Ethylene oxide is a genotoxic carcinogen with widespread uses as industrial chemical intermediate and gaseous sterilant. 2-hydroxyethylated N-terminal valine in Hb is a good biomarker for biological monitoring of ethylene oxide exposure, because of its stability. For measuring the hemoglobin adduct formed by exposure of ethylene oxide, we studied the determination of (N-2-hydroxy-ethyl)valine(HEV) in hemoglobin adduct by using GC/MS. Firstly we synthesized HEV with 2-amino-ethanol and bromoisovaleric acid(BIVA) and confirmed it with GC/MS-FID. Its fragmentations were m/z 116(base ion, M+-45) and m/z 130(M+-31). For measuring HEV with higher sensitivity, we use derivatives which were PFPITH(pentafluorophenylisothiocianate) and TBDMS (tributyldimethylsilylation) by using Edman procedure. Its fragmentation were m/z 425(M+-57), m/z 383(M+-99) and m/z 172(M+-310) by using GC/MS. We did biological monitoring for mice inhalation exposure with 400 ppm ethylene oxide. The concentrations of hemoglobin adduct were $168{\pm}3.8\;and\;512{\pm}04$(nmol g-1 globin) at 0.5 hr/day 400 ppm ethylene oxide inhalation exposure group, and $631{\pm}17\;and\;2265{\pm}9.4$(nmol g-1 globin) at 1.0 hr/day 400 ppm ethylene oxide inhalation exposure for 1 and 4 weeks, respectively. We confirmed that (N-2-hydroxy-ethyl)valine(HEV) of hemoglobin was a good biomarker for biomonitoring of ethylene oxide exposure, and can measured with derivatives such as PFPITH(pentafluorophenylisothiocianate) and TBDMS(tributyldimethylsilylation) by using GC/MS.

Diesel exhaust (DE) has been recognized as a noxious mutagen and/or carcinogen, because its components can form DNA adducts. Mechanisms governing the susceptibility to DE and the efficiency of such DNA adduct formation require clarification. The transcription factor Nrf2 is essential for inducible and/or constitutive expression of a group of detoxification and antioxidant enzymes, and we hypothesized that the nrf2 gene knockout mouse might serve as an excellent model system for analyzing DE toxicity. To address this hypothesis, lungs from nrf2(-/-) and nrf2(+/-) mice were examined for the production of xenobiotic-DNA adducts after exposure to DE (3 $mg/m^{3}$ suspended particulate matter) for 4 weeks. Whereas the relative adduct levels (RAL) were significantly increased in the lungs of both nrf2(+/-) and nrf2(-/-) mice upon exposure to DE, the increase of RAL in the lungs from nrf2(-/-) mice exposed to DE were approximately 2.3-fold higher than that of nrf2(+/-) mite exposed to DE. In contrail, cytochrome P4501Al mRNA levels in the nrf2(-/-)mouse lungs were similar to those in the nrf2(+/-) mouse lungs even after exposure to DE, suggesting that suppressed activity of phase II drug-metabolizing enzymes is important in giving ise to the increased level of DNA adducts in the Nrf2-null mutant mouse subjected to DE. Importantly, severe hyperplasia and accumulation of the oxidative DNA adduct 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine were observed in the bronchial epidermis of nrf(-/-) mite following DE exposure. These results demonstrate the increased susceptibility of the nrf2 germ line mutant mouse to DE exposure and indicate the nrf2 gene knockout mouse nay represent a valuable model for the assessment of respiratory DE toxicity.

1. 천궁약침액은 1${\times}$에서 15.1%의 cytochrome P4501A1 저해효과를 나타냈으며 그 억제효과는 약침액의 농도가 높을수록 증가하였다. 2 천궁약침액은 benzo[a]pyrene과 세포의 DNA 결합을 유의성있게 억제시켰다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼때 천궁약침액은 효과적으로 cytochrome P4501A1 효소를 저해했으며, 발암물질과 DNA의 결합을 억제시켜 외부 물질 또는 대사물에 의해 일어날 수 있는 돌연변이와 암 발생을 억제할 것으로 사료된다.

