The synthesis of essential 7 -hydroxylated bile
acids in the liver is mediated by two pathways that involve distinct
7 -hydroxylases. One pathway is initiated in the endoplasmic
reticulum by cholesterol 7 -hydroxylase, a well studied cytochrome
P450 enzyme. A second pathway is initiated by a less well defined
oxysterol 7 -hydroxylase. Here, we show that a mouse hepatic
oxysterol 7 -hydroxylase is encoded by Cyp7b1, a cytochrome P450
cDNA originally isolated from the hippocampus. Expression of a
Cyp7b1 cDNA in cultured cells produces an enzyme with the same
biochemical and pharmacological properties as those of the hepatic
oxysterol 7 -hydroxylase. Cyp7b1 mRNA and protein are induced in
the third week of life commensurate with an increase in hepatic
oxysterol 7 -hydroxylase activity. In the adult mouse, dietary
cholesterol or colestipol induce cholesterol 7 -hydroxylase mRNA
levels but do not affect oxysterol 7 -hydroxylase enzyme activity,
mRNA, or protein levels. Cholesterol 7 -hydroxylase mRNA is
reduced to undetectable levels in response to bile acids, whereas
expression of oxysterol 7 -hydroxylase is modestly decreased. The
liver thus maintains the capacity to synthesize 7 -hydroxylated bile
acids regardless of dietary composition, underscoring the central role
of 7 -hydroxylated bile acids in lipid metabolism.
