Ontogeny of hepatic CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 expression in rat
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We report a comprehensive examination of rat hepatic CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 ontogeny. We compare the data to human data to determine the rat's capacity as a model to identify CYP-mediated mechanisms underlying age-dependent differences in susceptibility to toxicity. We evaluated CYP expression using real-time RT-PCR, immunoblot and immunohistochemistry, and specific probe activity in male rat livers (n = 4) at critical developmental life stages. CYP2E1 mRNA expression was low at birth, then increased rapidly to peak prior to weaning. CYP1A2 transcript levels remained very low postnatally and then increased dramatically to reach peak expression during weaning. Immunoreactive CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 was first detected at postnatal day 3 (PD3), and reached 50% of adult levels after weaning, and adult levels by puberty. CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 probe activity (pmol/(min mg)) was detected at PD3 and peaked during weaning and late neonatal period, respectively. CYP activity fell to adult values by puberty, a pattern that closely mirrored the temporal changes in mRNA but not protein. An increasing preferential localization of CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 immunoreactivity in perivenous hepatocytes was observed with maturation to adulthood. Although differences in CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 ontogeny between rats and humans exist, knowledge of these differences will aid interspecies extrapolation of developmental toxicokinetic data.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
