heal.abstract1. The inducibility of hepatic cytosolic aldehyde dehydrogenase activity was studied in rat, mouse, guinea pig, chicken, frog, salamander and rainbow trout, by using two different types of inducers of drug metabolism. 2. Phenobarbital (a type I inducer of drug metabolizing enzymes) increased total liver cytosolic aldehyde dehydrogenase activity (up to 20-fold) in a genetically defined substrain of responsive rats (RR) and only slightly, if at all, in a non-responsive substrain (rr). On the contrary, both types of rats showed a highly induced aldehyde dehydrogenase activity after treatment with methylcholanthrene (a type II inducer). Phenobarbital is affecting mainly an isozyme of aldehyde dehydrogenase which is best measured with propionaldehyde as the substrate and NAD as the coenzyme (P/NAD). 3. Administration of phenobarbital to mice produced only a slight increase (2-fold) in the P/NAD aldehyde dehydrogenase activity. 4. Methylcholanthrene treatment caused a 2-fold increase of the hepatic P/NAD aldehyde dehydrogenase activity in the chicken. 5. In the guinea pig, phenobarbital produced an approximate 3-fold increase of the P/NAD activity. Methylcholanthrene had a similar effect, although to a lesser extent. 6. In the salamander, a 4-fold increase was detected in the enzyme activity measured with benzaldehyde as the substrate and NADP as the coenzyme (B/NADP), after treatment with either phenobarbital or methylcholanthrene. 7. The hepatic aldehyde dehydrogenase activities were found unchanged in the rainbow trout, after treatment with phenobarbital or 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin. 8. The rat model remains the only one examined that shares with human hepatocytes strong inducibility of the B/NADP aldehyde dehydrogenase isozyme upon treatment with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.en
