Abstract
The effect of the antifungal imidazole compound, clotrimazole, on the metabolism of benzo[a]pyrene (BP) was studied in cultured keratinocytes prepared from BALB/c mouse epidermis. Varying concentrations of clotrimazole added to the cultured keratinocytes resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of the activities of the microsomal cytochrome P-450-dependent monooxygenases aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase and 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase. The major organic solvent-soluble metabolites of BP identified in the cultured cells were trans-7,8-dihydro-7,8-dihydroxybenzo[a]pyrene (BP-7,8-diol), 9-hydroxybenzo[a]pyrene (9-OH-BP), and 3-hydroxybenzo[a]pyrene (3-OH-BP), although small amounts of trans-4,5-dihydro-4,5-dihydroxybenzo[a]pyrene, BP-quinones, and trans-9,10-dihydroxybenzo[a]pyrene were also present. The major organic solvent-extractable metabolites of BP found in the extracellular culture medium were primarily the diols with smaller quantities of phenols and quinones. The major water-soluble metabolites of BP present both intracellularly and extracellularly were glucuronide conjugates of 3-OH-BP, 9-OH-BP, and benzo[a]pyrene-3,6-dione and to a lesser extent sulfate conjugates (primarily of the BP-7,8-diol). Clotrimazole inhibited the...Continue Reading
