(±)-7β,8α-Dihydroxy-9β,10β-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (diol epoxide-1) and (±)-7β,8α-dihydroxy-9α,10α-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (diol epoxide-2) are highly mutagenic diol epoxide diastereomers that are formed during metabolism of the carcinogen (±)-trans-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene. Remarkable stereoselectivity has been observed on metabolism of the optically pure (+)- and (?)-enantiomers of the dihydrodiol which are obtained by separation of the diastereomeric diesters with (?)-α-methoxy-α-trifluoromethylphenylacetic acid. The high stereoselectivity in the formation of diol epoxide-1 relative to diol epoxide-2 was observed with liver microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats and with a purified cytochrome P-448-containing monoxygenase system where the (?)-enantiomer produced a diol epoxide-2 to diol epoxide-1 ratio of 6 : 1 and the (+)-enantiomer produced a ratio of 1 : 22. Microsomes from control and phenobarbital-treated rats were less stereospecific in the metabolism of enantiomers of BP 7,8-dihydrodiol. The ratio of diol epoxide-2 to diol epoxide-1 formed from the (?)- and (+)-enantiomers with microsomes from control rats was 2 : 1 and 1 : 6, respectively. Both enantiomers of BP 7,8-dihydrodiol were also metabolized to a phenolic derivative, tentatively identified as 6,7,8-trihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene, which accounted for ~30% of the total metabolites formed by microsomes from control and phenobarbital-pretreated rats whereas this metabolite represents ~5% of the total metabolites with microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats. With benzo[a]pyrene as substrate, liver microsomes produced the 4,5-, 7,8- and 9,10-dihydrodiol with high optical purity (>85%), and diol epoxides were also formed. Most of the optical activity in the BP 7,8-dihydrodiol was due to metabolism by the monoxygenase system rather than by epoxide hydrase, since hydration of (±)-benzo[a]pyrene 7,8-oxide by liver microsomes produced dihydrodiol which was only 8% optically pure. Thus, the stereospecificity of both the monoxygenase system and, to a lesser extent, epoxide hydrase plays important roles in the metabolic activation of benzo[a]pyrene to carcinogens and mutagens. 相似文献

Human T-lymphocytes have been treated with benzo[a]pyrene diolepoxide (BPDE) in vitro and T-cell clones mutated in the hprt gene have been isolated. The mutant frequencies in BPDE-treated T-cell cultures were on average 24-fold higher than those of untreated cultures. Thus, BPDE is a potent inducer of gene mutation in this system. In order to examine which types of mutations are induced by BPDE in human cells, 41 spontaneous and 44 BPDE-induced mutant clones have been characterized using the Southern blot technique. In addition, rearrangements of the T-cell-receptor beta and gamma loci have been used to determine the proportion of isolated clones that are unique, and thus likely to represent independent mutational events. Out of 23 independent spontaneous mutants 4 had large hprt alterations that could be detected on Southern blots. Two of these alterations, deletions of exons 2-6, have been confirmed using PCR of hprt cDNA and direct sequencing of the PCR product. All 33 independent BPDE-induced mutants had normal hprt restriction patterns which indicates that BPDE is mainly a point mutagen in this system. 相似文献

The formation of water-soluble metabolites of tritium-labeled benzo[a]pyrene (BP) by cultured hamster embryo cells was studied. The ratio of the radioactivity in the aqueous phase to that in the organic phase increased with the incubation period. After incubation for 48 h with 3.75 nmol/ml of [3H] BP in the medium more than 90% of the 3H-radioactivity was found in the aqueous phase, whereas with 10-fold more BP about half the radioactivity remained in the organic phase. The main metabolites extracted from the medium at 37.5 nmol/ml BP with ethyl acetate by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) were 9,10-diol and 7,8-diol; but after treatment of the medium with beta-glucuronidase the main oxygenated metabolites were phenols, the amount of 9-OH BP being more than that of 3-OH BP. beta-Glucuronidase also released 9,10-diol and 7,8-diol, but most of these diols were in the free form in the medium. The medium from cells treated with 3.75 nmol/ml BP has a quantitatively different profile, and most of the radioactivity obtained by extraction with organic solvent and digestion with beta-glucuronidase was eluted in the regions of phenols. These results show that in hamster embryo cells BP is mainly metabolised to conjugates of phenols with glucuronic acid. 相似文献

