ABSTRACT
Objective@#The effect and mechanism of cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTe QDs) on cytochrome P450 (CYP450) in the liver of rat were investigated.@*Methods@#CdTe QDs (Ex 350 nm, Em 600 nm) were incubated with microsomes in final concentrations (0.5, 5, 50 μmol/L) using rat liver. And the content of CYP450 was determined by mixed incubation system as time (15, 30, 45 min) went on. Relationship also was detected between particle sizes (Em 620, 580, 540 nm; CdTe QDs-2, CdTe QDs-3, CdTe QDs-4) and expression of CYP450. Twenty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into exposed groups at various concentrations (0.25, 2.5 and 12.5 μmol/kg) of CdTe QDs via tail vein injection, the control group was injected with PBS.@*Results@#In vitro, CdTe QDs(0.5, 5, 50 μmol/L) could significantly increase the content of CYP450 in rat liver microsomes(P<0.05), which increased first and then decreased with the dose adding. Moreover, the trend along with the exposure time (15, 30, 45 min) was the same as that in dosages at certain concentration (P<0.01). For different particle sizes, the smaller CdTe QDs were, the higher content increased, the content of CYP450 in group CdTe QDs-4 was the highest (P<0.05). In vivo, experiment proved that CdTe QDs (0.25, 2.5 and 12.5 μmol/kg) could obviously induce the expression of CYP450 (P<0.01). The content level showed a tendency to rise and then fall.@*Conclusion@#CdTe QDs could promote the content of CYP450 in rat liver microsomes, it indicated that CdTe QDs had dose-effect relationship both in vivo and vitro. There was a certain relationship in time-effect. In addition, the smaller particle size was, the greater impact had.
