Evidence that 4‐aminobiphenyl, benzidine, and benzidine congeners produce genotoxicity through reactive oxygen species

Abstract: 4-Aminobyphenyl (4-Ab), benzidine (Bz), and Bz congeners were evaluated for their ability to induce genotoxicity through an oxidative mechanism. The mutagenicity of these compounds was tested in the presence and absence of Aroclor 1254-induced rat S9 mix using Salmonella typhimurium tester strain TA102, which is sensitive to agents producing reactive oxygen species (ROS). In the presence of S9, 4-Ab, Bz, N-acetyl-benzidine, and 3,3-dimethoxybenzidine were strongly mutagenic in TA102, whereas, 3,3,5,5-tetra-met… Show more

“…There are many research papers on the genotoxicity of DCB in vivo and in vitro. In the in vitro assays, DCB was mutagenic in Salmonella typhimurium [Makena and Chung, ], increased the frequency of sister chromatid exchange [Ohe et al, ], and produced unscheduled DNA synthesis and single‐strand DNA breaks in human cells [Chen et al, ]. In the in vivo assay, DCB increased the frequency of micronuclei [Čihák and Vontorková, ] and chromosomal aberrations in bone marrow cells [You et al, ] and increased unscheduled DNA synthesis in the livers of rats [Čihák and Vontorková, ].…”

“…Benzidine in this model was converted by horseradish peroxidase in the presence of H 2 O 2 into a primary cation-radical, further oxidation of which produced a monoprotonated diimine [5]. The oxidation product reacted with DNA purines and eventually formed cross links in the biomolecule.…”

“…The DNA-protector activity of the lignans was assessed using a model for DNA damage by peroxidase oxidation products of benzidine, which is an indirect action carcinogen [4][5][6]. Benzidine in this model was converted by horseradish peroxidase in the presence of H 2 O 2 into a primary cation-radical, further oxidation of which produced a monoprotonated diimine [5].…”
