Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of cholesterol as a mouse skin lipid that reacts with nitrogen dioxide to yield a nitrosating agent, and of cholesteryl nitrite as the nitrosating agent produced in a chemical system from cholesterol.
TL;DR: Findings and the chromatographic behavior of a major NSA in the skin lipids of NO2-exposed mice suggested that this NSA was cholesteryl nitrite, which was identified from its spectral properties as the previously known compound, cholesterym-3-beta-nitrite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutagenicity of iso-butyl nitrite vapor in the Ames test and some relevant chemical properties, including the reaction of iso-butyl nitrite with phosphate.
TL;DR: The mutagenicity of iso‐butyl nitrite vapor and aqueous IBN solution in the Ames test is examined to help evaluate the hazard of sniffing this vapor, a habit which might play a role in the induction of Kaposi's sarcoma associated with acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydroxylation and dealkylation of methyl-n-butylnitrosamine and role of certain cytochrome P-450 isozymes in these reactions.

TL;DR: The 2-, 3- and 4-hydroxy derivatives were identified as new metabolites of methyl-n-butyl-nitrosamine, a carcinogen for the rat esophagus and liver, and monoclonal antibodies that inhibit specific cytochrome P-450 isozymes were used to identify the isoz enzymes involved in each reaction.
Journal Article
Nitrosamine formation from amines applied to the skin of mice after and before exposure to nitrogen dioxide.
TL;DR: It is concluded that nitrosamine formation in skin by this direct reaction between NO2 and the amine may be more important than the reaction of amines with NO2-derived NSA.
