Abstract

1,3-Butadiene (BD) is a major industrial chemical and a rodent carcinogen, with mice being much more susceptible than rats. Oxidative metabolism of BD, leading to the DNA-reactive epoxides 1,2-epoxy-3-butene (BMO), 1,2-epoxy-3,4-butanediol (EBD) and 1,2:3,4-diepoxybutane (DEB), is greater in mice than rats. In the present study the DNA adduct profiles in liver and lungs of rats and mice were determined following exposure to BMO and to BD since these profiles may provide qualitative and quantitative information on the DNA-reactive metabolites in target tissues. Adducts detected in vivo were identified by comparison with the products formed from the reaction of the individual epoxides with 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG). In rats and mice exposed to [4-14C]-BMO (1-50 mg/kg, i.p.), DNA adduct profiles were similar in liver and lung with N7-(2-hydroxy-3-butenyl)guanine (G1) and N7-(1-(hydroxymethyl)-2-propenyl)guanine (G2) as major adducts and N7-2,3,4-trihydroxybutylguanine (G4) as minor adduct. In rats and mice exposed to 200 ppm [2,3-14C]-BD by nose-only inhalation for 6 h, G4 was the major adduct in liver, lung and testes while G1 and G2 were only minor adducts. Another N7-trihydroxybutylguanine adduct (G3), which could not unambiguousl...Continue Reading

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.
