Endoplasmi~ reticula-bound F-450 cytochromes play a central role in the oxidative metabolism of lipophili~~ ompo~ ds in eukaryotic celis. In mammalian systems, the microsomal P450s are particularly prominent in hepatic tissue, where they catalyze an NADP~-dependent monooxygenation of their structurally diverse lipophilic substrates to yield polar (eg hydroxylated) derivatives. Many endogenous steroids and fatty acids are hydroxylated by these cytochromes, as are a large number of foreign compounds, including drugs and environmental chemicals [l-4]. In the case of steroid hormones, hydroxylation can lead to deactivation and elimination, or alternatively, may result in production of derivatives that have altered hormonal properties. In the case of drugs and other chemicals, hydroxylation often results in deactivation, but in some instances leads to formation of reactive derivatives that are responsible for the chemotherapeutic, mutagenic or carcinogenic properties of the parent compound (Scheme I)[5, 6]. There are multiple pathways for P-450-catalyzed steroid and xenobiotic biotransformation in the liver, and these pathways are modulated and regulated by a large number of en~ ronmental and hormonal factors, The broad range of lipophilic compounds oxygenated by hepatic cytochrome P-450 in part reflects the presence of multiple forms (isozymes) of the P-450 hemeprotein.
