Wilhelmstra An inhibitory effect on both constitutive and inducible expression of
cytochrome P450 isoenzymes has been shown for different cytokines and
growth factors. We previously described an inhibition of
2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD)-induced
CYP1A1 mRNA and enzyme activity by transforming growth
factor-

1 (TGF-
1) in human lung cancer
A549 cells. In the present study, we report that not only TCDD-induced
expression of CYP1A1 but also basal mRNA expression of
CYP1A1, CYP1B1, and aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) was
down-regulated by TGF-
1 in cells not treated with TCDD. In contrast, mRNA expression of the AHR partner protein Arnt (aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator) was not influenced. Furthermore, TCDD-induced expression of CYP1B1 and NMO-1 was inhibited, and the IC50 values of 5-10 pM
TGF-
1 were in the same range as observed for inhibition
of CYP1A1 and AHR mRNA expression. Transfection studies with a plasmid
containing a luciferase reporter gene under control of two
dioxin-responsive elements indicate an effect on AHR protein
expression. Results of time-course studies revealed a parallel
inhibition of AHR and CYP1 mRNA expression, indicating that
TGF-
1 is a direct negative regulator of transcription of these genes. The treatment of cells with cycloheximide led to a
superinduction of TCDD-induced CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 mRNA expression and
abolished the inhibitory effect of TGF-
1 on basal as
well as TCDD-induced CYP1 and AHR mRNA expression. TGF-
1
seems not to influence the stability of AHR mRNA. The results suggest
that TGF-
1 induces rapid transcription and translation
of an as-yet-unknown negative regulatory factor or factors that may
directly regulate expression of AHR and genes of Ah gene
battery.
