代谢
...对叔戊基甲基醚(TAME)在大鼠和一名志愿者体内的生物转化进行了研究,在吸入(12)C-或(13)C标记的TAME后。此外,还研究了叔戊醇[(13)C]在大鼠灌胃后的生物转化。...大鼠(两雄两雌)分别暴露于2000 ppm [(12)C]-或[(13)C]TAME 6小时,并收集48小时的尿液。以(13)C NMR信号的相对强度为依据,将自由态和葡萄糖苷化的2-甲基-2,3-丁二醇以及叔戊醇的葡萄糖苷酸定为主要尿液代谢物。根据(13)C NMR,还表明存在几种次要代谢物,它们被鉴定为叔戊醇、2-羟基-2-甲基丁酸和3-羟基-3-甲基丁酸。一名志愿者通过吸入2升气袋中的27,000 ppm [(13)C]TAME 初始浓度4分钟,并分析了尿液中TAME的代谢物通过(13)C NMR。在大鼠中鉴定的所有TAME代谢物也存在于人类尿液中。为了研究叔戊醇的生物转化,雄性大鼠(n = 3)通过灌胃250 mg/kg [(13)C]-叔戊醇溶解在玉米油中处理,并收集48小时的尿液。尿液样本的(13)C NMR显示了与[(13)C]TAME处理的大鼠尿液中相同的代谢物存在。我们的结果表明,TAME在大鼠和人类体内广泛代谢为叔戊醇,叔戊醇可能进一步氧化为二醇和羧酸。这些反应可能是由细胞色素P450依赖性氧化介导的。
... the biotransformation of tert-Amyl methyl ether (TAME) /was studied/ in rats and one human volunteer after inhalation of (12)C- or (13)C-labeled TAME. In addition, the biotransformation of [(13)C]-tert-amyl alcohol was studied in rats after gavage. ... Rats (two males and two females) were individually exposed to 2000 ppm [(12)C]- or [(13)C]TAME for 6 hr, and urine was collected for 48 hr. Free and glucuronidated 2-methyl-2,3-butanediol and a glucuronide of tert-amyl alcohol were identified ... as major urinary metabolites on the basis of the relative intensities of the (13)C NMR signals. The presence of several minor metabolites was also indicated by (13)C NMR; they were identified as tert-amyl alcohol, 2-hydroxy-2-methylbutyric acid, and 3-hydroxy-3-methylbutyric acid. One human volunteer was exposed to an initial concentration of 27,000 ppm [(13)C]TAME by inhalation for 4 min from a 2 L gas sampling bag, and metabolites of TAME excreted in urine were analyzed by (13)C NMR. All TAME metabolites identified in rats were also present in the human urine samples. To study tert-amyl alcohol biotransformation, male rats (n = 3) were treated with 250 mg/kg [(13)C]-tert-amyl alcohol dissolved in corn oil by gavage, and urine was collected for 48 hr. (13)C NMR of the urine samples showed the presence of metabolites identical to those in the urine of [(13)C]TAME-treated rats. Our results suggest that TAME is extensively metabolized by rats and humans to tert-amyl alcohol which may be further oxidized to diols and carboxylic acids. These reactions are likely mediated by cytochrome P450-dependent oxidations.
