2-Bromohydroquinone was identified as a metabolite of both bromobenzene and o-bromophenol in the rat in vivo and in vitro. Identification was based on high-pressure liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Formation of 2-bromohydroquinone by rat liver microsomes from both bromobenzene

Homogenates from rat renal papillae, a rich source of the prostaglandin (PG) H synthase system (PHS), metabolized [14C]2-bromohydroquinone, in the presence of arachidonic acid, to products which are covalently bound to protein. The co-oxidation of 2-bromohydroquinone caused a concentration-dependent stimulation

We have previously shown that the renal necrosis observed after 2-bromohydroquinone (2-BrHQ) administration to rats is probably caused by the formation of 2-Br-(diglutathion-S-yl)HQ (2-Br-[diGSyl]HQ), since injection of this conjugate caused severe proximal tubular necrosis. In the present study we report

Glutathione (GSH) conjugates of 2-bromohydroquinone are more difficult to oxidize than the parent hydroquinone. Hydrolysis catalyzed by gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GT), however, results in the formation of the corresponding cysteine conjugate which is more readily oxidized than the parent hydroquinone.

2-Bromohydroquinone (BHQ) is a nephrotoxic metabolite of bromobenzene and a model toxic hydroquinone. The primary goal of these studies was to determine whether BHQ produces toxicity in rabbit renal proximal tubules by inhibiting mitochondrial function. BHQ induces a specific sequence
