The bio-distribution of the neurotoxic 1,2-diethylbenzene (1,2-DEB) was studied in male Sprague-Dawley rats after intravenous administration of [(14)C] 1,2-DEB (1 mg kg(-1)). The highest concentrations of [(14)C] non-volatile metabolites, determined by whole-body auto-radiography, were in the nasal cavity, ethmoid turbinates

In a previous study, it was shown that the neurotoxic compound 1,2-diethylbenzene (1,2-DEB) is mainly hydroxylated in the alkyl chain to give 1-(2'-ethylphenyl)ethanol (1,2-EPE) and excreted in urine of rats as two glucuronide compounds (GA1 and GA2). Some findings have

Sprague-Dawley rats were administered 1,2-diethylbenzene (1,2-DEB) by gavage on gestational days (GD) 6 through 20 at dose levels of 0 (corn oil), 5, 15, 25 or 35 mg/kg. The dams were euthanized on GD21 and the offspring were weighed and

1. Biotransformation of 1,2-diethenylbenzene (1) in rat was studied. Five urinary metabolites were isolated by extraction of acid hydrolysed urine and identified by nmr and mass spectroscopy, namely, 1-(2-ethenylphenyl)ethane-1,2-diol (2) 2-ethenylmandelic acid (3), 2-ethenylphenylglyoxylic acid (4), 2-ethenylphenylacetylglycine (5) N-acetyl-S-[1-(2-ethenylphenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl]cysteine (6)

Motor neuron axonopathy in diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis can be modeled and probed with neurotoxic chemicals that induce similar patterns of pathology, such as axonal spheroids that represent focal accumulation of anterogradely transported neurofilaments (NFs). The aromatic gamma-diketone-like
