The binding of labeled carcinogen [3H]DMBA to murine epidermal cells (MEC) DNA in culture has been studied. The influence of unlabeled noncarcinogenic and carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), several PAH metablites, and various directly and indirectly acting non-PAH carcinogens on the binding of [3H]DMBA to MEC DNA has been examined. All the carcinogenic PAH and some of non-carcinogenic PAH effectively inhibit the binding of [3H]DMBA to MEC DNA. The non-PAH chemical carcinogens requiring metabolic activation also reduce the binding of labeled DMBA to MEC DNA; however, a higher concentration of these compounds is required for 50% inhibition of binding than the concentrations of PAH for the same degree of inhibition of binding of [3H]DMBA to MEC DNA. The directly acting carcinogens do not significantly inhibit the binding of [3H]DMBA to DNA. The relationship between structures of PAH and their ability to inhibit the binding of [3H]DMBA to MEC DNA is also discussed. Thus, it appears that the binding of DMBA to cellular DNA is primarily controlled at a level of metabolism and to some extent at the level of binding of reactive metabolites to DNA.
