Developmental Expression of CYP2E1 in the Human Liver: Hypermethylation Control of Gene Expression During the Neonatal Period

Abstract

Cytochromes P‐450 are responsible for the biotransformation of drugs and other hydrophobic molecules by the liver. Several isoforms coexist which display an asynchronous onset during the perinatal period suggesting the involvement of multiple mechanisms of regulation. In this paper, we have shown that the CYP2E1 protein and its associated activity could not be detected in the fetal liver and rise during the first few hours following birth independently of the gestational age (between 25–40 weeks). During this period, the CYP2E1 RNA content remains fairly low: the stabilization of the low amount of existing CYP2E1 protein by endogenous ketone bodies could explain the early neonatal rise of the protein level. From 1 month to 1 year, the protein content gradually increases and is accompanied by the accumulation of CYP2E1 RNA, suggesting a transcriptional activation of the gene during the late neonatal period. We examined the methylation status of CpG residues in the 5′ flanking region, first exon and first intron of CYP2E1 gene cleaved with Hpa II/Msp I. Genomic DNA from fetal liver shows several hypermethylated spots in the first‐exon–first‐intron region, which progressively disappear in neonatal samples. We conclude that during the neonatal period, the accumulation of hepatic CYP2E1 RNA is correlated with the degree of methylation at the 5′ end of the CYP2E1 gene.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
