Sažetak
Glucocorticoids are metabolized by the CYP3A isoform of cytochrome P450 and by 11-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD-1). Experimental data suggest that post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with an increase in hepatic 11β-HSD-1 activity and a concomitant decrease in hepatic CYP3A activity. Trans-resveratrol, a natural polyphenol, has been extensively studied for its antipsychiatric properties. Recently, protective effects of trans-resveratrol were found in relation to PTSD. Treatment of PTSD rats with trans-resveratrol allowed the rats to be divided into two phenotypes. The first phenotype is treatment-sensitive rats (TSR), and the second phenotype is treatment-resistant rats (TRRs). In TSR rats, trans-resveratrol ameliorated anxiety-like behavior and reversed plasma corticosterone concentration abnormalities. In contrast, in TRR rats, trans-resveratrol aggravated anxiety-like behavior and decreased plasma corticosterone concentration. In TSR rats, hepatic 11β-HSD-1 activity was suppressed, with a concomitant increase in CYP3A activity. In TRR rats, the activities of both enzymes were suppressed. Thus, the resistance of PTSD rats to trans-resveratrol treatment is associated with abnormalities in hepatic metabolism of glucocorticoids. The free energy of binding of resveratrol, cortisol, and corticosterone to the human CYP3A protein was determined using the molecular mechanics Poisson–Boltzmann surface area approach, indicating that resveratrol could affect CYP3A activity.
