Constituents in food and fluids, tobacco chemicals and many drugs are candidates for oral absorption and oxidative metabolism. On this basis, the expression of cytochrome P450 isozymes (CYPs) and the conversion of CYP substrates were analysed in reference to buccal mucosa, A RT-PCR based analysis of human buccal tissue from 13 individuals demonstrated consistent expression of mRNA for the CYPs 1A1, 1A2, 2C, 2E1, 3A4/7 and 3A5, CYP 2D6 was expressed in six out of the 13 specimens, whereas all samples were negative for 2A6 and 2B6, Serum-free monolayer cultures of the Siman virus 40 large T-antigen-immortalized SVpgC2a and the carcinoma SqCC/Y1 buccal keratinocyte lines expressed the same CYPs as tissue except 3A4/7 and 3A5 (SVpgC2a), and 2C, 2D6 and 3A4/7 (SqCC/Y1), Dealkylation of ethoxyresorufin and methoxyresorufin in both normal and transformed cells indicated functional 1A1 and 1A2, respectively. SVpgC2a showed similar activity as normal keratinocytes for both substrates, whereas SqCC/Y1 showed about 2-fold lower 7-ethoxy-resorufin O-deethylation and 7-methoxyresorufin O-demethylation activities. SVpgC2a showed detectable and many-fold higher activity than the other cell types towards chlorzoxazone, a substrate for 2E1, Absent or minute catalytic activity of 2C9, 2D6 and 3A4 in the various tell types was indicated by lack of detectable diclofenac, dextromethorphan and testosterone metabolism (
