ABSTRACT
Single intraperitoneal injections of octachlorostyrene (OCS) and hexachlorobenzene in genetically polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon "responsive' C57/BL/6 (B6) mice led to a time- and dose-dependent increase in the levels of liver microsomal cytochromes P-450 and b5 as well as in the activities of NADPH cytochrome P-450 (cytochrome c) reductase, ethylmorphine (EM) N-demethylase, 4-nitroanisole (PNA) O-demethylase and acetanilide 4-hydroxylase (AcA hydroxylase). No, or only a very moderate, increase in the activity of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase was seen after OCS and HCB, respectively. Pretreatments with phenobarbital (PB) or 3-methylcholanthrene (MC) both increased AcA hydroxylase activity to a similar degree, whereas pretreatment with polychlorinated biphenyls (Aroclor 1254) had an effect equal to the sum of PB and MC. Judged from sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis studies, OCS and HCB predominantly increased a microsomal polypeptide of apparent mol. wt 52,000, similar to PB. A reduced response was seen after OCS or HCB treatment of aromatic hydrocarbon "non-responsive' DBA/2 (D2) mice compared to B6 mice, both with respect to AcA hydroxylase as well as EM demethylase and PNA demethylase activities. OCS treatment of B6D2F1 mice resulted in a doubling of AcA hydroxylase activity, but in mice of the (B6D2)D2 backcross no distinct subgrouping of individual AcA hydroxylase activities were apparent. These results demonstrate that OCS is an inducer of the PB-type in mice and that induction of AcA hydroxylase by OCS is not regulated by the Ah locus.
