T Gichner et al.
Mutagenesis, 1(2), 107-109 (1986-03-01)
The organic solvents dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO), acetone, ethanol and dimethylformamide inhibited the mutagenic activity of the promutagens dimethylnitrosamine and methylbutylnitrosamine in a higher plant Arabidopsis thaliana. In contrast, the direct-acting mutagens N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) and N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) were not affected by the
Nozomi Tsutsumi et al.
Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry, 18(23), 8284-8288 (2010-10-30)
N-Nitrosodialkylamines are known to be potent indirect-acting mutagens/carcinogens, which are activated by cytochrome P450. The reaction product of N-nitroso-N-methylbutylamine (NMB) with modified Fenton's reagent supplemented with copper salt (Fe²(+)-Cu²(+)-H₂O₂) was reported to be mutagenic in Salmonella typhimurium TA1535 without S9
J G Farrelly et al.
Cancer research, 42(6), 2105-2109 (1982-06-01)
With the use of rat liver preparations, the in vitro microsomal metabolism of methylethylnitrosamine, methyl-n-butylnitrosamine, and methyl(2-phenylethyl)nitrosamine labeled with deuterium in the methyl and alpha-methylene positions has been compared with that of the parent (unlabeled) compounds. All three forms of
K E Appel et al.
Carcinogenesis, 7(4), 659-663 (1986-04-01)
To demonstrate whether there are any pathways of nitrite formation from N-nitrosamines other than reductive denitrosation by cytochrome P-450 we performed the following experiments. An esterified alpha-hydroxylated nitrosamine was incubated in a microsomal system to test if nitrite generation is
W Lijinsky et al.
Journal of cancer research and clinical oncology, 106(3), 171-175 (1983-01-01)
The carcinogenic effectiveness of nitrosomethyl-n-butylamine,-n-hexylamine and -n-heptylamine was compared by administration to F344 rats at various concentrations in drinking water and by gavage in oil. Nitrosomethylbutylamine induced only tumors of the upper gastrointestinal tract, and was very toxic. Nitrosomethylhexylamine was
