Alteration of [C-14]-testosterone metabolism after chronic exposure of Daphnia magna to tributyltin
ARCHIVES OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINATION AND TOXICOLOGY, 34(1), 21–25.
MeSH headings : Animals; Carbon Radioisotopes; Daphnia / drug effects; Daphnia / growth & development; Daphnia / metabolism; Female; Testosterone / metabolism; Trialkyltin Compounds / pharmacology
TL;DR:
It is indicated that Alterations of steroid metabolism by xenobiotics can be used as a more sensitive indicator of sublethal exposure in daphnids than reproductive endpoints, and testosterone metabolism is enhanced at concentrations approaching those that are lethal to organisms.

Suppression of male-specific cytochrome P450 2c and its mRNA by 3,4,5,3′,4′,5′-hexachlorobiphenyl in rat liver is not causally related to changes in serum testosterone
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 271(2), 508–514.
MeSH headings : Animals; Aryl Hydrocarbon Hydroxylases; Chorionic Gonadotropin / pharmacology; Cytochrome P-450 Enzyme Inhibitors; Cytochrome P-450 Enzyme System / genetics; Estrenes / pharmacology; Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone / pharmacology; Hypothalamus / drug effects; Hypothalamus / physiology; Liver / enzymology; Male; Metribolone; Microsomes, Liver / enzymology; Orchiectomy; Pituitary Gland / drug effects; Pituitary Gland / physiology; Polychlorinated Biphenyls / pharmacology; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Rats; Rats, Inbred Strains; Steroid 16-alpha-Hydroxylase; Steroid Hydroxylases / metabolism; Testis / drug effects; Testis / physiology; Testosterone / blood
TL;DR:
The present study demonstrates that the consequential reduction in serum testosterone levels in HCB-treated rats is not causally related to the reduction in hepatic P450 2c levels, indicating that HCB must also act on some other regulatory mechanism involved in the expression of this protein.

Adult male-specific and neonatally programmed rat hepatic P-450 forms RLM2 and 2a are not dependent on pulsatile plasma growth hormone for expression
The Journal of Biological Chemistry, 263(23), 11396–11406.
TL;DR:
Rat hepatic cytochrome P-450 form RLM2 is a testosterone 15 alpha-hydroxylase reported to be male-specific on the basis of purification studies and its adult male- specific expression is imprinted (programmed) in response to neonatal testosterone exposure.

Feminization of rat hepatic P-450 expression by cisplatin. Evidence for perturbations in the hormonal regulation of steroid-metabolizing enzymes
The Journal of Biological Chemistry, 263(30), 15732–15739.
TL;DR:
The studies establish that the effects of cisplatin on hepatic P-450 enzyme expression result from its interruption of the hypothalamic-pituitary stimulation of testicular androgen production and that this, in turn, leads to a depletion of circulating androgens required for maintenance of normal P- 450 enzyme expression in adult male rats.

TL;DR:
It is suggested that in fact all of these compounds act in a similar manner internally to modulate enzyme activity, and that apparent differences in activity are a reflection of differences in bioconcentration of the different compounds.

TL;DR:
Comparison of lines of known genetic composition indicates that the degree of response to PMB is modulated by genes on chromosome II, and that differences exist with respect to the patterns of response of activities towards the substrates 1-chloro-2, 4-dinitrobenzene and ethacrynic acid.

Effects of copper on the competitive interactions of two species of cladocera
Environmental Pollution Series A, Ecological and Biological, 37(1), 13–25.
TL;DR:
This study, in conjunction with others, suggests that D. magna population growth is augmented by the presence of low levels of copper, and the inhibiting effect of copper on D. pulex population growth relieves D. Magna of the competitive inhibition experienced when these species are together.

TL;DR:
Preexposure of daphnids to CDNB or PCP increased the organisms' tolerance to the toxic effects of PCP, but not CDNB, and GST activity towards CDNB and EA was biochemically separated into different protein fractions suggesting the existence of two distinct isozymes.