Ellagic acid, a plant phenol present in various foods consumed by humans, has been reported to have both anti-mutagenic and anti-carcinogenic potential. To evaluate the potential anti-carcinogenic property of ellagic acid, we tested its effects on the toxicity of ben-zo[a]pyrene and benzo[a]pyrene, 7,8-dihydrodiol and binding of benzo[a]yrene to DNA in cultured human bronchial epithelial cells. The toxicity of ellagic acid itself for human bronchial epithelial cells was also determined. Using a colony-forming efficiency assay, it was found that a nontoxic concentration of ellagic acid (5 g/ml) enhanced the toxicity of benzo[a]pyrene.7,8-dihydrodiol in human bronchial epithelial cells. In contrast, ellagic acid at concentrations of l.5 and 3.0 g/ml inhibited binding of benzo[a]pyrenemetabolites to DNA in these cells. An explanation for the potentiating effect of ellagic acid on the toxicity of benzo[a]pyrene, 7,8-dihydrodiol will require further investigation into the possible mechanisms of interaction between these two compounds.Abbreviations B[a]P

14C-labeled benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) was used as a model-compound for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in order to assess the effect of photolytic pretreatment on the subsequent fate of BaP in sewage sludge and soil test systems. Photolysis was performed in methanolic solution with or without 0.1 M H2O2, under either UV light (300 nm) or natural sunlight. The presence of H2O2 greatly enhanced the rate of photolysis both with UV and with natural sunlight. Intact BaP resisted biodegradation in both test systems. Photolysis transformed BaP to polar materials that were subject to increased mineralization and binding in both biological test systems. As shown by the Ames assay, photolysis decreased the mutagenicity of BaP to test strains TA98 and TA104 only moderately. The photolysate had an increased acute toxicity and lost its need for activation by S-9 enzymes. However, during subsequent incubation in soil or sewage sludge, mutagenicity decreased rapidly by one to two orders of magnitude and acute toxicity disappeared due to the mineralization and binding of photoproducts to humic materials. Photolysis of BaP and similar PAH compounds represents a useful treatment option that could be applied to certain PAH-containing petroleum refinery sludge and to coal tar residues in order to facilitate their detoxification and environmentally safe disposal. 相似文献

Strand-break formation in DNA modified by benzo[alpha]pyrene diolepoxide. Quantitative cleavage by Escherichia coli uvrABC endonuclease 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Covalently closed circular plasmid DNA was modified by benzo[alpha]pyrene diolepoxide and incubated with partially purified fractions of the Escherichia coli uvr+ gene products. Strand breaks were introduced into the modified DNA by the uvrABC endonuclease; on average, one break was formed for each bound benzo[alpha]pyrene residue in the DNA. These results are direct evidence that benzo[alpha]pyrene adducts in DNA are acted upon by the same repair enzyme as those that handle UV-induced lesions in DNA. 相似文献

The reactive industrial chemicals acrylamide (AA) and N-methylolacrylamide (MAA) are neurotoxic and carcinogenic in animals, MAA showing a lower potency than AA. The causative agent in AA-induced carcinogenesis is assumed to be the epoxy metabolite, glycidamide (GA), which in contrast to AA gives rise to stable adducts to DNA. The causative agent in MAA induced carcinogenesis is so far not studied. The two AAs were studied in mice and rats using analysis of hemoglobin (Hb) adducts as a measure of in vivo doses and the in vivo micronucleus (MN) assay as an end-point for chromosome damage. Male CBA mice were treated by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of three different doses and male Sprague-Dawley rats with one dose of each AA. Identical adducts were monitored from the two AAs [N-(2-carbamoylethyl)valine] and the respective epoxide metabolites [N-(2-carbamoyl-2-hydroxyethyl)valine]. Per unit of administered amount, AA gives rise to higher (three to six times) Hb adduct levels than MAA in mice and rats. Mice exhibit, compared with rats, higher in vivo doses of the epoxy metabolites, indicating that AAs were more efficiently metabolized in the mice. In mouse the two AAs induced dose-dependent increases in both Hb adduct level and MN frequency in peripheral erythrocytes. Per unit of administered dose MAA showed only half the potency for inducing micronuclei compared with AA, although the MN frequency per unit of in vivo dose of measured epoxy metabolite was three times higher for MAA than for AA. No increase in MN frequency was observed in rat bone marrow erythrocytes, after treatment with either AA. This is compatible with a lower sensitivity of the rat than of the mouse to the carcinogenic action of these compounds. 相似文献