포화지방산 또는 불포화지방산의 분리방법인 요소부 가법이 지닌 가메탄올 분해(methanolysis)와 농축물 회수의 곤란함 등의 문제를 해결하기 위하여 지방산과 요소의 부가화합물 형성의 반응매질로 유기용매를 사용하고 요소의 습윤제로 물을 사용한 새로운 요소부가법을 제시하였다. 어유를 원료로 제조한 지방산을 헵탄, 헥산, 이소옥탄같은 비극성 유기용매에 용해키시고 요소와 요소의 습윤제인 물을 첨가하여 부가화합물 형성을 유도한 후 요소와 부가화합물을 잘 형성하지 않는 불포화지방산 분획을 회수하여 지방산 조성을 분석한 결과 EPA, DHA 및 이들의 전구물질을 포함한 고도불포화지방산이 80%이상인 것으로 나타났다. 이 고도불포화지방산 농축물내에 EPA와 DHA 함량은 사용하는 유기용매으 종류에 따라서 변화되었는데, 헵탄과 에틸 에테르 등을 사용할 경우에는 EPA의 농축에 효과가 높았다. 이러한 특성을 이용하여 우선 펜탄을 사용하여 DHA를 농축하고 다시 헵탄을 사용하여 EPA의 농축을 시도한 바 어유 지방산으로부터 DHA가 50%인 농축물과 EPA가 53%인 분획을 각각 얻을 수 있었다.

Recently, we have reported that 2-bromopropane might have an immunotoxic potential in rats when exposed for 28 days. In the present studies, the possibility of 2i-deoxyguanosine abduct formation by 2- bromopropane was investigated in vitro to elucidate molecular mechanism of 2-bromopropane-induced immunosuppression. $N^7-Guanine adduct$ of 2'-bromopropane (i.e., $N^7-isopropyl$ guanine) was chemically synthesized and structurally characterized by analysis of UV,$^1H-NMR,{\;}^{13}C-NMR$, COSY and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry to use as a reference material. Incubation of 2'-deoxyguanosine with an excess amount of 2-bromopropane in PBS buffer solution, pH 7.4, at $37^{\circ}C$ for 16 h, followed by a thermal hydrolysis, produced a detectable amount of $N^7-isopropyl$ guanine by an HPLC and UV analysis. The present results suggest that 2-bromopropane might form a DNA adduct in $N^7-position$ of 2'-deoxyguanosine at 3 Physiological condition.

In order to study how and why the stabilities of lanthanoid(III) complexes in solutions vary across the series, the formation constants of the adducts of tris(2-thenoyltrifluoroacetonato)lanthanoids(III) with seven carboxylic acids in chloroform have been determined by solvent extraction technique at 298K. The formation constants with carboxylic acids generally decrease with increasing the atomic number, but in the middle of the series, they change only slightly. Such trends have been interpreted as related to a change of the coordination number in the middle of the series. It has been attempted to determine the number of water molecules coordinated to the adducts as well as $Eu(TTA)_3$ in chloroform by measuring the fluorescence life time of europium(III), to ensure the assignment of the coordination number.

It is an established fact that most of the carcinogens implicate bay-region diol epoxides as the ultimate carcinogenic metabolites. These electrophiles react with nucleophilic sites in the cells to form abducts. It is the formation of carcinogenic-DNA adducts that is thought to initiate carcinogenesis. In our previous study we have reported chemopreventive property of Ginseng on 7,12-dimethylbenz (a)anthracene (DMBA) induced skin papillomagenesis in male Swiss albino mice. In this study we have examined the effect on formation of DMBA-DNA adducts in rat hepatocytes pretreated with ginseng. Primary cultures of rat hepatocytes were used. The cells wets treated with ginseng for 24 hrs and then with DMBA (iOn) for 18 hrs. Cells were then harvested, their DNA was isolated and analyzed by P)2 labelling. A significant reduction in the levels of DMBA-DNA adduces (adducts/108 nucleotides) was observed in all cultures pretreated with ginseng. The viability of cells was not affected by pre-treatment with ginseng. Our finding suggests that ginseng block or suppresses the events associated with chemical carcinogenesis by inhibiting metabolic activation of the carcinogens.
