The effect of disulfiram (DSF), sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC), methyl diethyldithiocarbamate (Me-DDTC), and ethionamide on the hepatotoxic response of alpha-naphthylisothiocyanate (ANIT) was studied in the rat. The hyperbilirubinemic response of ANIT was significantly inhibited by ip or po DSF pretreatment. A more marked inhibition of toxicity occurred when DSF was given via ip injection. DDTC, Me-DDTC, and ethionamide significantly inhibited ANIT-induced hyperbilirubinemia. Me-DDTC is approximately three times more potent than DDTC as an inhibitor of toxicity. Approximately 16% of a dose of [35S]ANIT was excreted in the urine as inorganic sulfate 48 hr after dosing. Me-DDTC administered simultaneously with [35S]ANIT significantly reduced urinary [35S]sulfate excretion in the first 24 hr. Ethionamide reduced urinary [35S]sulfate excretion. Pretreatment with phenobarbital which stimulates toxicity in vivo increased urinary [35S]sulfate excretion 300% in the first 12 hr. Thus, this study shows that agents which sensitize or protect rats from the toxic effects of ANIT, correspondingly stimulate or inhibit the oxidative desulfuration of [35S]ANIT in vivo.
