    Notes: Abstract On the basis of previous determinations of pharmacokinetic parameters for inhaled vinyl chloride in men, rhesus monkeys, and rats, and on improved pharmacokinetic models a pharmacokinetic treatment of the problem of “peak concentrations” of vinyl chloride, as occuring in industrial practice, became possible. For the calculations, metabolic elimination kinetics of vinyl chloride was assumed to be first order as experiments in different species including rhesus monkeys showed “linear” pharmacokinetics up to atmospheric exposures of 200–300 ppm. The distribution of vinyl chloride between atmosphere and organism under different conditions was evaluated using “steady-state-kinetics”. After treating the processes of “influx”, “efflux”, and “metabolism”, the numerical values for the parameters derived from a human kinetic experiment were used to theoretically calculate the time courses of concentration of vinyl chloride in the organism and of the cumulative amount of vinyl chloride metabolized, under the conditions of (a) a 2 h constant exposure to 5 ppm vinyl chloride and (b) two subsequent “peaks” of 50 ppm with a duration of 5 min each. This model calculation suggested that, regardless of the exposure profile, the amount of (reactive) metabolites formed from vinyl chloride would soleley be a function of the mean atmospheric vinyl chloride concentration over time. The general validity of this suggested rule could subsequently be demonstrated. As the concentration of the reactive metabolite of vinyl chloride responsible for the carcinogenic effect at the target site must be a resultant of both formation and inactivation, an evaluation of the differential risk of different exposure profiles can reasonably be based on biochemical examinations of the “detoxifying” pathways. This points out the relevance of studies of the patterns of different metabolites of vinyl chloride in man under varying exposure profiles.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung In einem geschlossenen System wurden Ratten initialen Konzentrationen an [1,2-14C] Vinylchlorid von unter 100 ppm ausgesetzt. Bei einer Besetzung des Systems durch 3 Ratten wurde in der Atmosphäre eine Halbwertszeit des gasförmigen Vinylchlorid von 1,13 ± 0,12 Std gemessen. Bei einem Volumen des Systems von 10,3 l ergab die Berechnung der Vinylchlorid Clearance, daß nur ca. 40% des von den Ratten eingeatmeten Vinylchlorid resorbiert wurde. Aus diesem Grunde führten Änderungen der Atemtätigkeit nicht zu Änderungen der Aufnahmegeschwindigkeit von Vinylchlorid. Durch sehr wirksame Inhibitoren von Cytochrom-P-450-abhängigen mikrosomalen Oxidationen (3-Bromphenyl-4(5)-imidazol und 6-Nitro-1,2,3-benzothiadiazol) konnte die Aufnahme von Vinylchlorid vollständig verhindert werden. SKF 525 A und 5,6-Dimethyl-1,2,3-benzothiadiazol waren in dieser Hinsicht weit weniger wirksam. Durch Vorbehandlung der Ratten mit DDT und, zum geringeren Maße, mit Clotrimazol wurde die Aufnahme von Vinylchlorid gesteigert. Keine signifikante Steigerung trat auf nach Vorbehandlung mit Phenobarbital, 3-Methylcholanthren, Rifampicin und nach chronischer Alkoholgabe. Unmittelbar nach Beendigung der Exposition wurden die höchsten Radioaktivitätswerte in Leber und Niere festgestellt. Die Metabolite von 14C-Vinylchlorid wurden sehr schnell ausgeschieden. Bereits nach 24 Std wurden im Urin 69,4±2,6% der inkorporierten Radioaktivität gemessen.
    Notes: Abstract Rats were exposed to [1,2-14C] vinyl chloride in a closed system at initial concentrations below 100 ppm. When the system was occupied by 3 rats, a half-life of vinyl chloride in the system's atmosphere of 1.13 ± 0.12 h was observed. The volume of the system was 10.3 l. Calculation of the clearance of vinyl chloride from the system revealed that about 40% of inspired vinyl chloride is absorbed by lung. Therefore, changes in respiration did not influence uptake of vinyl chloride. Uptake of vinyl chloride by the rats was completely blocked by acute pretreatment with potent inhibitors of cytochrome-P-450-dependent microsomal drug metabolism (i.e., by 35 mg/kg 3-bromophenyl-4(5)-imidazole or 50 mg/kg 6-nitro-1,2,3-benzothiadiazole in 0.6 ml/kg DMSO). A weaker inhibition was observed after dosing SKF 525 A or 5,6-dimethyl-1,2,3-benzothiadiazole (50 mg/kg in 0.6 ml/kg DMSO). Metyrapone did not cause inhibition. Uptake of vinyl chloride was increased by pretreatment with DDT and, to a lesser extent, with clotrimazol. No significant stimulation of uptake was observed after pretreatment with phenobarbital, 3-methylcholanthrene, rifampicin, or chronic ethanol treatment. Immediately after exposure, highest radioactivity levels were observed in liver and kidney. The radioactive metabolites of 14C-vinyl chloride were rapidly excreted, largely by the kidneys. Excretion of radioactivity in the urine was 69.4 ± 2.6% within 24 h.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Wird Vinylchlorid aus der Atmosphere eingeatmet, so stellt sich ein Gleichgewicht zwischen dem Vinylchlorid in der Luft und dem Organismus ein. In erster Linie reichert sich nicht metabolisiertes Vinylchlorid im Fettgewebe an. Für dieses Verteilungsverhalten dürfte die Lipophilie des Vinylchlorid Ausschlag gebend sein. Das Konzentrationsverhältnis von Vinylchlorid in einzelnen Organen bleibt über den gesamten untersuchten Konzentrationsbereich von 25 his 10.000 ppm Vinylchlorid in der Expositionsatmosphäre konstant. Aus dem Gleichgewicht wird Vinylchlorid dem Metabolismus zugeführt. Metabolite reichern sich, im Gegensatz zum unveränderten Vinylchlorid, vor allem in Leber und Niere an.