The metabolism of benzo[a]pyrene (BP) by hamster embryo cells was studied. The production of water-soluble metabolites, shown to be conjugates with glucuronic acid, depended on BP concentration. With increased BP concentration the amount of glucuronic acid conjugates increased, but the proportion of conjugates in BP or its metabolites present in the medium decreased. The metabolites extracted with ethylacetate were trans-7,8-dihydrodiol-BP (7,8-dihydrodiol) and trans-9,10-dihydrodiol-BP (9,10-dihydrodiol), but large peaks of phenolic metabolites were found by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) after digesting the medium with beta-glucuronidase. Therefore, BP is metabolized to oxygenated forms, and of these, most of the phenolic metabolites and parts of the dihydrodiols are conjugated with glucuronic acid. The proportions of dihydrodiols to phenols, estimated by HPLC after beta-glucuronidase digestion, decreased when the BP concentration was decreased. The results suggest that dihydrodiols are less readily glucuronidated than phenols and so may be metabolized further to metabolites other than glucuronic acid conjugates. 相似文献

The experimental data on the effects of a widespread carcinogen, benzo[a]pyrene (BP), on individual reactions of rats were treated using mathematical-statistical methods. The individual reactions were analyzed in dependence of doses and modes of administration (single or chronic). The analysis revealed a statistically significant correlation between life span and urinary content of (+/-)-trans-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene (7,8-BP) in rats treated with BP. The calculated regression equations revealed that the individual sensitivity to carcinogen in case of the BP single administration to rats is mainly determined by efficiency of excretion of the BP active forms out of the organism, whereas after chronic BP administration it is determined by mechanisms of enzymatic deactivation of BP. 相似文献

The mutagenicity of benzo[a]pyrene (BP) and a number of methylated derivatives towards Salmonella typhimurium has been tested. The most mutagenic derivative tested was 6-methylbenzo[a]pyrene which produced about twice the number of revertants as did BP, 11-Methylbenzo[a]pyrene was slightly more mutagenic than BP. All the other compounds tested (7-, 8-, 9- and 10-methylbenzo[a]pyrene and 7,8- and 7,10-dimethylbenzo[a]pyrene) were significantly less active than benzo[a]pyrene. With the exception of 6-methylbenzo[a]pyrene, these results closely parallel the known carcinogenicity of the methylated benzo[a]pyrenes, and support the view that metabolic activation of BP may involve the 7-10 positions which are blocked in the methylated compounds. 相似文献

At least four different free radicals can be formed from benzo[a]pyrene under different reaction conditions, namely the 6-oxybenzo[a]pyrene radical, the benzo[a]pyrene anion and cation radicals and a radical from heated benzo[a]pyrene. The formation and esr spectra of these radicals have been studied with the aim of clarifying the nature of the radical species involved under different reaction conditions. Additionally the reactivity of the 6-oxybenzo[a]pyrene and the benzo[a]pyrene cation radicals towards several phenolic antioxidants have also been investigated. 相似文献

