Abstract:
CCl4-induced liver damage was modeled in monolayer cultures of rat primary hepatocytes with a focus on involvement of covalent binding of CCl4 metabolites to cell components and/or peroxidative damage as the cause of injury.(1) Covalent binding of 14C-labeled metabolites was detected in hepatocytes immediately after exposure to CCl4. (2) Low oxygen partial pressure increased the reductive metabolism of CCl4 and thus covalent binding. (3) [14C]-CCl4 was bound to lipids and to proteins throughout subcellular fractions. Binding occurred preferentially to triacylglycerols and phospholipids, with p

Abstract:
Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) hepatotoxicity is one of the most frequently used experimental models to study the mechanism of cell damage by metabolites of xenobiotics (1,2). Cytochrome P-450 enzymes are considered to be involved in the metabolic activation of CCl4 to generate the trichloromethyl (.CCl3), which in turn may be converted to the peroxy radical (.00-CCl3) (3,4). In our previous studies, we have demonstrated CCl4-induced edematous response by using proton magnetic resonance imaging and electron microscopy (2,5). However, these studies have not given any consideration to Kupffer cells
