Effects of thiol antioxidants on the atropselective oxidation of 2,2′,3,3′,6,6′-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB 136) by rat liver microsomes

Abstract: Chiral polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners, such as PCB 136, are atropselectively metabolized to various hydroxylated PCB metabolites (HO-PCBs). The present study investigates the effect of two thiol antioxidants, glutathione and N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), on profiles and chiral signatures of PCB 136 and its HO-PCB metabolites in rat liver microsomal incubations. Liver microsomes prepared from rats pretreated with phenobarbital were incubated with PCB 136 (5 μM) in the presence of the respective antioxidant… Show more

“…The following recent case study was chosen for a deeper investigation of the consequences of this hypothesis for enantioselective PCB metabolism. The study of Wu and Lehmler provided a nearly complete set of parameters, which allowed retrospective data analysis. In this study, liver microsomes from rats (pretreated with phenobarbital) were incubated with PCB 136 (5 μM) alone and also in the additional presence of antioxidants (0.01–10 mM of glutathione or N‐acetyl‐cysteine (NAC)).…”

“…In this study, liver microsomes from rats (pretreated with phenobarbital) were incubated with PCB 136 (5 μM) alone and also in the additional presence of antioxidants (0.01–10 mM of glutathione or N‐acetyl‐cysteine (NAC)). In each case, nonracemic PCB 136 (stronger prevalence of (−)‐PCB 136), as well as nonracemic metabolites (i.e., 5‐OH‐PCB 136, 4‐OH‐PCB‐136, and 4,5‐diOH‐PCB 136), were detected, whose shared concentrations amounted to 62–65 % of the parent compound . Higher antioxidant levels increased the relative abundance of 4,5‐diOH‐PCB 136 in the OH‐PCBs metabolite group from ∼3 to ∼12 %.…”

“…Since publication of this work, several articles have been published describing oxidation behavior of thiol-containing amino acids with glutathione, quantitative analysis of thiols in biofluids, and antioxidant behavior of thiols [164][165][166]. Clearly the analysis of thiol metabolites is of great interest.…”
