Binding of Chemical Carcinogens to Macromolecules in Cultured Human Colon: Brief Communication

Metabolic activation of different chemical classes of carcinogens was studied in cultured human colon epithelia. Human colon epithelia were maintained in explant culture up to 4 days. Binding of benzo[a]pyrene, dimethylnitrosamine, and 1,2-dimethylhydrazlne was found In both cell DNA and protein. 1,...

Zusammenfassung:Metabolic activation of different chemical classes of carcinogens was studied in cultured human colon epithelia. Human colon epithelia were maintained in explant culture up to 4 days. Binding of benzo[a]pyrene, dimethylnitrosamine, and 1,2-dimethylhydrazlne was found In both cell DNA and protein. 1,2-Dimethylhydrazlne methylated DNA at both N-7 and O-6 positions of guanine.
