Hyperhomocysteinemia leads to diverse clinical manifestations, notably liver disease. The pathogenicity of homocysteine is believed to be due to its ability to produce oxidative stress. Paraoxonase-1 (Pon1), a phase I xenobiotic-metabolizing enzyme (XME) synthesized by liver with anti-oxidative properties within the circulating system is down regulated in case of hyperhomocysteinemia. In a previous study, we have shown that red wine polyphenol extract (PE) supplementation induces a decrease in plasma homocysteine level and an increase in hepatic Pon1 gene expression concomitant with an increase in hepatic and plasma Pon1 activity in a murine model of hyperhomocysteinemia. In the present study, we analyzed the effect of PE supplementation on two phase II XME: NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (Nqo1) and arylamine-N-acetyltransferase (Nat) family. We found that hyperhomocysteinemia leads to a decrease of hepatic Nqo1 gene expression and activity with a reversal effect of PE supplementation. We also found that hyperhomocysteinemia-induced decrease of peroxynitrite level is associated with an increase of hepatic total Nat activity mainly due to the Nat2 isoform with a reversal effect of PE supplementation. Our results show a beneficial effect of PE supplementation on two phase II enzymes which are altered in case of hyperhomocysteinemia.
