Microsomal aldehyde oxygenase (MALDO) activity for 9-anthraldehyde (9-AA) was significantly higher in the male than in the female adult rat liver. 9-AA MALDO activity was also significantly enhanced by pretreatment with dexamethasone and phenobarbital, whereas it was not significantly changed by 3-methylcholanthrene or acetone. Several cytochrome P450 isozymes purified from rat hepatic microsomes were able to catalyze the oxidation of 9-AA to 9-anthracene carboxylic acid (9-ACA) in the presence of NADPH, NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase and dilauroylphosphatidylcholine. Under the ordinary conditions of the reconstituted system, the catalytic activities (nmol/min/nmol P450) of cytochrome P450s, 2A1, 2B2, 2C6, 2C11 and 3A2 were 1.53 (1.37 in the presence of cytochrome b5), 1.20 (2.06), 4.87 (7.75), 18.0 (21.6) and 0.90 (1.17), respectively. Cytochrome P450 2C11 (CYP 2C11) showed the highest catalytic activity of the cytochromes examined. In the reconstituted system using the lipids extracted from microsomes, CYP 3A2 more effectively catalyzed the oxidation of 9-AA to 9-ACA, and its catalytic activity (nmol/min/nmol P450) was 3.33 or 6.61 in the absence or presence of cytochrome b5, respectively. The antibody against CYP 2C11 inhibited by 90% the hepatic microsomal oxidation of 9-AA MALDO activity in adult male rats, but the activity was not inhibited by antibody against CYP 3A2. These results show that the individual forms of cytochrome P450 have a catalytic activity for the oxidation of 9-AA to 9-ACA, and that CYP 2C11 is the major constitutive catalyst of 9-AA MALDO activity in untreated adult male rat liver.

Microsomes were isolated from livers of male Fischer 344 rats at 3 to 5, 14 to 15 and 24 to 25 months of age for the determination of monooxygenase components and drug metabolism activities. Microsomal cytochrome P-450, cytochrome b5, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity and phospholipid were decreased in middle-aged and old rats compared with young-adult rats, but the enzymatic reduction of microsomal cytochrome P-450 was unchanged. Drug metabolism activities both decreased and increased as a consequence of aging, depending upon the substrate used. Differences were observed between young-adult and old rats in the CO maximum of reduced microsomal cytochrome P-450, in microsomal fatty acid composition and in the amounts of microsomal polypeptides having molecular weights of 52,500 and 53,000. The substrate selectivity of the age-related alterations in hepatic microsomal drug metabolism may be due to qualitative changes in the cytochrome P-450 and phospholipid components of the monooxygenase system.
