Popis: Cytochrome P-450 induction in hepatic microsomes after injections of rats with a fluorocarbon emulsion containing perfluorodecalin was studied in comparison with phenobarbital and methylcholanthrene type inductions. It was shown that perfluorodecalin injection as well as the phenobarbital one cause an increase in the cytochrome P-450 content, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity, the rates of benzphetamine N-demethylation and aldrin epoxidation in the microsomes. Using the Ouchterlony double immunodiffusion test with antibodies against cytochrome P-450b, an immunological identity of cytochrome P-450 isoforms during perfluorodecalin and phenobarbital inductions was shown. Upon "rocket" immunoelectrophoresis the recovery of cytochrome P-450 which is immunologically indistinguishable from cytochrome P-450b was approximately 72% in perfluorodecalin-induced microsomes. The activity of benzphetamine demethylase and aldrin epoxidase was inhibited by antibodies against cytochrome P-450b. These results suggest that in rat hepatic microsomes perfluorodecalin induces the cytochrome P-450 isoform whose immunological properties and substrate specificity correspond to those of phenobarbital-type cytochrome P-450.
