The effect of new atypical antipsychotic drugs on the expression of transcription factors regulating cytochrome P450 enzymes in rat liver.

Background: Our recent studies showed that prolonged administration of novel atypical antipsychotics affected the expression and activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP), as demonstrated in vitro on human hepatocytes and in vivo on the rat liver. The aim of the present work was to study the effect of repeated treatment with asenapine, iloperidone, and lurasidone on the expression of transcription factors regulating CYP drug-metabolizing enzymes in rat liver.

Methods: The hepatic mRNA (qRT-PCR) and protein levels (Western blotting) of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), pregnane X receptor (PXR), constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPARγ) were measured in male Wistar rats after 2 week-treatment with asenapine, iloperidone or lurasidone.

The Novel Atypical Antipsychotic Lurasidone Affects Cytochrome P450 Expression in the Liver and Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes.

Lurasidone is a novel atypical antipsychotic drug acting on dopaminergic, serotonergic and noradrenergic receptors; it is applied for the long-term treatment of schizophrenia and depression in patients with bipolar disorders. We aimed at performing a comparative study on the influence of chronic treatment with lurasidone on the expression of cytochrome P450 enzymes in the liver and in peripheral blood lymphocytes, and to evaluate the relationship between changes in the expression of CYP enzymes in the two experimental models. The obtained results show a fairly similar expression pattern of the main CYP enzymes in the rat livers and lymphocytes, and they indicate that in the liver, lurasidone exerts an inhibitory effect on the activity, protein and mRNA levels of CYP2B1/2 (not mRNA), CYP2C11 and CYP2E1, while in the case of CYP3A1 and CYP3A2, it causes enzyme induction.

The effect of brain serotonin deficit (TPH2-KO) on the expression and activity of liver cytochrome P450 enzymes in aging male Dark Agouti rats.

Background: Liver cytochrome P450 (CYP) greatly contributes to the metabolism of endogenous substances and drugs. Recent studies have demonstrated that CYP expression in the liver is controlled by the central nervous system via hormonal pathways. In particular, the expression of hepatic CYPs is negatively regulated by the brain serotoninergic system.

Hematopoietic stem cells undergo a lymphoid to myeloid switch in early stages of emergency granulopoiesis.

Emergency granulopoiesis is the enhanced and accelerated production of granulocytes that occurs during acute infection. The contribution of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to this process was reported; however, how HSCs participate in emergency granulopoiesis remains elusive. Here, using a mouse model of emergency granulopoiesis we observe transcriptional changes in HSCs as early as 4 h after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration.

Ppm1d truncating mutations promote the development of genotoxic stress-induced AML.

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) ensure blood cell production during the life-time of an organism, and to do so they need to balance self-renewal, proliferation, differentiation, and migration in a steady state as well as in response to stress or injury. Importantly, aberrant proliferation of HSCs leads to hematological malignancies, and thus, tight regulation by various tumor suppressor pathways, including p53, is essential. Protein phosphatase magnesium-dependent 1 delta (PPM1D) is a negative regulator of p53 and promotes cell survival upon induction of genotoxic stress.

Perturbed fatty-acid metabolism is linked to localized chromatin hyperacetylation, increased stress-response gene expression and resistance to oxidative stress.

Oxidative stress is associated with cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, cancer, psychiatric disorders and aging. In order to counteract, eliminate and/or adapt to the sources of stress, cells possess elaborate stress-response mechanisms, which also operate at the level of regulating transcription. Interestingly, it is becoming apparent that the metabolic state of the cell and certain metabolites can directly control the epigenetic information and gene expression.

The Effect of the Selective N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) Receptor GluN2B Subunit Antagonist CP-101,606 on Cytochrome P450 2D (CYP2D) Expression and Activity in the Rat Liver and Brain.

The CYP2D enzymes of the cytochrome P450 superfamily play an important role in psychopharmacology, since they are engaged in the metabolism of psychotropic drugs and endogenous neuroactive substrates, which mediate brain neurotransmission and the therapeutic action of those drugs. The aim of this work was to study the effect of short- and long-term treatment with the selective antagonist of the GluN2B subunit of the NMDA receptor, the compound CP-101,606, which possesses antidepressant properties, on CYP2D expression and activity in the liver and brain of male rats. The presented work shows time-, organ- and brain-structure-dependent effects of 5-day and 3-week treatment with CP-101,606 on CYP2D.

The impact of noradrenergic neurotoxin DSP-4 and noradrenaline transporter knockout (NET-KO) on the activity of liver cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) in male and female mice.

Background: Our earlier studies have shown that the brain noradrenergic system regulates cytochrome P450 (CYP) in rat liver via neuroendocrine mechanism. In the present work, a comparative study on the effect of intraperitoneal administration of the noradrenergic neurotoxin DSP-4 and the knockout of noradrenaline transporter (NET-KO) on the CYP3A in the liver of male and female mice was performed.

