4-Vinyl-1-cyclohexene (VCH) is ovotoxic in B6C3F(1) mice but not in Fischer-344 rats, which can be partially attributed to greater formation of toxic epoxides from VCH in mice compared with rats. Since repeated exposure to VCH is necessary to cause ovotoxicity
Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 144(1), 36-44 (1997-05-01)
4-Vinylcyclohexene (4-VCH), the dimer of 1,3-butadiene, is an ovarian toxicant in mice due to the formation of a diepoxide metabolite, but the tissue-specific site of formation of the metabolites is unknown. Microsomal preparations from liver, lung, and ovaries obtained from
Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 167(3), 191-198 (2000-09-14)
Extensive destruction of primordial follicles by exposure to ovarian toxicants can cause early menopause in women. Primordial follicle destruction is known to result from dosing of mice and rats with three polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), contaminants commonly found in cigarette

The stereochemical course of the biotransformation of 1,2-monoepoxides of 4-vinylcyclohexene (2 and 3) by liver microsomes from control and induced rats and by purified P4502B1 and P4502E1 has been determined. The epoxidation of monoexpodies cis-4-vinylcyclohexene 1,2-epoxide (2) and trans-4-vinylcyclohexene 1,2-epoxide

The occupational chemical 4-vinylcyclohexene (VCH) has been shown to cause destruction of small pre-antral follicles in ovaries of mice. Further, its monoepoxide metabolites, 1,2-VCH epoxide, 7,8-VCH epoxide, and the diepoxide, VCD, have been shown to cause pre-antral follicle loss in
