Abstract:
:Eleven mutagenic heterocyclic amines, 3-amino-1,4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b]-indole (Trp-P-1), 3-amino-1-methyl-5H-pyrido[4,3]indole (Trp-P-2), 2-amino-6-methyl-dipyrido[1,2-a:3',2'-d]imidazole (Glu-P-1), 2-aminodipyrido[1,2-a:3',2'-d]imidazole (Glu-P-2), 2-amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (A alpha C), 2-amino-3-methyl-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (MeA alpha C), 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ), 2-amino-3,4-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (MeIQ), 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo [4,5-f]quinoline (MeIQX), 2-amino-3,4,8-trimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (4,8-diMeIQX), and 2-amino-3,7,8-trimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (7,8-diMeIQX), were studied for genotoxicity in the hepatocyte/DNA repair test employing hepatocytes of male rats, male and female mice, and male hamsters. In these four assay systems, all compounds elicited DNA repair in at least three systems, except Trp-P-2, which was uniformly inactive. However, there were several significant differences in the responses of different systems. Rat and hamster hepatocytes responded to nine of the ten genotoxic compounds with the exception of Glu-P-2. Male and female mouse hepatocytes responded to Glu-P-2, whereas female, but not male, mouse hepatocytes responded to MeIQX and 4,8-diMeIQX. These results illustrate species and sex differences in response to these heterocyclic amines and suggest that a number of these compounds are carcinogenic in hamsters, as they have been in rats and mice.