Methods: The experiments were conducted on C57BL/6J WT and NET male/female mice.

The mechanisms of interactions of psychotropic drugs with liver and brain cytochrome P450 and their significance for drug effect and drug-drug interactions.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) plays an important role in psychopharmacology. While liver CYP enzymes are responsible for the biotransformation of psychotropic drugs, brain CYP enzymes are involved in the local metabolism of these drugs and endogenous neuroactive substances, such as neurosteroids, and in alternative pathways of neurotransmitter biosynthesis including dopamine and serotonin. Recent studies have revealed a relation between the brain nervous system and cytochrome P450, indicating that CYP enzymes metabolize endogenous neuroactive substances in the brain, while the brain nervous system is engaged in the central neuroendocrine and neuroimmune regulation of cytochrome P450 in the liver.

Long-Term Treatment with Atypical Antipsychotic Iloperidone Modulates Cytochrome P450 2D (CYP2D) Expression and Activity in the Liver and Brain via Different Mechanisms.

enzymes engage in the synthesis of endogenous neuroactive substances (dopamine, serotonin) and in the metabolism of neurosteroids. The present work investigates the effect of iloperidone on CYP2D enzyme expression and activity in rat brains and livers. Iloperidone exerted a weak direct inhibitory effect on CYP2D activity in vitro in the liver and brain microsomes (K = 11.

Hillslope Processes Affect Vessel Lumen Area and Tree Dimensions.

The height growth of the trees depends on sufficient mechanical support given by the stem and an effective hydraulic system. On unstable slopes, tree growth is affected by soil pressure from above and potential soil erosion from below the position of tree. The necessary stabilization is then provided by the production of mechanically stronger wood of reduced hydraulic conductivity.

Cytochrome P450 2D (CYP2D) enzyme dysfunction associated with aging and serotonin deficiency in the brain and liver of female Dark Agouti rats.

Among the enzymes that support brain metabolism, cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes occupy an important place. These enzymes catalyze the biotransformation pathways of neuroactive endogenous substrates (neurosteroids, neurotransmitters) and are necessary for the detoxification processes. The aim of the present study was to assess changes in the CYP2D activity and protein level during the aging process and as a result of serotonin deficiency in the female brain.

The Effect of Chronic Iloperidone Treatment on Cytochrome P450 Expression and Activity in the Rat Liver: Involvement of Neuroendocrine Mechanisms.

In order to achieve a desired therapeutic effect in schizophrenia patients and to maintain their mental wellbeing, pharmacological therapy needs to be continued for a long time, usually from the onset of symptoms and for the rest of the patients' lives. The aim of our present research is to find out the in vivo effect of chronic treatment with atypical neuroleptic iloperidone on the expression and activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP) in rat liver. Male Wistar rats received a once-daily intraperitoneal injection of iloperidone (1 mg/kg) for a period of two weeks.

The Influence of Long-Term Treatment with Asenapine on Liver Cytochrome P450 Expression and Activity in the Rat. The Involvement of Different Mechanisms.

Therapy of schizophrenia requires long-term treatment with a relevant antipsychotic drug to achieve a therapeutic effect. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of prolonged treatment with the atypical neuroleptic asenapine on the expression and activity of rat cytochrome P450 (CYP) in the liver. The experiment was carried out on male Wistar rats.

Asenapine and iloperidone decrease the expression of major cytochrome P450 enzymes CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 in human hepatocytes. A significance for drug-drug interactions during combined therapy.

Antipsychotics are often used in combination with other psychotropic drugs to treat a variety of psychiatric disorders, as well as in combination with other drugs taken by patients with co-morbidities. When these drugs are combined, the potential for drug-drug interaction increases, leading to side-effects, in addition to the predicted increase in effectiveness. The present study aimed at examining the effects of the three atypical neuroleptics asenapine, lurasidone and iloperidone on cytochrome P450 (CYP) expression in the human liver.

Levomepromazine and clozapine induce the main human cytochrome P450 drug metabolizing enzyme CYP3A4.

Background: Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are involved in the metabolism of many important endogenous substrates (steroids, melatonin), drugs and toxic xenobiotics. Their induction accelerates drug metabolism and elimination. The present study aimed at examining the inducing abilities of two antipsychotic drugs levomepromazine and clozapine for the main CYPs.

β-Catenin-TCF/LEF signaling promotes steady-state and emergency granulopoiesis via G-CSF receptor upregulation.

The canonical Wnt signaling pathway is mediated by interaction of β-catenin with the T-cell factor/lymphoid enhancer-binding factor (TCF/LEF) transcription factors and subsequent transcription activation of Wnt-target genes. In the hematopoietic system, the function of the pathway has been mainly investigated by rather unspecific genetic manipulations of β-catenin that yielded contradictory results. Here, we used a mouse expressing a truncated dominant negative form of the human TCF4 transcription factor (dnTCF4) that specifically abrogates β-catenin-TCF/LEF interaction.
