| Abstract | Hepatic CYP1A expression in fish can be modulated by the female sex hormone, 17β-estradiol (E2), however neither the mechanism of E2 suppression of CYP1A nor the capacity for hormonal regulation to overcome CYP1A induction by xenobiotics are known. The present study investigates for the first time in fish if the estrogen receptor (ER) is involved in the suppressive action of E2 on CYP1A gene expression. The study further examines, if the E2 effect is able to overcome xenobiotic induction of CYP1A. As experimental model, in vitro cultures of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchusmykiss, hepatocytes were used. The effect of E2 on CYP1A was assessed by measuring the CYP1A-associated 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) enzyme activity, and CYP1A mRNA contents. E2 at non-cytotoxic concentrations caused a significant time- and concentration-dependent decline of basal but not of induced hepatic EROD activities. The inhibitory action of E2 on basal CYP1A was also evident at the mRNA level. The presence of the ER antagonist tamoxifen abolished the inhibitory action of E2 on CYP1A expression. The results from these in vitro experiments provide evidence (a) that the ER is involved in the suppressive action of E2 on CYP1A, and (b) that E2 inhibitory action does not overcome xenobiotic induction of CYP1A. |
