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

Glutathione conjugates of 2-bromohydroquinone (GSyl-BHQ) cause renal proximal tubular necrosis that is dependent upon the activity of gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT). GGT is present in embryonic yolk sac and its activity increases with gestational age, suggesting that the developing embryo might

The formation of potentially reactive thiols has been postulated to play a role in the nephrotoxicity caused by a number of glutathione and/or cysteine conjugates. However, the inherent reactivity of such compounds has precluded both their identification in biological systems

2-Bromohydroquinone (BHQ) plays an important role in bromobenzene-induced nephrotoxicity and is a model toxic hydroquinone. Since BHQ has a quinone nucleus and various quinones have been shown to produce cytotoxicity via oxidative stress, the goal of this study was to
