β¦ Synopsis
Rats were exposed to [1,2-14C] vinyl chloride. Liver RNA was isolated, hydrolyzed, and the nucleosides separated on Aminex-A-6. Besides the physiological bases and 1,N6-ethenoadenosine, radioactivity was also incorporated into 3,N4-ethenocytidine. Radioactive 3,N4-ethenocytidine moieties were also formed on incubation of polycytidylic acid with rat liver microsomes, NADPH and [x4C] vinyl chloride. These alkylation mechanisms are consistent with the mutagenic and cancerogenic properties of vinyl chloride.

[1,2-14C]Vinyl bromide was incubated with rat liver microsomes, NADPH, and polyadenylic acid, polycytidylic acid, or RNA, respectively. Part of the adenosine moieties in RNA or in polyadenylic acid were alkylated and labelled 1,N6-ethenoadenosine structures were formed. Part of the cytidine moieties
We attempted to predict the in vivo metabolic clearance of alprazolam from in vitro metabolic studies using human liver microsomes and human CYP recombinants. Good correlations were observed between the intrinsic clearance (CL int ) for 4-hydroxylation and CYP3A4 content and between the CL int for a
