Abstract: | The metabolism of some xenobiotics can lead to the formation of reactive intermediates with mutagenic/carcinogenic properties. With the carcinogenic PAH these have been identified as bay-region diol-epoxides.1 Phenanthrene, a non-carcinogenic, bay-region containing model PAH, is metabolised in vivo by bony fish at the proximate bay-region position, whereas mammals and other marine organisms mainly form the K-region metabolite 9,10-dihydro-9,10-dihydroxy-phenanthrene.2 We wanted to investigate this difference more closely by studying the regiospecificity of phenanthrene metabolism in vitro both with microsomes from differently pretreated cod and with isolated cytochrome P-450 isozymes from BNF-induced cod.3 Secondly, by preparing antibodies to the major isozyme isolated (called cod P-450c), we investigated the immunochemical properties of the variously treated cod liver microsomes. |