Alkaline sucrose gradient sedimentation analysis was used to detect DNA lesions induced by benzo[a]pyrene B(a)P in Chinese hamster ovary cells. The number of lesions detected immediately following treatment with 10(-4) M B(a)P was related directly to the duration of treatment. When treated cells were incubated in a B(a)P-free medium, the majority of lesions disappeared rapidly and could no longer be detected 15 min following treatment. These data indicate that a population of B(a)P-induced DNA lesions may be removed by a rapid DNA-repair process. The transient nature of such lesions should be considered when assays for DNA damage or repair are designed and interpreted. 相似文献

The relationship between the density of adducts on the DNA of monkey kidney cells caused by benzo[a] pyrene diol epoxide (BaP-DE) and the amount of cytotoxicity and DNA synthesis inhibition was examined. Above 1.7 microM, BaP-DE was maximally cytotoxic; whereas, at concentrations below 0.8 microM, colony-forming efficiency was the same as controls even though DNA adducts and DNA synthesis inhibition could be seen at these lower concentrations. Adduct analysis showed a linear relationship between DNA binding and applied BaP-DE concentration with no evidence of parental strand nicking over the concentrations at which adducts were measured. Analysis of nascent DNA synthesis following BaP-DE treatment showed that premature arrest of strand elongation and inhibition of DNA segment maturation were both factors contributing to the decreased level of DNA synthesis caused by BaP-DE. Above 1.7 mM, BaP-DE arrested strand elongation at subreplicon sizes which correlated with the average interadduct distances estimated from DNA binding studies. Lower, nontoxic concentrations permitted the completion of replicons, but inhibited the maturation of these nascent segments. Flow cytometric analysis of the cell cycle distributions of cells after BaP-DE treatment at concentrations which inhibited proper maturation of newly synthesized DNA showed that cells did progress through the G2 phase of the cell cycle and did divide with fragmented newly synthesized DNA. The results of these studies suggest that growth-dependent toxicity is not simply proportional to template adduct level but rather that major toxicity results when adduct levels exceed one/strand/replicon due to the inability of the replication apparatus to complete genome segments containing multiple adducts with replicons. 相似文献

Human intestinal Caco-2 cells display active transport of benzo[a]pyrene metabolites 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Epithelial cells of the gastrointestinal tract are challenged by exposure to many potentially toxic agents including the well-known food contaminant benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P). They are equipped with a variety of Phase 1- and Phase 2-enzymes that are able to metabolize B[a]P. Furthermore, transmembranous ABC-transport proteins are expressed at the apical pole of these cells. The aim of this study was to investigate whether [14C]B[a]P or products of the metabolism are transported by intestinal cells back into the gut lumen. The intestinal Caco-2 cell line was used as a metabolism and transport model. Experiments with Caco-2 monolayers in the Transwell-system revealed that radiolabeled substance is transported towards the apical (luminal) region. This transport was characterized as active and increased after induction of cytochromes P450 1A1 and 1B1 by beta-naphthoflavone. On the other hand, transport was decreased with the concomitant inhibition of Phase 1-metabolism. TLC-analysis revealed that the primary metabolites of B[a]P found in the supernatant were very polar; other metabolites of less polarity could only be detected in trace amounts. These results indicate that B[a]P is metabolized by Caco-2 cells to highly polar metabolites resulting from biphasic metabolism and that these polar metabolites are subject to an apically directed transport. Chemical inhibition studies showed that P-glycoprotein and MRP1 or 2 were not involved in this polarized B[a]P-metabolite secretion. 相似文献

Basal levels of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase, epoxide hydrolase and glutathione S-transferase enzyme activities, cytochrome P-450 content and inducibility of enzymes with phenobarbital were found to be similar in the microsomes of D. simulans mutant strain 364yv, which is sensitive to the toxic and mutagenic effects of benzo[a]pyrene (BP), and of the wild resistant Turku strain. In contrast, increases in the rate of BP turnover per molecule of cytochrome P-450, intensity of the hemoprotein band with apparent molecular weight 56,000 and the yield of BP 7,8-dihydrodiol and 9,10-dihydrodiol occurred only in microsomes of BP-pretreated 364yv flies but not of Turku ones. It is likely that BP induces an aberrant form of cytochrome P-450 in 364yv flies with a rare mutation in one of the P-450 regulating genes. 相似文献
