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

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

Microsomal epoxide hydrolase (mEH) is involved in the detoxification of xenobiotics that are or can form epoxide metabolites, including the ovotoxicant, 4-vinylcyclohexene (VCH). This industrial chemical is bioactivated by hepatic CYP450 to the diepoxide metabolite, VCD, which destroys mouse small
