermore, upon identification of the active MHT compounds, three markers from Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, liquiritin (5), liquiritin apioside (6), and liquiritigenin (7), were verified (IC50 values of 530 μM, 508 μM, and 1.611 mM and 499 μM, 522 μM, and 1.41 mM as determined by the two methods, respectively). In addition, their contents were confirmed to be 15.58, 19.80, and 2.22 mg/g, respectively, by HPLC/DAD analysis. These results indicate that the aromatase inhibitory effect of MHT results from the synergistic action of its active components and that MHT has potential as a preventive agent against aromatase activity.

Molecular basis for the interaction of four different classes of substrates and inhibitors with human aromatase

Biochem Pharmacol 2008 Mar 1;75(5):1161-9.PMID:18184606DOI:10.1016/j.bcp.2007.11.010.

Aromatase cytochrome P450 (CYP19) converts androgen to estrogen. In this study, the interactions of four classes of compounds, 17beta-estradiol (the product of aromatase), 17-methyltestosterone (a synthetic androgen), Dibenzylfluorescein (a synthetic substrate of aromatase), and coumestrol (a phytoestrogen), with aromatase were investigated through spectral analysis using purified human recombinant aromatase and site-directed mutagenesis studies using CHO cells expressing wild-type human aromatase or five aromatase mutants, E302D, D309A, T310S, S478T and H480Q. Spectral analysis showed that a type I binding spectrum was produced by the binding of 17-methyltestosterone to aromatase and a novel binding spectrum of aromatase was induced by Dibenzylfluorescein. Mutagenesis experiments demonstrated that residues S478 and H480 in the beta-4 sheet play an important role in the binding of all four compounds. Computer-assisted docking of these compounds into the three-dimensional model of aromatase revealed that: (1) weak interaction between 17beta-estradiol and the beta-4 sheet of aromatase facilitates the release of 17beta-estradiol from the active site of aromatase; (2) 17-methyl group of 17-methyltestosterone affects its binding to aromatase; (3) Dibenzylfluorescein binds to the active site of aromatase with its O-dealkylation site near the heme iron and residue T310; and (4) coumestrol binds to aromatase in a manner such that rings A and C of coumestrol mimic rings A and B of steroid. These structure-function studies help us to evaluate the structural model of aromatase, and to accelerate the structure-based design for new aromatase inhibitors.

Synthesis, Aromatase Inhibitory, Antiproliferative and Molecular Modeling Studies of Functionally Diverse D-Ring Pregnenolone Pyrazoles

Anticancer Agents Med Chem 2021;21(13):1671-1679.PMID:33238853DOI:10.2174/1871520620999201124213655.

Background: Aromatase, a cytochrome P450 hemoprotein that is responsible for estrogen biosynthesis by conversion of androgens into estrogens, has been an attractive target in the treatment of hormonedependent breast cancer. Design of new steroidal aromatase inhibitors becomes imperative. Objective: Synthesis and biological evaluation of two classes of structurally and functionally diverse D-ring pregnenolone pyrazoles as type I aromatase inhibitors and antiproliferative agents. Methods: Pregnenolone (1) was converted to 3β-hydroxy-21-hydroxymethylidenepregn-5-en-20-one (2), which upon cyclization with phenylhydrazine generated regioisomeric pairs of pyrazoles 4 and 5. Further, Knoevenagel condensation of pregnenolone (1) with 3-oxo-3-phenylpropanenitrile (6) produced 2-benzoyl-3-(3b-hydroxyandrostan- 5-ene-20-ylidene)-but-2-enenitrile (7), which upon cyclization with hydrazine or phenylhydrazine generated the pyrazoles 8 and 9. All new steroidal derivatives were tested for their aromatase inhibition activity using Dibenzylfluorescein (DBF) based fluorescence assay developed by Stresser et al. Antiproliferative activities were measured using Sulforhodamine B assay. The activities were promising and there was a coherence between aromatase inhibitory and antiproliferative activities. Results: The study reveals the immense potential of pregnenolone pyrazoles as aromatase inhibitors for the treatment of breast cancer. Molecular docking studies proved efficient binding of the new steroidal analogs on human placental aromatase. Conclusion: In the overall study, most of the compounds exhibited potential activity for the treatment of hormone dependent breast cancer. Compounds 4c and 4d were found to be the most promising pharmacons. Furthermore, compounds 4c and 4d were applied for their molecular docking study on human placental aromatase to predict their possible binding modes with the enzyme. These studies revealed that such molecules have high scope and potential for further investigation towards the treatment of estrogen dependent breast cancer.

Cree antidiabetic plant extracts display mechanism-based inactivation of CYP3A4

Can J Physiol Pharmacol 2011 Jan;89(1):13-23.PMID:21186373DOI:10.1139/y10-104.

Seventeen Cree antidiabetic medicinal plants were studied to determine their potential to inhibit cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) through mechanism-based inactivation (MBI). The ethanolic extracts of the medicinal plants were studied for their inhibition of CYP3A4 using the substrates testosterone and Dibenzylfluorescein (DBF) in high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and microtiter fluorometric assays, respectively. Using testosterone as a substrate, extracts of Alnus incana, Sarracenia purpurea, and Lycopodium clavatum were identified as potent CYP3A4 MBIs, while those from Abies balsamea, Picea mariana, Pinus banksiana, Rhododendron tomentosum, Kalmia angustifolia, and Picea glauca were identified as less potent inactivators. Not unexpectedly, the other substrate, DBF, showed a different profile of inhibition. Only A. balsamea was identified as a CYP3A4 MBI using DBF. Abies balsamea displayed both NADPH- and time-dependence of CYP3A4 inhibition using both substrates. Overall, several of the medicinal plants may markedly deplete CYP3A4 through MBI and, consequently, decrease the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates including numerous medications used by diabetics.
