Modified Ames test using a strain expressing human sulfotransferase 1C2 to assess the mutagenicity of methyleugenol

Abstract: IntroductionSeveral alkenylbenzenes, including methyleugenol (ME), are present in a wide range of botanicals and exhibit carcinogenic and mutagenic properties. Negative results are generally obtained for alkenylbenzenes in standard in vitro genotoxicity tests, including the Ames test. A lack of mutagenicity observed in such tests is thought to result from impaired metabolic activation of alkenylbenzenes via hydroxylation, with subsequent sulfoconjugation to its ultimate mutagenic or carcinogenic form. Although… Show more

“…In addition, XRCC1 does not appear to influence cisplatin ICL non-productive processing. The pathways on the right side are productive ICL DNA repair pathways that have been shown to occur in both G0/G1 and S phases of the cell cycle [reviewed in (45, 46)]. We have previously shown an epistatic relationship between BER and MMR in mediating cisplatin sensitivity via specific nucleotide mis-incorporation by Polβ at cisplatin ICL sites and subsequent MMR protein binding (12).…”

“…Treatment of rats with Aroclor-1254 preferentially induces oxidative liver enzymes, particularly cytochrome P450 families 1-3 (Dubois et al 1996) and favors oxidative activation. However, the conjugating activity of such S9 mix is limited, especially in the absence of added cofactors (Glatt et al 2012;Honda et al 2016), and thus this model does not totally represent the mammalian biotransformation capabilities. Furthermore, the cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes induced in rat liver are not fully representative of the P450 activity profile of human liver (Dubois et al 1996).…”

“…Among the key human enzymes poorly represented in rat liver S9 are sulfotransferase (SULT), N-acetyl transferase (NAT), and some extrahepatic P450 enzymes such as CYP1B1 (Jin et al 2018). Therefore, the metabolite profile can be substantially different in genotoxicity models compared to the human metabolite profile and may lead to either false positive or false negative results depending on whether the biotransformation is skewed toward the generation of reactive intermediates or detoxication products of the primary compounds (Glatt et al 2012;Honda et al 2016).…”
