Presentation of benzo(a)pyrene to microsomal enzymes by asbestos fibers in the Salmonella/mammalian microsome mutagenicity test.
The potential effect of asbestos fibers on mutagenicity of benzo(a)pyrene was investigated by using the Ames test. Asbestos fibers without a coating of benzo(a)pyrene or benzo(a)pyrene when not dissolved in DMSO lacked any mutagenic effect in the Salmonella/mammalian microsome mutagenicity test. However, when benzo(a)pyrene was adsorbed onto asbestos, significant numbers of mutated bacteria wer...
متن کاملEffects of dietary fats and butylated hydroxytoluene on mutagen activation in rats.
The effects of hydrogenated fats and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) in the diets of rats on the hepatic activation of benzo(a)pyrene, 2-acetylaminofluorene (AAF), and 2-aminofluorene by liver homogenates (S-9 fraction) were evaluated. The Salmonella/microsomal mutagenicity assay (Strain TA 98) was utilized to determine the mutagenic potential of the activated compounds. The S-9 fraction was obt...
متن کاملInhibition of Microsome-Mediated Binding of Benzo (Α) Pyrene to "Dna By Cytosolic Reaction From Liver And Skin Rats in Cvitro
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of age on the capacity of liver and epiderm of adult and weanging rats in transformation of Benzo (α) Pyrene. Materials and Methods: In a metabolic activiation assay system, cytochorome P-50 (from microsomal fraction) catalyses the formation of reactive epoxide of BaP which can then interact with exogenous DNA The capacity of cytochrome...
متن کاملThe effects of antioxidants on the metabolism and mutagenicity of benzo[a]pyrene in vitro.
Antioxidants inhibit the rat liver microsomal mixed-function-oxidase-catalysed hydroxylation of benzo[a]pyrene. These antioxidants also decrease the formation of mutagenic products from benzo[a]pyrene as judged by the Ames bacterial-mutagenicity assay [B.N. Ames, J. McCann & E. Yamazaki (1975) Mutat. Res. 31, 347-364]. It is suggested that antioxidants exert their protective effect against canc...
متن کاملMutagenicity of 3-nitrodibenzofuran and 3-aminodibenzofuran.
Mutagenicities of 3-nitrodibenzofuran and 3-aminodibenzofuran were examined using Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. Strong mutagenicity was found in both compounds. The mutagenic potency of 3-nitrodibenzofuran was approximately 3.5-fold stronger in TA98 and twice stronger in TA100 than that of benzo[a]pyrene. Mutagenicity of 3-aminodibenzofuran was observed under metabolic activation and w...
