In vivo dosimetry of 4-aminobiphenyl in rats via a cysteine adduct in hemoglobin
Abstract
The feasibility of monitoring doses of 4-aminobiphenyl (ABP) via adduction to hemoglobin was investigated. Rats dosed with ABP (from 0.5 micrograms/kg to 5 mg/kg) formed a stable covalent hemoglobin:ABP adduct. Approximately 5% of a single dose was bound as hemoglobin:ABP; chronic dosing led to an accumulation of the adduct to a level 30 times greater than that found after a single dose. Facile in vitro hydrolysis of the adduct regenerated ABP, allowing detection at the sub-ng level. Human hemoglobin was also readily adducted, using N-hydroxy-ABP in vitro. The predominant site of adduction appeared to be the cysteine residue in hemoglobin. The use of such adducts as dosimeters for arylamine exposures in humans is discussed.
