Hammond DK, Strobel HW: Human colon tumor cell line LS174T drug metabolizing system. Mol Cell Biochem. 1990 Mar 27;93(2):95-105.
The effects of culture variables on the specific content and activity of various enzymes of the drug metabolizing system were assessed in colon tumor cell line LS174T. The NADH reduced cytochrome b5 (cyt b5) 4 spectrum of these cells was similar to rat liver cyt b5. When released from the membrane by trypsin and concentrated, the cyt b5 was found to cross react with rabbit antibody to rat liver cyt b5 and human liver cyt b5. The enzyme activities were found stable over limited cell passages with control values of 0.03 and 0.13 mumol/min/mg protein for NADPH and NADH cytochrome c (cyt c) reducing activity, 0.05 nmol cyt b5 and 0.013 nmol cytochrome P450 per milligram of microsomal protein. Phenobarbital/hydrocortisone showed a consistent, but not always significant increase in the NADPH and NADH cyt c reduction and benzanthracene an increase in the NADH cyt c reducing activity and cyt b5 content. Griseofulvin lowered the NADH cyt c reducing activity. Delta-aminolevulinic acid (0.5 mM) caused a significant decrease in the specific activity of all enzymes, as judged by a student's t test, with a p less than 0.001. |
