Inhibitory effects of Armillaria mellea (Vahl) P. Kumm. on liver glutathione S-transferase activity
Abstract
Armillaria mellea (Vahl) P. Kumm. commonly-known as the honey fungus is an edible mushroom and its antioxidant, antitumor, neuroprotective, and insulin resistance reductive effects have been well-characterized. Glutathione S-transferases (GST) are the group of detoxification enzymes has a function to conjugate glutathione to the variety of electrophile, making them more water-soluble for excretion. Their inhibition or activation could have profound toxicological or clinical implications. This study is conducted to investigate the inhibitory effects of A. mellea on GST enzymes. Total GST activities were measured using glutathione and 1 chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene as substrates spectrophotometrically, and enzyme kinetic studies were conducted to determine Vmax and Km values. Additionally, aqueous and methanolic extracts of A. mellea were tested to see how they modulate the kinetic parameters. Vmax for liver GST enzyme was calculated as 443.90 ±11.52 U/mg, Km value for GSH, and CDNB were determined as 4.88± 0.53 mM and 10.43±1.07 mM, respectively. The decrease in Vmax and the increase in Km values with A. mellea extracts demonstrated a mixed-type inhibitory mechanism. Methanolic extract inhibits the GSH-dependent GST activity much more than the CDNB-dependent activity, but aqueous extract mainly affects CDNB-dependent GST activity. In conclusion, A. mellea could suppress the hepatic GST enzymes that might have toxicological consequences such as reduced cellular detoxification of electrophilic xenobiotics as well as alleviated drug resistance in the treatment of several diseases.
