Induction of rat hepatic N-nitrosodimethylamine demethylase by acetone is due to protein stabilization.
The N-nitrosodimethylamine demethylase (P450I-IE1) is induced severalfold in liver by giving rats ethanol, acetone, pyrazole, and other related small molecular weight compounds. This induction is not the result of an increase in IIE1 mRNA, but could be due to either an increase in translation rate or a decrease in protein degradation. To determine the mechanism of induction, we measured IIE1 sy...
متن کاملRegulation of A^-Nitrosodimethylamine Demethylase in Rat Liver and Kidney1
In previous work, the low k„, form of /V-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) demethylase has been demonstrated to be due to a specific form of cytochrome P-450 (designated as P-450ac) and to be the enzyme required for the metabolic activation of NDMA. The present work deals with the regulation of P-450ac in rat liver during development as well as the mechanism of induction of P-450ac in rat liver and...
متن کاملSudden death due to the Acetone toxicity
Propanone is a volatile liquid that can be absorbed by ingestion, inhalation, dermal and is distributed throughout the body. In this study, a fatal case involving acetone poisoning, who was worked in the Red Crescent Medical Center is presented. The deceased was found four hours after death. He was a 25-year-old male nurse and not married. There are the history of smoking since four years ago, ...
متن کاملMetabolic denitrosation of N-nitrosodimethylamine in vivo in the rat.
Enzymatic denitrosation is a potentially inactivating metabolic route that has been shown to convert carcinogenic N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) to methylamine (MA) in vitro. To investigate its quantitative course in vivo, groups of 8-week-old male Fischer rats have been given small (8-15 mumol/kg) p.o. or i.v. bolus doses of 14C-labeled NDMA and the subsequent formation of radioactive MA has be...
متن کاملRegulation of renal N-nitrosodimethylamine demethylase activity by androgens, progestin, glucocorticoid, and estrogen in BALB/c mice.
Studies from this laboratory have shown that renal N-nitrosodimethylamine demethylase (NDMA demethylase), an enzyme responsible for the metabolism of NDMA, shows age- and sex-related differences and is modulated by testosterone. These results have been positively correlated with NDMA-induced mutagenicity and carcinogenicity studies; however, relatively large doses of testosterone (100 mg/kg or ...
