The role of oxygen tension, insulin, and glucagon on the preservation and induction of cytochrome P450 isoenzyme activities and contents was investigated in rat hepatocytes cultured for 4 days on crude liver membrane fractions at 4 or 13% O2. At 13% O2, three out of six immunochemically analyzed P450 isoenzymes were significantly higher than in 4% O2. Exposure to phenobarbital (PB) from Days 1 to 4 dose dependently increased the protein content and decreased the albumin secretion in 13% O2 cultures only. The maximal induction of P450 isoenzymes CYP2B1/2B2 (20- to 25-fold) and CYP2C6 (6-fold) were found at 0.75 mM PB at both oxygen tensions. In contrast, the highest induction of CYP1A1/1A2 (3-fold), of CYP3A (2-fold), and EROD activity were found with 3 mM PB in 4% O2 cultures. CYP2B-dependent testosterone hydroxylation at positions 16 alpha/beta was elevated to a greater extent in 13% O2 cultures (96-fold at 0.75 mM PB) compared to 4% O2 cultures (42-fold). This activity was affected by the insulin concentrations and the insulin:glucagon ratio. With decreasing insulin concentration (100 to 1 nM) or with increasing insulin:glucagon ratios (1:100-1:0.1), the enzyme activity increased preferentially in 4% O2 cultures. The results of these investigations demonstrate that different tissue oxygen tension modulates the responsiveness of the cultured hepatocytes to the glucoregulatory hormones insulin and glucagon and this modulation results in a altered activity of cytochrome P450 isoforms.
