3-Nitrobenzanthrone (3-NBA) is one of the most potent mutagens in the Ames Salmonella typhimurium assay and a suspected human carcinogen recently identified in diesel exhaust and in airborne particulate matter. 3-Aminobenzanthrone (3-ABA), 3-acetylaminobenzanthrone (3-Ac-ABA) and N-acetyl-N-hydroxy-3-aminobenzanthrone (N-Ac-N-OH-ABA) have been identified as 3-NBA metabolites. In the present study we investigated the genotoxic effects of 3-NBA and its metabolites in the human B lymphoblastoid…

It is demonstrated for the first time, to the authors' knowledge, that by inducing hepatic NQO1 and CYP1A1/2, both 3-NBA and 3-ABA increase the enzymatic activation of these two compounds to reactive DNA adduct-forming species, thereby enhancing their own genotoxic potential.

The role of human hepatic NQO1 is shown to reduce 3- NBA to species being further activated by NATs and SULTs, indicating that 3-NBA is predominantly activated by cytosolic nitroreductases rather than microsomal POR.

The results show that p53’s influence on carcinogen activation depends on the agent studied and thereby on the XMEs that mediate the bioactivation of that particular compound.

It was shown that metabolic conversion of NBA is associated with DNA adduct formation in rat alveolar type II epithelial cells and the formation and covalent DNA binding of reactive NBA metabolites may provide the rational for a mechanism of lung carcinogenesis based on direct genotoxicity.
