چکیده

The photoreaction which takes place between benz [a] pyrene and DNA by irradiation at 365 nm leads to a covalent combination. To ascertain the reactive sites of DNA, a sample of the macro­ molecule has been precipitated after irradiation in the presence of benz [a] pyrene and hydrolized; among the products of hydrolysis four different fluorescent substances have been isolated, one of which was identical with the photoadduct benz[a]pyrene-thymine, already prepared by irradiation of the two substances at 365 nm. This photoadduct has been obtained in an amount corresponding to a molecular ratio 1 : 7000 in respect to the nucleotides (P atoms) present in the sample of DNA.

Changes in biochemical and physiological indices in animals produced by the combined effect of benz [a] pyrene and phenol.

Early energy changes in lungs, liver, and kidneys during the introduction of a benz a pyrene and phenol (as the possible carcinogen activator) were studied. It was observed that 10 days after a single instance introduction of 5 mg benz a pyrene per 0.9% NaCl (60 rats), oxidative phosphorylation in the lungs and livers is disturbed in the test rats, accompanied by a reduction of adenine nucleoti...

Production of oxidative DNA damage during the metabolic activation of benzo[a]pyrene in human mammary epithelial cells correlates with cell killing.

We have studied the generation of reactive oxygen species during the metabolism of a carcinogen, benzo[a]pyrene, by human mammary epithelial cells. We have quantitated the production of one type of oxidative DNA damage, thymine glycols, by using a monoclonal antibody specific to this base modification. Thymine glycols were produced in DNA in a dose-dependent manner after exposure of human mamma...

Detection and characterization of human serum antibodies to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon diol-epoxide DNA adducts.

The presence of serum antibodies to the diol-epoxide DNA adducts of representative polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), chrysene, benz[a]anthracene and benzo[a]pyrene, was determined by ELISA using serum samples obtained from normal healthy individuals. Antibodies that reacted against PAH adducted-DNA, but not against PAH-adducted protein, were found in the serum of approximately 40% of the ...
