代谢
苯并[c]芘(BcC)是一种独特的多环芳烃环境污染物,在同一分子中同时具有湾区和峡湾区。我们之前已经证明,湾区和峡湾区的末端环都参与了BcC的体外代谢。在当前的研究中,我们准备了[14-(3)H]BcC并测试了假设,即BcC可以在雌性CD大鼠中激活为湾区和峡湾区的二醇环氧物。在6周大时,大鼠通过胃管给予单剂量的[14-(3)H]BcC(5毫克/只;比活性,6.7Ci/mmol)溶于0.5毫升的三辛酸甘油酯中。在前48小时内,20.3%的剂量通过粪便排出,2.8%通过尿液排出。1周后,累积分别排出了23.2%和3.5%。3-羟基苯并[c]芘、10-羟基苯并[c]芘和反式-7,8-二羟基-7,8-二氢苯并[c]芘是主要的粪便代谢物。在尿液中,检测到反式-1,2-二羟基-1,2-二氢苯并[c]芘、2-羟基苯并[c]芘、(+/-)-1,t-2,t-3,c-4-四羟基-1,2,3,4-四氢苯并[c]芘和(+/-)-9,t-10,t-11,c-12-四羟基-9,10,11,12-四氢苯并[c]芘,主要是作为葡萄糖醛酸和硫酸结合物。这两种四醇的鉴定清楚地表明,湾区和峡湾区的二醇环氧物作为BcC体内代谢的中间体形成。本研究的第二个目标是测试假设,即环氧基团的位置(峡湾区对湾区)决定了其致癌活性。因此,我们比较了湾区(+/-)-反式-1,2-二羟基-3,4-环氧-1,2,3,4-四氢苯并[c]芘和峡湾区(+/-)-反式-9,10-二羟基-11,12-环氧-9,10,11,12-四氢苯并[c]芘在大鼠乳腺中的致癌性。结果显示,峡湾区的二醇环氧物是一种强效的乳腺致癌物,而湾区的二醇环氧物在这种模型检测中缺乏活性。...
Benzo[c]chrysene (BcC), an environmental pollutant, is a unique polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon that possesses both a bay region and a fjord region in the same molecule. We previously demonstrated that both bay region and fjord region terminal rings are involved in the in vitro metabolism of BcC. In the present investigation, we prepared [14-(3)H]BcC and tested the hypothesis that BcC can be activated to both bay region and fjord region diol epoxides in female CD rats. At 6 weeks of age, rats were gavaged with a single dose of [14-(3)H]BcC (5 mg/rat; specific activity, 6.7 Ci/mmol) in 0.5 mL of trioctanoin. During the first 48 h, 20.3% of the dose was eliminated in the feces and 2.8% was eliminated in the urine. After 1 week, cumulatively, 23.2 and 3.5%, respectively, were eliminated. 3-Hydroxybenzo[c]chrysene, 10-hydroxybenzo[c]chrysene, and trans-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[c]chrysene were the major fecal metabolites. In urine, trans-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydrobenzo[c]chrysene, 2-hydroxybenzo[c]chrysene, (+/-)-1,t-2,t-3,c-4-tetrahydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[c]chrysene, and (+/-)-9,t-10,t-11,c-12-tetrahydroxy-9,10,11,12-tetrahydrobenzo[c]chrysene were detected, primarily as glucuronic acid and sulfate conjugates. The identification of the two tetraols clearly indicates that both bay region and fjord region diol epoxides are formed as intermediates in the metabolism of BcC in vivo. The second goal of this study was to test the hypothesis that the location of the epoxide moiety (fjord vs bay region) determines the carcinogenic activity. Thus, we compared the carcinogenicity of the bay region (+/-)-anti-1,2-dihydroxy-3,4-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[c]chrysene and the fjord region (+/-)-anti-9,10-dihydroxy-11,12-epoxy-9,10,11,12-tetrahydrobenzo[c]chrysene in the rat mammary gland. The results clearly showed that the fjord region diol epoxide is a potent mammary carcinogen, while the bay region diol epoxide lacks activity in this model assay. ...
