Abstract:Introduction: ß-chloroprene (2-chloro-1,3-butadiene; CP) causes lung tumors after inhalation exposures in rats and mice. Mice develop these tumors at lower exposures than rats. In rats CP exposures cause depletion of lung glutathione (GSH).Methods: PBPK models developed to relate the appearance of mouse lung tumors with rates of CP metabolism to reactive metabolites or total amounts metabolized during exposures have been expanded to include production of reactive metabolites from CP. The extended PBPK model de… Show more
