    Notes: Alkaline elution was employed to study DNA damage in CHO-Kl cells treated with a series of biotic and xenobiotic aldehydes. DNA cross-linking was measured in terms of the reduction in the effect of methyl methanesulphonate on the kinetics of DNA elution and was observed in cells treated with formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, methylglyoxal and malonaldehyde. Propionaldehyde, valeraldehyde, hexanal and 4-hydroxynonenal produced DNA single-strand breaks, or lesions which were converted to breaks in alkali. Both types of DNA damage occurred in cells exposed to malealdehyde. These findings support the hypothesis of a carcinogenic effect of the aldehydic products (malonaldehyde, methylglyoxal, propionaldehyde, hexanal, 4-hydroxynonenal) released in biomembranes during lipid peroxidation.

    Notes: A cell line derived from a Morris hepatoma, MH1C1, was examined for its in vitro expression of monooxygenases. These cells were found to contain different forms of cytochrome P450, as shown by the response to inducers, namely phenobarbital (PB), 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) and metyrapone (MP). MH1C1 cell monolayers exposed to PB or MC showed an increase in the concentration of two spectrally distinct forms of cytochrome P450. The PB and MC treatments elicited enzyme activities towards the substrates aminopyrine and benzo(a)pyrene, respectively. The cell treatment with metyrapone led to a simultaneous stimulation of aminopyrine demethylase and benzo(a)pyrene hydroxylase activities, so underlining the peculiar features of this inducer.

    Notes: Isolated rat hepatocytes exposed to CCl4 showed a stimulated formation of malonaldehyde after only 30-60 min incubation. Conversely, the onset of hepatocyte death was a relatively late event, being significant only after 2-3 h of treatment. A cause-effect relationship between the two phenomena has been demonstrated by using hepatocytes isolated from rats pretreated with alpha-tocopherol. Comparable results were obtained in vivo where supplementation with alpha-tocopherol 15 h before CCl4 dosing induced a partial or complete protection against the drug's necrogenic effect, depending on the concentration of the haloalkane used. Moreover, the vitamin supplementation prevented the CCl4-induced increase of liver total calcium content, probably by blocking alterations in the liver cell plasma membranes due to lipid peroxidation.
