1. Oxidation of estradiol and ethynylestradiol at ring A and ring B by rat liver microsomes and NADPH-regenerating system in vitro is inhibited by the two arylimidazole insecticide synergists, 3-bromophenyl-4(5)-imidazole and 1-naphthyl-4(5)-imidazole, but not by the benzothiadiazole insectide synergists 6-nitro-1,2,3-benzothiadiazole and 5,6-dimethyl-1,2,3-benzothiadiazole. The Ki of the most potent inhibitor, 1-naphthyl-4(5)-imidazole, was 3 X 10(-6) M. 2. 6-Nitro-1,2,3-benzothiadiazole (10(-6) M), which did not inhibit hydroxylation of the estrogens, inhibited oxidation of aniline and demethylation of ethylmorphine, p-nitroanisole, and aminopyrine by 30-70%. 5,6-Dimethyl-1,2,3-benzothiadiazole inhibited only demethylation of p-nitroanisole and aminopyrine. From these results the presence of different hepatic microsomal mixed function oxidases may be inferred. 3. 1-Naphthyl-4(5)-imidazole, the most potent inhibitor of hydroxylation of drugs and estrogen rings A and B, also inhibited microsomal estrogen-16alpha-hydroxylation. 4. These data show that insecticide synergists may effect the breakdown of estrogenic hormones in the organism.
