DNA fragmentation by 2-nitropropane in rat tissues, and effects of the modulation of biotransformation processes.

Abstract:

:The occurrence and persistence of DNA fragmentation, as detected by the alkaline elution technique, have been studied in rats treated with single oral doses of the hepatocarcinogen 2-nitropropane (2-NP). A progressive increase of liver DNA fragmentation was observed at doses ranging from 0.5 to 8 mmol/kg; single strand breaks reached the maximum frequency 6 h after administration, and were partially reduced after 36 h. In contrast, DNA fragmentation was absent in lung, kidney, bone marrow and brain of rats given 8 mmol/kg. The role of cytochrome P-450 in the activation of 2-NP is indicated by the increase of liver DNA damage in rats pretreated with phenobarbital or beta-naphtoflavone, and by its reduction produced by methoxsalen. Both administration of GSH and GSH depletion did not result in clearcut modifications of the genotoxic effect of 2-NP for the liver.
