✦ Synopsis


Following topical application of tricycloquinazoline-14C (0.03 p M ) to mice, radioactivity was covalently bound to soluble and particulate skin proteins. The maxinium level of binding to soluble proteins (equivalent to 4 . 2 ~ p M TCQlmg) was reached after 24 hours and that to particulate proteins (2.5 x TCQImg) afrer 48 hours. These binding levels are lower than those observed with carcinogenic and nori-carcinogenic hydrocarbons studit.d under similar conditions. Treatment with doses of tricycloquinazoline greater than 0.03 p M did not produce increased levels of binding. The radioactivity associated with pvoteins was liberated following treatments ( 4 N KOH or 6 N HCI) which extensively degrade proteins. None of this radioactive material was identijSable as unchanged tricycloquinazoline. In the soluble proteins, radioactivity was bound almost exclusively to protein having the mobility of albumin whilst no significant radioactivity was associated with h proteins.

This work was undertaken to determine if the ultrastructural changes seen in mouse skin carcinogenesis ( Tarin, 1967a) are specific to the carcinogenic process. Electron microscopic examination of skin treated with non-carcinogenic irritant chemicals (benzene, turpentine) showed that the dermo-epid
