Metabolic activation and DNA binding of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), N-nitrosodimethylamine (DMN) and benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) were compared in human, rat and mouse hepatocytes and human pulmonary alveolar macrophages (PAM). The degree of carcinogen activation by hepatocytes and PAM was measured by cell-mediated mutagenesis assays in which co-cultivated Chinese hamster V79 cells were used to monitor mutagenic metabolites. Hepatocytes from human, mouse and rat metabolized DMN and released the active metabolites to induce either ouabain- or 6-thioguanine-resistant mutation. The mutation frequencies mediated by hepatocytes of the 3 animal species were approximately 3-9 mutants/10(5) survivors at a concentration of 0.2 mM DMN. The variations of radioactivity bound to liver cell DNA were relatively small in cultured mouse, rat, and human hepatocytes exposed to 14C label DMN (0.5 mM) and the binding values were in a range of 6-12 X 10(3) pmoles/mg DNA. However, rat hepatocytes were at least 10-fold more effective than either human or mouse hepatocytes in generating mutagenic metabolites of AFB1 and also had a much higher AFB1 metabolite DNA-binding value. The AFB1 DNA-binding levels were 4.1, 12-27 (range), 120 pmoles/mg DNA respectively in mouse, human, and rat liver cells following AFB1 (3.3 microM) exposure for 20 h. Hepatocytes from the 3 animal species were unable to mediate mutation in the presence of 4 microM B[a]P; PAM activated B[a]P and effectively mediated mutation in the co-cultivated V79 cells. In contrast to results with hepatocytes, PAM failed to generate enough mutagenic metabolites of AFB1 (3.3 microM) and the mediation of mutations was seen only at very high concentration of DMN (80 mM). The genotoxic effects of the 3 carcinogens on hepatocytes from different species in vitro were in agreement with the in vivo animal experiments in that mice are relatively resistant to AFB1 carcinogenesis whereas rats are sensitive; B[a]P is not effective as a complete liver carcinogen in adult rat and mouse whereas DMN induces liver cancer.
