The present work tests the hypothesis that high fat/low carbohydrate diets elevate the level of liver microsomal cytochrome P450IIE1. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed liquid diets containing varied ratios of corn oil/carbohydrate for 4 d. Rats fed diets with higher fat/carbohydrate ratios produced higher serum acetone levels and higher hepatic microsomal P450IIE1 content and N-nitrosodimethylamine demethylase activity than those fed diets with lower fat/carbohydrate ratios. This dietary fat/carbohydrate effect on P450IIE1 also was observed with modified semipurified AIN-76A diets. In addition, both the quantity and the extent of unsaturation of dietary lipids affected P450IIE1 regulation. At moderate fat levels (5 and 20% diet), rats fed corn oil and menhaden oil diets produced higher P450IIE1 activity than those fed lard and olive oil diets. Rats fed a diet containing 20% corn oil or an amount of linoleic acid equivalent to the 20% corn oil diet showed twofold to threefold increases in the level of P450IIE1 over those fed a fat-free diet. Rats fed a 25% corn oil diet showed twofold higher enflurane metabolism in vivo than those fed a 0.5% corn oil diet. The present results suggest that the constitutive P450 enzyme level is regulated by dietary fat/carbohydrate ratios.
