The peroxidatic function of liver microsomal cytochrome P-450: Comparison of hydrogen peroxide and NADPH-catalysed iV-demethylation reactions

Abstract: Fifteen different secondary and tertiary methyl amines have been examined as substrates for the cytochromes P-450 of rat-liver microsomes to determine the similarities or differences between the NADPH and oxygen-dependent N-demethylation reaction and the reaction occurring in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. No apparent correlation of the rates of formaldehyde formation using the two different conditions of oxidation was observed. The types of cytochromes P-450 were altered by using rat-liver microsomes from… Show more

“…Interestingly, the rates of O-dealkylation of 7EFC and 7PRF by the CYP2B4 reconstituted systems dropped to very low levels at a 5000:1 PC/ CYP2B4 ratio, whereas that of benzphetamine only decreased gradually after the ratio exceeded 700:1. One possible explanation for the difference observed with BZP may be the evidence that a high proportion of the total CYP2B4-mediated metabolism of this substrate occurs by the peroxidative pathway which circumvents the need for the reductase and P450 to physically interact (Estabrook et al, 1984).…”

“…A knowledge of the mechanism of reaction of hydrogen peroxide with iron(III) porphyrins is germane to our understanding of the mechanisms of the peroxidase (1) and catalase (2) enzymes and the peroxide shunt reaction of the cytochrome P-450 enzymes (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10). Though the reaction of hydrogen peroxide with various iron(III) porphyrins in H20 has received considerable attention, we find that much of the past work (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23) is both incomplete and obscured by the occurrence of metalloporphyrin destruction, aggregation in water, and dimerization in basic media.…”

“…There is a specific response of peroxide-promoted N-oxygenation reactions to the various inducers of the P-450 system: whereas animal pretreatment with phenobarbital causes stimulation of N-oxide formation from stobadine (50) and N,N-dimethylaniline (60), application of 3-methylcholanthrene strongly attenuates the capacity for arylamine N-oxygenation of hepatic microsomal samples (60). The diverse P-450 isozymes thus are assumed to differ widely with respect to their "peroxygenase" potency (46).…”

“…Apart from this mixed-function type of N-oxygenation, peroxidatic mechanisms (46) appear to play a preponderant role in N-oxidative biotransformation by P-450 enzymes of certain aliphatic and alicyclic tertiary amines. Thus, NADPH-driven microsomal N-oxide formation from pargyline, a monoamine oxidase inhibitor, does not exhibit significant reactivity toward prototypic effectors of P-450, suggesting that this pathway is mainly catalyzed by the FMO (47).…”
