Cholestasis produced by bile duct ligation has been associated with decreased concentrations of hepatic microsomal cytochrome P450 and decreased hepatic microsomal oxidative drug metabolism. Bile duct ligation producing cholestasis results in a marked increase in hepatic microsomal heme oxygenase activity, with corresponding decreases in hepatic microsomal cytochrome P450 concentration, reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-cytochrome c reductase activity, and hepatic delta-aminolevulinic acid synthetase activity. As sham-operated rats also demonstrate a less prolonged decrease in cytochrome P450 concentration and reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-cytochrome c reductase activity, the metabolic effects of surgery and anesthesia must also be involved in these alterations in microsomal oxidative drug metabolism. The relative rate of hepatic cytochrome P450 synthesis and of degradation are both decreased after bile duct ligation. These data suggest that decreased hepatic microsomal cytochrome P450 concentrations in cholestasis are partly the result of decreased cytochrome P450 synthesis. Increased levels of heme oxygenase activity are not related to increased cytochrome P450 turnover, but may instead reflect enlargement and increased catabolism of a free heme pool resulting from decreased hemoprotein (cytochrome P450) synthesis.
