N-Nitrosodibutylamine (NDBA) and its omega-oxidized metabolites N-nitrosobutyl-4-hydroxybutylamine (4-OH-NDBA) and N-nitrosobutyl-3-carboxypropylamine (BCPN) are potent urinary bladder carcinogens. To study putative organ specific activation of BCPN, its alpha-oxidation by liver and urinary bladder microsomal fractions was investigated in comparison to NDBA and 4-OH-NDBA. Additionally, induction of DNA single strand breaks (SSB) was monitored in hepatocytes and in a human lymphoblastoid cell line (Namalva) in the presence and absence of external metabolic activation, including N-nitroso-t-butyl-n-butylamine as a negative control. BCPN was alpha-hydroxylated and dealkylated at both alkyl chains in small rates (about 1 nmol x mg protein-1 x 60 min-1) by microsomes from rat liver and pig urinary bladder epithelium. NDBA and 4-OH-NDBA were dealkylated at similarly low rates by pig urinary bladder microsomes, in strong contrast to the high debutylation rates observed for rat liver microsomes. Correspondingly, SSB induction by NDBA and 4-OH-NDBA was observed in Namalva cells with NDBA and 4-OH-NDBA in the presence of PB-induced rat liver microsomes but not with urinary bladder microsomes or without external activation. BCPN did not induce DNA-damage in Namalva cells (with or without external activation) or in rat hepatocytes. Significant induction of sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) and micronuclei, however, was observed in Namalva cells after incubation with NDBA and BCPN. Our data suggest activation of BCPN via alpha-oxidation in the urinary bladder, even though activation rate in-vitro is so low that a positive response is not detectable by several short-term tests.
