Some effects of synthetic fluoro compounds on the metabolism of acetate and citrate.
The work described here was started to extend knowledge of the relative effects of fluoro compounds with special reference to fluoroacetate and fluorocitrate; it was hoped that it would have particular application to effects upon the liver and to the biochemical mechanism of convulsions induced by fluorocitrate. Bartlett & Barron (1947) showed originally that acetate accumulates after fluoroace...
متن کاملToxic Characteristics of Fluorocitrate, the Toxic Metabolite of Compound 1080
This paper reviews toxicological research involving fluorocitrate, the toxic metabolite of sodium monofluoroacetate (fluoroacetate), which is the active ingredient in the pesticide Compound 1080. Many toxicological studies have been done with fluoroacetate and the results obtained are actually due to the fluorocitrate because it has been definitely proved that, from a biochemical perspective,fl...
متن کاملUse of fluorocitrate and fluoroacetate in the study of brain metabolism.
Fluoroacetate and its toxic metabolite fluorocitrate cause inhibition of aconitase. In brain tissue, both substances are preferentially taken up by glial cells and leads to inhibition of the glial TCA cycle. It is important to realise, however, that the glia-specificity of these compounds depends both on the dosage and on the model used. The glia-inhibitory effect of fluorocitrate as obtained b...
متن کاملThe inhibition of plant aconitate hydratase (aconitase) by fluorocitrate.
Fluoroacetate is a potent poison of animals. It is metabolized to fluorocitrate, which is a powerful inhibitor of mammalian aconitate hydratase [aconitase; citrate (isocitrate) hydrolyase] (Peters, 1952). Fluoroacetate and fluoroacetamide, as systemic insecticides for plants, are taken up by the roots or absorbed by the leaves and are then translocated to other parts of the plant. The plants sh...
متن کاملActivation of fluoroacetate by neoplastic and normal pituitary tissue.
Peters and associates (9, 11) demonstrated that the accumulation of citrate in normal tissues with fluoroacetate poisoning involves the activation of fluoracetate and its condensation with oxalacetate to form fluorocitrate. This compound competitively inhibits aconitase and produces an accumulation of citrate. Potter and Busch (1~) showed that when rats bearing transplanted tumors were given to...
