Mice were injected sc with benzene or one of its metabolites, phenol, catechol, or hydroquinone. The ability of these compound to inhibit erythropoiesis was quantified by measuring the incorporation of 59Fe into developing erythrocytes. Benzene decreased 59Fe incorporation into developing erythrocytes in a dose-dependent manner. Maximum inhibition was observed when benzene was administered 48 hr prior to initiation of the 59Fe uptake test. The three metabolites of benzene also significantly inhibited 59Fe incorporation when they were administered 48 hr prior to initiation of 59Fe uptake assay. The degree of inhibition observed with the metabolites was not as great as that observed with benzene. Coadministration of the microsomal mixed-function oxidase inhibitor, 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole, abolished the erythropoietic toxicity of benzene and phenol but had no effect on the catechol- or hydroquinone-induced toxicity.
