Identification of a genotoxic mechanism for 2-nitroanisole carcinogenicity and of its carcinogenic potential for humans

Abstract: 2-Nitroanisole (2-NA) is an important industrial pollutant and a potent bladder carcinogen for rodents. The mechanism of its carcinogenicity was investigated in this study. Here we have used two independent methods, (32)P-post-labeling and (3)H-labeled 2-NA, to show that 2-NA binds covalently to DNA in vitro after reductive activation by human hepatic cytosol and xanthine oxidase (XO). We also investigated the capacity of 2-NA to form DNA adducts in vivo. Male Wistar rats were treated i.p. with 2-NA (0.15 mg/k… Show more

“…(ii) 32 P-labeled adducts were also resolved by a modification described by Reddy et al 32 . This procedure has been shown to be suitable for resolution of DNA adducts formed by oanisidine 36 or o-nitroanisole 37 . The solvents used in this case were: D1, 2.3 M sodium phosphate (pH 5.77); D2 was omitted; D3, 2.7 M lithium formate, 5.1 M urea (pH 3.5); D4, 0.36 M sodium phosphate, 0.23 M Tris-HCl, 3.8 M urea (pH 8.0).…”

“…After D4 development and brief water wash, the sheets were developed (along D4) in 1.7 M sodium phosphate (pH 6.0) (D5), to the top of the plate, followed by an additional 30-40 min development with the TLC tank partially opened, to allow the radioactive impurities to concentrate in a band close to the top edge (method B)(ref. 32,36,37 ). Adduct levels were calculated in units of relative adduct labeling (RAL), which is the ratio of c.p.m.…”

“…Xanthine oxidase is the principal enzyme responsible for the reduction metabolism of o-nitroanisole, catalyzing formation of N-(2-methoxyphenyl)hydroxylamine and o-anisidine 4,5 . Deoxyguanosine adducts derived from N- (2-methoxyphenyl)hydroxylamine were found in vivo in tissues, mainly urinary bladder, of rats treated with o-nitroanisole as well as in vitro after incubation of o-nitroanisole with human hepatic cytosols or purified buttermilk xanthine oxidase 4 .…”

In contrast, human hepatic microsomal cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes as well as these of experimental animals participate in the detoxification metabolism of o-nitroanisole, leading to its demethylation, which enables its excretion from the organism 6 .…”