    Notes: Summary Rats have been pretieatet with 6-nitro-1.2.3-benzothiadiazole which completely blocks metabolism of vinyl chloride. If the animals are exposed to atmospheric vinyl chloride, formation of an equilibrium between the compound in the gas phase and in the animal's orgnism is observed. Unmetabolized vinyl chloride is concentrated in adipose tissue. The distribution pattern of vinyl chloride in different organs of the rat is constant over the concentration range of 25–10,000 ppm of vinyl chloride in the exposure atmosphere. Distribution of metabolites of vinyl chloride contrasts to that of the original compound; metabolites primarily are concentrated in liver and in kidneys.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Akute Acrylnitril-Intoxikationen können mit Bewußtlosigkeit, Krämpfen und Atemstillstand zum Tode führen. Die gebräuchlichen Cyanid-Antidote haben sich hierbei als nicht ausreichend effektiv erwiesen. In früheren Tierversuchen konnten wir zeigen, daß die Cyanid-Antidote nur bei der oralen Acrylnitril-Intoxikation einen therapeutischen Wert haben. Die Cyanid-Abspaltung ist bei der inhalativen Acrylnitril-Vergiftung nur gering, im Gegensatz zur oralen Intoxikation. Bei der Acrylnitril Inhalation steht die toxische Wirkung des Gesamtmoleküls (Cyanethylierung) im Vordergrund. Als Antidote haben sich hier thiolhaltige Substanzen als effektiv erwiesen. In weiteren Tierversuchen wird gezeigt, daß N-Acetyl-Cystein das überlegene Antidot bei der inhalativen Acrylnitril-Intoxikation ist. Aufgrund der Erfahrungen mit der Injektion von hohen Dosen N-Acetyl-Cystein bei der Paracetamol-Intoxikation wird ein entsprechendes Therapieschema empfohlen.
    Notes: Summary Acute acrylonitrile intoxications are followed by loss of consciousness, convulsions, respiratory arrest, and may end fatally. Common cyanide antidotes have not proved to be effective. In previous animal experiments we could demonstrate that the cyanide antidotes show some protective effect only after oral acrylonitrile application. Only a minimal amount of inhaled acrylonitrile will be transformed into cyanide, in contrast to pharmacokinetics after oral intake. After acrylonitrile inhalation the toxic effect of the whole molecule (cyanethylation) is important, and sulfhydryl compounds show antidotal effects. Further animal experiments demonstrate the superior antidotal effects of N-acetyl-cysteine after acrylonitrile inhalation. Intravenous injection of N-acetyl-cysteine in high doses is recommended according to the treatment of paracetamol poisoning.

    Notes: Summary Microsomal uptake irreversible protein binding of labelled trichloroethylene was measured following incubation with rat liver microsomes in an all-glass vacuum system. If the cofactor for oxidative metabolism, NADPH, is not added, the gaseous trichloroethylene rapidly equilibrates with the microsomal suspension. Addition of NADPH results in a further uptake of 14C-trichloroethylene from the gas phase, linearly with time, which is due to enzymic metabolism. This part of uptake is inhibited by some arylimidazoles and 1.2.3-benzothiadiazoles. The compounds of greatest inhibitory potency were 6-chloro-1.2.3-benzothiadiazole and 5,6-dimethyl-1.2.3-benzothiadiazole. Part of.the metabolites of 14C-trichloroethylene formed by rat liver microsomes were irreversibly bound to microsomal protein, amounting up to 1 nmol per mg microsomal protein per hour. Model experiments on uptake of 14C-trichloroethylene from the gas phase by albumin solutions and liposomal suspensions (from lecithin) showed a rapid equilibration of trichloroethylene also with these systems. Comparison with previous analogous data on vinyl chloride revealed an about 10 times higher affinity of trichloroethylene to albumin and lipid, consistent with the behaviour of both compounds in the rat liver microsomal system.
