Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4), the most abundant human P450 in liver, participates in the metabolism of ∼50% of clinically used drugs. The pregnane X receptor (PXR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, is the major activator of CYP3A4 transcription. However, due to species differences in response to PXR ligands, it is problematic to use rodents to assess CYP3A4 regulation and function. The generation of double transgenic mice expressing human PXR and CYP3A4 (TgCYP3A4/hPXR) would provide a means to this problem. In the current study, a TgCYP3A4/hPXR mouse model was generated by bacterial artificial chromosome transgenesis in Pxr-null mice. In TgCYP3A4/hPXR mice, CYP3A4 was strongly induced by rifampicin, a human-specific PXR ligand, but not by pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile, a rodent-specific PXR ligand. Consistent with CYP3A expression, hepatic CYP3A activity increased ∼five-fold in TgCYP3A4/hPXR mice pretreated with rifampicin. Most anti-human immunodeficiency virus protease inhibitors are CYP3A substrates and their interactions with rifamycins are a source of major concern in patients co-infected with human immunodeficiency virus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. By using TgCYP3A4/hPXR mice, human PXR-CYP3A4 mediated rifampicin-protease inhibitor interactions were recapitulated, as the metabolic stability of amprenavir, nelfinavir, and saquinavir decreased 52%, 53%, and 99% respectively in the liver microsomes of TgCYP3A4/hPXR mice pretreated with rifampicin. In vivo, rifampicin pretreatment resulted in ∼80% decrease in the area under serum amprenavir concentration-time curve in TgCYP3A4/hPXR mice. These results suggest that the TgCYP3A4/hPXR mouse model could serve as a useful tool for studies on CYP3A4 transcription and function in vivo.
