Disease relevance of CYP2J2

  • Recombinant human CYP2J2 was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified, and assayed for vitamin D 25-hydroxylation activity [1].
  • We hypothesized that functionally relevant polymorphisms in the CYP2J2 or CYP2C8 genes influence hypertension risk [2].
  • Recombinant CYP2J2 protein was prepared using the baculovirus expression system and purified to near electrophoretic homogeneity [3].
  • Activation of c-Fos expression by hypoxia promotes the formation of c-Jun/c-Fos heterodimers, which decrease the binding of c-Jun to the CYP2J2 upstream region, leading to gene down-regulation [4].
  • CYP2J2 Tr hearts have improved recovery of left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) compared with wild-type (WT) hearts after 20 minutes ischemia and 40 minutes reperfusion [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on CYP2J2

 

High impact information on CYP2J2

  • The cytochrome P450 isoform CYP2J2 was cloned and identified as a potential source of EETs in human endothelial cells [7].
  • Examination of signaling pathways on the effects of CYP2J2 and EETs revealed activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases and PI3 kinase-AKT systems and elevation of epithelial growth factor receptor phosphorylation level [8].
  • In this study, we found that very strong and selective CYP2J2 expression was detected in human carcinoma tissues in 101 of 130 patients (77%) as well as eight human carcinoma cell lines but undetectable in adjacent normal tissues and nontumoric human cell lines by Western, reverse transcription-PCR, and immunohistochemical staining [8].
  • Cytochrome P450 2J2 promotes the neoplastic phenotype of carcinoma cells and is up-regulated in human tumors [8].
  • These findings indicate that EETs possess fibrinolytic properties through the induction of t-PA and suggest that endothelial CYP2J2 may play an important role in regulating vascular hemostasis [9].

Associations of CYP2J2 with chemical compounds

  • CYP2J2 was selected as a candidate expressed in the intestine and closely related to arachidonic acid metabolism [13].
  • The CYP2C inhibitor sulfaphenazole depressed human liver microsomal epoxygenase activity by 50% at 50 microM, while alpha-naphthoflavone inhibited arachidonic acid epoxygenase activity by 27% at 2 microM and by 32% at 10 microM [17].
  • Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human and rat lung sections using the anti-human CYP2J2 IgG and avidin/biotin/peroxidase detection showed that CYP2J proteins were primarily expressed in ciliated epithelial cells lining the airway [18].
  • The ability of these variants to metabolize arachidonic acid and linoleic acid was compared with that of wild-type CYP2J2 [19].
  • HR resulted in cell injury, as indicated by significant increases in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release and trypan blue stained cells (p < 0.01) and was associated with a decrease in CYP2J2 protein expression [12].
