| abstractText | 1. Despite the frenetic pace of cytochrome P450 (CYP) research, important questions remain about the possible role of xenobiotic-metabolizing CYP in development and cellular homeostasis. 2. The recent experimental development of CYP null mouse lines has provided valuable new models for addressing these issues, as well as providing novel in vivo models to study the precise role of CYP in chemical-mediated toxicity. 3. The present review summarizes results from the three Cyp gene knockout mouse lines generated so far and looks at likely future directions of this research field. 4. Also discussed are null mouse lines with targeted mutations in genes encoding receptors having primary roles in Cyp gene regulation. |
